OUR FIRST QUARTER!


Ok, so it's "in the mail", but I have good reason to believe that it will be here shortly, so I am going to give this person the fame that is due him.

My friend, and former supervisor, Mr. Patrick Fogarty, has generously offered to send us our very first quarter. Well, actually, I think his words were, "You know me, I have to be first, so don't let anyone else send one. Mine will be in the mail TODAY."

Now, Patrick is not your ordinary man. He is quite extraordinary and does not need my help in getting him his "15 minutes of fame". He can do it all on his own, baby. Patrick is a dreamer and a doer.... a wonderful combination. He walks the earth with charisma, generosity and loads of good Karma. He is well-rewarded by the universe because he believes that all good is possible and that all of us are deserving of it. He shares with the Universe and the Universe returns the favor.

So, with all that said ... the Universe (God, Creator, whichever term you prefer) has recently rewarded him BIG TIME. Now if you met Patrick, you would likely know, within the first hour of conversation, that he is the biggest Madonna fan you have ever known. He can likely tell you what she ate for dinner this past Saturday. And he is not just some lustful fan who gets all giddy at the sight of her cleavage. He really adores and admires her. So... his greatest dream has always been to meet her....

He put it out to the Universe ... and here he is...

More details to follow once I receive his quarter in the mail.

How Many Quarters Does It Take To Buy A Home?


Well, let's see...if I found a home along the Maine coast for about $200,000. , I would need at least 800,000 quarters to purchase it outright! However, if I was only going to put a down payment on the house, then I would only need 160,000 quarters. Hmmm... sounds like a plan! (And an exercise in both mathematics and patience).

Maybe this could work out to be some kind of "movement". Maybe if we all just shared quarters, we could all be homeowners?
