THE LAPTOPS ARE BACK!Due to the ENORMOUS success of the free laptop promotion, we have
brought it back for June!

To anyone who joins our RSM team in June and promotes to RSM
within their first 30 days (with all the quick start points active for each
of their team members, of course!) we will award a FREE LAPTOP!

As far as I know, every RSM in my downline is offering the same thing
to the reps in their RSM codes as well. If you have any question about
it, contact me.

Tell your prospects not to wait! They need to hop on board NOW so
that they will have the rest of the month to use this as an
incentive to help them build THEIR teams!

YES, this is retroactive back to June 1! So anyone who has already
joined in June will be eligible!

Get on the phone and let all your prospects know how they can get
a free laptop!

June is already shaping up to be ANOTHER AWESOME month!

YOU GUYS AND GALS ARE AWESOME!

Together we all will WIN in 2010!Linda Gracyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014193196456715377.post-40496685336417463632010-05-06T21:52:00.000-07:002010-05-06T22:16:39.989-07:00GET REGISTERED NOW FOR FORTUNEFEST!HURRY, HURRY, HURRY!

Get registered NOW for Fortunefest coming up in Lexington, KY, Sept 2-4.

Register online at http://www.fhtm.net/

The "Early Bird" Price is only good through next Friday, May 14!

The rooms are already sold out in the host hotel! The company is in the process of negotiating special rates in some of the surrounding hotels, and we will let you know as soon as we find out something on that.

In fact, Paul said that this will be the last year we'll be able to have Fortunefest in Lexington! We've simply outgrown the hotel capacity in the city.

You DO NOT want to miss this event!

You do not want to miss the last chance to attend Fortunefest in the city where you will be able to tour the home office while you're there.

Your belief level will go through the roof, and you'll learn so much from the different speakers. You will meet so many great people who will help you build your business. You will form lasting friendships with other reps from around the country.

Every expert on network marketing (or pretty much any kind of business, for that matter!) will tell you that the successful people are the ones who show up for the corporate events!

It's just a fact. If you want to be successful in your FHTM business, you will want to be in Lexington Sept 2-4.

I can't begin to explain to you how much it will do for you and your business for you to BE THERE!

Don't worry about the logistics now. Make the commitment, while the early bird price is available, then we can help you work out the details later!

See you in Lexington! :-)Linda Gracyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014193196456715377.post-85397301418980304182010-05-03T21:20:00.000-07:002010-05-03T21:31:42.222-07:00PAUL'S DONE IT AGAIN!!!!OH MY GOSH!

(With qualifying customer points active.)

AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT. . .

The company is also going to give an EXTRA $500 bonus to any RSM who makes double bonus in the month of May! That's ON TOP of the double bonus!!! Not to mention that hitting double bonus in May will also put you on track for the next FREE TRIP, which will be to Los Cabos, Mexico, in October!

IT JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER!

MARCH MADNESS HAS BEGUN!

Mike Misenheimer,
along with other great prizes!

Use the March Madness Video Blitz to
EXPLODE YOUR BUSINESS IN MARCH!

As Mike said last night on the special team call that he held for us, there's no reason in the world that anyone on the call can't make $5000 or more in March!

Everyone should have received the email with the contest rules, forms to use, and the challenge for the first week. If not, send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com and request them.

Also, in case you didn't hear, Paul Orberson has extended the $500 Quick Start bonus for March! Anyone who joins in March and promotes to RSM within their first 30 days, will earn an extra $500 bonus! Likewise, Terry and I have extended the FREE LAPTOP offer through March for anyone who SPONSORS someone who earns the $500 bonus! (As always, each new rep must be qualified with 3 active quick start points.)

Get busy NOW using these promotions, so that the people you sponsor can have the rest of the month to also use them to build their teams! THESE PROMOTIONS WILL DEFINTELY END MARCH 31!

of us in NW AR than the Millionaire Boot Camp in Columbia, MO that
we got snowed out of in January!

OK City is only about 3 1/2 hours away, so there's NO EXCUSE for us
to not all load up and head over to OK City for Feb 26-27! This
will be a LIFE-CHANGING event!

Mark your calendar to BE THERE!!!! Rally your whole team to be
there, too! If someone just can't get off early enough on Friday
afternoon to be in OK City by 7:30, they could still come over for
the full day on Sat.

We will be getting a convoy together to leave here Friday afternoon
and probably return after the event Sat evening, so that we'll only
need to spend one night in a hotel. We'll also check around for
some great rates. Let me know if you want to ride with us or have
room in your vehicle for extra riders.

Also, if you know anyone in the Ok City area, this will be a great
event to get them to! If you are not close enough to Ok City to
be there yourself, you can arrange for Terry and me to meet them
there for you.

Here are the details as listed at fhtm.net:

THIS WILL BE A LIFE-CHANGING EVENT! DO NOT MISS IT! DO NOT LET
YOUR TEAM MEMBERS MISS IT! The most successful people in any
company are successful because they attend the company events and
soak up the training, energy, emotion, and mindsets from the leaders
and other reps at the events! Attending this event is the best
thing you can do for your business!Linda Gracyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014193196456715377.post-75782430897571811332010-02-16T19:51:00.000-08:002010-02-17T19:13:31.464-08:00WOW! TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THESE NEW PROMOTIONS:

AWESOME!! INCREDIBLE!! CAN YOU SAY STUPENDOUS?!?

1) The company has brought back the $500 cash bonus for anyone who
joins in February - retroactive back to Feb 1 - and promotes to RSM
within their first 30 days.

Since the company is offering the $500 bonus for brand new people,
Terry and I have thought of a way to offer the free laptop to those
of you who are ALREADY in the business! So, for February 16 - 28,
here's the bonus we're offering to anyone in our RSM code (and
anyone in the RSM codes of any RSM's who participate with us):

2) Any manager in our RSM code who PERSONALLY SPONSORS
someone between Feb 16-28 who makes RSM within their first 30
days will earn a free laptop from Terry and me! Yep, that's the
SPONSOR that earns the laptop! SO . . . who do you know that is RSM
material? Let's get them signed up ASAP and help them promote to
RSM within their first 30 days. THEY will earn the $500 cash bonus
from the company, and YOU will earn the free laptop! (OR even more
than one - you will get a free laptop for EACH one you personally
sponsor who earns the $500 bonus! You could even keep one and use
the extra(s) as prizes to offer to YOUR team!)

Point out to your prospects that THEY can also earn both prizes by
joining NOW - the $500 by promoting to RSM within their first 30
days, and the free laptop by personally sponsoring someone by
Feb 28 who also promotes to RSM within THEIR first 30 days!

