The final fantasy game franchise is called that as it was the companies last chance as if they flopped with it their company was going under, final project, fantasy setting. Not to mention the games, albeit of the same franchise and same style, are very rarely interrelatedawip2062 wrote:How can there be multiple Final Fantasies?
There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She
hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always
there for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see
the world, I will marry you.'
One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her
boyfriend.
He asked her,'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' The
girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The
sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected
that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life
led her to refuse to marry him.
Her
boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to her
saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before
they were yours, they were mine.'
This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.
Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who
was always by their side in the most painful situations.
Life Is a Gift
Today before you say an unkind word - Think of someone who can't
speak.
Before you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone who has nothing to eat.
Before you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone
who's crying out to GOD for a companion.
Today before you complain about life - Think of someone who went
too early to heaven.
Before whining about the distance you drive Think of someone who
walks the same distance with their feet.
And when you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the
unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your
job.
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on your face and think: you're alive and still around.

Reminds me of a book we used to love to read entitled Cloudy, With a Chance of Meatballs.Big Blue Owl wrote:It's raining Nutty Bars and Cheddar and bacon potato chips! One of the 15 candy/food machines in our break room says "No money required" in the digital read-out. That is truly "Zen."

A New Declaration of Independence?
What would the Founding Fathers do if they came back to see the bloated
abomination into which the government they created has degenerated?
Maybe they would respond to Congress the same way they did to the
British Empire, by presenting a new Declaration of Independence, with a
list of grievances including these:
? Congress has refused to drill for oil, ignoring the
plentiful natural resources that God has bestowed on this Great Nation,
thus imposing a hardship on the American People for the sake of
Environazis.
? Congress has forced the American People to comply
with their tax laws while sheltering their funds in trusts as Ted Kennedy
has done for decades.
? Congress has refused on numerous occasions to build
the fence (Southern Border) that the Will of the People demand.
? Congress has made entire populations of Americans,
mainly inner-city denizens, dependent on their Welfare checks, for the
benefit of the occupants of the Congress, and for sheer vote buying
alone.
? Congress has, under Liberal leadership, through
incrementalism, combined with the United Nations, to subject us to a
jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and has sought and will continue to
seek, the subjugation of American Sovereignty to the UN, the ICC, and
other such denizens of The Hague, Geneva, Paris, Brussels, etc.
? Congress has sought to abolish the Second
Amendment, with such members as Diane Feinstein stating, "Banning
guns addresses a fundamental right of Americans to feel safe," and
Senator Chuck Schumer stating, "We're here to tell the NRA their
nightmare [ban on guns] is true," and thus they fly in the face of the
Constitution.
? Congress has sought to take our Right to freedom of
speech (Fairness Doctrine) and our right to support our choice for
leadership (McCain/Feingold) and thus, alter our form of a normal
lifestyle, free from nanny-staters, communists, socialists, and perverts
such as Barney Frank and NAMBLA.
? Congress has plundered our bank accounts, ravaged
our wallets, and redistributed this largesse to others.
? Congress has excited domestic insurrections amongst
us, by seeking to divide and conquer, to perform class warfare, as
dictated by radicals like Hillary Clinton, Saul Alinsky, and Barack Obama,
and thus seek to keep us divided through merciless partisan politics
destined to destroy America as we know it and love it.
Then they might lead a mob of villagers with torches and pitchforks into
Congress, to tar and feather the whole gang and run it out of town on
the rails.
But alas, the Founding Fathers are long gone, so Pelosi, Reid, et al. will
be returned to power with even larger majorities.

Thought:
Your hands must be getting tired!
Theory:
Ponderable:
It seems that the more the Right slips down in the polls the spikier it gets 'round 'ere.

Theory:
Jet-lag may delay their actions long enough to have a few pints, look around and realize what a wonder their America has evolved into, the good, bad, ugly and awesome, and drink a toast to the song remaining the same, but better.Then they might lead a mob of villagers with torches and pitchforks into Congress, to tar and feather the whole gang and run it out of town on
the rails.
