Kathy Steele Haddox:

 Lest you forget........ I remember very well...It was under Bush that gasoline was so high that prices on EVERYTHING, especially GROCERIES, sky-rocketed, because of the hike in gas ....BUT, Did the prices go back down when gasoline price went down? Hell no! Bush term..... remember that! In fact, George W. Bush's administration experienced a 179.6% spike in gasoline prices during two weeks of his presidency. A regular gallon of gas peaked at $4.11 on July 7, 2008, which was 14 cents higher than the most expensive week in Obama's first term.

 On May 2nd, 1933, the day after Labor day, Nazi groups occupied union halls and labor leaders were arrested. Trade Unions were outlawed by Adolf Hitler, while collective bargaining and the right to strike was abolished. This was the beginning of a consolidation of power by the fascist regime which systematically wiped out all opposition groups, starting with unions, liberals, socialists, and communists using Himmler’s state police.

NewsAlert: NASA Discovers a Water World --A 'New Species' "Unlike Any Planet We Know Of"
Hippie Digest for Tuesday
The local news station was interviewing an 80-year-old lady because she had just gotten married for the fourth time.


The interviewer asked her questions about her life, about what it felt like to be marrying again at 80, and then about her new husband's occupation.


"He's a funeral director," she answered.


"Interesting," the newsman thought.


He then asked her if she wouldn't mind telling him a little about her first three husbands and what they did for a living.

She paused for a few moments, needing time to reflect on all those
years.

After a short time, a smile came to her face and she answered proudly, explaining that she had first married a banker when she was in her 20's, then a circus ringmaster when in her 40's, and a preacher when in her 60's, and now - in her 80's - a funeral director.

The interviewer looked at her, quite astonished, and asked why she had married four men with such diverse careers.





(wait for it)








She smiled and explained, "I married
one for the money,
two for the show,
three to get ready,
and four to go."