Let's pull out all the stops and make the last two weeks of February
your BEST TWO WEEKS EVER! Let's ALL be a part of the leadership
group who goes to Atlantis in June!

Together We WILL WIN in 2010!

To your massive success,

LindaLinda Gracyhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014193196456715377.post-34708525173133051712010-02-16T19:47:00.000-08:002010-02-16T19:50:52.510-08:00We're BAAAAACK. . . and more ON FIRE than ever! What an
incredible week as we visited with our friends and other leaders
in the company on the Leadership Cruise to the Bahamas.

Congratulations to all of you who were on the leadership cruise
with us! We had several couples from our team on the cruise, but
I'm not going to start naming names because I don't even know for
sure everyone that was there and I don't want to leave anyone out!
Some of them we met for the first time on the cruise. That is SO
MUCH FUN, meeting new team members from other parts of the country!

I wish EVERY one of you could have been on the cruise with us! It
was the most incredible experience of our entire "working" lives. . .
with many more such experiences to come! If you could only have
been there, and experienced the incredible emotion of being part of
the group, you'd be working this business like your hair's on fire!

YOU CAN BE ON THE NEXT LEADERSHIP TRIP! It will be to Atlantis, on
Paradise Island by Nassau. (For those of you on Facebook, check
out the pictures Terry posted. We scoped it out on our excursion to
Nassau, and it is OUT OF THIS WORLD! YA GOTTA BE THERE!)

To make the trip, you need to GET BUSY NOW! The first step is to get
to RSM ASAP if you're not already, then DOUBLE BONUS in February!
YOU CAN DO IT! Even if you just joined yesterday, it is possible
for you to make the trip! Give it ALL YOU'VE GOT for the remainder
of February! Let us help you! Don't think you can't, BELIEVE THAT
YOU CAN! The worst that could happen is that if you try and don't
make it, you'll be in a great position to EASILY make it for the
NEXT trip! But set your goal for ATLANTIS IN JUNE! LET'S DO IT!
We want YOU on that trip with us in June!

Together we will all WIN in in 2010!Linda Gracyhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014193196456715377.post-84227784344413040632010-02-05T11:22:00.000-08:002010-02-05T12:06:18.485-08:00********** TWO NEW PROMOTIONS FOR FEBRUARY 1-15 **********

What an incredible event. There were probably close to 1000 people there. They had to double the room size by opening up the wall to incorporate the next banquet room over.

We had 13 people from our team who made the 3 hour trip from NW AR or SW MO to be there. Many of them had to be back at work first thing Friday morning, but all agreed it was well worth missing a little sleep to get to be there and meet Paul!

Mike Misenheimer did an awesome job with the business presentation before Paul spoke, and that was the first time some of our group had had the opportunity to hear Mike speak in person. They also got to meet some of the people in person who have been helping us a lot with wrap-up calls, such as Wayne West and Kevin Maxey.

As always, Paul stayed and met each person individually, posing for pictures (we'll get some posted online soon!) signing autographs, and visiting with all the reps.

Paul also bought dinner for our team after the meeting! That was a fun surprise! I guess he wanted to express his appreciation for our coming such a distance on a week night. He just loves to make generous gestures like that.

Before the meeting, some of us Executives met with Paul for about an hour. He swore us to secrecy, and shared many exciting new things that the company is going to be announcing around the first of February. You are going to be SO EXCITED! For one thing, the increase in pay is going to be HUGE! We were all just amazed!

To quote Mike, "It just Keeps getting gooder and gooder!"

Have NO DOUBT WHATSOEVER that you are in the RIGHT PLACE at the RIGHT TIME with this company!

I just get goosebumps thinking about it!Linda Gracyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014193196456715377.post-352128905998490852009-12-23T12:27:00.000-08:002009-12-23T12:34:27.252-08:00What a GREAT TEAMWOW . . . Our team is having an awesome month of December! We just finished a great meeting Monday night with Presidential Ambassador, Mike Misenheimer, doing our presentation. How incredible is that!!! He was amazing. Everyone was ready to sign up all over again after he was through sharing with us. EVERY GUEST in attendance either joined on the spot or promised to do so in the next week or so. It was amazing. We have so many Managers and Regionals in the NWA area that are simply on fire and gaining momentum with their teams right now that it is just crazy.

Everyone that has any contacts in the Kansas City area needs to get to work with their potential business partners and get them to Mike's next presentation in that area on December 29th. We are going to make plans to be there too. This is a great opportunity for you and your team. The last time that Mike Misenheimer spoke in Kansas City, over 150 new people joined the team!

So, take CHRISTmas day off, and then get to work getting people lined up to be at the Kansas City meeting on the 29th of December. We will see all of you there.Linda Gracyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014193196456715377.post-7220203810885387162009-12-17T20:53:00.000-08:002009-12-17T21:03:30.008-08:00WOW! Mike Will Be In Bentonville Monday Night!

WOW!!!For those within driving range of Bentonville, AR:

We just got off the phone with Mike Misenheimer. He volunteered to come to Panera Bread next Monday night, Dec. 21st to do the business presentation for our team!!!!

That's Mon, Dec 21, 6:30 pm

Panera Bread, 14th & Walton, Bentonville, AR

WOW. This is your big chance to jump start your team! Mike always does such a great job that pretty much everyone who attends will join on the spot!

As they say on the streets, "We need to represent !!!"

Everyone in the NWA area needs to go to work right now on your "chicken list" or VIP list and get as many people as possible to the meeting Monday night. This is a great honor for him to come to personally do this for you.

You will be kicking yourself if you don't each have 10 guests there. We will start at 6:30 sharp, so you and your guests need to be there EARLY in order to get a seat.

Last Tuesday in Kansas City, Mike did a presentation and over 150 joined that night! GET READY!

Get your prospects there and you can blow this thing up!

As you know, 100% of the guests whom you PICK UP AND BRING WITH YOU will actually show up!

WOW...you should not be able to sleep the rest of the week!

To your massive success,

Linda

We made friendships that will last a lifetime. Fortune has allowed us to make hundreds and hundreds of friendships that are way more important than any financial successes that we make with our company.

To say that we were blown away by everything that Ruel shared with us would be an understatement! Ruel is such a great leader and communicator. He spoke from the heart as he tried to motivate us that the sky is the limit with our company. Each of us now believes that it is just a matter of time, as we help others, that our realities are fast becoming bigger than our dreams. Ruel has helped us to realize what we are capable of. He has given us a tremendous vision for helping people.

