It's one of the world's most famous churches, over 800 years old, and had even survived the invasion from Hitler.

Ever wonder who the smartest ever people were? We all know about Einstein, but who else helped shape and influence our lives? This page lets you meet some of those people. Be sure to check this one out here: ____ __ __ ___ ____ ______ / __/ \ / | _ \ | _ \_ _| \__ \ , ^ , | _ \| _ / | | /____/_|\_/|_|_| \_|_| \_\ |_| -by Shel Silverstein World's Top Geniuses! http://www.shangralafamilyfun.com/geniuses.html --- ...Quite impressive! Thanks Linda! I checked for President Trump's IQ but only came up with unofficial IQ's - Most were saying he has a 156 IQ but I did see one that said he had a 145 IQ. Either way, he is at genius level - which is what one would expect from a president. Like the bible says... Prov. 2: [6] For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. Col.1 [9] For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 2 Tim.1: [7] For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. God is most logical and true. The crazy loons are not of God. :) Jer.10: [10] But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation. 1 John.5 [20] And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. ======================================================= >-->From SmileZilla: ,---,_ , _> `'-. .--'/ .--'` ._ `/ <_ >,-' ._'.. ..__ . ' '-. .-' .'` `'.

A: He was very thinkful. -<>- The new school librarian decided that instead of checking out children's books by writing the names of borrowers on the book cards herself, she would have the youngsters sign their own names. She would then tell them they were signing a "Contract" for returning the books on time. Her first customer was a second grader, who looked surprised to see a new librarian. He brought four books to the desk and shoved them across to the librarian, giving her his name as he did so. The librarian pushed the books back and told him to sign them out. The boy laboriously printed his name on each book card and then handed them to her with a look of utter disgust. Before the librarian could even start her speech he said, scornfully, "That other Librarian we had could write." -<>- >Laws The Law of Common Sense: Never accept a drink from a urologist.

First a computer randomly selects a few hundred citizens from the entire county to report for jury duty on a particular day. Then another computer assigns 40 of those present to a courtroom. Then the 40 names are placed into a drum, and a dozen names are pulled. During jury selection for one trial, the judge asked potential Juror No. 12 if there was any reason he could not be a fair and impartial juror. "There may be," he replied. "Juror No. 1 is my ex-wife, and if we were on the same jury, I guarantee we would not be able to agree on anything." Both were excused. -<>- >So Proud As one of relatively few female airline pilots, I've often been mistaken for a flight attendant, ticket agent or even a snack-bar employee. Occasionally people will see me in uniform and ask if I'm a "real" pilot. Still others congratulate me for making it in a male-dominated field. One day, I was in the restroom before a flight. I was at the sink, brushing my teeth, when a woman walked through the door and looked over at me. "My sister would be so proud of you!" she remarked. I figured her sister must be in the airline business, so I smiled and asked why. Replied the woman, "She's a dentist." -<>- >Bread A mess officer was bugged because too much bread was being left over. Some of the soldiers complained that it was too hard. The mess officer said, "If Napoleon's troops had that bread, they'd have eaten it down to the last crumb." A young soldier said, "I believe that, sir. But it was fresh then!" -<>- >Geraniums "I'm sorry," said the clerk in flower shop, "we don't have potted geraniums. Could you use African violets instead?" Replied the customer sadly, "No, it was geraniums my wife told me to water while she was gone." -<>- >Final Exam Miracle Just before the final exam in a college finance class, a less-than-stellar student approached the professor. "Can you tell me what grade I would need to get on the exam to pass the course?" he asked. The professor gave him the bad news. "The exam is worth 100 points. You would need 113 points to earn a D." "OK," he said. "And how many points would I need to get a C?" ========================================================= .-. .-. / \ / \ | _ \ / _ | ; | \ \ / / | ; \ \ \ \_.._/ / / / '. '.;' ';,' .'

