2012 Walkabout


It seems the new year has begun its' walkabout and requires new shoes
to protect its' feet. lol
The shoes it chooses to wear will reflect on how well a job it does.

The year predicts a hard economic trudge uphill, which is kinda scary and kinda exciting depending on what stage of life you are in.

But if we in North America, are anything at all, it is people who dig in and go for it.

I listen to the news now with different ears.
You cannot believe anything they tell you
or say anything if you expect people to believe.
The advertising is full of unbelievable notions and falsehoods to buy products which do not work.
So it is important to choose wisely things you need as opposed to fantasies.

We have a scientist who said there is probably life out there in the universe but we can't see it
and as a result, many have lost their faith in science.
Scientific formulas which are good for our system of life and depended upon to be true, do not apply past a certain, very complicated process. There is so much we still do not know and this is why man still has hope and believes in a higher force and intelligence governing over us.

But instead of losing faith in science, we must still push forward to discover more.
One day man might be able to evolve into a modern entity which will not require as much food and will use the energy around him to survive.
It would resolve a lot of the worlds problems today and we need to forge forward
into the universe to learn more about such things.
Man is about learning and growing.
I believe man receives intelligence from a higher source.
It is given to him as the needs increase and it comes from no one source
so as to humble man and keep him equal to another.

Schools need to push towards science and math to make it interesting for kids to want more of it.
We have the opportunity to make this years' walk about a productive one but it requires
selflessness, self discipline and a desire to succeed.

My little New Year needs new shoes
I guess I better start making it a pair :)


Have a great day Every one
and
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Sweet Age Comes With Chocolate

Lady of Chocolate - Painting done with espresso and water.

Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell me a falsehood anyway!
-but the Hershey Man will know!

YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute.
Work this out as you read.
Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!
This is not one of those waste-of-time things. It's fun.

1. First of all, pick the # of times a week that you would like to have chocolate (more than once but less than 10).

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator.

5. If you've already had your birthday this year add 1759.
If you haven't, add 1758.

6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.

You should have a three digit number.

The first digit of this was your original number
(i.e. how many times you want chocolate each week).

The next two numbers are:

YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is !!!!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2009) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS.
