TOUGH QUESTIONS...AND A FEW SURPRISING FACTS
Question 1:
If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?
Read the next question before answering this one.
Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three leading candidates.
Candidate A - Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologists. He's had two Mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day
Candidate B -He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.
Candidate C -He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.
Which of these candidates would be your Choice?
Decide first, no peeking, then scroll down for the answer.
Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.
And, by the way, the answer to the abortion question: If you said yes, you just killed Beethoven.
Pretty interesting isn't it?
Makes a person think before judging someone.
Never be afraid to try something new.

Hello all you rich traders, had a good day?
Foggy all day here so quiet on the airfield. Except for that nasty bloke doing engine runs and disturbing the piece. Tea and toast is in order I think.

Jeff's keeping quiet, probably in bed with a chill. Will take some acclimatising to our weather :-)
Hot soup and a roll will be nice today, simple fare but very effective in producing a nive glow.

I'll join you with the soup, opto
and something hot to drink too, so I
can wrap my hands around the cup.
Jeff's probably trawling the internet for his
next holiday destination :-)
