    Monday, February 18, 2008, 11:24 PM EST [General]

    Colonoscopies are no joke , but these comments by men during the exam are quite humorous.....

    1. "Take it easy, Doc. You're boldly going where no man has gone before!"

    2. "Find Amelia Earhart yet?"

    3. "Can you hear me NOW?"

    4. "Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"

    5. "You know, in Arkansas , we're now legally married."

    6. "Any sign of the trapped miners, Chief?"

    7. "You put your left hand in, you take your left hand out..."

    8. "Hey! Now I know how a Muppet feels!"

    9. "If your hand doesn't fit, you must quit!

    10. "Hey, Doc, let me know if you find my dignity."

    11. "You used to be an executive at Enron, didn't you?"

    12. "God, now I know why I am not gay."


    13. "Could you write a note for my wife saying that my head is not up there?"

    True friendship

    True    Friendship

     

     
    1. When you are sad -- I will jump on the person who made you sad like a
          spider monkey.
     
    2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.
     
    3. When you smile -- I will know you are plotting something that I must be
        involved in.
     
    4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get.
     
    5. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much
        Worse it could be until you quit whining.
     
    6. When you are confused -- I will use little words.
     
    7. When you are sick -- Stay away from me until you are well again.
        I don't want whatever you have.
     
    8. When you fall -- I will point and laugh at your clumsiness.
     
    9. This is my oath.... I pledge it to the end. 'Why?'
        you may ask; because you are my friend'.
     
    Friendship is like peeing your pants,  
    everyone can see it,
    But only you can feel the true warmth.

    Has the law of Karma gone awry?

    Wednesday, February 13, 2008, 07:19 PM EST [General]


    Karma is a law in Hinduism which maintains that every act done, no matter how insignificant, will eventually return with equal impact. Good will be returned with good; evil with evil.

    Karma is sometimes referred to as a "moral law of cause and effect." Karma is both an encouragement to do good and to avoid evil, as well as an explanation for whatever good or evil befalls a person.


    We are raised to believe that if we are kind, moral, and work hard we will eventually be rewarded in this life.  We have always been told "Do good unto others and they will do good unto you".  That is the basic premise of karma.  I inately believe most people are good and deserve the gains in their life.  

    Most of the time I think karma works.  There are numerous times I hear of something good or bad happening to a particular person and I say to myself, "No one deserved it more than that person".  I have seen that good deeds do return, and I have also seen that bad deeds return.

     But sometimes the law of Karma gets turned upside down.  There was a story a few days ago that got me thinking about all of this Karma stuff.  A level 3 sex offender in Boston won $10M dollars in the lottery.  The 56-year-old was convicted several times of indecent assault and battery in the 1970s and 1980s, with two of the assaults involving a child under the age of 14.

    I dont know about any of you, but this turns my belief of Karma upside down.   What great deed overcame all of his bad and evil actions?  Is it possible to turn such evil deeds into good Karma?   Is this just a step on the way to his "real" Karma?  Should we just dismiss this as chance?  It certainly looks to me like this man has been rewarded in life... Surely there were millions of people more deserving of this reward than him?   What do you think?
