The information below I received just now in e-mail –  *** IT has Been checked and it is
CORRECT! *** – it just might be your time (or your wife’s  ( or girlfriend) ) to have
a Mammogram done and without asking you might not know) — and I would
rather get it out so YOU have a voice to ASK!

Precautions re Mammograms and Dental XRays/ A Useful Warning
A wife sent me this:
 
On Wednesday there was a TV segment on the fastest growing cancer in women, thyroid cancer. It was a very interesting program that mentioned that the increase could possibly be related to the use of dental x-rays and mammograms. On the apron/shield the dental tech places over your upper body during dental x-rays there is a little flap that can be lifted up and wrapped around your neck. Many dentists don’t even bother to use it. Also, there is something called a “thyroid guard” for use during mammograms.
 
By coincidence, I had my yearly mammogram yesterday. I felt a little silly, but I asked about the guard and sure enough, the technician had one in a drawer. I asked why it wasn’t routinely used. Answer: “I don’t know. You have to ask for it.” Well, if I hadn’t seen the show, how would I have known to ask?
 
I hope you pass this on to your friends and family.

Take a good look at the sign he is holding!

Ok all you fighters for illegal immigrants‘ rights. Here is one of the

reasons we have a problem with it. As the ones that have to pay for the

welfare of these immigrants,depriving the natural citizens.

One of the several reasons the U . S . A . is falling apart.

A guy is out with his buddies. He has a
few drinks, gets in the mood but true to
his wife, goes home.

When he gets home he finds her sound
asleep in bed with her mouth wide open.
He gets two aspirin and drops them into
her mouth.

Of course, she chokes but recovers and
asks, “What did you put in my mouth??”

He says, “Two aspirin”.

She replies, “BUT I DON’T HAVE A HEADACHE”!!!   

He says, “That’s just what I wanted to hear.”

Mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee

A photo of a cup of coffee.

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle,
when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and
the 2 cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some
items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a
very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf
balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it
was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured
them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into
the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again
if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it
into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked
once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous
“yes.”
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under
the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively
filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
“Now,” said the professor as the laughter subsided, “I want
you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are
the important things— your family, your health, your friends and your
favorite passions—and if everything else was lost and only they
remained , your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job,
your house and your car.
The sand is everything else—the small stuff. “If you put
the sand into the jar first,” he continued, ” there is no room for the
pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all
your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for
the things that are important to you.
“Pay attention to the things that are critical to your
happiness. Play with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit
with grandparents. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse
out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the
house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first—the
things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the
coffee represented. The professor smiled. “I’m glad! you asked.
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life
may seem, there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a
friend.”

Did I Read That Sign Right?

OLD TIMER SEX

MothersHeart2 Comments

 

This is too funny to be dirty – enjoy!

 
The husband leans over and asks his wife,’Do you remember the first time we had sex together over  fifty years ago?
We went behind the village tavern where you leaned against the back fence and I made love to you.’ 

‘Yes’, she says, ‘I remember it well.’ 

‘OK,’ he says, ‘How about taking a stroll around there again and we can do it for old time‘s sake?’ 

‘Oh Jim, you old devil, that sounds like a crazy, but good idea!’ 

A police officer sitting in the next booth heard their conversation and, having a chuckle to himself, he thinks, I’ve got to see these two old-timers having sex against a fence. I’ll just keep an eye on them so there’s no trouble. 

So he follows them. 

The elderly couple walks haltingly along, leaning on each other for support aided by walking sticks..Finally,they get to the back of the tavern and make their way to the fence..

The old lady lifts her skirt and the old man drops his trousers.

As she leans against the fence, the old man moves in..Then suddenly they erupt into the most furious sex that the policeman has ever seen..

This goes on for about ten minutes while both are making loud noises     and moaning and screaming. Finally,they both collapse, panting on the ground.

The policeman is amazed.He thinks he has learned something about life and old age that he didn’t know.

