--> Mark Twain once said, "The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is to read the obituary column in my local newspaper. If I don't find my name in there, I start my day." -- And just about everyone alive is looking for their fifteen minutes of fame. -- If they do get their names in the papers, they feel like rich notables or heros. -- Ferinstance: -- "The largest obituary ever written was in The New York Times and was during the height of the Depression; 4-1/2 pages long, for Thomas Alva Edison." That brought color back into his cheeks and took him out of his depression.. He felt years younger.. his old bones were invigorated and ALIVE!!

STROKE: Remember the 1st Three Letters.... S.T.R. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks.
Seriously..
A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke... totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.
RECOGNIZING A STROKE - Thank God for the sense to remember the '3' steps, STR - Read and Learn! Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. - Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
S * Ask the individual to SMILE.
T * Ask the person to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) - (i.e. "It is sunny out today.")
R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.
If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call 911 immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. New Sign of a Stroke ---- ---- Stick out Your Tongue - Ask the person to 'stick' out
his tongue.. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the
other, that is also an indication of a stroke. A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved."

Apparently I tend to brag too much about my home state of
Ohio. One day I told a long-suffering friend, "You know,
the first man in powered flight was from Ohio. The first
man to orbit the earth was from Ohio. And the first man on
the moon was from Ohio."
"Sounds like a lot of people are trying to get out of Ohio,"
he observed.

"When you became a leader you took charge in changing your destiny."
|
-- You will find that doing nothing will cost you money. Do something useful with your lives. Stop crying about "Why don't they.." The fact is: When you were born, the first thing they did was to slap you on the toosh to get you to cry. This put air in your lungs so that you could breathe and become alive. -- "You've been crying ever since. Control yourselves." -- In the Military they have a trite saying: "If he ain't bitchin' - he doesn't feel he's alive." -- When you became a leader, you took charge in changing your destiny. -- The inventor produces a destiny.. He or she creates the product for the manufacturer when a manufacturer steps in when needed, -- to then hand the product off to the large distributor and wholesaler, -- to the ultimate retailers who sell to the end users. -- Of course there's the many others who benefit from your invention: the sales marketeer and his agents, the insurance broker, plant superintendants, foremen, production workers in the factory; the product packers, warehousemen, vehicle drivers, repair mechanics, office workers, the tax collector, etc. -- And then you need to deal with advertising and sales promotion. -- Which brings in accountants and legal advisors. -- Whether you sell one item or shut down for a day or week, the rent goes on. -- -- Heating, cooling, gas, electricity, grass cutting, painting, parking-lot striping, toilet tissue, cleaning products, etc. -- Have you gotten the idea that being in business is costly? It sure doesn't leave room for fatal mistakes. -- Thus the smart business budget with upscale computers having spreadsheets for inventory control, the damage that may happen, employee theft and strikes, product depretiation -- your competition forcing competative pricing and sudden obsolescence. -- Isn't it a wonder, when an inventor thinks that just because he invented the damn product, that he deserves 50% of the profit? -- No way!! Likely 5%