They had only been aloft a few minutes when the elderly lady complained to the stewardess that her ears were popping. The girl smiled and gave the older woman some chewing gum, assuring her that many people experienced the same discomfort. When they landed in New York, Grandma thanked the stewardess. "The chewing gum worked fine," she said, "but tell me, how do I get it out of my ears?" ---------- A visitor from Holland was chatting with his American friend and was jokingly explaining about the red, white and blue in the Netherlands flag. "Our flag symbolizes our taxes," he said. "We get red when we talk about them, white when we get our tax bill, and blue after we pay them." "That's the same with us," the American said, "only we see stars, too" ---------- Realizing that the time had come for him to stop working so hard, an old blacksmith chose a strong young man to become his apprentice. The young man was full of questions and the old blacksmith was ill- tempered and exacting. "Don't ask me a lot of questions," grumbled the old man. "Just do whatever I tell you to do!" One day the old blacksmith took an iron out of the forge and laid it on the anvil. "Get the hammer over there," he snapped at the apprentice. "When I nod my head, hit it as hard as you can." The town is now looking for a new blacksmith. ---------- A brunette, who decided blondes really do have more fun, went to the salon to get a bleach job. When she got home, her husband admired her new blonde locks. "Thanks, honey," she said. "I hope you realize how much pain and suffering I had to go through to become a blonde." "Pain and suffering?" said her husband. "How much pain can there be in becoming a blonde?" "That was the easy part," said the new blonde. "What hurt was when they drilled the hole in my head and removed half my brain." ---------- A blonde pulls over at the petrol station, gets out of her car, opens the bonnet, and checks the engine oil. After a few seconds of intelligent thinking, she takes the dipstick in her hand and, raising her chest high, walks up to the attendant. "Excuse me sir, but can I buy a longer dipstick?" "May I ask why you need a longer one ma'am?" "Because this one isn't long enough to reach the oil!" ------- >The IRS and Grandpa The IRS decides to audit Grandpa, and summons him to the IRS office. The IRS auditor was not surprised when Grandpa showed up with his attorney. The auditor said, "Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no full-time employment, which you explain by saying that you win money gambling. I'm not sure the IRS finds that believable." "I'm a great gambler, and I can prove it," says Grandpa. "How about a demonstration?" The auditor thinks for a moment and says, "Okay. Go ahead." Grandpa says, "I'll bet you a thousand dollars that I can bite my own eye." The auditor thinks a moment and says, "It's a bet." Grandpa removes his glass eye and bites it. The auditor's jaw drops. Grandpa says, "Now, I'll bet you two thousand dollars that I can bite my other eye." Now the auditor can tell Grandpa isn't blind, so he takes the bet. Grandpa removes his dentures and bites his good eye. The stunned auditor now realizes he has wagered and lost three grand, with Grandpa's attorney as a witness. He starts to get nervous. "Want to go double or nothing?" Grandpa asks. "I'll bet you six thousand dollars that I can stand on one side of your desk, throw that full glass of water into the wastebasket on the other side, and never get a drop anywhere in between." The auditor, twice burned, is cautious now, but he looks carefully and decides there's no way this old guy could possibly manage that stunt, so he agrees again. Grandpa stands on the desk and takes careful aim, but when he throws the glass, water covers the man's desk, jacket, briefcase, and everything around it. The auditor leaps with joy, realizing that he has just turned a major loss into a huge win. But Grandpa's own attorney starts crying and puts his head in his hands. "Are you okay?" the auditor asks. "Not really," says the attorney. "This morning, when Grandpa told me he'd been summoned for an audit, he bet me twenty-five thousand dollars that he could come in here and throw water all over your office and that you'd be happy about it!" ------- >Tyrone Tyrone was having trouble in school. His teacher was always yelling at him, "You're driving me crazy, Tyrone. Can't you learn anything?" One day Tyrone's mother came to school to see how he was doing. The teacher told her honestly that her son was simply a disaster, getting very low marks, and that she had never had such an unmotivated and ignorant boy in her entire teaching career. Tyrone's mom, shocked at the feedback, withdrew her son from school and moved from Detroit, relocating to Cleveland. 25 years later, the teacher was diagnosed with irreversible cardiac disease. Her doctors all strongly advised her to have open heart surgery, which only one surgeon at the renowned Cleveland Clinic could perform. Left with no other options, the teacher decided to have the operation, which was remarkably successful. When she opened her eyes after the surgery she saw the handsome young doctor who headed her surgical team smiling down at her. She wanted to thank him, but could not talk. Her face started to turn blue, she raised her hand, trying to tell him something, but quickly died. The doctor was shocked, wondering what went wrong so suddenly. When the doctor turned around to leave the room, he saw Tyrone, now a janitor at the Clinic, had unplugged the life-support equipment in order to plug in his vacuum cleaner. If you thought that Tyrone had become a heart-surgeon, there is a good chance you voted for Hillary. ------- >TAXES - Sarah Sanders Some think the Press Secretary, Sarah Sanders, is one of the brightest people in the current administration. She also has a quick wit about her and if you doubt it then read below. It's got to be the answer of the year. During a recent press conference, a reporter with MSNBC hollered from the press corps, "Where is President Trump hiding his tax returns? " Press Secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, astutely responded, "We've found a very secure place and I'm certain they won't be found. "And just where is that?" said the reporter, sarcastically. Mrs. Sanders grinned sardonically and said, "They are underneath Obama's college records, his passport application, his immigration status as a student, his funding sources to pay for college, his college records, and his Selective Service registration.” --- ...LOL!