After about half an hour of lying on the ground recovering,

the old couple struggles to their feet and puts their clothes back on.

The policeman, is still watching and thinks to himself, this is truly amazing, I’ve got to ask them what their secret is.

So, as the couple passes, he says to them,’Excuse me, but that was something else. You must’ve had a fantastic sex life together. Is there some sort of secret to this?’

Shaking, the old man is barely able to reply,’Fifty years ago that wasn’t an electric fence.

Bill Cosby Has Done It Again

There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
Please use in that order.
Bill Cosby has a great way of “distilling” things. 
Looks like he’s done it again!   

AMERICA NEEDS A CANDIDATE WITH THIS PLATFORM!!

 

I  HAVE DECIDED TO BECOME A WRITE-IN CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT IN THE YEAR 2012..        

  

 HERE IS MY PLATFORM:

(1). Any use of the phrase: ‘Press 1 for English‘  is immediately BANNED!!!.    English  is  the official language;  speak it or wait outside of our borders until you can.

(2). We will immediately go into a two–year isolationist  attitude in order to straighten out the greedy big business posture in this country. America will allow NO imports,  and we’ll do no exports.     We will use the ‘Wal-Mart ‘s policy, 
‘If  we  ain’t got it, you don’t need it.’ We’ll make it here and sell it here!

(3). When imports are allowed, there will be a 100% import tax on it coming in here.

(4). All retired military personnel will be required to man one of the many observation towers located on the southern border of the United States  (six month tour). They will be under strict orders not  to fire on  SOUTH BOUND  aliens.

(5). Social Security will immediately return to its original state.   If you didn’t put nuttin in, you AIN’T getting nuttin out.  Neither the President nor any other politician will be able to touch it.

(6). Welfare. — Checks will be handed out on Fridays, at the end of the 40–hour school week, the successful completion of a urinalysis test for drugs, and passing grades.

(7). Professional Athletes — Steroids?  The FIRST time you check positive you’re banned from sports … for life!

(8). Crime — We will adopt the Turkish method,  i.e.,  the  first  time you steal,  you lose your right hand.  There is no more ‘life sentences’.  If convicted of murder, you will be put to death by the same method you chose for the victim you killed: gun, knife, strangulation,  etc.

(9). One export of ours will be allowed: wheat; because the world needs to eat.  However, a bushel of wheat will be the EXACT price of a barrel of oil.

(10).  All foreign aid, using American taxpayer money, will immediately cease and the saved money will help to pay off the national debt and, ultimately, lower taxes.  When disasters occur around the world, we’ll ask The American People if they want to donate to a disaster fund, and each citizen can make the decision as to whether, or not, it’s a worthy cause.

(11). The Pledge of Allegiance will  be said  EVERY day at school and  every day in CONGRESS.

(12). The National Anthem  will  be played at all appropriate ceremonies,  sporting events,  outings, etc.

My apology is offered if I’ve stepped on anyone’s toes …. nevertheless…..

GOD BLESS AMERICA !

Sincerely,  Bill Cosby 
  

  

  

  

  

 

Please forward this to everyone you know, no matter which side of the fence they’re on.   


When God takes something from your grasp, He’s not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.

PUBLIC HOUSING

MothersHeartLeave a comment

PUBLIC HOUSING:

The problem with public housing is that the residents are not the owners.
The people that live in the house did not earn the house, but were loaned the property from the true owners, the taxpayers. Because of this, the residents do not have the “pride of ownership” that comes with the hard work necessary. In fact, the opposite happens and the residents resent their benefactors because the very house is a constant reminder that they themselves did not earn the right to live in the house. They do not appreciate the value of the property and see no need to maintain or respect it in any way.

The result is the same whether you are talking about a studio apartment or a magnificent mansion full of priceless antiques. If the people who live there do not feel they earned the privilege, they will make this known through their actions. The picture below illustrates the point.

 
The Resolute Desk was built from the timbers of the HMS Resolute
and was a gift from Queen Victoria  to President Rutherford B. Hayes.
It is considered a national treasure and icon of the Presidency.

