A new teacher was appointed to a Pittsburgh primary school.

Trying to make a good impression on her first day, she explained that she was a Pittsburgh football fan, and asked the students to raise their hands if they were too.

Everyone in the class raises their hand, except one little girl. The teacher looks at her in surprise and says, "Mary, why didn't you raise your hand?"

"Because I'm not a Pittsburgh fan," she replies.

Shocked, the teacher says, "Well, if you're not a Pittsburgh fan, who are you a fan of?"

"I'm a Cleveland fan, and proud of it."

The teacher can't believe her ears. "Why aren't you a Pittsburgh fan, Mary?"

"Because my mom is a Cleveland fan, and my dad is a Cleveland fan, so I'm a Cleveland fan too."

"Well," the teacher replies, rather annoyed, "that's no reason for you to be a Cleveland fan. You don't have to be like your parents all the time. What if your mum was a prostitute and your dad was a drug addict and car thief, what would you be then?"

"Then" says Mary with a smile, "I'd be a Pittsburgh fan"

It's about mosquitoes time folks -- so thought I'd send out this reminder!!!!

OK, mosquitoes... prepare to be repelled !!!!!

Use Bounce Fabric Softener Sheets .Best thing ever used in Louisiana.  Just wipe on & go. Great for Babies

Bob, a fisherman, takes one vitamin B-1 tablet a day April through October . He said it works. He was right. Hasn't had a mosquito bite in 33 years. Try it. Every one he has talked into trying it works on them. Vitamin B-1( Thiamine Hydrochloride 100 mg.)

If you eat bananas, the mosquitoes like you, - something about the banana oil as your body processes it. Stop eating bananas for the summer and the mosquitoes will be much less interested.

This is going to floor you, but one of the best insect repellents someone found (who is in the woods every day), is Vick's Vapor Rub.

Plant marigolds around the yard, the flowers give off a smell that bugs do not like, so plant some in that garden also to help ward off bugs without using insecticides.

"Tough guy" Marines who spend a great deal of time "camping out" say that the very best mosquito repellant you can use is Avon Skin-So-Soft bath oil mixed about half and half with alcohol.

One of the best natural insect repellants that I've discovered is made from the clear real vanilla. This is the pure Vanilla that is sold in Mexico. It works great for mosquitoes and ticks, don't know about other insects.

When all else fails--get a frog!

Fight West Nile... Pass this along to all your friends in 'skeeter land!!!

July 8th 1947 and its significance in our time.

 Many will recall that on July 8, 1947, witnesses claimed that an unidentified object with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico. This is a well-known incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S. Air Force and the federal government. However, you may NOT know that in the month of March 1948, exactly nine months after that historic day:

  1.  George W. Bush,
  2. Dick Cheney,
  3. Donald Rumsfield,
  4. Bill O'Reilly and
  5. Rush Limbaugh,

 were all born. See what happens when aliens breed with sheep. This piece of information may clear up a lot of things.
