By all means...MARRY!

---- Forwarded by Josephine T. Terencio/CWRD/ ADB on 04/24/2007 10:05 AM -----

By all Means... MARRY!

I recently read that love is entirely a matter of chemistry.
That must be why my wife treats me like toxic waste. (David Bissonette)

When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge
than to let him keep her. (Sacha Guitry)

After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin;
they just can't face each other, but still they stay together. (Hemant Joshi)

By all means marry. If you get a good wife, you'll be happy.
If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher. (Socrates)

Woman inspires us to great things, and prevents us from
achieving them. (Dumas)

The great question, which I have not been able to answer is, "What does a woman want? (Sigmund Freud)

I had some words with my wife and she had some paragraphs with me. (Anon.)

"Some people ask the secret of our long marriage... We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight, dinner, soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays." (Henny Youngman)

"I don't worry about terrorism. I was married for two years." (Sam Kinison)

"There's a way of transferring funds that is even faster than electronic banking. It's called marriage." (James Holt McGavran)

"I've had bad luck with both my wives. The first one left me and the second one didn't." (Patrick Murray)

Two secrets to keep your marriage brimming
1. Whenever you're wrong, admit it,
2. Whenever you're right, shut up.
(Nash)

The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to
forget it once. (Anonymous)

You know what I did before I married? Anything I wanted to. (Henny Youngman)

My wife and I were happy for twenty years. Then we met. (Rodney Dangerfield)

A good wife always forgives her husband when she's wrong. (Milton Berle)

Marriage is the only war where one sleeps with the enemy. (Anonymous)

A man inserted an 'ad' in the classifieds: "Wife wanted". Next day he received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: "You can have mine."

First Guy (proudly): "My wife's an angel!"
Second Guy : "You're lucky, mine's still alive."

The Last What?

Unclear premise drags down intriguing children’s fantasy - INQUIRER.net, Philippine News for Filipinos

By Noelani Torre
Inquirer
Last updated 07:49pm (Mla time) 04/20/2007

MANILA, Philippines -- The film “The Last Mimzy” is based on “Mimsy Were the Borogroves,” the classic, circa-1940s short story by Lewis Padgett, which in turn was partly inspired by Lewis Carroll’s poem, “Jabberwocky.” There are three titles mentioned in the preceding sentence, and one of them just doesn’t cut it. You can probably guess which one.

Reunion of Stars

Jagger, Clapton, Midler & More Honor Atlantic's Ertegun

Led Zeppelin didn't reunite, but plenty of Ahmet Ertegun's other disciples were more than happy to take the stage together.

Rock icons such as Mick Jagger, Eric Clapton, Stevie Nicks, and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young gathered at New York's Lincoln Center Tuesday to pay tribute to the Atlantic Records chairman, who died Dec. 14 at 83.

Tragically, yet oddly fittingly, Ertegun died of a head injury suffered in October when he fell down at a Rolling Stones concert. A mover and a shaker until the end, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer signed and nurtured rockers such as the Stones and Led Zeppelin, as well as some of the biggest names in soul and R&B, including Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and Otis Redding.

Jagger remembered his boss at Atlantic as "the wicked uncle with the wicked chuckle," saying he could never keep up with the dapper Turk.

Home Recording at its (current) best

Alesis iMultiMix 8 USB Records Right To iPod

Home recording certainly has come a long way. From old tape-based machines to hard disk to CD to SD cards, I thought the industry had run out of storage methods. Then in comes Alesis with its iMultiMix 8 USB Pro iPod Recorder. Basically, it’s just a nice-looking 8-track that will record to your iPod’s hard drive. You can also integrate music from your iPod into one of your recordings and save recordings right to iTunes via USB.

Any iPod with the standard docking slot on the bottom will work with the iMultiMix 8, which is nice. This impressive little 8-track will be on sale for $500 this fall.

Message

F A M I L Y

I ran into a stranger as he passed by,
"Oh excuse me please" was my reply.

He said, "Please excuse me too;
I wasn't watching for you."

We were very polite, this stranger and I.
We went on our way and we said goodbye.

But at home a different story is told,
How we treat our loved ones, young and old.

Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
My son stood beside me very still.


When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.
"Move out of the way," I said with a frown.


He walked away, his little heart broken.
I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.

While I lay awake in bed,
God's still small voice came to me and said,

"While dealing with a stranger,
common courtesy you use,
but the family you love, you seem to abuse.

Go and look on the kitchen floor,
You'll find some flowers there by the door.

Those are the flowers he brought for you.
He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.

He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,
you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes."

By this time, I felt very small,
And now my tears began to fall.

I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
"Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.

"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.


I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.
I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."


I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;
I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."
He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay.
I love you anyway."


I said, "Son, I love you too,
and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."


FAMILY
Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company
that we are working for could easily replace us in
a matter of days.
But the family we left behind will feel the loss
for the rest of their lives.

And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
into work than into our own family,
an unwise investment indeed,
don't you think?
So what is behind the story?

This came from my email today, sent by my former co-teacher, Ken.

Housewives' Most Desperate Hour

You can't blame Sanjaya for this one.

The supposed culprit behind "American Idol's" recent slide was nowhere to be found as "Desperate Housewives" sank to an all-time ratings low Sunday night.

The ABC soap drew 15.9 million viewers, big enough for its usual Top 10 finish in the latest Nielsen Media Research rankings, but small enough to raise questions, such as: What the hell happened to Wisteria Lane?

The show is quietly averaging 5 million fewer viewers this season than last, a decline of 22 percent.

Here's a look at last week's most watched shows:

1. "American Idol" (Tue), 26.7 million
2. "American Idol" (Wed), 26.1 million
3. "CSI," 21.7 million
4. "House," 20.4 million
5. Men's Basketball Championship, 19.6 million
6. "Dancing with Stars" (Mon), 18.2 million
7. "Desperate Housewives," 15.9 million
8. "Shark," 15.1 million

Somewhere I have never travelled

somewhere i have never travelled,gladly beyond
 any experience,your eyes have their silence:
 in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
 or which i cannot touch because they are too near
 
 your slightest look easily will unclose me
 though i have closed myself as fingers,
 you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
 (touching skilfully,mysteriously)her first rose
 
 or if your wish be to close me,i and
 my life will shut very beautifully,suddenly,
 as when the heart of this flower imagines
 the snow carefully everywhere descending;
 
 nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
 the power of your intense fragility: whose texture
 compels me with the colour of its countries,
 rendering death and forever with each breathing
 
 (i do not know what it is about you that closes
 and opens;only something in me understands
 the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
 nobody,not even the rain, has such small hands