Thanks LouiseAu! ========================================================= _ / `\ _ / /\ \ / `\ / / \ \.-=-./ /\ \ \| | /\ /\ | \ \ | \o|o/ | |/ \_= _Y_ =_/ `) ^ (` .-`(>O<)`-. / / \ \ \_/ \_/ .-. | | .-. |oo \| |/ oo| \o \ /^\ / o/ jgs \___,' '.___/ >-->From HandyHints: A good bathroom cleaning routine should be more than a hard- surface wipe-down. Make your space a sanctuary of cleanliness by adopting a more rigorous process for disinfecting and cleaning. A little extra work now saves a lot of time and money in the long run. Let's start with this... It's easy to forget to dust your bathroom light fixtures, but so easy to do with the help of a microfiber cloth. With the light turned off (and the lightbulb cooled) use the cloth to clean the inside and outside of the fixture, as well as the surface of the bulb. If the light bulbs you use are a focal point (such as clear glass globes) remove the bulb from the fixture, clean the surface with glass cleaner, and allow it to dry completely before putting it back into the fixture. --- ...If you simply need to dust those vanity lights do as I do: While blow drying my hair, I put the hair dryer on low heat and full blow power and aim it at the lights and all around the fixture. Gives them a quick and easy dusting every couple of days making the time to actually have to do the hard clean of washing them with a glass cleaner further on down the road. -<>- >Is your showerhead due for a cleaning? Mineral deposits in water can affect the showerhead and even shorten its life. Keep the jets in the nozzle clear and clean by misting the showerhead every week with a mixture of 50 percent white vinegar and 50 percent water. Allow it to sit and drip for a few minutes and then wipe it clean with a dry cloth. -<>- >Don't forget to clean the toilet base During the next toilet scrub-down, consider which areas you focus on most. The bowl, seat, lid, and top of the tank are the highly visible spots, but the underside of the bowl and the plumbing piping behind the toilet gets dusty and affected by germs too. To sanitize hard-to-reach places behind the toilet, try using a steam wand to disinfect and then wipe down using a dry cloth. -<>- Adding a plant or a bouquet of fresh flowers is an easy way to instantly make any room feel more well cared-for. That's why it's a common staging trick used by real estate agents and a styling trick for magazine photo shoots. Plus, some plants don't just make the room look clean, but certain varieties actually purify the air. Fresh flowers also help make a room appear more polished. Plus, the light floral scent will give your home a wonderful aroma. -<>- Save Some Time And Money: Unless you are baking cakes and cookies, there really is no need to wait for the oven to preheat and come to temperature. Casseroles, meatloaves and like that need an hour or more of cooking time can be popped right in, saving you time and energy. And turn off the oven 10 minutes before the food is finished--the residual heat will get the job done! -<>- AGAIN - Save Time And Money: Studies show that most people pre-rinse dishes before loading them into the dishwasher. Modern dishwashers - certainly those purchased within the last 5 to 10 years do a superb job of cleaning even heavily soiled dishes. Don't be tempted to pre-rinse dishes before loading; simply scrape off any food and empty liquids and let the dishwasher do the rest. This will save you time as well as water and energy. If you find you must rinse dishes first, get in the habit of using cold water. -<>- 'Go Green' Hints: Save on Gas Ride your bike or walk when possible. If you are using your car, combine errands to save on gas. If you are heading to an appointment or the grocery store, think what other stops you could make while heading in that direction. It's amazing how those little changes can add up to big savings! ----- Make your own bathroom cleaner We've been over this before, as there are so many reasons to make your own cleaning products. It's safer (scroll down for the truth about toxic chemicals in store-bought bathroom cleaners), it lessens your chemical exposure, it's better for the environment, and it's SO easy and actually fun to do. This entire homemade bathroom cleaner recipe cost me a whopping $1.29 to make. Compare that to most store-bought bathroom cleaners, which average around $10 per bottle. Take a look: - water (FREE!!) - baking soda (I paid $6.39 for 16 ounces, but I only used 1/2 an ounce = $0.20) - white vinegar (I paid $11.67 for 128 ounces, but I only used 4 ounces = $0.36) - castile soap (I paid $20 for 30 ounces, but I only used 1 ounce = $0.67) - essential oils; I recommend tea tree oil (I paid $12.50 for 4 ounces, but I only used .02 ounces = $0.06) Did I mention this recipe takes less than 2 minutes to make? Once again, it's as simple as pour, stir, spray and that's it. Seriously. 