This was such a wonderful experience, as Ruel shared his home and welcomed us in as famliy. We sat down and ate meals with Ruel, his wonderful wife, Angel, and his two children. They made us feel so welcome. This will probably be the thing that we will remember most. That being, how Ruel opened up his home and shared the things that are personal and important to him, with us. We were able to see the true loving nature that this great man pours out to each of us. He is even a greater husband, father, and Christian than he is a successful businessman. That is a tremendous legacy that each of us would love to emulate in our lives. We are truly humbled and honored to have the opportunity to spend time with Ruel, and call him our friend.Linda Gracyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014193196456715377.post-19754477946230822902009-10-21T19:28:00.000-07:002009-10-21T19:32:29.141-07:00Texas Here We Come!Woo Hoo! Terry and I have been invited to spend 3 days at Ruel's ranch (Yellow Rose Ranch) next Mon - Wed! We can't wait!

Ruel has business presentations at the ranch every Monday evening, so we will be there for the next one!

WHO DO YOU KNOW IN TEXAS??? Go to Mapquest.com and do a "get directions," and find out how far they are from the ranch! If they're within a couple of hours, invite them & we will meet them there for you!

If you only know the name of the town they are in or near, that is enough information to do a Mapquest search. The ranch is near Hawkins, TX, so if you have anyone within a couple of hours of that, let me know and I can get the exact address to you!

I want to get a HUGE team going in TX! And having Ruel's meeting to plug into every week would definitely be a huge benefit to anyone's Fortune business!

Put on your thinking cap! I'm sure you know SOMEONE near there! :-)

Let me know what you come up with!

Your Massive Success,

For those of you who are in the NW AR area, or know someone who is, remember, we have booked the room at Panera Bread this Sat, 10/10 from 2:00-4:00. That's at the intersection of Hwy 102 & Walton, across from Ruby Tuesday's. We will start with a business presentation, followed by training. Panera has free internet, so if you want, feel free to bring your laptop if you have any questions about any of the websites, or how we do online presentations, etc.

Bring all the guests that you can! If you can, show the dvd or online presentation to them BEFORE Sat (using a 3rd party validation phone call of course!) then bring them on Sat. Hopefully they will join BEFORE Sat and come bringing guests of their own! :-)

Yes, I know (NOW!) that the Razorbacks are playing at 11:30! Terry never ceases to be amazed at how I can fail to check the Hogs' schedule before booking FHTM events! But I had to take the room when it is available, and that was the only choice! I'm sorry!

Call us and schedule when we (meaning Terry til my voice comes back!) can help you hold some appointments. If you're not in our area, don't worry - we can do them by phone/internet!

1) First of all, OMG!!! Please DO NOT EVER MISS another Fortunefest! Please make the decision NOW to be at the next one in the spring. If you're married, definitely bring your spouse as well! It will just change your life! There are just two per year . . . and you CAN BE THERE if you will just make the decision to be! Going to Fortunefest will pay for itself MANY times over! When you attend the corporate events, you meet the people who are MAKING IT HAPPEN in a BIG WAY, and their belief and success just rub off on you! You will be far more successful and make more money just from having attended! Not to mention just having a ball!

Terry and I came back from Lexington MORE IN LOVE WITH THIS COMPANY than ever! There is NOT ONE molecule in either of our bodies that is not 1000% sure that FORTUNE is THE PLACE TO BE! Please KNOW beyond any shadow of a doubt that you are in the RIGHT COMPANY at the RIGHT TIME! (In fact, I know of some independent instances in which a word of prophecy was given to some of our top leaders by perfect strangers that "This company was created for such a time as this." (meaning, the current economy.) Paul said that he wants Fortune to lead the country out of this recession! And I believe it will!

Also, if you were there you got to see Aaron Decker propose to his girlfriend on stage. (Her answer was "A thousand times, yes") It was awesome. You just had to be there. There was hardly a dry eye in the place!

2) There were FIVE new products/services launched! FOUR of the five count as quick start points! It is making it easier than ever for brand new people to easily find 3 QS points to activate their businesses. I am SO EXCITED about those that I am going to type up a separate post just about them.

3) Woo Hoo! The company has started a new "TRAVEL LEADERSHIP PROGRAM" whereby RSM's and above can earn three trips a year with Paul & Cheryl Orberson, Tom Mills, Jeff Orberson, and the top leaders in the company! They are VERY DO-ABLE requirements! Check them out at fhtm.net. The first trip will be a Caribbean cruise departing from Miami, FL Feb 9-12. I'm mentally packing my bags as I type!

4) We all just got a pay raise! You know the $5 you get for anyone who joins your manager code on levels 2-7 and the $10 on level 8? (As long as you have 5 customer points.) Well, they just went to $15 and $20, as long as you have 2 outside points among those 5! Thank, Paul! Those can really add up! (Remember, one way to get "outside points" is to put your order in your daughter's name and have them shipped to her house, like I did. lol They count as "outside" points, even though I pay for them with my credit card.)

5) There's a fabulous new Oct edition of Success From Home magazine on the bookstore shelves (if they're not all gone already!) with FHTM featured on the cover and throughout the whole magazine. They also have a great video in them. These are great for showing to prospective team members. Our own Matt & Sara Morse are featured in one of the articles. You can order copies from your back office. (You can also run to Barnes and Noble and stick your business card in every copy on the shelf!)

6) All the business presentation videos are being redone, but only two are finished and available for purchase. Those are Joel McNinch's and Todd Rowland's. Todd's especially is just incredible! (Joel's is good, too, but I don't think I like it as much as his old one.) I just placed an order for a bunch more of Todd's through my back office. (NOT to hand out to people! But to have one to give to each new team member when they join.) So far, of all the people we have shown it to, all but two have either joined or are in the process! It is SO good, and so professional that you could be proud to show it to any businessman, tycoon, millionaire, or whomoever. And of course Todd is so down-to-earth that you could also show it to any average ordinary person. When you watch it, he makes it such a no-brainer, that you think "Well, I'd be CRAZY not to join!"

Ok, go to your website back office right NOW and place your order for some of the new dvds. :-)

To Your Massive Success,

Hi all,
This may be the wrong forum to post my question, so I trust the Mod(s) will move it to the right one.
I did a Secunia vulnerability scan and it showed that Java (1.5 & 1.6) was insecure. I tried Add\Remove Programs and was unsuccessful. I tried CCleaner, EZClean and JV16 Power Tools and JavaRa, all to no avail: Ditto with M$ Installer Cleanup.
When I did a "Search", there were 93 Java entries; but after using the M$ Cleanup, there were only 78 entries.
When I searched the Registry, I hit F3 over 200 times and never made it out of HKCR\CLSID before I gave up.
Ideally, I'd like to remove everything Java related and start from scratch.
How do I do this?

