Sponsored by: St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Working together under one roof, physicians and scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have pioneered treatments that have helped push the overall survival rates for childhood cancers from less than 20 percent in 1962 to 80 percent today.

Love and Laughter Through The Tears We fell so deeply, our souls enter-twined, we are eternal, through the seeds of time, You have given me laughter, through pain and sorrow, I still receive the humor, through the breeze that flows, Your time on earth ended, I filled with tears, I see and feel your ...

As we are near this years end close we all take a moment to reflect on things that have happened and occurred. In the world as events had unfolded but mostly we sit and reflect on our past year. I truly believe everyone does this if not they really should. Reflection is not a way to take stock of our faults or others. It is not a time to remember the not so kind person that have passed through our lives. It is a time to reflect things had personally occurred to us in our lives the things we shall remember of this year that will come past. I look back at my friends how glad for the new one's I have acquired and very happy to have my old ones so present in my life. When I was dancing with the devil they were right there by my side. Keeping me from jumping off that cliff and wanting to give up and call it a permanent day in life forever. They made me laugh and even cry.

Since 2006 at the end of each year I list my biggest irritations of the year. So here we go the biggest ones I have endured for the years close. I am sure everyone has seen the jeep commercial.

They hop in their jeeps because nothing is going to stop them from driving their jeep. Okay no woman that I know of in her right mind will spend that time getting their hair done and blow it all to hell just to drive their jeep. Had to been a male who thought of that commercial. Best Buy commercial now I like Best Buy I got this computer there. However, I know for a fact we don't pull up to best buy wondering what to buy someone and have a group of Christmas caroling employees belt out a song that tells what it is we want. Geico commercial is not any better here. Grant it some are cute. The one with the boss...