3 steps, and the last one is the actual act of cleaning. ======================================================= >-->In The Worldly News: Justice With Judge Jeanine 4/13/19 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DS5fBz6kJw Sean Hannity 4/12/19 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRnNf8uJUGo The Ingraham Angle 4/12/19| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuIEemHT2ak Over 10K illegal immigrants living in the U.S. from terrorist-sponsored countries https://tinyurl.com/y5ae47ub BORDER PATROL UNION PRESIDENT SAYS IT’S ‘ABSOLUTELY LEGAL’ TO DROP ILLEGALS IN SANCTUARY CITIES https://tinyurl.com/y48bva3e Kids Magazine Celebrates Abortion https://tinyurl.com/yym4q46z FLASHBACK: Hillary Suggested Droning WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange https://tinyurl.com/yyp3utru Shadow Governments and the Bilderberg Group https://tinyurl.com/y26v7cda Westwing News: Democrats, As Usual, Were Wrong on Trump’s Tax Cuts https://www.whitehouse.gov/westwingreads/ WhiteHouseNews: https://www.whitehouse.gov/1600daily/ Latest From AFA: http://tinyurl.com/j7lakqw Students For Life https://tinyurl.com/yd5nxmu6 Latest From OperationRescue: http://www.operationrescue.org/ Latest Product Alert: Beef, Pork, Melon http://www.emergencyemail.org/products/?fmt=text Latest Health Alert: Mystery E. coli Source Found, CDC Says http://www.emergencyemail.org/health/?fmt=text -<>- >From BizarreNews: There are lots of ways to be philanthropic. You could give money to a charitable organization, donate your time, donate your skills, work in a soup kitchen, volunteer for Habitat for Humanity, donate blood, foster a child. Probably the worst way you could think of would be to hand out cash to drunks early in the morning to pay for meals in front of a Waffle House. In Florida. But for some unexplained reason this is exactly what 41- year-old Craig Brewer decided to do, and somebody got upset because they felt like they were being left out. And it didn't end well for Brewer. Police arrested Ezekiel Hicks, 25, on murder charges early Sunday in the death of Brewer, who was shot and killed at a Waffle House, in Gainesville, Florida, just a few miles west of the University of Florida. The good Samaritan was handing out $20 bills to pay for meals, according to police. Officials with the Alachua County Sheriff's Office said the restaurant's surveillance camera captured an altercation between the two on video. Witnesses said the victim was arguing with a female acquaintance of the suspect, who was reportedly upset because Brewer's generosity didn't include her. Hicks intervened and got into a physical altercation with the victim, police said. At one point, Hicks left the Waffle House and retrieved a 9mm Glock pistol, which was later recovered at the scene, according to the sheriff's office. The altercation "lasted only a few seconds" and ended with Hicks firing multiple shots towards the victim's head, killing him on the scene, the sheriff's office said. Hicks was arrested in the parking lot, where he admitted to shooting Brewer, according to the sheriff's office. -<>- You just don't see this kind of thing happening very often in many other states, but in Florida it seems to be fairly common. With spring temperatures in the upper seventies to the lower eighties, and a certain relaxed attitude toward decorum, I am not surprised to read about three teenage girls showering naked together at a roadside rest area. But I was a little surprised at the high speed car chase that followed. You would think a ticket, or even a stern warning would be enough, but it did not end that well for these three, free-spirited young ladies. Police say a witness reported that three naked women were at an Interstate 75 rest stop Wednesday morning, and that "all three of them" were "standing in the nude putting on suntan lotion." When a Florida Highway Patrol trooper arrived at the rest stop, the naked women explained that they had simply been "air drying" in the nude after showering. One woman said that the trio had spent the night at the rest area after leaving a local residence "due to an altercation." With no bathing facilities available, they opted for a shower on a lawn. A trooper noted that a case of water and a bottle of soap was on the ground next to the suspects. Before the officer could complete her investigation, however, the trio jumped into their Nissan Sentra and drove off on the highway. The car was subsequently tracked to the parking lot of a