Pledge to be Veg in 2009
Every year, more than 15 billion animals are slaughtered for food in the U.S. alone. Each of those billions of individual animals is denied everything that is natural and important to them: the space to take a few steps, love, safety from fear and pain, companionship, the joy of being able to nuzzle their young, and often even protection from the cold. That's billions of feeling beings who die frightening, painful, and often violent deaths so that they can be thrown into a bucket or a box or onto a sandwich.
In 2009, will you please consider the suffering of each of the animals killed for food and pledge to try a vegetarian diet for just 30 days?
For every person who signs the Pledge to Be Veg for 30 Days through the end of January 2009, PETA will make a donation to a program to plant fruit trees in an impoverished village where people go hungry every day. These people would benefit from the vitamin C and other natural goodness of the fresh fruit that you would be helping to provide. So not only will you be helping animals, you'll also be helping to nourish a hungry person.
The trees that you will help plant will also provide shade and shelter. They will reduce carbon emissions and allow rainfall to soak into the ground instead of washing away precious top soil. But the connection between your diet and the environment doesn't stop there.
A U.N. report summarized the devastation caused by the meat industry by calling it "one of the top two or three most significant contributors to the most serious environmental problems, at every scale from local to global." By planting these trees, we will work together to mitigate some of the devastation caused by factory farms.
By taking the Pledge to Be Veg for 30 Days, you will be helping animals, the environment, and those who are hungry, and you even get to do something terrific for yourself—get more energy, cleaner arteries, and a chance to live a longer and fitter life! Sign the pledge now, and we'll send you great tips and resources to get you started.
You can join others who have signed the pledge by visiting ExperienceProject.com, the world's largest network of shared experiences! There, you can use the site's free online tools to track your daily progress on eating vegetarian, give and get support from others who took the pledge, and challenge your friends to get involved too!
If you want to sign it with me just follow the link:
http://getactive.peta.org/campaign/30_day_pledge_to_veg_jan_09
It doesn't have to be in the month January, well it can't be in this month because its already gone but you have to sign before january 31st 2009 and then you can do any 30 days of the year before 2009 its gone.
Im gonna start Feb. and hubby Danny said he's gonna do it too as long as a stick to it.

5 yr old dies following attack by chained dogs.
5-Year Old Dies Following Attack by Chained Dogs
A 5-year-old girl in Thomasville, Georgia, has died of her injuries after she was reportedly attacked by her family's pit bulls while she was playing on a trampoline.
Carol Jones, the executive director of the Thomas County Humane Society, missed the point when she responded to this attack by telling people to "be cautious of their family pets. They can turn on you at any time, and it doesn't matter what kind of dog." It's ridiculous to suggest that people be constantly suspicious of Fido when the real reason for this tragedy can be found elsewhere in the article—the part where it says the dogs attacked the child when they "broke free of their chains."
Leaving dogs chained outside creates a risk of injury for children or anyone else who might wander into the yard. Chained dogs kill more children than do fireworks accidents and falls from trees and playground equipment combined, according to a 2002 report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Dogs who spend a lot of time alone or chained are more prone to become aggressive and bite, while dogs who are socialized and enjoy life with their human "pack" are generally protective of their guardians without being a danger to the community.
January is "Unchain a Dog" month. Chained dogs everywhere experience stress and confinement that put them in danger of going mad and attacking someone, and many dogs suffer and die every year during winter's bitter cold and summer's blistering heat. Please make a promise to all dogs who are trapped at the end of a chain in your neighborhood that you will do something—anything—to help them.

I Have a tropical heart,there were some things I never knew I would do.Ice fishing was one of them,I don't even knew this kind of fishing existed. I was on my way to Pennsylvania when I pass through Lake Erie and saw little tents in the frozen lake so I asked my husband to stop. I had my camera with me (like always) and went into my little adventure. Let me not be the one to tell you that it was dangerous and cold,OK then I will, It was dangerous and cold and to top it off I was in the frozen lake with complete strangers that I doubt will risk their lives to help me in case of the lake breaking and me falling into it. Anyways I had the fun of my life and its an experience that I will tell over and over.

we regret to inform you
today was my second day in my new job.
But the funny thing is that the day I went to an interview I got the job Im working now, and today my second day in the job I received an email from the other job saying that they regret to inform me that I was not selected for the job. Let me tell you something employers love to hire mediocre people and then blame the employees.
signals of hiring the wrong person:
- the way they dress to the interview is the most important
- the way the resume is done ( not what it has on it )
the way the person communicates
anyway im saying this because i went well dress and the other 4 people had sweat pants and so.
- anyway at least i got a great job that pays more than the one that didnt want me

Wisdom Rejected
Gueno pues hoy me saque los cordales porque sentia el "creepy feeling" de mis dientes moviendose todo el dia, y me he dado cuenta que mi boca es muy pequena para tantos dientes.
Normalmente la gente se los quita porque le dan problemas; pero la cosa es que a mi me faltan dientes que nunca se dignaron en salir y con to' y eso no caben los que tengo.
Me pusieron 4 anestecias muy buenas en verdad que ese dentista es bien bueno.
Lo mejor fue que me dio unas pastillas para el dolor Vicodin , que se supone que me den sueno y aqui estoy pompiaisima escribiendo y haciendo cosas en internet. Es que cuando el dolor es tan fuerte la medicina se va en calmar el dolor. Asi que cuando te bebes una pastilla y te pone a dormit significa que la enfermedad necesitaba descanso o que te guillaste y en verdad no necesitabas tanto medicamento.
xoxo
