Give Free Rice To Hungry People

I just realized that I haven't visited Free Rice for a few weeks. What a shame!

I say what a shame because every time I play the word game over there and
get a right answer , the United Nations provide 20 grains of rice for the
hungry people of this world.

So I'm going to fix that right away and make a note in my Agenda to visit this
site every morning.

Do You Know That Your Dryer Can Cause A Fire ?

Do You Know That Your Dryer Can Cause A Fire ?

I just found out this morning that the lint in your dryer vent
can cause a fire in your house. What a shock to me! I had no idea
that this could happen.

I clean the vent that is on top of my dryer but I never thought of
cleaning the soft tube that is connected to the dryer and goes outside.

A Few Wise Words From Dear Martin Luther King Jr.


"Darkness cannot drive out darkness;
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate;
only love can do that."

"A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom."

Walking



I just came back from a very invigorating walk.
The colors are magnificient at this time of
the year in Ontario, Canada.

When I came home I had this urgent desire to listen to
Nana Mouskori's song about September.



Is the fall your favorite season too?
