When Couples go to bed.............

So sad to see this cartoon but is true. I sincerely hope our local authorities could do something to improve the situation. 

What keeps the doctor away for men???

The old days of saying... "An Apple a day keeps the doctor away" might be not so effective as what you see on top. What say you gentleman?

Good Manners..............

Gentlemen out there.... Are we really from Mars?

Don't take things for granted.........

Is getting marry the passport to permanent happiness? 

This was the question many young couples asked me. The best answer is the simple chart posted above. If any readers disagree, please tell us.

AN EAGLE KISS....................................................

Freedom and Jeff

 Freedom and I have been together 11 years this summer. 

 She came in as a baby in 1998 with two broken wings.

 Her left wing doesn't open all the way even after surgery,

 it was broken in 4 places.

 She's my baby.

   When Freedom came in she could not stand 

 and both wings were broken. She was 

 emaciated and covered in lice. We made the 

 decision to give her a chance at life, so I took 

 her to the vet's office. From then 

 on, I was always around her. We had her in a 

 huge dog carrier with the top off, and it 

 was loaded up with shredded newspaper for her to 

 lay in. I used to sit and talk to her, 

 urging her to live, to fight; and she would lay 

 there looking at me with those big brown eyes. 

 We also had to tube feed her for weeks.

 This went on for 4-6 weeks, and by then she still 

 couldn't stand. It got to the point where the 

 decision was made to euthanize her 

 if she couldn't stand in a week. You know you don't 

 want to cross that line between torture and 

 rehab, and it looked like death was 

 winning. She was going to be put 

 down that Friday, and I was supposed to come in 

 on that Thursday afternoon. I didn't want to go 

 to the center that Thursday, because I couldn't 

 bear the thought of her being euthanized; 

 but I went anyway, and when I walked in everyone 

 was grinning from ear to ear. I went 

 immediately back to her cage; and there she was, 

 standing on her own, a big beautiful 

 eagle. She was ready to live. I was 

 just about in tears by then. That 

 was a very good day. 

 We knew she could never fly, so the director 

 asked me to glove train her.

 I got her used to the glove,

 and then to jesses, and we started

 doing education programs for schools

 in western Washington . 

 We wound up in the newspapers, 

 radio (believe it or not) and some 

 TV. Miracle Pets even did a show 

 about us.

 In the spring of 2000, I was diagnosed with 

 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. I had stage 3, 

 which is not good (one major organ plus 

 everywhere), so I wound up doing 8 months of 

 chemo. Lost the hair - the whole 

 bit. I missed a lot of work. When I 

 felt good enough, I would go to Sarvey 

 and take Freedom out for walks. Freedom would 

 also come to me in my dreams and help me fight 

 the cancer. This happened time and time again.

 Fast forward to November 2000

 the day after Thanksgiving,

 I went in for my last checkup. 

 I was told that if the cancer was not 

 all gone after 8 rounds of chemo, then my last 

 option was a stem cell transplant. Anyway, they 

 did the tests; and I had to come back Monday for 

 the results. I went in Monday, and I was 

 told that all the cancer was gone.

So the first thing I did was get up to Sarvey and 

 take the big girl out for a walk. It was misty

 and cold. I went to her flight and jessed her 

 up, and we went out front to the top of the 

 hill. I hadn't said a word to 

 Freedom, but somehow she knew. She looked at me 

 and wrapped both

 her wings around me to where I 

 could feel them pressing in on my back 

 (I was engulfed in eagle wings), and she 

 touched my nose with her beak and stared into my 

 eyes, and we just stood there like that 

 for I don't know how long . That was a 

 magic moment. We have been soul mates ever 

 since she came in. This is a very special bird.

 On a side note: I have had people who 

 were sick come up to us when we are out, and 

 Freedom has some kind of hold on 

 them. I once had a guy who was 

 terminal come up to us and

 I let him hold her.

 His knees just about buckled and he 

 swore he could feel her power course through his 

 body. I have so many stories like that..

 I never forget the honor I have of being so close 

 to such a magnificent spirit as 

 Freedom.

Learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.....

This posting and proverb are specially for those ladies who are not in good terms with their loved one.

I'm old, short, not handsome, hot temper at time, prideful, arrogance, and yet my little darling loves me madly because she knows how to see my imperfection perfectly. 

One of my lady client was celebrating her birthday alone yesterday, because she had a quarrel with her home sweetheart. Upon receiving this cartoon from me, all her anger disappeared with her husband.
