good talk

Recently I donated my annual $500, not much, to the ASPCA and I expect this of each of you. I've now qualified for blood donation 7 times in a row as I use deep Yoga breathing to control my blood pressure, I've now donated 28 times in Las Vegas and twice in San Diego. Only 6% of the Adults in this country donate blood largely due to fear of a little needle being so craven is a serious problem go see the Wizard. At the 1976 Montreal Olympics Shirley Babishoff of the U.S. (whose coach was Mark Schubert who I remember from a Phys. Ed. Class at Akron Firestone) accused the East German Swimmers, particularly Cornelia Ender who won 4 Gold Medals, of being on Performance Enhancing Drugs. The American Media dubbed Shirley a Poor Sport and a Sore Loser as they despise the Truth, she became a mailman. On January 9, 1998 a truckload of pigs was delivered to a slaughterholuse in Wiltshire, England. Pigs are very intelligent and know when they're about to be killed sensing their imminent doom 2 of the male pigs made a run for it and managed to get under a fence they then were seen swimming a large icy river and fleeing in the distance. The animal-loving English Public dubbed them "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Pig" the one was captured after 6 days and the other a day and a half later as people had been feeding them and had refused to turn them in. The freedom and lifeloving pigs were bought by a newspaper and sent to a sanctuary to live out their natural lives in comfort. The Clark County Library District has discontinued their Sunday subscription to the "Cleveland Plain Dealer" one of the most esteemed newspapers in the country, they did this to save $60 a year but mind you there's plenty of money for salaries and pensions, what Union do the employees belong to, the Teamsters (if it moves unionize it).
