Thanks Fran. I have checked all the lists I am involved with and he is not subscribed.

Oh, sweet innocence.................. One thing the general public need to realise is that most cons are subnormal. Their brains are warped and they spend 90% of their "lock-up" devising schemes for REVENGE against the society who have treated them so badly. It is not yet a year since I receives a barrage of hate mail with the usual "we're going to get you" trash because I told that whining woman from Wyoming to stop going on about her illnesses and concentrate on the positive side of life. And when I finally unsubscribed her all hell broke loose. How e-mails are allowed out of prisons I will never know because mail always used to be censored very strictly but I suppose nowadays that would be considered an invasion of privacy. Incidentally that load of cr** came from Preston nick from someone who claimed to know me. Remember, all our comments are available in the Archives. Our "gibberish" is certainly of interest to the old slags.

A woman was very distraught at the fact that she had not had a date in quite sometime. She was afraid she might have something wrong with her, so she decided to employ the medical expertise of a therapist. Her doctor recommended that she go see Dr. Chang, the well known Chinese specialist. So she went to see him. Upon entering the examination room, Dr. Chang said, "OK, take off all your crose." The woman did as she was told. "Now, get down and craw reery reery fass to odder side of room." Again, the woman did as she was instructed. Dr. Chang then said, "OK, now craw reery reery fass back to me." So she did. Dr. Chang slowly shook his head and said, "Your probrem vewy bad, you haf Ed Zachary Disease, worse case I ever see, dat why you not haf dates." Confused, the woman asked, "Oh my God, Dr. Chang, what is Ed Zachary Disease?" Dr. Chang looked the woman in the eyes and replied, "Ed Zachary disease is when your face rook Ed Zachary rike your butt." --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

So right, and I also have experience of this. I have asked my mum to say when she is alive what she wants to happen. I know it's a subject I don't like to think about, but it will be far worse if we all fall out over something like a piece of furniture. angela ----- Original Message ----- From: Marged <[email protected]> To: Angela & Kostas Nicolaou <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 8:46 PM Subject: Re: [GEN-FRIENDS] Premium Bonds [changed subject]. > You can cause a lot of ill feeling between your children after your death. > I know this from my own experience.

Sue I applaud you. You must be a rare breed of social worker to agree there is a need to tighten the screw on prison conditions. Do you also agree that competition in schools is essential and children will not be disillusioned by not being the absolute best in the class.

Thought Brian might be interested in this story We all know the story about the xmas day football match in WW1. Less well known is a Capt Neville of the East Surrey Regt who on leave bought 4 footballs one for each of his Platoon Commanders. On the morning of July 1st 1916 his men were about to enter the battle for Montauban. Believing it in good spirits for his men the Platoon commanders were ordered to "Kick Off" as they went over the top with a prize on offer for the first man to score a "Goal " in the German trenches. sadly that day and in a matter of minutes 60,000 British casualties were sustained including the said Captain.

You can cause a lot of ill feeling between your children after your death. I know this from my own experience. I don't think parents would do it if they knew the anguish it causes.
