Beauty and Blondness can leak in parties better than Darkness and Clumsiness - Tiger Woods Blondes are safe !</b><br /><br />The Beauty of the Super Blonde Model that crashed the Party at the White House and that had her videos with the President, the Vice President and the Powerful Beautiful People of the "Beltway".<br /><br />She will never be tasered or sprayed by the police with chemicals. I think that she won't be beaten up in a Police Station.<br /><br />Mr Obama accused of being a Racist, Constantly ! ( by idiots )<br /><br />That is true ! .... And the Real Racists are those in Fox News that accuse Mr Obama of being a Racist.<br /><br />It is the same for the many angry politicians that accuse Justice Sonia Sotomayor of being a Racist or Backwards Racist, or PostRacist Racist, or Retro Racist, or Racist to the minus one power, or Reverse Racist or anything.<br /><br />Those Tom Tancredos, Newt Gingrichs, Rush Limbaughs, and the "Great Patriots" of Fox News are the Real Racists. Agitating the issue of Race, when there is nothing about it.<br /><br />The Harvard Professor may have been tired or crazy, but there was no reason to mistreat him. I bet that a Beautiful Tall Blonde Blue Eyed Professor would have had no trouble with those Boston Policemen.<br /><br />Hispanic Ladies driving a car have been tasered and sprayed or fumigated with chemicals for no reason, except that they were dark and spoke poor English.<br /><br />Some people have received traffic fines because of not speaking "Shakesperean" English. "To be or not to be". And they were not.<br /><br />That would never happened to the Beautiful Blonde that crashed the party at the White House. She will never be sprayed with Chemicals.<br /><br />And the female friends of Tiger Woods are completely safe. Look at the covers of magazines. Wow ! Wow !! ----- No Police or Traffic Police action against those Blondes and White Milk People.<br /><br /><a href="http://raciality.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"><strong>Raciality.com</strong></a><br /><br />Vicente DuqueDefensores de Democraciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01990488344886411353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5548695401579410439.post-61331580734416789352009-12-05T12:27:10.145-06:002009-12-05T12:27:10.145-06:00I recommend to my clients that they put together a...I recommend to my clients that they put together a notebook or dossier that lists the location of all important documents, the location of deeds or other evidence of ownership of assets,an inventory of assets (brokerage accounts, insurance policies, bank accounts, etc.) If a number of institutions like banks, brokerages, social security, insurance companies need to be notified, often form letters can be prepared in advance that leaves the person's name and the date on the letter blank. This facilitates matters dramatically especially under circumstances of grieving and making the final disposition of the deceased.<br /><br />Finally, everyone should have a will or a living trust. If most of one's property is jointly held with right of survivorship, it will pass directly to the joint owner outside probate. A will is a public document so one advantage of a living trust is that your assets do not become public. Of course,a living trust also avoids probate in the same way that joint ownership does. Some also use the POD approach on bank accounts and other assets. This simply specifies to whom these assets should be conveyed upon your death. That then occurs outside probate. Probate costs can be very high and my also take a significant amount of time.<br /><br />It may be useful to acqaint oneself with the estate tax return that may be required. At the moment only estates over $3.5 million are required to submit a tax return.<br /><br />A grandniece expressed to me the idea: "If you're not living on the edge, you're just taking up space!" That probably goes a little to far but it is true that when one can no longer contribute in any way because of physical or mental diminished capacity or if one requires extensive personal care and gets no joy from anything, it may well be time to depart.<br /><br />Some of these things are hard to think about and take the appropriate action as many have found out to their dismay. One has to recognize as Dee points out that "you must die" and make it as easy as possible for your loved ones by doing the necessary advanced planning for the inevitable. After all, that could be tomorrow or even this afternoon.ultimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13624967903736347171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5548695401579410439.post-19133014294527440042009-12-05T12:27:10.144-06:002009-12-05T12:27:10.144-06:00I believe the "death with dignity" movem...I believe the "death with dignity" movement is the appropriate answer even though it is contrary to some religious teachings. Everyone should have a medical power of attorney which allows someone else to make medical decisions on your behalf if you are incapacitated. A companion financial power of attorney allows your agent to make financial decisions on your behalf in that situation. One must be careful with the latter since a general power of attorney of this sort would permit your representative to sell any and all of your property and abscond with the proceeds or use them up under the authority granted by the POA.<br /><br />Most people with terminal disease do not wish to be a burden on anyone, especially their loved ones. They do not wish to have someone else be responsible for their most intimate bodily functions and malfunctions. When the end is near or when one is in unbearable pain, most would prefer to exit this life peacefully in the same way a treasured pet is mercifully put to sleep.<br /><br />Of course, this decision must be your own not that of a board or panel of any kind, nor should it be the decision of heirs who might benefit from your early departure for that great blog in the sky. A priest or minister or hospical omsbudsman should make known to the patient what his or her options are in this regard -- and of course those options need to liberalized. As a minimum, I believe everyone is allowed to refuse food and hydration. This hastens death obviously but is not quite as merciful as death with dignity.<br /><br />Everyone should indicate in writing how he or she wishes his or her remains to be disposed of: normal burial, cremation, ashes buried or scattered to the four winds, etc. Some singles elect to have their ashes interred at the foot of a parent's grave with a small marker. The VA will provide such a marker for veterans but arrangements will have to be made for mounting it in concrete. This writing should also indicate what if any arrangements have been made with the funeral home regading a memorial or funeral service and whether all the costs have already been paid in advance and where the any related documents, receipts, etc. are stored. If normal burial is preferred, it is a good idea to pick out the casket and vault in advance so that the funeral directdor does not prey on the survivor's sympathy to sell them a more expensive package deal.<br /><br />I helped my older siblings take care of all of these matters in advance so now the decisions have all been made and everyone can relax.<br /><br />One of the biggest mistakes one can make is to leave this world without letting someone know where your most important records are stored and what assets you own. Often people die and their heirs have no idea about either of the above.ultimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13624967903736347171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5548695401579410439.post-64394039966322226412009-12-05T06:18:16.857-06:002009-12-05T06:18:16.857-06:00Dear Dee :

It is political but it is also ethical.<br /><br />I am a guy that constantly fights with my Goose Feather and bottle of ink againt War and the WarMongers.<br /><br />So, I pray for a prompt conclusion to the Violence and the safe return of those fine youngsters of your family. That they return unharmed.<br /><br />And I express my deepest sympathies for your fight against Racial Violence, Racial Hatred, Racial Harassment and Profiling, unkindness and inhumanity<br /><br />You fight for understanding, kindness and humanity.<br /><br /><a href="http://raciality.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"><strong>Raciality.com</strong></a><br /><br />Vicente DuqueDefensores de Democraciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01990488344886411353noreply@blogger.com