When the government wants to boost the economy, you expect to hear about it from politicians, number-crunched news reports, CNBC analysts and — when things get serious — Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke.
You don't expect to get a check.
But that's exactly what President George W. Bush is thinking of sending us: A taxpayer rebate to give each of us a small syringe he hopes will give the economy a big "shot in the arm." Form the Associated Press story:
Lawmakers are discussing a $500 rebate for individuals, said aides to lawmakers involved in the talks, with details for couples and people with children still being negotiated. The rebates would likely be limited to individuals with incomes of $85,000 or less and couples with incomes of $110,000 or less, the aides said, speaking on condition of anonymity because no final decisions had been made.
How would you use the money?
Your responses might be used in the paper, so keep that in mind as you respond.

The Trench Warfare Mod is for Medal of Honor Allied Assault Spearhead(Spearhead is Required). It will still be based on WW2 but it will include new features, skins. maps, loading screens, and avatars. This is just a small amount of what will be in this mod. We plan for this mod to include Team Death Match Maps as well as Objective maps. The plan is to have an actual working 30. Cal. Machinegun for the allies instead of the MG42 which has been over used on allied sides. This mod has completed development and is now available for download. There are no more expected updates. I hope you all enjoy our mod.

I hate you
Is all she shows
I- hate you too
It weakly shows
That he loves her
Doesn't she know?
Are you busy?
Softly asks
No, why?
Come here
And he talks
He speaks to her in that language
(or melody)
That only those who love can hear
In the end
I love you
Please don't say you hate me too?
She smiles softly
Don't you know I always have?
Always will?
And then they kiss
From that day
I love you
I love you too
Is everywhere
People say
I always knew!
And smile behind their
Closed hands
Those two children?
Were always oblivious
But was it an act?

Another team, led by Kevin Luhman of Penn State University in State College and using NASA'S orbiting Spitzer Space Telescope, describes its study of HD 3651 in an upcoming Astrophysical Journal.
Eleven percent of known Kuiper belt objects, including three of the four largest, have small orbiting partners.
If the orbiting material ventures any nearer, it's doomed to fall into the black hole, never to be seen again.
The group measured the wobbles that the orbiting bodies produce in their respective suns.
The lightest of the three planets is at least 84 percent as massive as Jupiter and lies within roasting distance of, its parent star, orbiting at about one-tenth the distance that Mercury circles the sun.
But because the Doppler shift can only measure one component of motion--in and out along the line of sight--the extent to which it can reveal the true mass of the orbiting body depends on the tilt of its orbit relative to the line of sight.
Studying the star for more than a decade at the McDonald Observatory near Fort Davis, Texas, the team had discerned what appeared to be a wobble from the tug of an unseen companion orbiting the star every 7 years.
In other words, the planet hunters have now demonstrated that their detectors have enough sensitivity to find a Jupiterlike planet orbiting a sunlike star at a Jupiterlike distance.
Astronomers have found indirect evidence for another six planets orbiting nearby, sunlike stars.
According to one theory, the gravitational tug between two or more massive planets orbiting the same star may propel each into an elongated orbit.
If you were orbiting close to a neutron star, you would be orbiting 1,000 times a second, so to characterize what's going on, you have to have an instrument that can detect variations that occur 1,000 times a second," says M.

Furry puts the bandanna in his pocket and moves on, walking behind the cart.
Some reviewers gave her flak for relying a bit too heavily on her cue cards in this one, but at least she rocked the bandanna.
Drawing a bandanna handkerchief from a pocket he swiftly gagged the justice.
Charley wiped her face vigorously with her bandanna and nodded.
A bandanna handkerchief was wrapped about his head, concealing his hair and ears.
Blommers had made a tourniquet for Jimmy out of a bandanna and a peeled stick.
Suddenly Salzar tore the bandanna from his face, flung it down and stamped on it.
Bob loosened the bandanna from his throat and with it covered the face of the outlaw.
He filled the bottle and soaked the bandanna in the cold water.
The Captain lifted his hat and wiped with the bandanna his red forehead.

In 2014-2015 St. Ignatius parish engaged in a Year of Discernment, intentionally exploring how God is calling our community to work for justice together. As we prayed and listened to one another, it became clear that we were being called to work for ecological justice. As a parish, we seek to live into this commitment through being formed and transformed by the Gospel so that caring for creation leads us to living in solidarity with our sisters and brothers who suffer from poverty, displacement, or exclusion. Join us as we continue to live into this discernment and be changed in the process.
Not coincidentally, Pope Francis' encyclical was released in 2015:
On Care for our Common Home: Laudato Si'
He speaks to the relationship between ecological and social justice initiatives:
Today, however, we have to realize that a true ecological approach always becomes a social approach; it must integrate questions of justice in debates on the environment, so as to hear both the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor. (no. 49)
And on integral ecology:
When we speak of the "environment," what we really mean is a relationship existing between nature and the society which lives in it. Nature cannot be regarded as something separate from ourselves or as a mere setting in which we live. We are part of nature, included in it and thus in constant interaction with it. Recognizing the reasons why a given area is polluted requires a study of the workings of society, its economy, its behavior patterns, and the ways it grasps reality. Given the scale of change, it is no longer possible to find a specific, discreet answer for each part of the problem. It is essential to seek comprehensive solutions which consider the interactions within natural systems themselves and with social systems. We are faced not with two separate crises, one environmental and the other social, but rather with one complex crisis which is both social and environmental. Strategies for a solution demand an integrated approach to combating poverty, restoring dignity to the excluded, and at the same time protecting nature. (no. 139)