Mr. Obama, with all due respect, get your f#####g feet off our desk!

2 DUCK HUNTERS IN WISCONSIN

MothersHeartLeave a comment

 

Whether this is a TRUE story or not (as in according to Snopes) ! I don’t care …. the ‘story’ is funny and gives me a laugh that I received in a e-mail.  As they say ….LAUGHTER is the best medicine!

*********************************************

2 DUCK HUNTERS IN WISCONSIN
 
ABSOLUTELY A TRUE STORY HEARD ON A WISCONSIN RADIO STATION REPORTING ON THE INCIDENT.

A guy buys a new Lincoln Navigator for $42,500.00 with monthly payments of $560.00. He and a friend go duck hunting in upper Wisconsin . It’s mid-winter; and of course all of the lakes are frozen. These two guys go
out on the ice with their GUNS, a DOG, and of course the new NAVIGATOR They decide they want to make a natural looking open water area for the ducks to focus on, something for the decoys to float on.
 
Now making a hole in the ice large enough to invite a passing duck, is going to take a little more power than the average drill auger can produce. So, out of the back of the new Navigator comes a stick of dynamite with a short 40 second-fuse.
 
Our two Rocket Scientists, afraid they might slip on the ice while trying to run away after lighting the fuse (and becoming toast, along with the Navigator), decide on the following course of action: they light the 40 second fuse; then, with a mighty thrust, they throw the stick of dynamite as far away as possible.
 
Remember a couple of paragraphs back when I mentioned the NAVIGATOR, the GUNS, and the DOG…? Let’s talk about the dog: A highly trained Black Lab used for RETRIEVING; especially things thrown by the owner. You guessed it, The dog takes off across the ice at a high rate of speed and grabs the stick of dynamite, with the burning 40-second fuse, just as it hits the ice.
 
The two men swallow, blink, start waving their arms and, with veins in their necks swelling to resemble stalks of rhubarb, scream and holler at the dog to stop. The dog, now apparently cheered on by his master, keeps
coming. One hunter panics, grabs the shotgun and shoots the dog. The shotgun is loaded with #8 bird shot, hardly big enough to stop a Black Lab.
 
The dog stops for a moment, slightly confused, then continues on. Another shot, and this time the dog, still standing, becomes really confused and of course terrified, thinks these two geniuses have gone insane.
 
The dog takes off to find cover, UNDER the brand new Navigator.
 
The men continue to scream as they run. The red hot exhaust pipe on the truck touches the dog’s rear end; he yelps, drops the dynamite under the truck and takes off after his master.
 
Then KA BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
 
The truck is blown to bits and sinks to the bottom of the lake, leaving the two idiots standing there with ‘I can’t believe this just happened’ looks on their faces.
 
The insurance company says that sinking a vehicle in a lake by illegal use of explosives is NOT COVERED by the policy. And he still had yet to make
the first of those $560.00 a month payments.
 
The dog is okay….doing fine.
 
And you thought all Rednecks lived in the South…….

Ricotta Cheese Cookies

MothersHeartLeave a comment

 

This much-loved cookie recipe is quick, easy, delicious, and pretty. You can’t go wrong!

Makes about 100

For the cookies:
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
1 (15 ounce) container of ricotta cheese
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 cups all-purpose flour

For the glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
milk
sprinkles

Preheat oven to 350 F. Mix all of the cookie ingredients well until the dough sticks together into a big ball. It will be sticky. Drop by teaspoonfulls on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes or until the bottoms turn golden brown. Let cool for 1 minute and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. In a small saucepan slowly stir milk into the powdered sugar until it creates a glaze thin enough to be spread over the cookies. Stir over low heat then spread over cooled cookies. Quickly top with sprinkles.

Note: Photo donated by the American Dairy Association. Many people write to ask if there is an error in the recipe because there are no eggs. This is an eggless recipe, no eggs are required.