convenience store that the trio--now apparently clothed-- had entered. When a trooper sought to arrest one of the women leaving the store, the driver of the Nissan allegedly tried to strike him with the vehicle. At that point, another woman exited the car with a pink baseball bat and approached the trooper, prompting another officer to ram the Nissan. The car drove away, prompting another police chase. The Nissan was finally brought to a stop using road spike strips. But the women still refused to exit the vehicle. Police had to break a window and taser the girls before they were taken into custody. Investigators identified the car's driver as Oasis Shakira McLeod, 18, and the passengers as Jeniyah McLeod and Cecilia Eunique Young, both 19. The women were charged with fleeing to elude, resisting arrest, aggravated assault, indecent exposure, and marijuana possession. The younger McLeod was also hit with a DUI count. --- ...Wow! Stupid is as stupid does - they would have only been facing 'indecent exposure' had they not acted so badly! *--- The Mississippi Mashed Potato Mystery ---* Residents of a Mississippi neighborhood are trying to get to the bottom of an unusual mystery -- someone has been leaving mashed potatoes in various locations. Neighbors in the Belhaven area of Jackson said they been finding plates of mashed potatoes in locations including porches, mailboxes and on top of vehicles. "This neighborhood does a lot of quirky things, we decorate road signs, we put Christmas trees in our potholes, so it's not surprising at all, that's why I love this neighborhood, because they do so many strange things, but it's definitely one of the weirdest things I've seen since living in Jackson," resident Jordan Lewis, who found mashed potatoes on her car, told local news. Residents said they have yet to uncover the motive behind the apparent prank. "Some people were thinking maybe the mashed potatoes were poisoned to kill animals. I didn't taste it, I have a 3-second rule, so I didn't touch it but some people were worried," said Sebastian Bjernegard, who found a plate of potatoes on his doorstep. Neighbors said they have not involved the police since the prank appears to be harmless. *--- Doctors Find Bees Living In Woman's Eyelid ---* A Taiwan woman suffering from a swollen eye went to a hospital where doctors found four minuscule bees living under her eyelid. Hung Chi-ting, the head of the ophthalmology department at Taiwan's Fooyin University Hospital, said he noticed what looked like insect legs under the woman's left eyelid and used a microscope to discover she had sweat bees, also known as halictidae, living next to her eye. The woman, identified by the surname He, said she thinks the insects blew into her eye while visiting a relative's grave. Sweat bees are known to nest near graves and fallen trees. Hung said the woman was found to be suffering from bacterial skin infection cellulitis and severe corneal erosion. Doctors said the insects were still alive and apparently survived by feeding on the woman's tears. *--- Australia: Drunk Man Ate Beer Bottle ---* Australian authorities said a man was hospitalized after he drunkenly ate a glass beer bottle during a family gathering. Northern Territory Police Superintendent Louise Jorgensen said police received an emergency call just after 9 p.m. about a man at a family gathering in Wagaman who chewed and swallowed a glass beer bottle "and then went for a lie down." "His family then called police and St. John [Ambulance], and he was taken to Royal Darwin Hospital," Jorgensen said. Jorgensen said the call was one of 500 made to police between 3 p.m. and 11 p.m. She said drunken hijinks such as the bottle-eating man are a drain on police resources. "People are dismayed when we can't respond to their jobs immediately, but this is why -- because of all these other jobs that are coming in," she said. "Most of them are domestics, or anti- social and drunk behavior." *--- Mr. Bubble ---* A North Carolina man achieved his seventh Guinness World Records title by putting 13 people inside soap bubbles in 30 seconds. Guinness confirmed Steven Langley of Huntersville set the record for putting the most number of people in soap bubbles in 30 seconds. Langley, a performer with The Soap Bubble Circus, set his first record in 2011, when he broke the record for most paddle balls controlled simultaneously by a person -- seven -- during an appearance on live TV in Italy. The performer's other records include the longest hanging chain of soap bubbles, at 35, and most people making bubbles with garland wands simultaneously, at 317. ========================================================= . . | , \ ' / ` ,-.