Read about the celebration of the 2017 Season of Creation in the Ignatian Solidarity Network
Ecojustice work takes many forms, but a main hub are Ecojustice Sundays held on the second Sundays of each month after the 10:30 AM Mass.
When: The Second Sunday of September to June after the 10:30AM Mass.
Where: The Xavier Room (next to the gym and cafeteria)
What: EJ Sundays are a chance to gather for justice-focused education and faith formation, conversations with other parishioners and opportunities to get involved with upcoming events and suggest your ideas of actions. For example, topics have included the Top Ten Takeaways from Laudato Si and the Works of Mercy, including Pope Francis' call for care of creation as a new work of mercy.
Why: Pope Francis wrote in Laudato Si that "living our vocation to be protectors of God's handiwork is essential to a life of virtue." These gatherings are meant to educate us and ground us in our faith and relationships so that we can go forth in love and action to live a life of virtue and work for ecojustice.
We hope that you will join us at our next Ecojustice Sunday gathering!
The following teams branch from the represent some of our most recent work:
As our conversation deepened around how to better respond to the youth of our community and our common care for creation, the St. Ignatius Fellowship formed. By sponsoring an adult who recently completed a year of service, the parish highlights his or her unique gifts and invests in the next generation of leaders in the Catholic Church. The position is intended to bring focused energy to listening, engaging, acting, and empowering the youth of our parish and our response to ecological concerns.
The primary goals for the fellow are to develop leadership through experiential learning and to foster spiritual and professional development. The fellow works part-time in his or her own area of professional interest that coincides with the parish's Jesuit mission—and part-time in a particular area of the parish in need of young adult leadership. The Fellowship term is for one year; however, it may be extended or renewed. Qualified applicants must have engaged in a year of service within the past two years and be able to identify the strengths they bring to a Jesuit parish and consider how they would like to share these gifts with the Church and greater community.
After opening the search to the community, the 2016-2017 St. Ignatius Fellowship was awarded to Tyler Wagner.
Tyler Wagner attended the University of Notre Dame after spending most of his childhood growing up in Eugene, Oregon. He graduated from Notre Dame in 2015 with a degree in Environmental Sciences before returning to Oregon this past year to serve as an Jesuit Volunteer. He served at Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon as the Food Justice Coordinator, working on food access projects in West Gresham and at a food pantry in the Cully neighborhood. He is passionate about ecojustice and has gotten involved with climate activism groups in Portland as well as the St. Ignatius Ecojustice Steering Committee.
Please join us in welcoming Tyler to the community. Show your support by sharing your ideas in person or in the box below, getting involved in Ecological energies in our parish, and offering financial support to the Fellowship itself.

How could we work together to make a difference? St. Ignatius uses about 4000 paper cups for coffee and donuts and other events each year. This leads to as much as 1000 pounds of CO2 emitted to the atmosphere, 1000 gallons of water used for production, in addition to the waste produced and financial cost. This provides us with a wonderful opportunity to Care for Creation as we invite you to bring your reusable coffee cup or travel mug to Mass with you for use during coffee and donuts. You are welcome to store it in your pew. We encourage you to do this each week as one small way to respond to the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor and to take a step away from the throwaway lifestyle from which Pope Francis calls us. Together we can share in mindful community at coffee and donuts and make this change to lovingly care for creation.
Pope Francis reminds us that the "environmental challenge we are undergoing, and its human roots, affect us all." We invite you to share with us how the changing climate is affecting you, your family or your friends. Whether that is near or far, in large ways or small, are there people in your life that are being affected by severe weather events, rising sea levels, drought and other climate changes? Please share your story with St. Ignatius Fellow, Tyler Wagner at email@example.com or 503-777-1491 x237 so that we may offer our prayers and come to better understand and know each other.

Artist Chris Jordan on his series "Running the Numbers"
Running the Numbers looks at contemporary American culture through the austere lens of statistics. Each image portrays a specific quantity of something: fifteen million sheets of office paper (five minutes of paper use); 106,000 aluminum cans (thirty seconds of can consumption) and so on. My hope is that images representing these quantities might have a different effect than the raw numbers alone, such as we find daily in articles and books. Statistics can feel abstract and anesthetizing, making it difficult to connect with and make meaning of 3.6 million SUV sales in one year, for example, or 2.3 million Americans in prison, or 32,000 breast augmentation surgeries in the U.S. every month.
This project visually examines these vast and bizarre measures of our society, in large intricately detailed prints assembled from thousands of smaller photographs. Employing themes such as the near versus the far, and the one versus the many, I hope to raise some questions about the roles and responsibilities we each play as individuals in a collective that is increasingly enormous, incomprehensible, and overwhelming.

Papal encouragement for large families
February 15, 2012
Pope Benedict XVI gave his wholehearted encouragement to large families during his regular weekly audience on February 15.
"In today's social environment, families with many children are witnesses of faith, courage and optimism, because without children there is no future," said the Pontiff. He added that large families are "a source of wealth and hope for the entire country."
The Holy Father made these comments as he acknowledged the presence of members of the Italian National Association of Large Families in the audience.

On March 7, the Church honors Sts. Perpetua and Felicity, early Christian martyrs and mothers. Perpetua was a convert to Christianity who was born to a noble pagan family. She was martyred along with her maid and friend, Felicity, in Carthage in 203 A.D.
The two women were arrested and imprisoned, along with three other Christians. Perpetua was 22-years-old, with a son a few months old; Felicity was pregnant at the time of the arrest. Their only crime was converting to Christianity.
The account of their martyrdom and courage, The Suffering of Perpetua and Felicity, is one of the earliest historical accounts of Christianity. It is one of the great treasures of martyr literature, an authentic document preserved for us in the actual words of the martyrs and their friends. Perpetua wrote a vivid account of what happened.
"While I was still with my companions, and my father in his affection for me was trying to turn me from my purpose by arguments and so weaken my faith, 'Father,' said I, 'do you see this vessel—water pot or whatever it may be? . . . Can it be called by any other name than what it is?" No,' he replied. 'So also I cannot call myself by any other name than what I am—a Christian.' Then my father, provoked by the word 'Christian,' threw himself on me as if he would pluck out my eyes, but he only shook me, and in fact was vanquished…. Then I thanked God for the relief of being, for a few days, parted from my father . . . and during those few days we were baptized. The Holy Spirit bade me after the holy rite to pray for nothing but bodily endurance."
While she was imprisoned, Felicity gave birth to a girl, who was taken and raised by one of her sisters. Perpetua wrote regarding her, "She rejoiced in the health of the child, for now she was free to be martyred: from blood to blood, that is, from motherhood to single combat, for after the birth she would be washed by a second baptism, that is to say, in her own blood.
"The prisoners turned their last meal into an agape, a love feast, and spoke of the joy of their own sufferings thereby astonishing most witnesses, and converting some.
On the day of Games, Perpetua and Felicity went to the amphitheater "joyfully as though they were on their way to heaven," as Perpetua sang a psalm of triumph. When the guards attempted to force the captives to wear robes consecrated to Roman gods, Perpetua challenged them: "We came to die out of our own free will so we wouldn't lose our freedom to worship our God. We gave you our lives so that we wouldn't have to worship your gods.
"The three male martyrs threatened the crowd, including the procurator who had condemned them, with the judgment of God, thereby enraging the crowd.
The men were attacked and killed by bears, leopards, and wild boars. A wild heifer was sent against the women. The heifer tossed Perpetua, who got up, straightened her hair, and helped Felicity regain her feet. Absorbed in ecstasy, Perpetua was unaware that she had been thrown, and did not believe it until Felicity showed her the marks on her body. Having survived the animals, the women were to be executed. They exchanged a final kiss of peace. A nervous gladiator tried to kill Perpetua, but failed to finish the job until she guided the knife to her throat.
Perpetua — Cattle, death of children, martyrs.
Felicity — Death of children; martyrs; sterility; to have male children; widows.
Saints Perpetua and Felicity, watch over all mothers and children who are separated from each other. Help all of us to follow your example of faith and courage. Amen.

