Yes, we're all inundated with activist
emails, petitions, donation requests every day. It gets tiring, it's
hard to think about all that's gone wrong in our country the last few
years. But if you have the heart and time for it, there is invaluable
information and there are ongoing activist opportunities. We can't do
it all. Just do what you can.

Hermann Goering on War :
The people can always be brought to the
bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them
they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of
patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in
any country.

WHEN A MAN

he makes a pretty small package.

DON'T WORRY
about people stealing your IDEAS. If your

are any GOOD, you'll have to RAM

Diet advice:
The Japanese
eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks
than the British or Americans. The French eat a
lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than
the British or Americans. The Japanese drink
very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks
than the British or Americans. The Italians
drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer
fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.
Conclusion:
Eat and drink
what you like. Speaking English is apparently
what kills you.
