THE other day i was at Wal Mart and a little lady was sending money to the Virgin Islands. I stuck my nose in her business and said you know its a scam and she said i send money all the time, this fella needs it for his family.

I said ma am, give to the Salvation Army here or some Church it will help more people than youll know. She said oh i cant do that, this fella always writes me and thanks me.

It was like talking to the wall and the girl there said she
sends it all the time as a bunch of others do too.

I tried. I really did. Lamarguy

No matter how much to talk to people, they will still do the same mistakes! I bet the guy on the other end is thinking, "Boy this is like shooting Fish in a barrel!"
The Salvation Army is the only one I donate to.
They done a real good job after the Tornado in Holly!

Daily Horoscope for December 8

Leo

If you're worried about running up big debts in what is usually one of the most expensive months of the year, start keeping a running total of how much money you've spent so far. You might have to restrict the amount you spend on Christmas presents, or make other savings in order to stay within your budget, but you realize the folly of ending up severely out of pocket.