Die on the same day and they both go
Before an Angel to find out if they’ll be admitted to Heaven.
Unfortunately, there’s only one space left that day,
So the Angel must decide which of them gets in.
The Angel asks Dolly if there’s some particular
Reason why she should go to Heaven.

Dolly takes off her top and says, ‘Look at these, they’re the most perfect breasts God ever created,
And I’m sure it will please God to be able to see them every day, for eternity.’
The Angel thanks Dolly, and asks Her Majesty the same question. The Queen takes a bottle of Perrier out of her purse, drinks it down.

 

Then, wees into a toilet and pulls the lever.

 The Angel says, ‘OK, your Majesty, you may go in.’
Dolly is outraged and asks, ‘What was that all about?
I show you two of God’s own perfect creations and you turn me down. She wees into a toilet and she gets in!
Would you explain that to me?’
‘Sorry, Dolly,’ says the Angel, ‘but even in Heaven,

POOF and the light goes off

MothersHeartLeave a comment

 

A 72-year-old man goes for a physical. All of his tests come
back with normal results. The doctor says, ‘Jerry, everything
looks great. How are you doing mentally and emotionally?
Are you at peace with God?’

Jerry replies, ‘God and I are tight. He knows I have poor eyesight,
so he’s fixed it for when I get up in the middle of the night to go
to the bathroom, *poof*!, the light goes on. When I’m done,
*poof*!, the light goes off.’

‘Wow, that’s incredible,’ the doctor says.

A little later in the day, the doctor calls Jerry’s wife.
‘ Ginger ,’ he says, ‘Jerry is doing fine but I had to call you
because I’m in awe of his relationship with God. Is it true that
he gets up during the night and *poof *!, the light goes on in
the bathroom, and when he’s done, *poof*!the light goes off?’

‘OH MY GOD!’ Ginger exclaims.  ‘He’s peeing in the fridge again!!!!’

There were 33 Chilean miners trapped in that mine.  They were found in the 33rd week of the year.  It took 33 days to drill the passage to them.  They were rescued on 10/13/10, which equals 33 when added together.  To a man, they credit Jesus for sustaining them.  Jesus was crucified when he was how old???  33…

Good Question!
 
 

Let me get this straight . . . .

We’re going to be “gifted” with a health care
plan we are forced to purchase and
fined if we don’t,

Which purportedly covers at least
ten million more people,
without adding a single new doctor,
but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents,

written by a committee whose chairman
says he doesn’t understand it,

passed by a Congress that didn’t read it but
exempted themselves from it,

and signed by a President who smokes,

with funding administered by a treasury chief who
didn’t pay his taxes,

for which we’ll be taxed for four years before any
benefits take effect,

by a government which has
already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare,

all to be overseen by a surgeon general
who is obese,

and financed by a country that’s broke!!!!!

‘What the hell could
possibly go wrong?’

Quote of the day:
‘Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater.

If you give her sperm, she’ll give you a baby.

If you give her a house, she’ll give you a home.

If you give her groceries, she’ll give you a meal.

If you give her a smile, she’ll give you her heart.

She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit.’

Two Friends

MothersHeart2 Comments

TWO FRIENDS WERE WALKING THROUGH THE DESERT.
DURING SOME POINT OF THE JOURNEY, THEY HAD AN
ARGUMENT; AND ONE FRIEND SLAPPED THE OTHER ONE
IN THE FACE.

THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPEDWAS HURT, BUT WITHOUT
SAYING ANYTHING, WROTE IN THE SAND:
TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.

THEY KEPT ON WALKING, UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS,
WHERE THEY DECIDED TO TAKE A BATH
THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THE
MIRE ! AND STARTED DROWNING, BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM.

AFTER ! HE RECOVERED FROM THE NEAR DROWNING,
HE WROTE ON A STONE:
‘TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE ‘.

THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND
ASKED HIM, ‘AFTER I HURT YOU, YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW,
YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY?’

