'Auld Lang Syne'

"Auld Lang Syne" (Scots pronunciation: [ˈɔːl(d) lɑŋˈsəin]: note "s" rather than "z")[1] is a Scots poem written by Robert Burns in 1788[2][3] and set to the tune of a traditional folk song (Roud # 6294). It is well known in many countries, especially in the English-speaking world, its traditional use being to celebrate the start of the New Year at the stroke of midnight. By extension, it is also sung at funerals, graduations and as a farewell or ending to other occasions. The international Boy Scout youth movement, in many countries, uses it as a close to jamborees and other functions. The song has been translated into more than 40 languages.[4]

'May you walk with sunlight shining, The blue-bird in every tree,
May there be a silver lining, back of every cloud you see,

May the Good Lord Bless and keep you,
Till we meet again'.

An Incredible 360 view of the Smithsonian Museum



Here is something special, a virtual tour of the Smithsonian Museum room by room. it's really something with a 360 degree viewing by using your cursor. You easily spend days/weeks looking at everything. Just marvelous for kids and adults. Follow the blue arrows on the floor to move into new rooms.

Shows inside and outside of the museum and there little cameras here and there which show detailed info on certain things. If you click on the floors (upper right corner) you get a floor plan of that floor and you can click on a blue circle and go directly to that room.

Truly incredible web site.

Watch it in full screen when you open this up.  Use the roller on your mouse to move in and out. Look for the "arrows" on the floor and click on them. They take you to other places.

Hope you enjoy,
Here's the link,

After a meeting as I was coming out of a hotel I was looking for my car
keys. They were not in my pockets. A quick search in the meeting room it
wasn't there,
Suddenly I realized I must have left them in the car. My husband has shouted
many times for leaving the keys in the ignition.
My theory is the ignition is the best place not to lose them.
His theory is that the car will be stolen.

Immediately I rushed to the
parking lot , I came to a terrifying conclusion.
His theory was right. The parking lot was empty.

I immediately called the police. I gave them my location, car no,
description of car, placed I parked etc. I equally confessed that I had left
my keys in the car and that it had been stolen.

Then I made the most difficult call of all to my husband,

"Honey," I stammered; I always call him "honey" in times like these.
"I left my keys in the car, and it has been stolen."

There was a period of silence.
then I heard his voice.
He said, "But it was I who dropped you at the hotel !"

Now it was my time to be silent.
Embarrassed, I said, "Please, come and get me."

He shouted, "I will, as soon as I convince this policeman I have not
stolen your  car."
