Recipe for a Happy New Year
To leave the old with a burst of song To recall the right and forgive the wrong; To forget the thing that binds you fast To the vain regrets of the year that's past; To have the strength to let go your hold Of the not worthwhile of the days grown old, To dare to go forth with a purpose true, To the unknown task of the year that's new; To help your brother along the road To do his work and lift his load; To add your gift to the world's good cheer, Is to have and to give a Happy New Year.

Sad that some countries turned down Israel's
offer for help.
Israel has more experience than anybody in
finding and retrieving bodies.

I just read off Kydto news wire just now now I reading on BBC wire that they think 60,000 while Sky news saying more than more like 66,000
70,000 is pretty bad if Kydto wire is right
Depend on what wire you surf
Speaking of wire service Interfax has interview with Jailed Yuko oil chief he claim that Vlad stole his company
YEAH probably for back taxes and he got busted on oil for food scandel with Fox news
Speaking of Fox news there is report that back in da day Russians were connect to oil for food scandel with smuggling Russia oil to Iraq
OH OH

I'm working on the remote control thing for the new DVR. The directions leave something to be desired.
