The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily so they can meet their quota of getting FREE FOOD
donated every day to abused and neglected animals. It takes less than a minute (about 15 seconds) to go to their site and click on the purple box 'fund food for animals for free'. This doesn't cost you a thing.

Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising.

Here's the web site! Please tell everyone you can think of about it. you know.

Learn The Insider Secrets For Getting Hired in Today's Job Market

Professionals hunting for work invited to attend free career search stimulus workshop

DENVER, CO – Sending out stacks of resumes, flipping through your Rolodex and scouring Internet postings might have been enough to get a job in years past, but increased competition and falling budgets have reinvented the job search landscape. In 2010, job searches will no longer be "one size fits all" and traditional solutions for finding a job like networking and job boards will fail for over 90 percent of the unemployed.

Denver area professionals, however, will have a chance to learn the insider secrets on what will get them hired in today's market at a free career seminar on February 9, 2010. The event kicks off with a networking open-house followed by a one hour seminar covering everything from why you should avoid sending your résumé to Human Resources, to what qualities companies are demanding in applicants today.

Career search makeover expert, Vicki Brackett, the founder of Make It Happen Consulting and Make It Happen For WomenSM, will be the keynote speaker for the event.

WHAT - Free career search seminar on the "Biggest Mistakes People Make in Their Job Search: The New Methodology for 2010"

WHEN -  Tuesday, February 9th

Networking Event from 5:30-6:30pm with seminar to follow

WHERE -  Double Tree Hotel - Denver Tech Center, 7801 East Orchard Road Englewood, CO 80111

WHO -  Denver area professionals who have been laid off or are looking for work and struggling to find a new job and professionals interested in learning more about the latest job search and interview techniques

HOW - RSVP by sending an email to rsvp@MakeItHappenForWomen.com with your name, contact information and any questions you want addressed at the workshop

About Make It Happen For WomenSM

In 2007 Vicki Brackett decided to combine her passion for helping people and building businesses into her own company, Make It Happen Consulting, LLC. Realizing that women and men see their career and job searches differently, Vicki decided to launch a division of the company devoted to helping women take control of their job search, known as Make It Happen For Women SM, in early 2009. This "for women only" division helps women not only emotionally, but both strategically and tactically in their job search to get them on a career path that fulfills their individual wants and needs.


Ray Stevens Obama Care Song Lyrics & Video

At 71, Grammy Awards winner American Singer
Ray Stevens released his new song "We the People" on December 11, 2009.

The song is about "Obama Care" and the health-care reform bills. The song video is becoming a fast anthem of the Tea Party movement.

Steven says about his song that it is a novelty song and expresses his personal beliefs. He added that the "health-care" bill is a misnomer – it is not actually designed to provide health care. The song expresses exactly feeling of the majority of Americans toward "Obama Care". In this song Stevens has shown the front background of the President Obama's first State of the Union, the White House lawn, U.S. Capitol Building with American flag. He also appears as almost every character in the nearly four-minute video, including a plumber, doctor, grandmother, construction worker, farmer and founding father.

You can see the Video of Song and Lyrics which are given below. This video is really good, you can Listen the music from www.raystevens.com -




We the People, written and performed by Ray Stevens

It's gonna be a big heart breaker,
Grandma needs a new pace maker,
And the doctor says, "I realize she's ill,
But there's talk of legislation, on all our medication,
and maybe all we can do is put her on a pain pill."

Whoa, me!

Hey, Congress!

You vote Obamacare,
We're gonna vote you out there!
We the People have awakened to your tricks.
You vote to let this pass,
You Will be out on your (BLEEP!)!

'Cause we the people have awakened ...

And to put it into words you might understand if you had the common sense that God gave a billygoat,

You'd no doubt notice that your constituents ...

That the electorate, (that's us voters), are onto your pork-barrel tax and spend scam

Or, to put it more succinctly, "Heh, heh, heh, Thwwwwwwwwp!"

We've heard from Hannity, Beck, and Limbaugh,
What you've got in mind for Grandma,
And we found this O'Reilly fella on Fox.

We're kind of like Joe the Plumber,
And when WE crunch the numbers,
It all adds up to voting you out at the ballot box!

He he he he he  . . .

You vote Obamacare,
We're gonna vote you outta there!
We the People have awakened to your tricks.

You vote to let this pass,
You're gonna be out on your (BLEEP!)!
'Cause we the people have awakened . . .

And to put it mildly, we're harboring feelings of extreme alienation

Due to copious amounts of horse manure that have been shoveled out of the White House and the Capitol Building

And we sense that we are being royally defecated upon

Ha ha

Yeah we're getting the impression that you think we are not relevant to these proceedings

And are dismissing our input into the situation.

Please tell Nancy Pelosi,
We're gonna do the Hokey Pokey,
Put the "right" ones in,
Pull the "left" ones out.

You vote Obamacare,
We're gonna vote you outta there!'
We the People have awakened to your tricks.
You vote to let this pass,
You're gonna be out on your (BLEEP!)!
Yeah, we the people have awakened ...

'Cause let me tell you, ain't NOBODY happy with you!

And you might want to start looking for another line of work.
How about the medical profession?
Yeah, they're gonna need everybody they can get that'll put up with the red tape and the pay cut.

Hey, why don't you kill every last job, tax every penny and infringe on every last God-given right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
'Cause let me tell you ain't NOBODY happy with you.
'Cause We the People have awakened!

And it occurs to me that you might really like it down in Venezuela....

Duck and Cover ...

A blast from the past (pun intended). I came across this on youtube and it really brought back some memories - not all of them bad, but certainly it reminded me of how naive we were
