- First, I think the birth sign is wrong. 6-21, some papers say Gemini, some Cancer. Guess that means I have so many personalities that I can do group therapy alone. For those that don't know how to read Google profiles I have put what I really mean in ( ). Hot (Good looking enough to be in movies(if I buy at ticket). A body like a God (Buddha). Romantic (Thinks begging is foreplay.) Physically fit (Heart trouble. Put 911 on speed dial before we get initmate.) Good Provider (has good life insurance in case you forget to put 911 on speed dial.) Loyal (has reference letters from Mom and parole officer.) Intelligent (scored 1600 on his SATS but you have to total the scores of the four times that I took the test.) Looking for someone compatible (Be between 30 & 99 and not inflatable.)

Bravo to Yusuf Hamied! Anything to bring the costs of drugs down.
And a few more bravos to the girl who's questioning (and sometimes praising) her school lunches. Freedom of the blogger, by golly!
So lucky that the piece of rock art was done with charcoal so they could reliably date it. It's so amazing that they can do that at all.
Let's just celebrate your birthday. Many happy returns!
Hi Pat
I admire Yusuf, there are a lot of things he could do with his money and I think he made the right choice.
The little food critic should be free to eath and criticize!
I was stunned how they determined the age of the rock.

Hi Mary Z
Thanks for the wishes, a good way to start the celebration!!

I'm with Pat - yea to Hamied. The sad truth is many in our country can't afford the drugs that would give them relief from pain, possible slowing of many diseases and additional quality of life. It's pretty obvious the pharmeceuticals want the money. They say for further research, but I suspect a look at their profit lines and the gov't and agency grants they get would tell a different story.
I'd seen something about Martha earlier. Kudos to her for both her blogging about lunches and, especially, for the increase in donations for meals for those who can't afford them.
I also agree with Mary - have a great birthday and many more!
Hi DR
Pharmacy companies are after the almighty dollar and imho create shortages on purpose to up the cost. That is why some cancer drugs have been hard to get. We just need more Harried's in the world.
And more Martha's would help the world too.
Thank you for the nice birthday wishsed.
Bill
