“One Man’s Opinion”
Part I
Identity Theft is REAL. I was checking one of my checking accountsthe other day and noticed some charges I didn’t recognize. I knewthey weren’t mine because they were in CALIFORNIA. The first wasfor $12.00 at a Wal-Mart in Oakland, since that one went throughthey went back and spent another $65.00. That one went through too, so then they went to Jack-In-The-Box in Alameda and had lunch.
They spent a total of $90.00. I have two debit cards on that account and both of them were in mywallet and the one they used hadn’t been used for over a month. How did they did it? I have no ideahow they got the number and I’m not sure if they had the name. But it happened. I was lucky tocatch it quickly and I will get my money back, but it makes you leery of using a card online or looking
over your shoulder every time you use an ATM with all the scanners and scammers and who knowswhat. All I an say is check your accounts often and BE CAREFUL.
Part II
I’ve never been a big fan of American Idol, but I caught a glimpse a few weeks ago when my wifeJoan was watching when that kid Joshua Ledet was singing. He really caught my attention so Imade it a point to watch him each week or catch him on the DVR. I must say that listening to himand seeing/hearing the emotion he puts in each of his songs is more than impressive.
There have been a number of singers that I like, Michael Jackson, Gil Scott Heron, Beyonce, B. B.King, Bobby “Blue” Bland, Peggy Scott-Adams, Millie Jackson and many more, but NONE of them, Irepeat NONE of them, touches me like his singing does. If by some chance he doesn’t win, I’d beshocked. I’ll even go so far as to say, when his first album comes out, and he will have one, I’ ll BUYIt. Yes, I said it, no Bootleg, I’ ll go to the store and BUY It. With the internet and being able to findalmost any song you want, I can’t remember when I bought any music, but this time I will. So for thefirst time, I’m recommending, go online to AmericanIdol.com and vote for this kid. I already have….,a number of times.
Just, One Man’s Opinion.“Live Long and Prosper”

“Educators are valuable, Transmitting Knowledge
to Generations.Effective in expanding minds through Warmth and
Dedication.They prepare students to Thrive towards Erudition.Big-heartedness recognized with Certainty and
Celebration.”
As the 2011-2012 School Year wind to a close manygraduation ceremonies will be of high emergence.Prom season in full effect with limousines added as
an accessory. Tux and gowns are clean to the nine
(So Fresh & So Clean). Caps and Gowns are a hotitem. To add, many parents, grandparents, aunts, un-cle and whoever the guardian may be are beamingfrom ear to ear, shining brighter than the sun on a
hot Sunday morning!
Think about it parents, you made it through twelveyears of blood, sweat & tears to assure your baby(ies) will be in that number. Now
the time has finally arrived for you to witness theevolution of
your loving child stepping forth to receive that hardearned diploma or degree. The keys turned out a build foundation of prayers paid through dividends
of faith.
Now that our nation students have been recognized,
let’s eye those leaders that set the path for our stu-dent’s success of graduating this 2011-2012 School
Year.
Who is our Valued Commodity? Who is able to lead
among leaders? Who is capable of building leaders?Who can build careers? Who assist students tosearch out resources? Who can be a Mentor? Ana-
lyze this, for decade’s doctors, lawyers, librarians,astronauts, authors, accountants, sport stars, news-
casters, politicians, and the majority of any career,was grown and manifested through one profession;“A TEACHER / EDUCATOR!”
To our nation teachers and professors, this is your
Que! Tirelessly & unselfishness day in and day out,committed to the student’s advancement. Praying before and after class every single day of the year!
Some of us will never know the challenges teachersface daily as they educate our children past day care,
kindergarten, and elementary, middle, high school,undergraduate and graduate school.
Cutbacks, economics, and diminish resources, have
created drastic measures and conditions caus ing edu-cators to use an imagination outside normal con-straints. Imagine being low on the totem pole of salaries. A sport star paid millions more than an
educator?
TO OUR AMERICAN EDUCATORS!“THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR BEING
A GREAT INFLUENCE, MAKING A HUGE
IMPACT & CREATING AN ENTHUSIASMFOR ALL WHO ARE WILLING TO LEARN.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME, ENERGY, &FRIENDSHIP. WHAT WOULD WE DO WITH-
OUT YOU,
“OUR VALUED COMMODITY!”

Things You Do Not Want to Happen at
Your ATM
- You go to get a balance inquiry, and insteadof printing out a receipt the screen says: "Not
worth wasting paper", and ejects your card.
- You try to get a balance inquiry, and thescreen says: "Account not found." and keepsyour card.
- You insert your card, and try to get somecash, and the ATM laughs and spits out your shredded card.
- You withdraw some money to pay some bills, count it, and the screen says: "What,you thought there was some EXTRA there?HA!", and ejects your card clear across theroom.
- You think you've got $100 in your accountand go to take out $50, and the screen says:"Not in this lifetime." and laughs as you bangon the machine, trying desperately to get your card back that the machine has taken.
- You go to the ATM, and there's a picture of you a-la-"Most Wanted" staring forlornly atthe ATM camera with a caption that reads:"Wanted for trying to get water from a drywell."

