Laughter is healthy:

Three elderly men were in the doctors for a memory test.

The doctor asks the first man,"What is three times three?"

The guy answers,"Two hundred and seventy four."

The doctor rolls his eyes and looks at the ceiling, then he asks the second old fellow,"What is three times three?"
"Tuesday," replies the second man.
The doctor shakes his head and asks the third guy,"What is three times three?"
The third man answers,"Nine."
"That's great!" says the doctor,"How did you get that?"
"Simple," says the man, "just subtract 274 from Tuesday."

I know it's bad but it's late.

about the boy who died at the zoo

Eat for the health of it.

I really do not know who to contact with this information but I have been very concerned about the boy who died at the zoo in Toledo,Ohio. He had an enlarged heart that no-one knew about but rarely people die from an enlarged heart especially when he had no symptoms before that. I did an article a few days ago about soy products and it made me wonder if by any chance that this boy had eaten cereal with soy products in it, and if the cereal he ate had the genetically altered soy beans in it and if he was allergic to these soybeans, could it be that these were the cause of his death? We probably will never know but I hope parents will check all cereal boxes to see if they have soybeans or soy products added to them. You can buy the all natural cereals but make sure there are no soybeans in it or soy products. Yes! Even the all natural cereal may contain genetically altered soybeans.

I know that all soy products may not be made from the genetically altered beans but can we play Russian Ruolette with our lives? I know when I ate those darn altered beans I was in severe pain and this has happened to me several times, so now I check to see if anything I am about to eat has soy products in it. I have to check for MSG, Aspartame,Chlorine or bleaching agents, HFCS,etc.I can't take generic medicines, and now soy products and soy is in a lot of food. I am now eating all natural or Organic foods but I still have to watch for soy products.

When are they going to stop poisoning our food? They are not supposed to use the altered beans for human consumption. They are for manufacturing purposes only. I said right from the start, what is going to stop them from using those altered beans in our food and yep! That's what they are doing. I am angry and I have a right to be angry. I have to ask at weddings and other get together's "do you use any of these chemicals?" They look at you like you were some kind of an idiot and some have even asked me why I try to eat out. I travel and it is hard to find a place that has all natural foods. Even the lettuce in the bag has MSG on it and at a restaurant that I ate at recently told me they don't have MSG in the packaged lettuce so I ate it and I barely got home and my skin itched from my wrists and arms; up into my scalp, my eyes and face, neck and ears. Even after taking my benadryl I didn't stop itching until 4:00 in the morning.

I suppose that nothing will be done about this but I am hoping that parents will watch for cereal with soy products in it and I think you will only find it in the all natural section but watch for soy in there too. write the company and tell them to make sure that there is not any genetically altered beans in the cereal.

just a joke tonight

Eat for the health of it.

Two guys are hunting and they are dragging their dead deer back to their pickup truck. Another hunter comes along pulling his dead deer along and he comments to the other two hunters,"Hey,I don't want to tell you guys that you are doing it wrong but if you drag that deer in the other direction, the antlers won't dig into the ground."

After a brief rest the two hunters drag the deer along and after awhile the one hunter says to the other, "You know, that guy was right. This is a lot easier."

The other responded,"Yes, but we are getting farther away from the truck."

How to care for those aching feet

Eat for the health of it.

If you are a mailman or mail lady after a day of delivering mail you may want to elevate them. Soak them in a tub of very warm water with a few tablespoons of epsom salt and a 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar.

If you have a lot of tea bags and you want to use them up before they get too old just steep 4 bags in some hot water and add them to your foot soaking water.

Massaging the feet is also revitalizing, or better yet if you can get your spouse to do it for you and take turns.

Try sitting on a chair and point your toes down as far as you can. Circle your feet around in circles both ways.

Try rolling your bare feet on a ball for awhile.

It's always best for everything if you eat healthy too. Try my all natural cookbook GRANDMA'S BACK TO BASICS ALL NATURAL MORE THAN JUST A COOKBOOK ISBN#0-8059-6286-7. Phone at: 1-800-788-7654.

Laughter is healthy:

I may have told this one before but I thought it was really funny and worth a repeat:

This old man is ice fishing and after an hour or so has caught nothing. He is sitting on his camp stool by the hole waiting for a nibble when a young boy comes and makes a hole in the ice next to the old man. The young fella puts his fishing line in the hole and in no time he has a fish. The old man watches as the boy repeats this over and over. The old man finally asks the boy what he is using to have such good luck.
The boy responds, "Roo raf roo reep ra rums rrarm."
The old man says, "I can't understand a thing you are saying."
Again the boy responds,"Roo raf roo reep ra rums rrarm."
The old man says again,"I can't understand you."
The boy spits in his hand and says,"You have to keep the worms warm!"

Laughter is healthy:

Two avid fishermen go on a fishing trip. They rent a boat, equipment: rods and reals, wading suits and, of course, the cottage and the car. They spend a small fortune, but they are having fun.
The first day they get up early and go fishing all day. They don't catch a thing. On the second day they go out a little later and they fish most of the day and don't catch any fish so they go back to the cottage. This goes on for a couple more days.They are about to give up and the day before they leave for home, they catch a fish.
As they head for home the driver looks at his friend and says,"You know, this one lousy fish we caught cost us $1500."
The other guy says, "Wow!It's a good thing we didn't catch any more!"
