He got up to find out the cause and found a glass plate had come out of a closed cupboard door and smashed on the floor in the kitchen. No explanation how. No intruder, his doors all locked up, totally sure he never left the plate on the edge of his counter. Mystery. My own experiences -years ago i'd seen my doctor to get a form, a statement that would qualify me for disability. I took the paper home and put it in the top drawer of a desk. Later to make the appointment to see my social worker with the document I opened the desk drawer: no paper. I searched the other drawers and around the room; it had totally disappeared. I did find it some time -months later in one of the lower drawers. Mystery. Another time early this year I got my income tax slips in the mail I put put them on top my pile of papers in a chest of dra... less

It's not even close.

And they have been a band all along!Yeah, I feel like an idiot but, at the moment, I'm a pretty happy idiot!

If I have at least two spare, I don't; otherwise I would. But I must say I wear tights only at very, very formal occasions, particularly when I am in Western dress.

If ya got a head still attached to the torso you feel it right? Well the bighearted orderer said to behead FIRST then dismember then dissolve in acid whatever was left. Maybe he did. Maybe he didn't. Everyone says so. We'll see what happens. In a certain period of time. I will never lie to you.

Dear Bill,
When I walked into this office just now I felt the same sense of wonder and respect that I felt four years ago. I know you will feel that, too.
I wish you great happiness here. I never felt the loneliness some Presidents have described.
There will be very tough times, made even more difficult by criticism you may not think is fair. I’m not a very good one to give advice, but just don’t let the critics discourage you or push you off course.
You will be our president when you read this note. I wish you well. I wish your family well.
Your success now is our country’s success. I am rooting hard for you.
Good Luck — George

Oftentimes, I don't know the person at all; I've just read something they've written or learned about a project they've worked on and would like to either include a direct quote or talk to them. I'm kind of all over the map on whether I get any kind of response at all, let alone whether the other party agrees. I haven't found any kind of technique that increases buy-in. With my latest one, I needed to talk to doctors, so I wrote to several whom I know personally. Only one bothered to write back and decline. The rest didn't even do that much. It doesn't bother me so much when I don't know the person, but these were people I knew in real life that I've worked with before, so I found the lack of response rather bothersome. Is that normal for this kind of letter, even if you know the person you're talking to? I'm basically offering them free PR, so it's hard for me to understand why they wouldn't rep... less

D'ya really think Texas would convict a white anything man or woman for murdering a black anyone man or woman? Maybe this is just a buncha hooey window dressing crap to put lipstick on that pig. If she walks then we know it was all for nothing. If she gets to spend the rest of her miserable worthless life in prison maybe even Texas knows shameful and racist when they see it. As the great you know whom sez constantly. "We'll see what happens". Everyone says so. We are looking at that. In a period of time I will let you know. Everyone sez so. SIGH. :( less
