aras (Sheldon Robinson):
Sometimes I look in the mirror I stand there for a moment looking
and trying to understand the face before me I see no emotion and sense no
feelings there It's not an ugly face It's not cold, yet it doesn't seem
to show any signs life
Then I look deep inside the face at its past Here I find pain and
suffering Here is the racism and hatred from outside and in that couldn't
be accepted or understood Here is the image of a flame, a young life that
grew stronger Soon, it was a fire, powerful enough to light the night sky
The fire began to burn the evil in this world, and evil was frightened He
was afraid of the flame and what it could do Evil needed to stop the fire
before it grew more
For years, it doused the flame with its hate A line of people was
stretched out beyond the horizon, beyond what the flame could see The line
was beyond the hope of the flame They came to destroy the flame They had
buckets and bottles and cups full of hate They had hoses that spewed this
hate on the flame They all hated this flame for being, and the flame could
not understand why
There were a few in the line who tried to save the flame They saw
the good within him They knew how powerful he could become They knew he
had tried to fight on the side of the good, so they came to help They had
explosives and fuel and clean air of love for the flame They brought good
ideals with them of equality and freedom and good will They tried to help
him become strong again, but the flame had gotten too small They had come
too late to save this flame On his last breath, he said the following:
I have desire but no belief that I can get what I want and no want for what
I have and hatred for myself for desiring that which I do
Then the flame died

suresh (SURESH ADINA):
Plan:1) To try Solicit Physics and get the Chemistry working for
Biological needs.
2)To find a friend who:
Is so special
Is so dear
Lends a hand or a buck or an ear
Knows you are gloomy and asks "what's the matter?"
Doesn't mind if you're thinner or fatter
Makes you cheerful
Makes you glad
Always tells you that your hair is not that bad
Hopes you are happy and things about you
And comes up with crazy things like this. :-)
If you are one of them, then we are friends.
******************************
Life can be short or long
Life can be right or wrong
It's upto you
Make the right decision!!
******************************
Let somebody know you're caring
Take time to listen to
What they want so much to tell you,
For the gentle folks are few.
You are not so high and mighty,
That you cannot spare a smile,
For you never know when you might
Need somebody after-while.
*****************************
I have heard that it all depends
Upon your point of view
The happiness you get from life,
And how things look to you.
And the longer I am living,
I've realy come to see,
That is just as true a fact,
As anything could be.
******************************
Now for a little pun:
Watson(to Sherlock Holmes): What kind of school did you go to, to
become such a good detective?
Holmes: Elementary Mr Watson, elementary.

And if you feel like visiting me, this will pick you up.

DON'T DRIVE AFTER DRINKING.
AND ENJOY LIFE

I went out to do some touch and goes today, and the ATIS ended
with a slight twist......
"...altimeter 29.93. VFR departures advise ground control of
destination and altitude and you play golf."
Coincedentally, I called up right behind a KC-10 that was getting
ready to go. The exchange was;
"Wilmington ground, Cessna 54360 at ISO (the FBO ramp) with about
a 14 handicap, request tee time for the pattern."
[delay.....squelch breaks with laughter.......]
"Cessna 360 taxi to runway 24 behind the 10 iron, number 2 for
takeoff, he's a scratch golfer."
Seems that the controller (a trainee) wasn't privy to the ATIS tagline,
and his supervisor got a BIG kick out of all this.