The third, a California surgeon, says: "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside of them is in alphabetical order."

(O) LGB Cletus is passing by Billy Bob's hay barn one day when, through a gap in the door, he sees Billy Bob doing a strip- tease in front of an old John Deere tractor. Butt clenched, he performs a slow pirouette, and gently slides off the right strap of his overalls, followed by the left. He then hunches his shoulders forward and in a classic striptease move, lets his overalls fall down to his hips, revealing a torn and frayed plaid shirt. Then, grabbing both sides of his shirt, he rips it apart to reveal his stained T-shirt underneath. With a final flourish, he tears the T-shirt from his body, and hurls his baseball cap onto a pile of hay. Having seen enough, Cletus rushes in and says, "What the world're ya doing, Billy Bob?" "Good grief, Cletus, ya scared the bejeebers out of me," says an obviously embarrassed Billy Bob.

In an effort to help outsiders understand the Midwest, the following list will be handed to each driver entering the state: 1. That farm boy standing next to the feed bin did more work before breakfast than you do all week at the gym. 2. It's called a 'gravel road.' No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on your Navigator. I have a four wheel drive because I need it, not just to keep up with the neighbors. 3. We all started hunting and fishing when we were seven years old. Yeah, we saw Bambi. We got over it. 4. Any references to "corn fed" when talking about our women will get you whipped - by our women. 5. Go ahead and bring your $600 Orvis Fly Rod. Don't cry to us if a flathead catfish breaks it off at the handle. We have a name for those little trout you fish for: bait. 6. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot. 7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of mallards are making their final approach, we will shoot it. You might hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time. 8. That's right. Whiskey is only two bucks. We can buy a fifth for what you pay for one drink at the airport. 9. No, there's no "Vegetarian Special" on the menu. Order steak. Order it rare. Or, you can order the Chef Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey. 10. You bring Coke into my house, it better be brown, wet, and served over ice. 11. So you have a sixty-thousand dollar car you drive on weekends. We're real impressed. We have quarter of a million dollar combines that we use two weeks a year. 12. Let's get this straight. We have one stoplight in town. We stop when it's red. We may even stop when it's yellow. 13. Our women hunt, fish, and drive pickups, trucks and tractors because they want to. So, you're a feminist. Isn't that cute. 14. Yeah, we eat catfish. Carp, too, and turtle. You really want sushi and caviar? It's available at the bait shop. 15. They are pigs. That's what they smell like. Get over it. Don't like it? Interstates 70, 80, & 90 go East & West; Interstates 29, 35 & 55 go North & South. Pick one and use it accordingly. 16. The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season. It's a religious holiday. You can get breakfast at the church. 17. So every person in every pickup waves. It's called being friendly. Understand the concept? 18. Yeah, we have golf courses. Don't hit in the water hazard. It spooks the fish. 19. That Highway Patrol Officer who just pulled you over for driving like an idiot - his name is "Sir", no matter how old he is. Now please, enjoy your visit. Just don't overdo your stay, we have corn to plant. ========================================================= >-->THE FIRST EASTER BUNNY... by Francine M.
