I HAVE NOW SOLD 3 PAINTING AND PRINT IN THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS
I GUESS THAT MAKES ME A PROFESSIONAL ARTIST ONLY 50 years AFTER LEAVING ART SCHOOL
THERE IS HOPE FOR US ALL YET
Makes sense to me.
It's late fall and the Indians on a remote reservation in South Dakota asked their new chief if the coming winter was going to be cold or mild.
Since he was a chief in a modern society, he had never been taught the old secrets. When he looked at the sky, he couldn't tell what the winter was going to be like.
Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he told his tribe that the winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members of the village should collect firewood to be prepared.
But, being a practical leader, after several days, he got an idea. He went to the phone booth, called the National Weather Service and asked, 'Is the coming winter going to be cold?'
'It looks like this winter is going to be quite cold,' the meteorologist at the weather service responded.
So the chief went back to his people and told them to collect even more firewood in order to be prepared.
A week later, he called the National Weather Service again. 'Does it still look like it is going to be a very cold winter?'
'Yes,' the man at National Weather Service again replied, 'it's going to be a very cold winter.'
The chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collect every scrap of firewood they could find.
Two weeks later, the chief called the National Weather Service again. 'Are you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?'
'Absolutely,' the man replied. 'It's looking more and more like it is going to be one of the coldest winters we've ever seen.'
'How can you be so sure?' the chief asked.
The weatherman replied, 'The Indians are collecting firewood like crazy.'
Remember this story whenever you get advice from a government official!

I bet you expected some guy with a guitar.
]]>We are here to 'LIVE' nothing more and nothing less. We do not have to prove anything. We do not have to succed at anything. We do not have to excel at anything. We do not have to win a race. We do not have to liveup to others expectations. We do not have to have targets. We have to 'Live' that is why we are here. Now some of us may choose to be rich and work all our lives mking money and having the finest things that money can buy. Some of us may strive to be great sportsmen and women, winning aclaim and medals. Some of us may want to be recognised as 'celebraties' or to be famous for some work or deed. But at the end of the day how you live and what you do with your life i entirely up to you and no one else. You make your choice and take the rewards and the consequenses equally. At the final moment of your life you will have done exactly what you were put upon the Earth for.. You will have 'LIVED.
I intend to 'LIVE' for many more quiet years.
Bless you all spiritbird
BRITISH VERSION
Send me your beggars and vagabonds
You unwanted masses after a freebee
The unruly, unlawful and illegals camped upon you shore
Send the thieves and con men and people traffickers
And we will feed them and cloth them and house them and give them freedom to import their traditions and religions and laws and demand their "human rights" at the expense of the nation
give them asylum in Turkey, Greece and France first
One's in a bit of a flap
And the other's got fly away hair
A right pair of B-B-Butteflies

Where have all the bloggers gone
Long time nothing
Where have all the bloggers gone
All gone away
We used to have a lot of fun
With our comments everyone
It seems there's no one there
I think I'll pack it in
Where have all the bloggers gone
Long time nothing
Where have all the bloggers gone
On holiday?
No one's reading anymore
Got blank pages by the score
It seems a wast of time
I think I'll pack it in
Where have all the bloggers gone
Long time nothing
Where have all the bloggers gone
All my old friends
It is all a mystery
Lack of interest could it be?
Perhaps you'll let me know
If I should pack it in.
DON'T ASK ME
I'M ALWAYS WRONG
SORRY I AM NOT ALLOWED
TO MAKE MY MIND UP
I AM NOT THINKING
IT'S NOT ALLOWED
IF THERE IS A BETTER WAY OF DOING IT
THE WIFE WILL KNOW IT
THE LAST TIME I GOT SOMETHING RIGHT
I WAS SINGLE
I AM NOT HENPECKED
OUCH!
Add your own
