Hi everyone

I guess there are not too many visitors anymore...

But being that we got internet in our house I decided to surf the web and after days of trying I finally remembered my username and password. hurray!!

Here is some pictures of our family enjoying the holiday of lights.

3 things to ponder

1. Cows
2. The Constitution
3. The Ten Commandments

Cows -
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a single cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington? And they track her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.

The Constitution -
They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not using it anymore.

The Ten Commandments -
The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this: You
cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery", and "Thou Shalt Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment

That's all.

I don't like to ponder too long.

It makes me nervous.

You remember those silly facts under Snapple caps? Oh there still around! There was one that got me thinking; “The average person sits in traffic for 2 years of his/her life!” we are also asleep for 1/3 of our life considering that there’s 24 hours in a day and on average you sleep for 8 hours.
Gosh that means that when you hit 30 you’ve been sleeping for 10 years! And that’s if you’re sleeping ONLY 8 hours a night :)
Then there are times when you’re awake but you’re not doing anything so you’re kinda sleeping.
Every month I spend two days or more on the train that means that in a year I’m on the train for 1 month or 576 hours awake, but doing nothing. So when they say that ‘life is so short’ I think it means that throughout our day-to-day activity or lack there of these minutes hours months and years are being counted up as being part of our active life.
Back to the numbers by the time you’re 50 you spent 1 year in traffic, 3 years just getting to work, approx. 6,000 hours eating breakfast, 7,500 hours in the shower, been sleeping for 15 years! So with all those numbers put together this person is only active for about 32.365 years.

Just a thought.
