A SPECIAL REQUEST FROM MIKEY
Every year on Easter Eve (Saturday), my family meets with other families to
visit with injured recruits at Marine Boot Camp here in San Diego.
We give them a bunch of goodies, including letters from children to try to
encourage them in their healing process so they can fulfill their mission to
serve and protect our country as a US Marine.
Would you please let your friends, church, school, etc. know about this
project? We need 1000s of letters and your help is SO appreciated. Please
mail your letters to arrive by March 10, 2016.
Get more info here:

Thanks!

today'sFUNNY===========================
Now that I am getting older, I have done my research on retirement. I have
found that the average cost for a nursing home is $300.00 per day. I decided
that there must be a better way to deal with getting old and feeble yet
having my needs met. This is my recommendation:
I have found that I can get a nice room at the local Holiday Inn for $99.00
per day. That leaves $201.00 a day for food (brought directly to you by room
service), laundry, gratuities, and special TV movies. This cost includes use
of a swimming pool, a lounge, a washer and dryer, and a business center with
computers and a copy machine plus a free continental breakfast. They provide
free shampoo and soap along with toothbrushes, toothpaste, and razors as
required. I will have daily maid service and a free USA Today Monday through
Friday. When I do decide to eat in the restaurant, I see different people
every day, not the same old fogies that I would see in the dining room of a
nursing home. If I join their frequent travelers "Priority Club," I will
soon accumulate enough points to get a DVD player or a free trip to Hawaii.
There may be a bit of a wait to get a first floor room, but that's okay
because most of the time it takes months to get into a decent nursing home.
The Holiday Inn has a handicapped equipped bus (if you fake a good enough
limp), access to a church bus, cabs, and even the regular bus. Occasionally,
for a change for lunch or dinner, I can take the airport bus and eat in one
of the restaurants there.
Holiday Inn has security at night and if someone sees you fall, they will
call an ambulance that should arrive promptly in five to seven minutes,
quicker than the time it would take to get medical help to you in a nursing
home. They have 24/7 visiting hours. As a bonus, they offer senior
discounts. What more can you ask for?
My conclusion: When I reach those golden retirement years, please help me
keep my grin. Just pack my bags and drop me off at our local Holiday Inn.

A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from
a simpler system that worked just fine.
