When my great grandmother died, her last words were, “Look at the beautiful light.”

This was in the 1940’s.

As my elderly father in law lay dieing he said:”Where’s my mother? I can hear her but I can’t see her.” Of course his mother passed on years before he did.

there needs to be a law that says anyone who advocates forcing their views on others needs to be flogged until they pass out. next time they do it flogged until dead.

Interesting on what people see as they’re dying. Some are beautiful and some are scary. What did Steve Jobs say “Oh Wow Oh Wow”

Sweet story. When my grandfather died ( he was a devout Christian) he opened his eyes and said “ oh look at this beautiful place, the flowers are just beautiful-oh why there’s grandma! “ and then passed.

“Gates should have been tending his company.”

Nah, he owns enough republicans to cover that.

He gives most of his $$$ to democrats, except for lobbying, supported Obama, is a fan of amnesty.

TOP ISSUES LOBBIED, 2012

1. Taxes
2. Immigration
3. Telecommunications
4. Computers & Information Tech
5. Copyright, Patent & Trademark

Most of you likely know all the above. But do you know who some of his biggest lobbyists are? That might surprise you.

[SNIP]”Yesterday, Grover Norquist’s weekly Americans for Tax Reform conclave was the venue for an announcement by Suhail Khan that he was becoming director for external affairs for Microsoft. Khan’s transformation into a corporate lobbyist comes amidst rising concerns in conservative circles about his longstanding family and personal ties to the Muslim Brotherhood (MB or Ikhwan) in America and his positions in favor of such MB priorities as building the Ground Zero mosque, closing Guantanamo Bay.... dissembling about shariah, etc. “

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2011/04/07/Microsoft-Reaches-Out-to-the-Muslim-Brotherhood

THAT would be the same Muslim Brotherhood appologist Suhail Khan, CPAC organizer & board member

AND Grover Norquist, CPAC organizer , founder of the Islamic Institute & Microsoft lobbyist.

Sam Kinison died as a result of a car accident. He was pulled from the car and people were trying to help him but no one knew he was dying. He appeared to be speaking to someone who wasn’t there when he took his last breath.

>> “Bill says there are great innovations taking place in food production that can create delicious plant-based meat substitutes that mimic the taste and texture of meat” <<

.
Much as Microsoft Windows mimics the function of a real operating system.

In both cases, that is where the similarity ends. Taste and texture are not nutrition

Interesting story. Always thought he’d make a good AC/DC singer - his speech was like the lead singer. Both had this gravely way of speaking.

It all fits in.

Gates started his business in crime with a stolen disk operating system, and dug deeper from there on.

When did he turn vegetarian? I know he used to chow down on meat back in the days he and Ballmer were at regional shows pushing the Green Microsoft boxes with early Excel, various compilers, and so on.

“.... the production of meat is responsible for over half the greenhouse gas emissions in the world.”

That’s why I kills them livestocks and eats’em, Billy.