The four Tillerman children barely remember their father, and their mother is slowly losing touch with reality. One night, she wakes her offspring in their ramshackle house on the dunes in Provincetown, Massachusetts, tells them to pack some clothes while she makes sandwiches, loads them into the car, and heads towards Bridgeport, Connecticut, over two hundred miles away. Along the way, she stops at a mall parking lot, tells the little ones to mind the eldest, thirteen-year-old Dicey, and walks off without explanation. When it becomes clear that their mother will not be returning, Dicey sets out to shepherd her brothers and sisters to Bridgeport on foot, in hopes that their Aunt Cilla, who sends them Christmas cards every year, will take them in. With only eleven dollars and fifty cents among them, the children follow a tattered road map and manage to make it to their destination, eluding authorities and the dangers of the road, and scrounging for food and shelter wherever the opportunity arises.
In Bridgeport, the children learn that Aunt Cilla has died, and that the sole inhabitant of her house is their cousin, nervous and dithering Eunice Logan, who, at middle age, is contemplating entering a convent. Cousin Eunice reluctantly takes the four children in out of a sense of duty, but she is ill-equipped to raise them, and the children have trouble adjusting in an environment where they know they are a burden. When it is discovered that their mother is in a catatonic state in a mental hospital with little hope for recovery, Cousin Eunice begins to search for a separate home for the two youngest Tillerman children, admitting that she is not up to the task of caring for all of them indefinitely. Determined that her family stay together, Dicey saves up money she earns doing odd jobs in the neighborhood, gathers up her siblings, and takes to the road again, this time to find the only other family member that she knows of—their maternal grandmother, Abigail Tilllerman, who lives near Crisfield, on the eastern shore of Maryland.
Abigal Tillerman is a bitter, reclusive woman who lives on a run-down farm seven miles from Crisfield. Ab has no phone, and her only means of transportation is a battered rowboat on which she comes into town occasionally to get supplies; the locals think she is "crazy as a coot." Ab has received a letter from Cousin Eunice, and so has been forewarned that the children are headed her way. She is rude and unfriendly when Dicey and the others arrive, making it clear that they are not welcome. Ab does not close the door to them completely, however, telling them they can stay for one night. When she does not demand that they leave the next day, the children, with nowhere else to go, work busily at fixing up the farm. As the days turn into weeks, the Tilllerman children break through their grandmother's defenses, and as their relationship grows, find that they have finally found a place to call home.
Originally published in 1981, Cynthia Voigt's Homecoming is notable for its strong characterization and its perceptive and sensitive portrayal of human interactions. Feisty and unwaveringly honest, thirteen-year-old Dicey, forced by circumstances to grow up quickly, is an ordinary child who responds to difficult circumstances with uncommon doggedness and courage. Dicey's siblings—intelligent and anxious James; quiet, ethereal Maybeth, who has difficulties learning in school but has a singing voice like an angel; and the youngest, pugnacious and well-intentioned Sammy—are ten, nine, and six respectively, and are as interesting and engaging as their older sister. Readers will quickly be drawn into their lives and appreciate the caring bond that holds them together. Abigal Tillerman, or Gram, as the children come to know her, is an equally well-developed character, her virulently self-protective facade masking a painful vulnerability and a deep capacity to love. The book's appeal is increased by the author's distinctively colorful depiction of the eastern coastal area of the United States, and the lilting strains of the traditional folk songs that the children have learned from their mother and love to sing.
Homecoming is the first in a series of seven books about Dicey, James, Maybeth, and Sammy titled the Tillerman saga. The book has also been made into a movie, released in 2005 by Showtime and Hallmark Entertainment, starring the late Anne Bancroft as Gram.

The victim, 88-year-old Casetta Blunt, was found inside her Campfield Street home in Irvington.
She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Blunt, a longtime resident, lived alone in the home.
"I can't imagine somebody wanting to hurt her. I can't imagine such a nice lady, such a sweet lady," neighbor Jennifer Ogbur said.
Blunt was always working in her yard, always with a smile on her face.
She was that one person who everyone knew and loved. She was a treasured part of this neighborhood.
At this time no one has been charged, but detectives are talkiing to a person of interest.
"We wish to reassure the public that we believe at this time this was a targeted incident," said Acting Essex County Prosecutor Murray.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Essex County Prosecutor's tips line at 1-877-847-7432.

The government is being pushed by Congress president Sonia Gandhi to put the food bill on fast track as the Congress had promised a 'right to food' in its 2009 election manifesto, reports Anita Katyal
With Congress President Sonia Gandhi insisting that the Food Security Bill be implemented at the earliest, the United Progressive Alliance government will again explore the possibility of taking the ordinance route at Wednesday's meeting of the Union Cabinet.
The Cabinet had deferred its proposal to promulgate an ordinance on the Food Security Bill last month and instead decided to hold consultations with allies and Opposition parties for their support for the proposed legislation.
Home Minister and Lok Sabha leader Sushil Kumar Shinde, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kamal Nath and Food Minister K V Thomas were asked to conduct the consultations. There was also a proposal to convene a special session of Parliament for the passage of this bill.
With Opposition parties and allies like the Samajwadi Party expressing reservations about the bill, the UPA government is veering around to its old proposal of promulgating an ordinance. The government is also being pushed by Sonia Gandhi to put this on fast track as the Congress had promised a 'right to food' in its 2009 election manifesto.
With less than a year to go for the next general election, the implementation of the Food Security Bill has acquired special urgency. The Congress believes this legislation along with the Land Acquisition Bill and the Direct Benefits Transfer could prove to be a game changer for it in the 2014 Lok Sabha polls.
The Congress desperately needs a big bang idea or proposal to resurrect its sagging image. Sonia Gandhi is convinced that the Food Security Bill is the right choice. She, therefore, wants the bill to be passed as soon as possible so that its benefits can reach the people.
Although Sonia Gandhi was keen that a special session be convened for the passage of this bill, the proposal is no longer on the table as there is no time. The monsoon session of Parliament is slated to open by July 22.
Although there are only three weeks to go for this session, the UPA government is looking at the ordinance route as it wants to implement it immediately as it is convinced that Opposition parties will block the legislation in Parliament. An ordinance will present the Opposition with a fait accompli.
"If they allow the ordinance to lapse, the Opposition will have a lot of explaining to do to the people," remarked a senior Congress leader, adding that it will put them on the defensive.
The Congress will then be able to hold the Opposition responsible for blocking a pro-poor programme in its election campaign. It is hoping the Opposition will have no option but to support this legislation.
The bill that has been four years in the making proposes to provide cheap rice or wheat to 67 per cent population to be identified by the state governments.

