Jamey Douglas Bacon ('66) of VA:
From Judy Phillips Allen ('66) of VA - 07/10/08:
Jamey Douglas Bacon.From Denbigh Boulevard, turn on Old Denbigh Boulevard and then in to Warwick Forrest and it is the last building on the right. The building is called the Gardens.
Brian
Thank you so much,
dearest Judy - and Brian!
We're so glad to hear that
Jamey's feeling better now - please give her our love!
From Linda May Bond Crayton ('66) of VA - 07/09/08 - "For the birds":
I've been wondering if any of you guys have
noticed the change in the bird population this year.
First and importantly, we have that Golden Tail Hawk, new to the area, that
seems to like rabbits, squirrels, and I'm sorry to say, pet puppies - which I'm
sure are all the same from its viewpoint. I saw this up close and personal
myself with a rabbit not twenty feet from my window!
Then there are these little sparrows which may be Yellow Chats that are bright
yellow on their chest and a moss green on their head. Once they land in a tree
they totally disappear.
We have a ton of Cardinals, unusual. But I have seen little to no Blue Jays
(which for those who understand me, know it is my favorite Astrological sign -
Pretty to look at but a pain in the butt to live with - I know many Blue Jays)
I've noticed very few Robins but the Mocking Bird is hanging on.
More Black birds - BIG, Stephen King size.
More Vultures, right on the road and not-afraid-of-anything kind of Vultures.
Not many butterflies.
OK, group, lets have it! What have you seen ?
Linda May ' 66
WOW , thanks, Linda May!
My
observations (or lack thereof) would hardly be applicable, as I'm so far removed
from the Sacred Soil, but all I've really noticed on the days when I leave the
Great Indoors to venture outside (as when I go to my mailbox
)
is an increase in squirrels, with our normally plentiful FAT robins and
cardinals.
How 'bout y'all?
From Jean Poole Burton ('64) of
RI - 7/09/08 - "You will like this":
A friend sent this to me. It's been said that God first
separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, planted a garden, made
animals and fish... all before making a human.. He made and provided what we'd
need before we were born. These are best & more powerful when eaten raw.
We're such slow learners...
God left us a great clue as to what foods help
what part of our body!
God's Pharmacy! Amazing!
A sliced
Carrot looks like the human eye.. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look
just like the human eye... and YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance
blood flow to and function of the eyes.
A Tomato
has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All of the
research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and
blood food.
Grapes
hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart.. Each grape looks like a
blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart
and blood vitalizing food.
A Walnut
looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and
lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the
neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen
neuron-transmitters for brain function.
Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they
look exactly like the human kidneys.
Celery,
Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods
specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23%
sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the
bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the
body.
Avocadoes, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and
cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows
that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted
birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? It takes
exactly nine (9) months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There
are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of
these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).
Figs are
full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of
male sperm and increase the numbers of Sperm as well to overcome male sterility.
Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic
index of diabetics.
Olives
assist the health and function of the ovaries
Oranges,
Grapefruits, and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary
glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the
movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.
Onions
look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste
materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the
epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion, Garlic, also helps
eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.
You're right; I DO
like this! Thanks so much, Jean!
From Judy Phillips Allen ('66) of VA - 07/09/08 - "America":
I don't know how many of you have seen this, but I would hate for you to miss
it, so here it comes. You, too,
Wayne
(Stokes
- '65 - of VA)!
Sorry if it has already made its way "round" your way.
THIS IS AWESOME!!

Turn your speakers on then sit back and
enjoy.

You are gonna love this.
You're right,
Lady - it IS awesome and I DO love it! Thanks, Judy!

Hi, Bill:
Thanks for the "Care Package" from Fort Benning. The
package was loaded with good information and I so enjoyed your letter
describing how you enjoyed your day at the Georgia Welcome Center in
Columbus, Georgia greetings travelers on behalf of Hills and Dales
Estate. The Calloway Gardens are spectacular and so are their
brochures. We look forward to getting up that neck of the woods soon.
You charged my "military battery" today!!!
TYPHOON Regards,

Hi, Carol:
This graphic will provide an explanation of why
Bill Black (AKA: Jim Quinn) spent the day in Columbus, GA greeting

TYPHOON Regards,

But seriously, we had a huge electrical
storm come through LaGrange this afternoon, and I was sitting in my
office, counting the time between flashes and rumbles to determine how
close they really were when there was a sudden Flash/BAMMM
that nearly put me on the floor. The house, about two hundred yards
uphill from where I was sitting, sustained a direct hit on the west
chimney, putting a split in the brick and stucco about two inches wide and
five or six feet long.
Image #003 shows the cracked stucco,
Image #005 is a slightly better view because in the copper-lined valley
between the roof planes, you see shattered terra-cotta roof tiles lying in
the valley.

lady! Just thought I'd share with you guys a post that I have on my WordArt site - It's before and after pics of

me :)
I just had to share some Before/After pictures
from this diet that my hubby and I have been on for the last 8 weeks or so. It's
really working well.
Wow, I can't believe I'm posting this "before" pic of us. The first shot was
taken on in North Carolina at my in-laws' house on New Year's Eve of 2007 - just
7 months ago. Wow! Brent was weighing 255 lbs, and I was...um...do I post my
weight? OK, just keep in mind that I'm 5'8", and hold my weight well (LOL!). I
was 194 lbs.
And the second one taken June 30..... Here we are now. Brent is weighing 204 lbs. (WOW!!!), and I am 166 lbs. (I'm pretty thin at 155). I'm getting close to my goal, and I'm pretty excited :) In case you're interested, we're doing the "1st Personal Diet" by Dr. Cohen. It's very exacting, and a bit costly, but IT WORKS!!! and that's the important part :)
WOWZERONI-RINI-ROONI,
thanks, Bethany!
You
two look mah-velous, Dahlin'!
Congratulations!
Pam Larmer Traugott ('62) of VA -
07/10/08 - "Christian the Lion":
I watched this video three times and teared up
each time. What a beautiful miracle caught on tape. The simple uncomplicated way
these two young men gave a full life to this magnificent cat took my breath away
. I felt heavy hearted for the last note of the state of affairs in this African
country.
Christian the LionCheck this one out! The top link is from snopes and it is a true story - snopes has the video but it is better in the other link. It is great!!! I guess it has been around a while but this is the first I have seen of it. Am not sure I would be that brave with a lion jumping for joy all over me...
Oh, WOWZERS -

Thanks so much,
Pam!
