Ways of 'Senior citizens'.


A  little old lady went to the grocery store to buy cat food. She picked up three cans and took them to the checkout counter.

The girl at the cash register said, "I'm sorry, but we cannot sell you cat food without proof that you have a cat.
A lot of old people buy cat food to eat, and the management wants proof that you are buying the cat food for your cat."

The little old lady went home, picked up her cat and brought it back to the store.

They sold her the cat food.

The next day, she tried to buy two cans of dog food.
 Again, the cashier said, "I'm sorry, but we cannot sell you dog food without proof that you have a dog.
A lot of old people buy dog food to eat, but the management wants proof that you are buying the dog food for your dog."

So she went home and brought in her dog. She then was able to buy the dog food.

The next day she brought in a box with a hole in the lid.


The little old lady asked the cashier to stick her finger in the hole. 
The cashier said, "No, you might have a snake in there."

The little old lady assured her that there was nothing in the box that would harm her.

So the cashier put her finger into the box and quickly pulled it out.

She said to the little old lady, "That smells like  shit !

The little old lady said, "It is.


I want to buy three rolls of toilet paper."

Dean Martin - Memories are made of this
***LYRICS***
Sweet, sweet memories you gave-a me
you can't beat the memeories you gave-a me

Take one fresh and tender kiss
Add one stolen night of bliss
One girl, one boy
Some grief, some joy
Memories are made of this

Don't forget a small moonbeam
Fold in lightly with a dream
Your lips and mine
Two sips of wine
Memories are made of this

Then add the wedding bells
One house where lovers dwell
Three little kids for flavour
Stir carefully through the days
See how the flavour stays
These are the dreams you will savour

With His blessings from above
Serve it generously with love
One man, one wife
One love through life
Memories are made of this
Memories are made of this

Sri Lanka the mystic island.


Sit back and Christopher Ondaatje will take you round Sri Lanka, the present
and the past  for 50 minutes with nary  a moment of distraction. You will
wish for more.
It takes the  'back home' Christopher Ondaatje from Canada to capture in 50
minutes, what most of us haven't in a life time.

I do know he has been at it from the 1980s travelling, researching, helping
the Yala sanctuary, writing books more entertainingly than his brother
Michael!
Thank You Chris.

"Sir, Wonderfully done. I sat through the whole 50 min. which I have not
done on any Youtube documentry on Sri Lanka. Hope you visit Sri Lanka again
and make another 2 hr or 3 hr long documentry. Next time visit Uva, North
and East. Respect and Salute from another Torontonian."

MUST WATCH RIGHT TO THE END

Slaughter in Gaza - A Venerable Jewish Voice for Peace.


Email forwarded by Gunsie

“When one thinks that this is what is necessary for Israel to survive, that the Zionist dream is based on the repeated slaughter of innocents on a scale that we’re watching these days on television, that is really a profound crisis”

By Amy Goodman

The Israeli assault on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip has entered its fourth week. This military attack, waged by land, sea and air, has been going on longer than the devastating assault in 2008/2009, which killed more than 1,400 Palestinians. The death toll in this current attack is at least 1,300, overwhelmingly civilians. As this column was being written, the United Nations confirmed that a U.N. school in Gaza, where thousands of civilians were seeking shelter, was bombed by the Israeli Defense Forces, killing at least 20 people. The United Nations said it reported the exact coordinates of the shelter to the Israeli military 17 times.

Henry Siegman, a venerable dean of American Jewish thought and president of the U.S./Middle East Project, sat down for an interview with the “Democracy Now!” news hour. An ordained rabbi, Siegman is the former executive director of the American Jewish Congress and former executive head of the Synagogue Council of America, two of the major, mainstream Jewish organizations in the United States. He says the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories must end.

“There is a Talmudic saying in the ‘Ethics of the Fathers,’” Siegman started, “‘Don’t judge your neighbor until you can imagine yourself in his place.’ So, my first question when I deal with any issue related to the Israeli-Palestinian issue: What if we were in their place?”

He elaborated, “No country and no people would live the way Gazans have been made to live ... our media rarely ever points out that these are people who have a right to live a decent, normal life, too. And they, too, must think, ‘What can we do to put an end to this?’”

Born in Germany in 1930, Siegman and his family were persecuted by the Nazis. “I lived two years under Nazi occupation, most of it running from place to place and in hiding,” he recalled. His father took his mother and their six children to Belgium, to France, to North Africa, then, after two months at sea, dodging German submarines, they arrived at Ellis Island. He told us: “I always thought that the important lesson of the Holocaust is not that there is evil, that there are evil people in this world who could do the most unimaginably cruel things. That was not the great lesson of the Holocaust. The great lesson of the Holocaust is that decent, cultured people, people we would otherwise consider good people, can allow such evil to prevail, that the German public—these were not monsters, but it was OK with them that the Nazi machine did what it did.”

His father was a leader of the European Zionist movement, which sought a national homeland for the Jewish people. Siegman said: “As a kid even, [I was] an ardent Zionist. I recall on the ship coming over, we were coming to America, and I was writing poetry and songs—I was 10 years old, 11 years old—about the blue sky of Palestine. In those days we referred to it as Palestina.”

Henry Siegman became a prominent leader in American Jewish life. When I asked him to reflect on his long history with Zionism and to respond to the current assault on Gaza, he said: “It’s disastrous. ... When one thinks that this is what is necessary for Israel to survive, that the Zionist dream is based on the repeated slaughter of innocents on a scale that we’re watching these days on television, that is really a profound crisis - and should be a profound crisis - in the thinking of all of us who were committed to the establishment of the state and to its success.”

I asked Siegman to watch a clip from CBS’s “Face the Nation.” The show’s host, Bob Schieffer, recently closed the program by saying, “Last week I found a quote of many years ago by Golda Meir, one of Israel’s early leaders, which might have been said yesterday: ‘We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children,’ she said, ‘but we can never forgive them for forcing us to kill their children.’”

Siegman said that he had seen the broadcast. He replied: “If you don’t want to kill Palestinians, if that’s what pains you so much, you don’t have to kill them. You can give them their rights, and you can end the occupation. And to put the blame for the occupation and for the killing of innocents that we are seeing in Gaza now on the Palestinians—why? Because they want a state of their own? They want what Jews wanted and achieved?”

As the United States resupplies Israel with ammunition, more than 250 children in Gaza have been killed. Instead of providing weapons, the U.S. and the rest of the world should pressure Israel to stop the slaughter.

Henry Siegman (born 1930) is a German-born American, president of the "U.S./Middle East Project". He is a non-resident research professor at the Sir Joseph Hotung Middle East Program, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, a former Senior Fellow on the Middle East at the Council on Foreign Relations, and a former National Director of the American Jewish Congress.

Siegman, a Jewish American, was born in 1930 in Frankfurt, Germany. Moving to the United States, Siegman studied and was ordained as an Orthodox Rabbi by Yeshiva Torah Vodaas. He served as a chaplain in the Korean War, where he was awarded the Bronze Star Medal and the Purple Heart.