On Wednesday, July 10, after celebrating a fantastic morning of sports, pupils, staff and parents officially unveiled the new outdoor classroom at Northolmes Junior School in Roffey.
Thanks to a donation from Roffey Fun Club, the hard work of the schools PTA raising money via various quiz nights, discos and this year's very successful Summer Fayre, the children will now be able to make more use of the school grounds during lessons.
Headteacher Miss Ashby commented: "It's a great addition to our school, giving us an outside, usable teaching space all year round, with enough room for a whole class at a time.
"The pupils are already really enjoying using the outside classroom for various lessons especially ones themed around the 'eco' parts of the curriculum"
NSA Chair Judith Fitter said: "The PTA have worked very hard this year to raise money for various outdoor spaces around the school with new playground benches installed, signs for the playground and flower beds planted with the new outdoor classroom the icing on the cake.
"Next year we will continue to help complete the landscaping around the new outdoor classroom with paving, paths and greenery."

What do you do when your dog wakes you while you are sleeping only to discover that
you are in the midst of having a massive heart attack? That's what happened to Mark
Hanrahan, 54, of Mequon, WI while he was sleeping. His Golden Retriever, Murphy O'Dawg, seemed to sense that something
was wrong. Murphy usually slept on the floor next to Hanrahan's bed; however, that
night, he repeatedly hit his owner with his nose until he woke up. Once Hanrahan
was awake, he knew exactly what was happening. He was in the throes of a massive
heart attack. When Hanrahan's wife entered the room, she "saw that (he) was gray
in color".
Emergency Technicians transported Hanrahan to Columbia Hospital in Milwaukee where
he was told he needed to have bypass surgery. Murphy's owner continues to recover
from the surgery and has radically changed his lifestyle. He quit smoking, eats
low-fat foods and Murphy takes him exercising every morning. They walk between 2
and 4 miles with Murphy keeping a close eye on him.
No one really knows what tipped Murphy off that something was wrong, but Hanrahan's
cardiologist suggested that "some dogs are sensitive to electrolyte abnormalities,
also known as hyponatremia, which occurs during a heart attack".
Because of his heroic deed, Murphy was awarded the title of Cardiac Rehabilitation
Assistance Dog by the Americans with Disabilities Act. Murphy's deed also allowed
his owner to be the featured speaker at the Washington County Heart Walk, which
is the American Heart Association's premier fundraising event.

The Whisper of TEMPTATION – Book 8 in the Girl on Fire Series
Remember: hearing is thought to be the last sense to
go in the dying process, so never assume the person
is unable to hear you. Talk as if they can hear you,|even if
they appear to be unconscious or restless." (Unknown)
Fingers press firmly but gently against my wrist. "Well, I have a pulse. Feeble, but it's there."
"Whew! That's a relief, doc. Whew!"
"So … what happened here, Davo?"
"Know my sister Liz, doc?"
"Yeah, yeah…?"
"Well, she's got this boy, Johno, big as an ox, strong too, but he's like, not all there in the head. Bit of a weirdo. Doesn't leave the house much. But at night, he goes walkabout with this metal detector thing, combs the place for treasure."
"Combing this place for treasure?" Chuckles. "Right!"
"Yeah, well, he does. Anyway, he tells Liz, 'Mum, I got me a new pet.' Liz goes to check it out, comes out screaming, 'She's dead! She's dead!' Screams for me. Asks me to get rid of the body. The corpse. Okay, I think, I gotta do something here. But when I see this … this … this thing – shit doc, she looks like she was from a horror movie. Covered in…I dunno – dirt and blood. Even her hair, blood and dirt, her mouth – blood and dirt. So, I check her pulse, I dunno why, but I check it, and I feel something. Faint, but it's there. I'm gobsmacked. What do I do? Can't call the cops – the boy will be arrested. So, I heard that you used to be a doctor a long time ago and all that. That's why I called you, hoping you can, like help us with her. But we gotta keep this quiet? You know what I mean?"
"Mm. She needs a hospital, though. She's probably not going to survive, Davo. The boy's done a good job on her, alright."
"Yeah … I was hoping you can fix her up here. There'll be too many questions if we take her to the hospital. Know what I mean?"
"Mm. But … what is she doing around here?"
"Dunno. Reckon she some sort of backpacker. Some foreigner. Exploring, got drunk, got lost …"
"You find any ID on her?"
"Nah, nothing. Just her. No bags, no camera, no nothing. Liz think she's from some boat. Some illegal. Refugee. The place is crawling with boat people."
"Reckon we can fix her?"
"Gotta take a proper look, Davo." I get a whiff of stale beer on my face. "How long has she been here?"
"Not sure, doc. Liz discovered her this morning and I called you right away."
"Pretty banged up, she is. Looks like Johno tried to slit her throat."
"Shit! Bloody boy is nuts. Should be in the madhouse. I warned my sister about him, but she don't never listen. Now look what's happened."
"Mm. Got a good few blows to the head too. Must have used a knife or something."
"Shit! Shit! Shit! That kid …man…"
"Yeah …"
There is a long silence as the hand probes my body, causing me to wince from the pain.
"So … what you think?
Another silence before the man with the beer breath speaks. "Davo, I'll do my best for … what do you call her again?"
"Love." A short chuckle.
"Yep, that's what Johno named her. Named his pet, doc. His pet."
A short chuckle from the man with the beer breath. "It's going to take a while to fix her. Plenty stitches all around, shave her head…"
"Truth be told, she's probably not going to make it."
"Yes. All you can do is make her comfortable, do what you can and hope for the best in cases like these."
"Yep. I'll do my best, though. Can't guarantee anything. You understand?"
"Yeah, sure I understand. Sure."
"Gotta any grog? This sure is thirsty work."
"Yeah. Been brewing heaps of it."
"Oh yeah?"
"Oh yeah. Heaps, doc!"
"Good. Run along and fetch me some, then."
A short while later, I get a fresh blast of booze on my face, before something sharp pieces into me, again and again. I scream in agony, yet not a sound escapes my lips. Why?
"She's moving. Hold onto her, Davo. Gotta stitch her up."
"Okay, got it, doc." My arms are held down tightly as the piercing continues.
The pain is so intense, I drift in and out of consciousness. The thing that remains throughout this ordeal is my hearing. I hear every word they say.
"See what your boy's done, Liz?"
"She's got no business being here in the first place, Davo. No business at all." The woman's voice is mature and nervous. "This is private property. She got no business being here, unless … she wanted to steal something and –"
"Steal something? Here? Like what, Liz, what? Look 'round you. This place is a dump. Nothing to steal here. Nothing."
"Well …"
"Bottom line, Liz – the boy, he's dangerous. He tried to kill her, then he brought the body here to like, finish her off. Slice her up and who know – maybe eat her."
"Aw, shaddup, Davo. Johno's not going to eat her up."
"Liz, I'm telling ya over and over again – your boy, you gotta get him some help, man."
"You did that Johno? You tried to kill the girl? Huh? You did what Davo say you do?"
"No, mum, I find her like that," another voice says. A younger voice, more like that of a boy. "I find her in the dark, mum. Her phone, it make ring! Ring! and I hear it, mum. I put my metal detector on the ground and it go beep! Beep! Beep! I hear it mum."
"That's a lie, boy! She doesn't have a phone. Where's the phone? Huh?"
"See? There's no phone, boy. You killed—"
"Shh! Davo, I'll handle him, okay? I know my boy – he's harmless. Wouldn't even kill a cockroach."
"Oh, please!"
"He's my boy and I will handle him, not you. Johno, I need you to tell me the truth, son, did you hurt this … this …?"
"Her name is Love, Mum. She my pet. Where's her hair, mum? What you do with all her hair?"
"I'm telling ya, Liz; better do something or they are going to lock him up forever."
"Johno, son, listen to me, you have to be honest with me, tell me everything, the truth, now, okay?"
"Okay, Johno?"
"I hear her phone mum. I dig and dig and dig and I find them."
"Yeah, mum."
"Two women? Did you find two women?"
"Nah. Love and a man, mum."
"A man? Where's the man now, son?"
"He crawl away mum. He's gone in the dark. He's scary, mum. But Love, she not scary, so I bring her here. I wash her face, mum. Look."
"He killed the man, Liz. He killed him and he's lying about taking care of Love."
"Is true. I take care of my pet. I feed it water and I give it a blanket. Keep it warm. And sometimes I sing happy birthday to it."
I hear a long sigh.
"Okay, okay. I'll take him in tomorrow. In the meantime, just see what the doc can do for her. If she dies while I'm gone, bury her on the hill and put some leaves over her grave."
"Fine. Just take him away before you we all end up in jail because of him."|
"Yeah, yeah. And keep the shotgun close. That man who crawled out of the grave, he might come back looking for Love. Don't know what's gonna happen then."

