Little girl

I really don't want to jinx myself BUT this last week has been the best week in the last 2 years.  Both physically and emotionally ! ! ! !   Weight has been at or above 140 lbs for a week straight, I have had energy and not so tired, and I believe it all stems from getting the B-12 shot.  "Things" were starting to get better but the B-12 shot just put me over the top - so to speak.

Father's day was nice.  Potted around the house not really doing much.  Had a steak and cheese bread for dinner and received a call from my daughter wishing me Happy Father's day.  Neat.  Also discussed what we can do while the grand kids are here over the 4th of July.  Maybe pick up a few outside games like corn hole, washers, and ladder to play.

Looking forward to the visit.

Don't quite know why I giggled when I read this:


Bill Maher was seated next
to a little girl on an airplane, turned to her and said, "Do you want to
talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow
passenger."
The little girl, who had just started to read her book,replied "What would
you want to talk about?"
" Oh, I don't know," said Maher "How about why there is no GOD,
or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death?" as he smiled smugly.

"OK," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me
ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff -
grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns
out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that
is?"

Maher, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence,thinks about it and
says, "Hmmm, I have no idea.."

To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss
why there is no GOD, or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death, when you
don't know crap?"

And then she went back to reading...

For me this is very disturbing and this puke is just plain disgusting ! ! !

U.S. deserter in Sweden steps forward after 28 years

(Reuters) - A U.S. Air Force deserter who has lived secretly in Sweden since 1984 has revealed his identity and contacted his family in the United States who were overwhelmed to hear he was still alive, a Swedish newspaper reported at the weekend.
Dagens Nyheter said David Hemler had deserted aged 21 while serving at a U.S. Air Force base in Germany, after getting involved with a pacifist church and becoming disillusioned with the policies of former President Ronald Reagan.
He hitchhiked via Denmark to Sweden where he settled down, living under an assumed name for the last 28 years and not revealing his true identity to anyone.
"I never planned on not telling the truth in the beginning. I intended to come to Sweden until I felt better (after his experience in the airforce), I expected a week or so," Hemler told the newspaper in a video on its website.
Now aged 49, he is married to a woman from Thailand, has three children and works for a Swedish government agency, but would not let the newspaper print his assumed name.
After his desertion, he became one of the U.S. Air Force's eight most wanted fugitives, according to the newspaper, and had expected at any time to be arrested by military police with both Interpol and Europol looking for him.
Hemler told the newspaper he had missed his parents after he deserted but went on to have a child and had not wanted to be separated from her.
He had decided to come forward after his third daughter turned two and could go to day care, so his wife would be better able to cope if he was arrested.
He first contacted his U.S. family four weeks ago, speaking to his brother Thomas who was in Massachusetts at the time on a business trip.
"DREAM SCENARIO"
"I heard immediately it was David, even if he had a strange European accent after all these years," Thomas Hemler, who lives in New Jersey, was quoted on Sunday as saying.
He said he had asked questions to confirm the man was indeed his brother David. Members of his family in the United States are now planning to visit him in Sweden.
The website of the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations lists Hemler, who was born in Pennsylvania, as having deserted on February 10, 1984 from the 6913th Electronic Security Squadron in Augsburg, Germany.
Its Air Force Fugitives page shows a photo of Hemler as a young man, and a photo digitally enhanced to show how he might look aged 47.
The newspaper said Hemler was registered in Sweden as a citizen of an unknown country who was born in Zurich.
His lawyer, Emma Persson, told Reuters he had approached her firm for legal advice about a month ago.
"My opinion is that he will not lose his permanent residence permit in Sweden, it is very unlikely," she said. She also thought it unlikely he would be extradited to the United States.
A U.S. embassy spokesman declined to comment on the case.
"My dream scenario is that the responsible authorities realize I have already been punished quite severely for my actions ... I have been living 28 years in lies," Hemler said.