A farmer was driving along the road with aload of fertilizer. A little boy, playing in
front of his house, saw him and called,"What've you got in your truck?"
"Fertilizer," the farmer replied.
"What are you going to do with it?" asked
the little boy.
"Put it on strawberries," answered the
farmer.
"You ought to live here," the little boy ad-
vised him. "We put sugar and cream onours."
When I returned home from college for a
break, I noticed a paper posted on the refrig-erator. It listed some goals my dad had set for himself: Help wife more; lose weight; be more productive at work.
I promptly added: "Send Michelle money
every month."
A few days later my brother wrote: "Make
payments on car for Jason."
Then my boyfriend joined in with: "Buy Tom a Jeep."
Finally my father added a new goal to hisamended list: "Wean kids."

A man was on holiday in the depths of Lou-isiana, where he tried to buy some Alligator shoes. However he was not prepared to paythe high prices, and after having failed tohaggle the vendor down to a reasonable pricelevel, ended up shouting "I don't give twohoots for your shoes man, I'll go and kill myown "croc!," to which the shopkeeper replied,
"by all means, just watch out for those two"ole boys" who are doing the same!".
So the man went out into the Bayou, and after a while saw two men with spears, standingstill in the water. 'They must be the 'ole boys'he thought. Just at that point he noticed an al-ligator moving in the water towards one of them. The guy stood completely passive, even
as the gator came ever closer.
Just as the beast was about to swallow him,he struck home with his spear and wrestledthe gator up onto the beach, where severalwere already lying. Together the two guysthrew the gator onto its back, whereupon oneexclaimed "Darn! This one doesn't have anyshoes either!"

- I wonder if other dogs think poodles are membersof a weird religious cult?
- If you think dogs can't count, try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket then giving Fido only two of
them.
- In order to keep a true perspective of one's impor-tance, everyone should have a dog that will worshiphim and a cat that will ignore him.
- No one appreciates the very special genius of your
conversation as the dog does.
- Outside of a dog, a book is probably man's best
friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.
- People that hate cats will come back as mice intheir next life.
- Things that upset a terrier may pass virtuallyunnoticed by a Great Dane.
- Thousands o f years ago, cats were worshipped asgods. Cats have never forgotten this.
- We wonder why the dogs always dr ink out of our

A police recruit was asked on an exam, "Whatwould you do if you had to arrest your ownmother?"
In the blank, he wrote, "Call for backup."
A young man asked an old rich man how hemade his money.
The old guy fingered his worsted wool vest and said, "Well, son, it was 1932. The depth of the Great Depression. I was down to my last
nickel.
"I invested that nickel in an apple. I spent theentire day polishing the apple and, at the end
of the day, I sold the apple for ten cents.
"The next morning, I invested those ten centsin two apples. I spent the entire day polishing
them and sold them at 5:00 pm for 20 cents. I continued this system for a month, by the end
of which I'd accumulated a fortune of $1.37."
"And that's how you built an empire?" the boyasked.
"Heavens, no!" the man replied. "Then mywife's father died and left us two million
dollars."

Some men in a pickup truck drove
to a lumber yard. One of the menwalked into the office and said,
"We need some four-by-twos."
The clerk asked, "You mean two-

truck.
He returned shortly and said,
"Yeah, I meant two-by-four." "All

The new Librarian decided that instead of checkingout children's books by writing the names of borrow-
ers on the book cards herself, she would have theyoungsters sign their own names. She would then tellthem they were signing a "Contract" for returning the
books on time.
Her first customer was a second grader, who lookedsurprised to see a new Librarian. He brought four books to the desk and shoved them across to the Li-
brarian, giving her his name as he did so.
The Librarian pushed the books back and told him tosign them out. The boy laboriously printed his nameon each book card and then handed them to her with
a look of utter disgust.
Before the Librarian could even start her speech hesaid, scornfully, "That other Librarian we had couldwrite."

He opened he opened his newspaper and startedreading. A couple of minutes later he asked the
priest, "Father what causes arthritis"?
"Mister, it's caused by loose living, being with cheap
wicked women, too much alcohol and contempt for your fellow man."
"Geez, I'll be darned," uttered the drunk and returnedto reading his paper.
The priest, thinking about what he said turned to theman and apologized.
"I'm sorry son, I didn't mean to come on so strong.