7 'Sensitive' Men Reveal What They've Done to Their Wedding Photos After Their Marriage Dissolved
7 'Sensitive' Men Reveal What They've Done to Their Wedding Photos After Their Marriage Dissolved
Ever wondered what men do to their wedding photos once the marriage is over? I've interviewed 7 men regarding this question and here's what they had to say (names have been changed to protect the guilty):
1. John
John: "I've thrown all the photos in the garbage bin."
Eve Rabi: "You mean in the recycling bin? The paper bin?"
John: Nope. "She was garbage; she didn't deserve any form of recycling."
Eve Rabi: "Let me guess – she cheated on you?"
John: "No, I cheated on her."
Eve Rabi: "You cheated on her and you're calling her garbage?"
John: "Yup. With her best friend too."
Eve Rabi: "Christ, John, you are nuts."
John: "That's what everyone says."
2. David
David: "I accidentally got a box of wedding pics when we split up. Six months later she wanted them. I thought sweet, she obviously wants to hang onto the memories. It not so easy to get over me, eh? But then she said, 'I want to show my new guy how thin I was when we got married."
Eve Rabi: "Oh, that must have been disappointing to you."
David: "Nah. I sent them back to her."
Eve Rabi: "That mighty big of you, David."
David: "After I sprinkled apple juice all over her in the photos."
Eve Rabi: "You did not!"
David: "I sure did. And it felt damn good."
3. Daniel
Daniel: "Why do you want to know?"
Eve Rabi: "For my blog. I won't mention your name."
Daniel: "How much am I going to get paid for that kind of info?"
Eve Rabi: "Ten beer nuts."
Daniel: "Piss off."
4. Vonny
Vonny: "I have most of them with me because she moved into an apartment and had little space."
Eve Rabi: "Oh okay."
Vonny: "But the best ones are damaged now."
Eve Rabi: "How?"
Vonny: "After she left, I used to look at them and cry. My tears, they ruined the best ones."
Eve Rabi: "Poor Vonny. It's great to find a sensitive guy."
Vonny: "Yeah. Can I get a hug?"
Eve Rabi: "Eh…no."
5. Eric
Eric: "I've given them up for safekeeping. Thought I'll save them for when our kids grow up. They will want to see how their mum and dad looked in their heyday, right?"
Eve Rabi: "That's sweet. Where are the photos?"
Eric: "At me mum's."
Eve Rabi: "But Eric, didn't your mum die a couple months ago?"
Eric: "Yeah."
Eve Rabi: "And didn't you pay someone to dump everything in her house?"
Eric: "Oh, shit, I forgot about that. Hey, you have some memory."
Eve Rabi: "You're a liar Eric."
Eric: "And? Your point is?"
6. Richard
Richard: "Oh, I have them all over my place."
Eve Rabi: "That's refreshing. Why? Your marriage is over, right?"
Richard: "Yeah, but I got hair in those pics. Not like now."
Eve Rabi: "I see. Kind of vain, isn't it?"
Richard: "You're a fine one to talk considering the tonne of make-up you're wearing."
Eve Rabi: "Make-up? Tons? What make-up? I woke up like this."
Richard: "Bullshit!"
Eve Rabi: "Seriously, I woke up like this."
7. Chris
Chris: "My new girlfriend tore them up."
Eve Rabi: "She did not."
Chris: "Oh, yeah. She was so jealous. But I got back at her. I dumped her iPhone into a glass of beer."
Eve Rabi: "You did not!"
Chris: "Then I called the cops on her."
Eve Rabi: "You did not!"
Chris : "You say that a lot, don't ya?"
Eve Rabi: "Say what?"
Chris: "'You did not.'"
Eve Rabi: "Mm."
And there it is folks. 7 sensitive men open their hearts out to us about their wedding photos.
"Riveting from beginning to end. The twists and turns this book takes are unimaginable. Love it and want more!" Amazon Reader
