Happy Thanksgiving
Ken Drummond circa 1985
I am thankful for the birds that sing,
The grass that grows,
The clouds that show
Our thoughts’ reflection taking wing.
I love the crispy nights and morns,
The daffodils blooming,
The cannons booming,
The cows in the corn.
I am thankful for life and the chance to grow,
The tests and battles,
Premature death rattles,
Inspiring me to homeward go.
For beauty, peace, and love and joy,
Divine compassion ever showing,
The soul's awareness ever growing,
I give Thee thanks, oh Lord.

Public
Speaking--Yogi Philosopher
Yesterday I sent out
Global
Cooling - A Tall Tale. Received some interesting responses on
the
Email
Preferences page. For example:
Our Financial Woes Are Over
Thanks to Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and an unnamed foreign potentate,
we are expecting to shortly receive billions of dollars in donations. I
am glad that they took the trouble to click the appropriate boxes in
the questionnaire. I am surprised that they didn't click on the
donation
button to send the donations immediately using PayPal or a credit card,
but I am thinking that for such large amounts maybe they need to send a
check.
At this time we will still accept other donations however, just on the
off-chance that the donations from the billionaires are delayed for
some reason.
Other Boxes
Were Also Clicked On
Nobody asked to be removed from the mailing list. Only two people
requested reduced mailings. Most people were happy with the mailings I
have been sending out so far. So that is a relief. Of course, if I keep
sending out e-mails, I cannot expect this much tolerance forever.