THE FRIEND REPLIED ‘WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US
WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN IN SAND, WHERE WINDS OF
FORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY.
BUT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES SOMETHING GOOD FOR US,
WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONE WHERE NO WIND
CAN EVER ERASE IT.’

LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND AND TO
CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE.

THEY SAY IT TAKES A MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIAL PERSON,
AN HOUR TO APPRECIATE THEM,
A DAY TO LOVE THEM,
AND AN ENTIRE LIFE TO FORGET THEM.

What does a 320 pound woman….

The question is, What does a 320 pound woman look like?

Now, before you scroll down to look at her pictures, get a mental image of what you think a woman who weighs 320 looks like….

 

 

  


Not exactly what you were expecting, is it??!!

The tallest and best proportioned woman in the world lives in Holland .

She is 7’4′ and weighs 320

Whata relief! Now we ALL know we aren’t overweight; we’re just too short!

Have A Great Day!

REPUBLICANS vs DEMOCRATS

MothersHeart1 Comment

A CUTE READ RECEIVED IN AN E-MAL! 

A good story you can tell even your youngest child and they will know the
difference between a liberal Democrat and a conservative Republican.

I remember the time that Catherine, one of my daughter Shannon’s friends when she was little, told me that she wanted to be President one day. Both of her parents are liberal Democrats and were standing there with us and I asked Catherine, ‘If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?’

Catherine replied, ‘I would give houses to all the homeless people.’

‘Wow, what a worthy goal you have there, Catherine.’ I told her, ‘You don’t have to wait until you are President to do that, you can come over to my house and clean up all the dog poop in the back yard and I will pay you $5.  Then we can go over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $5 to use for a new house.’

Catherine, who was about 4, thought that over for a second, while her mom looked at me, and Catherine replied, ‘Why doesn’t the homeless guy come over and clean up the dog poop and you can pay him the $5.’

Welcome to the Republican Party, Catherine.

Good Morning Everyone!

During this storm period …

Tomorrow – Wednesday – August 20th-is when Mom & I will go with Daddy to the hospital for Pre-Op.

We are to be there at 10am and when they called yesterday – Daddy said they told him we would be there for about 2 hours – taking all the necessary test – and would also be showing a video of what will be happening.

Then—on Thursday-August 21st-is when the Open Heart Surgery will take place with our arrival at the hospital to be at 5:30am — with the surgery scheduled for 7:30am.  The brochure stated that the surgery would take 4-6 hours – but I do not know how many procedures that was talking about.  With Daddy having the replacement and three by-passes – I would think that the time would perhaps be longer.  (When the hospital ‘nurse person’ who called about the Pre-Op stuff told Daddy it would be 2-3 hours…I don’t think that nurse knows!) 

While it will be a very long and trying time for us … we are strong and will get through this.  Just please keep us in your prayers — especially Daddy.

We could lose whatever with the storm – but Daddy will be safe in the hospital and that is what is most important.

So get those prayers ready and continue to keep Daddy in your prayers and thoughts.  We always need prayers – sharing love.

I will let you know just as soon as I can.

Love to you all!

Prayers for My Dad – Mom & Me

Daddy had the Cardiologists Doctor appt Wednesday July 23 and of course Mom & I went.
The Dr. is Ben Olliff who has been Mom & Dad’s doc for years.  (was a general doc then cardo). Anyway…GLAD that Mom & I went because Dad I don’t think understood everything he was telling
him.
From everything I heard the blockages are 40 – 70 – 60 & 90 … Now, that may be different
from what he Cath Doc said … but still VERY serious.  Daddy did not understand that they will
need to do a replacement on the MAIN one the Aorta .. and at least two by-passes. But with the
blockages mentioned … there might be more.  It will be a very difficult time for Mother and ME….what will we do?

So Dr Olliff – took us to his scheduling Nurse .. she mae the call to the Surgeons office – a Dr. Wingard )I think that is correct?) and made appt for the 19th of August … Now…just imagine what
my face looked like to Dr Olliff’s Nurse!>? … Like you’ve Got – to – be – kidding?!… then she said that
Dr Wingard nurse said the Doc was On Vacation .. and would be back on Monday (Tomorrow) the 29 of July .. and she would put the information in front of him (because Dr. Olliff’s Nurse faxed the reports over) and would see what Dr Wingard thought thought on Monday!

So tomorrow – Monday – July 28th is the day when Mom & I hope that the Doc will call and get
things rolling.   The sooner the better.  Daddy you know hates to sit and do nothing so just these few
days doing nothing is wearing on him.  Even though he is not talking about it .. you can certainly see
it in is face and eyes.

Daddy is also having a very hard time walking.  His legs especially his right does not want to hold
up at all … and I think that could be a problem.

A Nurse neighbor – asked if they had given him the stress test – I told her no – (that he probably would not make it through that) … and she also wanted to know if he had had a doppler … which he has had about 4 months ago.  (that reminds me … while we were with Dr Olliff’s scheduling nurse on the phone with the surgeons nurse .. THEY wanted to know why this was not done at the time
when he was in the hospital for the cath ???  Mom & I ha no answer … and Daddy none either –
so we don’t know if they even mentioned it to daddy at the time)

I also hear Dr Olliff mention in the exam room when he was telling us all this .. (to daddy he was talking) that he had put it off for 6 months) … Mother did not hear it .. and Dad made no comment – which he probably did not hear!

So with all of this said – I hope you can understand how serious it really is .. I’m so scared…but
cannot let him know because I do not want him getting upset .. that would do him NO good!
So positive thoughts … Lots of prayers …

Balloons & My Heart

‘Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.’
A sharp tongue can cut my own throat.


If I want my dreams to come true, I mustn’t oversleep.


Of all the things I wear, my expression is the most important.


The best vitamin for making friends…. B1.


The happiness of my life depends on the quality of my thoughts.


The heaviest thing I can carry is a grudge.


One thing I can give and still keep…is my word.


I lie the loudest when I lie to myself.
If I lack the courage to start, I have already finished.
One thing I can’t recycle is wasted time.


Ideas won’t work unless I do.


My mind is like a parachute…it functions only when open.

The 10 commandments are not a multiple choice.


The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a lifetime!
It is never too late to become what I might have been.

Life is too short to wake up with regrets.
So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the one’s who don’t.
Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
Friends are like balloons; once you let them go, you might not get them back. Sometimes we get so busy with our own lives and problems that we may not even notice that we’ve let t! hem fly away.
Sometimes we are so caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong
that we forget what’s right and wrong.
Sometimes we just don’t realize what real friendship means
until it is too late. I don’t want to let that happen so I’m gonna tie you to my heart so I never lose you.

YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT*77

This was sent to me from a relative and thought you just might

need to know!

YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT*77
 
I knew about the red light on cars, but not the *77. It was about 1:00 p.m. in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. Lauren’s parents have always told her never to pull over for an unmarked car on the side of the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc.
Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called *77 on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind her. The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was and there weren’t, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he had back up already on the way.
Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind her. One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car behind. They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man was a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes.
I never knew about the *77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a woman alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. Apparently police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe &quiet place. You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them (i.e. put on your hazard lights) or call *77 like Lauren did.
Too bad the cell phone companies don’t generally give you this little bit of wonderful information.

*Speaking to a service representative at
** Bell** Mobility confirmed that *77 was a direct link to state trooper info. So, now it’s your turn to let your fr iends know about *77.
Send this to every woman (and person) you know; it may save a life.This applies to ALL 50 states.

Beautiful Pictures received in an E-Mail!

The water froze the instant the wave broke through the ice. That’s what it is like in Antarctica where it is the coldest weather in decades. Water freezes the instant it comes in contact with the air. The temperature of the water is already some degrees below freezing.  Just look at how the wave froze in midair.
