What are "MP Houses" Peter?....my your looking an bit devilish these days.

By the way, the little gal above, her grandfather's name was "Peter" and he was a real estate salesman, having lost his office nursery job also, and he died of an heart problem...before I even had mine. She will never get to know her grandfather, he was an fine man. The church was packed, and it was an large one, the day they had his services. She also has an little sister.

Thank you Babs, but even I know England couldn't take us all...but it's nice to know we'd be welcome if and when we came.  Many Amiercans aren't going south to much these days, for one thing they find themselves "hostages" for ransom, you know some people think all Americans are loaded with money...hardly true.

Hi Shirley. MPs are members of perliament. AT the moment over here, they are in the news for claiming money for second homes that they are not entitled to.

I am feeling very devilish Shirly. Lol

I think I saw something about that recently on the news also comw to think of it. You don' t really think the devil is in "pink" do you?...laughs*  Of course it is an bit different from most devils.... and I think there was one about "Wearing an blue dress" in an song. Costume party I take it at some time. I have no idea how many people up here along that Mexican border have died so far, but 10,800 people down there its like an major disaster of its own.

Oh, stereotyping eh? Well, people have a stereotypical view of me purely because of where I come from, but hey, what do I care about ignoramous people? I don't give a jot! LOL! You can come here without money, I'll still like you!

Why thank you Babs, I see your humanitarian. I was watching an video clip yesterday about the "Hot Dog Man"...he goes around to the poor side of town and gives out lunches, chips, and drink and an hot dog or two.. he's changed one woman already, besides "Hot Dogs",,he just simply "cares" how these people are making it "daily" in life. Some of them are the way they are because they don't think anyone cares apparently. Why try? He's up to 300 lunches an week now. He says the Hot dogs don't cost that much. He does it on his own. Less then $40 in the hot dogs...though I think they said "loaves and fishes" is thinking about helping to sponsor him. Nice idea...it's easier for one hundred people to give one dollar, thne it is for one person to give $100.

Excellent!!! 

 

My friend Helen dyed her hair bright pink a few days ago. Last night, she had it all shaved off. All for raising money for Cancer charity. She's a brave, caring girland I applaud her because I wouldn't be!
