35 STATES SO FAR.....IT'S GROWING

I don't know how timely this is or what the count may be now.

This  is what Mark Levine has been talking about--a constitutional convention by  the states to get back to the laws of the Constitution.
   
This will take less than thirty seconds to  read.  If you  agree, please pass it on.  This is an idea that we should  address.
  
35 STATES SO FAR.....IT'S GROWING  
  
One message to forward!
Governors of 35  states have filed suit against the Federal Government for imposing  unlawful burdens upon them.  It only takes 38 (of the 50) States to  convene a Constitutional Convention.
  
This will  take less than thirty seconds to read.  If you agree, please pass it  on.  This is an idea that we should address.
   
For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of  Congress.  Their latest stunt is to exempt themselves from the   Healthcare Reform that they passed ... in all of its  forms.   Somehow, that doesn't seem logical.  We do not have an elite ruling  class that is above the law.  I truly don't care if they are  Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever.  The self-serving must  stop.
  
If each person that receives this will  forward it on to 15 people, in three days, most people in The United  States of America   will have the message.  This is one  proposal that really should be passed around.
   
Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution:  "Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of  the  United States that does not apply equally to the Senators, Representatives  of Congress;  and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the  Senators and/or  Representatives that does not apply equally to the  citizens of the United States   ..."
You are one  of my 15 (or more).  Please keep this going.

ps:  You can  forward this message, or copy and paste it into a new message.  We  still have that choice!


Canadians Sense of Humor


Canadians have a de-LIGHT-ful sense of humor....as is evidenced in this
selection of Billboard images from across their country. We have taken
the
FUN out of Life in America with our supposed focus on 'rightness'....as
if
you could ever legislate morality. Laugh out loud at these photographs..




SURF'S UP IN ENGLAND



Spring tides and large sea swells combine to make the perfect conditions for river surfing in North Cornwall, England. The sea swells cause a tidal surge up the River Nett that causes waves on the river itself. The phenomenon affords enthusiasts the opportunity to surf up the river. Locals say the phenomenon only occurs occasionally and usually lasts up to 30 minutes. Credit: David Prtichard

Over And Over



For a very brief time in 1964, it seemed that the biggest challenger to the Beatles' phenomenon was the Dave Clark Five. From the Tottenham area of London, the quintet had the fortune to knock "I Want to Hold Your Hand" off the top of the British charts with "Glad All Over," and were championed (for about 15 minutes) by the British press as the Beatles' most serious threat. They were the first British Invasion band to break in a big way in the States after the Beatles, though the Rolling Stones and others quickly supplanted the DC5 as the Fab Four's most serious rivals. The Dave Clark Five reached the Top 40 17 times between 1964 and 1967 with memorable hits like "Glad All Over," "Bits and Pieces," "Because," and a remake of Bobby Day's "Over and Over," as well as making more appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show than any other English act. The DC5 were distinguished from their British contemporaries by their larger-than-life production, Clark's loud stomping drum sound, and Mike Smith's leathery vocals. Though accused by detractors of lacking finesse and hipness, they had a solid ear for melodies and harmonies and wrote much of their early material, the best of which endured quite well. Interestingly, and unusually for that era, bandleader Dave Clark managed and produced the band himself, negotiating a much higher royalty rate than artists of that period usually received. After a couple years of superstardom, the group proved unable to either keep up with the changing times or maintain a high standard of original compositions, and called it quits in 1970. ~ Rick Clark & Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide
