[Mb-civic] Fwd: Consider These 3 Thoughts

[Mark Lichtenberger]

Subject: Consider These 3 Thoughts

(1) Zero Gravity

When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered
that ball-point pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat this
problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion developing a
pen that writes in zero gravity, upside-down, on almost any surface
including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to over
300 C.

The Russians used a pencil. Your taxes are due again--enjoy paying them.


(2) Our 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, and
it's worked for over 200 years.

And, we're not using it anymore."


(3) Ten Commandments

The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse
is that you cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit
Adultery" and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers,
judges and politicians .

It creates a hostile work environment.

"Within each of us is a loving, magical, 
powerful being...  A Real Self.  
Music, friend that it is, 
cocoons us from our worries, 
enabling that inner self to emerge."
 ~ Karunesh  (sanskrit for compassion)
