Can't means won't
it may or may not get better real fast but it sure gets interesting which is worth being around
Listen to that little voice in your head when it says DON'T DO THAT
The country is way more peaceful than the city
Cancer is usually from doing something over and over.. so try diversity in your life / diet
Sex definately is not all its cracked up to be .. but you won't know that until you nip it in the bud
getting old is a lot more fun than you might think
Don't do something dumb which will ruin the rest of your life
Your sense of self is worth way more than any money or career
Good people like good people nasty people only are liked by themselves
If you love hard work you will always find work and good people who appreciate hard workers
Grow your own food you will be surprised how much you save and how great it taste
Eat food because it makes you feel good inside not just because it taste good
Listen to the elderly they have been around to know better
God is love , Love is God , make a resting place in your heart for Love/God

I stayed at a hotel years ago in Texas, they had a sign (I hope I remember this correctly) :
QuoteWelcome to our Ool.
We have a nice, clean Ool.
You'll notice there is no "P" in our Ool.
Please help us keep it this way.

Thanks Jamie.
I dislike war and violence but I praise the valour and sacrifice that all the incredible people who have protected us have given.
It was a t dawn of this day that the young men of Australia and New Zealand were landed on the killing field of Gallipoli. Unknown to them it was strongly protected by the Turkish army, brave people also.
It was a slaughter.
The Turkish people keep Anzac Cove at Gallipoli as a memorial to those who died during that terrible time. And Australians and New Zealanders remember all of our fallen and injured war personnel on this day.
No matter if the politics were right or wrong, people lost their lives to defend their countries and their loved ones.
I honour them.
