I think veterans SHOULD be getting this deal! Mostr Commonwealth countries pay a stipend to parenrts to help raise theirchildren (until age 18, in Canada) Some, a rare miniority, do think it's a hoib to squirt them out one after the other for the increased baby bonus cheque each month, & higher welfare, natch I'm not a cop, so I dn't investigaste rumours of such. I just wish every parent well on the tough job of raising the next generation. . . > Dumb Criminals 101.

Like the child who innocently asked, during a srmon, "What is butt dust?" (after pastor said "Lord, we are but dust in Your sight.") Another Kindergartner in Sunday scool was asked to define "faith" & answered "Believing somethiung that you know isn't true." Of course, too many adults, including her parentsm, think that way. . . Truthfully the original word in the Bible is "trust" You trust Whom you know & recognize as your heavenly Father. Israel didn't have "faith" while traveling in the deserty for 40 years -- they had tyrust in the Onme Whose physical presence led the way & Who had with great signs, freed them from pharaoh. . . then we have trust in our parents who tell us of the first-hand bases for the trust in God they have. . .. Or, one who joins as a convert trusts the friends s/he hears from. . . The little girl defines "faith" as used today, well enough. . . I put my trust the One Who has kept me safe to this day, from various threats & dangers. . . Innocence. . . I got very annoyed when I found one of our cats, Steve, perched on a manyberry berry pie I had just baked. I was ready to yell at him when my son - 12 at the time - exclaimed "Stop Mom! Don't yell... he's just an innocent Pie Stander!" Steve was not yelled at. Q: Which American president was the least guilty? A: Abraham Lincoln. He was in a cent. My wife called me up from the animal shelter the other day wanting to adopt a dog. Since money is tight current, I specifically said "0 canine". Now I'm the proud owner of 9 German shepherd pups and will from now on pronounce "0" as "Zero". > GP> Good thing the areafix dude knew me well, & warned me of a tight*ss > GP> weinie in the group.
