Crying Over You

Some artists are the soundtrack of our lives...





Rest in peace, dear man. I can close my eyes and imagine your voice gracing heaven.

To Soothe The Weary Soul

These guys are really good. I love the backdrop...it choked me up.

The 10th

Happy 10th Wedding Anniversary husband!  The traditional gift is tin/aluminum, which I can live without :)  I'm allergic to tin and I have enough foil to last a year.

Ed the Weatherman once said it would be all over by the 5th!  His predictions were almost as accurate as the weather forecasters...not!

First Day of School-3rd Grade

Where does the time go? She's decided that she wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up. Oh, and an engineer! 

Coming Soon...

Trip to Israel, how I fractured my elbow, the Israeli health care system, things you never knew about Annie (hint: she lives in Israel!)

The whole of Israel is kosher (who knew?)

Everything closes on Shabbat, even the elevators.

Wine is cheaper than water in Israel (seems fitting somehow, no?)

Merry Christmas TCKT Family!

I love you all, and am wishing you a blessed, joyful, and peaceful celebration.

Water Is A God-Given Right.

Hand over your wallet, you evil taxpayers!

Garner said the reality is that nearly half of Detroit Water and Sewerage customers can’t pay their bills; and that has led activists to lobby the UN to step up and take action.

“If they do contact us we are willing to speak with them,” she said, adding “We owe it to the customers that are paying to collect from those that aren’t. Somebody has to pay for the water.”

And while Garner says water is “a God-given right,” she says there is a cost to move water from the water resource to the customer and that the infrastructure costs money.

Posted Kathy Ward, “This is just insane. If someone is that destitute that they truly cannot afford their water bill, there are already welfare programs in place for that. I’m guessing those same people not paying their water also have a TV, cable, I-phone, etc. People need to get their priorities straight, not expect another government handout.”

Ouchie. That had to hurt.

How wonderful...

 

Do not attempt to watch unless you have a box of tissues at hand.  Hat tip and thanks to annie.
