Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
Worry - one of my better skills... possibly one of my best talents..... :o(
BONUS - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Y-0nWVdBH4 - Don't Worry Baby - The Beach Boys
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_Worry_Baby:
"Don’t Worry Baby" is a song written by
Brian Wilson and
Roger Christian, produced by Wilson and first recorded by the
Beach Boys. The band's version, a tender ballad with falsetto lead
vocal by Brian, was first released on their 1964 album
Shut Down Volume 2. It was also released as the B-side of
The Beach Boys' first U.S. number-one hit single, "I
Get Around", managing to reach number 24 on the U.S. Hot 100 in its
own right. The single was released in the United States in May 1964
through
Capitol Records. It was released a month later, in June 1964, in the
United Kingdom. Brian Wilson cited the song as his attempt to capture the essence of his all-time favourite record, "Be My Baby" by the Ronettes, who would later cover his song. At one time, Wilson listened to his 45 record of the song he "could never do" up to 100 times a day. John Lennon's 1980 hit, "(Just Like) Starting Over", is considered by some to somewhat borrow from the chorus melody of "Don't Worry Baby", while Garbage's 1998 hit, "Push It", contains an interpolation of its chorus. The song "Don't Worry Baby" is part of the The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll list.[1], and ranked as the 176th greatest song of all time in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. |

From My Niece, Shari, of VA - 08/26/13 - "I had no idea an average pencil
could write 45,000 words and more":

Alone in Iceland. (Nice video that can be viewed full screen.) Music http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xlj9lu_tears-for-fears-shout_music Tears For Fears--Shout http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxlAK8oKgdE Boy Meets Girl - Waiting For A Star To Fall (RELAID AUDIO) . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkADj0TPrJA Phil Collins-In The Air Tonight **************************************************** Important A mother mouse is walking along the road with her baby when suddenly a cat jumps out and attacks them. Instantly, the mother mouse shouts loudly, "BARK" at which point the cat ran off. "There, you see" said the mother mouse to her baby, "That is why learning a foreign language is so important!" ************* *-- That's Irony For Ya! --* I bet I could quit gambling. What if there were no hypothetical situations? It's not my fault I don't take responsibility for my actions. As I said before, I'll only say this once. This statement is false. Don't you hate rhetorical questions? God, I want patience, and I WANT IT NOW! Sorry, I forgot all about the Amnesia Conference! The creation of random numbers is too important to be left to chance. I can resist everything except temptation. I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure. Never believe generalizations. Avoid alliterations always. I used to be schizophrenic, but we're OK now. Thank God I'm an atheist. Just say NO to negativity. ************* *-- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes --* As the high school teacher was correcting essays written by her students she read, "Pedro jumped on his burrow and rode off into the sunset." She wrote at the bottom of the page, "You obviously have problems with homonyms. A burrow is a hole in the ground. A burro is an ass. At your age it's time to learn the difference." ************* The Assistant Programmer Bob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found hard at work in his cubicle. Bob works independently, without wasting company time talking to colleagues. Bob never thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always finishes given assignments on time. Often Bob takes extended measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee breaks. Bob is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no vanity in spite of his accomplishments and profound knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Bob can be classed as a high-caliber employee, the type which cannot be dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Bob be promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be sent away as soon as possible. Sd/- Project Leader ------ A MEMO WAS SOON SENT FOLLOWING THE LETTER: THAT STUPID IDIOT WAS READING OVER MY SHOULDER WHEN I WROTE THE REPORT SENT TO YOU EARLIER TODAY. KINDLY READ EVERY SECOND LINE (IE. 1,3,5,7,9...) FOR MY TRUE ASSESSMENT OF HIM. REGARDS. Sd/- Project Leader **************************************************** Simple Meditation MEDITATION is simple. PRECISELY because it is simple, it looks difficult. Your mind is accustomed to dealing with difficult problems, and it has completely forgotten how to respond to the simple things of life. Osho **************************************************** RANDOM TIDBITS The biggest school in the world (in terms of pupils, not area) is the City Montessori school in Lucknow, India. The school was set up by the Ghandi's in 1959 and has more than 32,000 students! Didaskaleinophobia is the fear of going to school. Yes, it actually exists, and 2.4% of school-aged children are considered to have it, on an international level. Pencils are not only good in the classroom, but they can be used in zero gravity, upside down and even under water. The average classroom pencil can write approximately 45,000 words. Before the school calendar became national, geography determined when students attended classes. In small, rural areas, school went from December to March and May to August so that kids could help plant in the spring and harvest in the fall. In urban areas, schools feared spread of disease in hot, crowded schoolrooms and gave their children summers off. The tradition of giving apples to teachers dates back to the 16th century in Denmark, where parents would pay their educators with food (namely, apples since they were expensive and hard to harvest), since teachers couldn't live off their small salaries. Approximately 480,000 yellow school buses carry 25 million US children to and from school every weekday. (www.todaysparent.com) More TIDBITS Humans shed about 600,000 particles of skin every hour. That works out to about 1.5 pounds each year, so the average person will lose around 105 pounds of skin by age 70. Humans get a new stomach lining every three to four days. Otherwise, the strong acids your stomach uses to digest food would also digest your stomach. The small intestine is about four times as long as the average adult is tall. If it weren't looped back and forth upon itself, its length of 18 to 23 feet wouldn't fit into the abdominal cavity. A pair of feet have 500,000 sweat glands and can produce more than a pint of sweat a day. Laid end to end, there are about 60,000 miles of blood vessels in the human body. The nails that get the most exposure and are used most frequently grow the fastest. Fingernails grow fastest on the hand that you write with and on the longest fingers. **************************************************** Who Is? Who is wise? He who learns from everyone. Who is strong? He who subdues his evil inclination. Who is rich? He who is happy with his lot. Who is honorable? He who honors others." ~The Talmudic sage Simon ben Zoma~ **************************************************** Know What To Fear George, my eight-year-old son asked me, "Daddy, how do I know what to fear?" George had turned
eight less than a week ago; and beginning on his eighth birthday, he
began asking me some deep life questions.
Thank you, Shari!

From www.ajokeaday.com - 08/27/13:
A young boy entered a barber shop and the barber whispered to his customer, “This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you.” The barber put a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then called the boy over and asked, “Which do you want, son?” The boy took the quarters and left. “What did I tell you?” said the barber. “That kid never learns!” Later, when the customer left, he saw the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store. “Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?” The boy licked his cone and replied, “Because the day I take the dollar, the game is over!”

Written by Brian Wilson (b. 20 June 1942) and Roger Christian (03 July 1934 – 11 July 1991)
Sung with Lorrie Morgan (b. 27 June 1959) on lead vocals and The Beach Boys backup vocals
Well, its been building up inside of me
For oh, I don't know how long;
I don't know why, but I keep thinking
Something's bound to go wrong.
But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
When she says, "Don't worry, baby."
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby.
I guess I should've kept my mouth shut
When I started to brag about my car,
But I can't back down now because
I pushed the other guys too far.
She makes me come alive
And makes me wanna drive
When she says, "Don't worry baby."
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby.
She told me "Baby, when you race today
Just take along my love with you,
And if you knew how much I loved you,
Baby, nothing could go wrong with you."
Oh, what she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says "Don't worry, baby"
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Everything will turn out alright.
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby,
Don't worry, baby.

Worry Baby"
