Just A Cup of Tea 

ONLY A MOTHER WOULD KNOW... 

  ~A Cup of Tea ~  One day my mother was out, and my dad was in charge of me.  I was maybe 2 1/2 years old. Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a gift, and it was one of my favorite toys.  Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when I brought him a little cup of 'tea', which was just water. After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my mom came home.  My dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!'  Mom waited, and sure enough, here I came down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy; and she watched him drink it up.  Then she said, (as only a mother would know), "'Did it ever occur to you that the only place she can reach to get water, is the toilet?"

FW: The Italian Dam...

This is the Diga Del Cingino dam in Italy -  but look closer... see spots on the wall of the dam? 

They are European Ibex. They eat the  moss and lichen and lick the salt off the

wall of the dam.

The Farmer's Almanac is predicting a very cold winter.  It must be true because the squirrels are gathering NUTS.  Three of my friends have disappeared.  Are you O.K.?

FW: HOW TO READ BAR CODES

Subject: Fw: HOW TO READ BAR CODES

  Check this out. Good Info!!!!!----- Original Message -----

          ALWAYS READ THE LABELS ON THE FOODS YOU BUY--NO MATTER WHAT THE FRONT OF THE BOX OR PACKAGE SAYS, TURN IT OVER AND READ THE BACK---CAREFULLY!

With all the food and pet products now coming from China , it is best to make sure you read label at the grocery store and especially Wal-Mart when buying food products.

Many products no longer show where they were made, only give where the distributor is  located.

It is important to read the bar code to track it's origin.

How to read Bar Codes .... interesting!

This may be useful to know when grocery shopping, if it's a concern to you.

GREAT WAY TO "BUY USA   &  CANADA " AND NOT FROM CHINA!!

The whole world is concerned about China-made "black hearted goods".

Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or  China ?

If the first 3 digits of the barcode are 690 691 or 692, the product is MADE IN  CHINA.

471 is Made in Taiwan .

This is our right to know, but the government and related departments never educate the

public, therefore we have to RESCUE ourselves.

Nowadays, Chinese businessmen know that consumers do not prefer products "MADE IN CHINA ", so they don't show from which country it is made. 

However, you may now refer to the barcode - remember if the first 3 digits are:

690-692 ... then it is MADE IN  CHINA

00 - 09 ...   USA   &  CANADA

30 - 37   FRANCE

40 - 44  GERMANY

471 ...  Taiwan

49 ... JAPAN

50 ...   UK 

BUY US A & CANADIAN MADE by watching for "0" at the beginning of the number.

We need every boost we can get!  Pass this on to everybody on your E-Mail Contact List!! 

If the government won't help us, we MUST help ourselves.

  Subject: How old people park their cars !!!

  This old guy parks his car like a stunt man, leaving the onlookers wondering exactly how he did that without hitting the other cars parked nearby. Please don’t try this at home as Grandpa is a trained professional driver. Another funny candid camera prank from the Just For Laughs crew.

1910 Ford Model R

Show this to your friends! This will boggle your mind, I know it did mine! The year is 1910, one hundred and two years ago. What a difference a century makes! Here are some statistics for the Year 1910: ************************************************************************************************************** The average life expectancy for men was 47 years. Fuel for this car was sold in drug stores only. Only 14 percent of the homes had a bathtub. Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone. There were only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles of paved roads. The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph. The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower ! The average US wage in 1910 was 22 cents per hour. The average US worker made between $200 and $400 per year.

Subject: Fw: Green Bay Picture (not shown on CBS) Too Controversial????

    Those who attended the game said it was extremely emotional to see the entire bowl of the stadium turn red, white and blue. It took 90 workers two weeks to get all of thecolored pages mounted under each seat.

Each piece of card board had eye slits in themso the fans could hold up the colored sheet and watch the game through the eye slits.

Monday night 11/14/2011  Lambeau Field This is what ESPN failed to show you Monday night, 11/14/2011. Apparently, they thought their commercials were more important than showing this scene for about 5 seconds.

Forward this to as many people as you can so that they can see this incredible display!!!

FW: Fw: New Trend in Supermarkets

Subject: Fw: FW: New Trend in Supermarkets

  A while ago a new supermarket opened in San Antonio , Texas . It has an automatic water mister to keep the produce fresh.

Just before it goes on, you hear the sound of distant thunder and the smell of fresh rain.

When you pass the milk cases, you hear cows mooing and there is the scent of freshly mowed hay.

In the meat department there is the aroma of charcoal grilled steaks with onions.

When you approach the egg case, you hear hens clucking and cackling, and the air is filled with the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs frying.

  The bread department features the tantalizing smell of fresh baked bread and cookies.

    I don't buy toilet paper there anymore.
