My grandmother died after being bed-ridden for several years. One day she appeared in my mother's dream well dressed in shinny clothes and shouting that she was healed and well jumping around very happy. I can't be sure whether there would be an after life or not but it seems that death doesn't mean the end of everything. Have you guys had a similar experience? http://gma.yahoo.com/blogs/abc-blogs/crystal-mcvea-claims-she-spoke-god-near-death-153940655--abc-news-health.html?vp=1

The NY Post columnist Adrea Peyser has lent what credibility she might have to author Stephen Jiminez. Not sure what credibility he has, but he has written an entire book to advance his theory that Mathew Shepard tried to exchange sex for crystal meth, a choice that led to his death. It's a shame that after 15 years someone is trying too make money off of a tragic death. And more of a shame that Jimenez claims to be gay himself. I hadn't heard of this book until now, but others have, and Jimenez is met with protests at various book signing events he creates. Amazon actually carries the book, and describes it thus: " The Book of Matt is a page-turning cautionary tale tha…

By Michael Beschloss, Published: October 24 Michael Beschloss’s most recent book is “Jacqueline Kennedy: Historic Conversations on Life with John F.

Does anyone regularly buy Medical Insurance when you are traveling to Foreign countries? I have never done it, but after hearing about a couple different people who had serious medical problems while traveling out of the country and their issues with the Hospitals they were admitted to and getting bills paid, makes me think it might be a wise investment.

It's that time of year. I love apple cider allowed to gently harden under refrigeration. Just finishing my first half-gallon of this season picked up from a local orchard. I've deprived myself the past few years for blood sugar considerations. I'm hoping the trade of sugar for alcohol will mitigate the sin. Think I'll have one more half gallon before I crawl back on the wagon.
