A Kids Reply
A teacher was giving a lesson to her young students on the circulation of blood in their bodies.
Trying to explain the lesson clearer, she told her class if I stood on my head, the blood as you know would run into my head and I would turn red in the face.
"Yes," the class said.
"Then why is it that while I am standing upright position the blood doesn't run into my feet and make them turn red?"
A young boy shouted, "Because your feet ain't empty."

Bush and a visit to New Zealand
A visit to New Zealand by United States President George W. Bush is being actively considered in Washington.
The visit would follow his attendance at the annual Apec summit in Sydney on September 8 and 9.
Would you like George Bush to visit NZ?
Here is a selection of Your Views:
Dave (Auckland CBD) New Zealand customs would never allow well known terrorists into the country, so why let Bush? He is responsible for the hundred's of thousands of deaths in the middle east since his "coalition" of killers invaded Iraq, just so "Daddy and friends" can get their hands on the oil and also make enormous amounts of money in arms dealings. Bush is not welcome in NZ! Let's not let the evil monkey set foot in God zone!
Martina (Auckland)We should not be giving Bush the impression that he is welcome here, because he is obviously not. I would resent us funding his useless little visit, too.
Richard I would welcome Bush into NZ, he is very welcome here. And I hope our Government gives him the welcome he deserves and arrests him, and charges him with war crimes and crimes against humanity. This war criminal should be treated like all war criminals.
Steve Schoenberg I would favor Bush visiting only if we promptly arrest him for war crimes. Providing he is in jail, I would favor him staying a while.

John W No thanks! The only place Bush deserves to visit is a court for war criminals, along with his blood-soaked greedy mates Rove and Cheney.
For every 100 girls
There are a lot of interesting facts with U.S. Census data to back it up.
For instance:
For every 100 girls that are conceived 115 boys are conceived.

For every 100 girls diagnosed with a learning disability 276 boys are diagnosed with a learning disability.
For every 100 women enrolled in college there are 77 men enrolled.
For every 100 women ages 18 to 21 in correctional facilities there are 1430 men behind bars.

'PREDATORS' TO WALK
A Texas district attorney has refused to prosecute any of the 24 alleged pedophiles ensnared in a sting filmed for NBC's "Dateline: To Catch a Predator" series.
Among those caught last year in Murphy, Texas was a prosecutor from a neighboring county who committed suicide when police showed up to arrest him.
The Murphy city manager who approved the operation lost his job in the ensuing furor. And now the local district attorney is refusing to prosecute any of the 24 remaining men, saying many of the cases were tainted by the involvement of amateurs.

Sexy Car Wash Advertising
A COUPLE have been ordered to remove their cheeky car wash firm slogan that promised: “The best hand-job in town.”The sign on the side of a lorry also showed a bikini-clad blonde soaping down a pink Cadillac.
But councilors in Goole, East Yorks, branded it inappropriate and Soapy Rides owners Nigel and Michaela Kennings, both 37, were fined £400 with £600 costs by magistrates.
Michaela, 37, said: “It’s absolutely ridiculous. The sign has caused great amusement to customers.
“We are surrounded by old warehouses and this brightened up the area.”
A council spokesman said: “We asked a number of times for the sign to be removed.”
How smart are you?
I got 19 out of 25 right with out cheating.
How many can you get right?

Inflation - Most things have gone up in price...
Of all the items listed below, the price of only one item has gone way down since Bush took office. Everything else has become much more expensive.
Dozen eggs
Gallon of Gasoline
Health Care
Gallon of Milk
8-ball of cocaine
College Tuition
Loaf of bread
That one thing is cocaine. Now I'm not really an economics expert, but I do make sure to watch both Fox News and Lou Dobbs in order to get both sides, so I think I know what I'm talking about. The lower price must be because all the money being spent to destroy these drugs in Colombia is making Americans feel guilty about continuing to buy it - and the demand is dropping. And since President Bush makes everyone cherish life so much, the demand for things we need to live is going up. As a result, the terrorists are getting much less money for their drugs than they were just 5 years ago while good people are getting wealthier.
