Just a Thought...
By Staff Writer Sharon Barrett

"Proverbs 29:2 " When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan."

Isn't this so true with people. They rejoice when all is going wonderfully, and groan, cry and wail when things are not going there way or right. I was thinking if we rejoice in times that are difficult maybe they would not be so difficult, or at least seem not to be. And if we rejoice when things are bad, the bad gets better. I intend to try it I hope someone else will also..

The Master's Card
Submitted by Sandy Uhler

By now you have probably seen the catchy television commercials for Mastercard. They start by identifying some things that people can buy with their Mastercard, then show a moment that is priceless and end by saying, "There are some things money can't buy, for everything else there's Mastercard."

Friends, I'm not unlike those agencies promoting their favorite credit card. I'm here to advertise. You see, my life is a commercial for others to see. I'm a card carrying representative for the Master's Card. That's right, the MASTER'S CARD.

Let me tell you about it. There are no finance charges, no payments due. My bill has already been covered...it's a prepaid deal. I couldn't afford the price, so Jesus stepped in and paid it for me. My Name is written on the card for all to see. It is accessible twenty-four hours a day from anywhere in the world. The MASTER'S
CARD has so many benefits it's hard to list them all. Let me share some
of them with you...you might want to apply for a personal card yourself.

Just for starters there is UNLIMITED GRACE. That's right, there is no present limit to the amount of grace you receive from the MASTER'S CARD. Have you been looking for love in all the wrong places? Then, look no further than the MASTER'S CARD. It offers the greatest rate on love that has ever been offered.

The MASTER'S CARD gives you access to many "members only" benefits. Want real joy despite the difficulties of life? Apply for the MASTER'S CARD. Want a lasting peace? Apply for the MASTER'S CARD. Want real joy despite the difficulties of life?

Apply for the MASTER'S CARD. Want a lasting peace? Apply for the MASTER'S CARD. Looking for something you can always rely on in a jam? The MASTER'S CARD is perfect for you. Another great thing about the MASTER'S CARD is that it never expires. Once you're a member, you're a member for life...eternal life, that is. Membership has its privileges, you know.

How do you receive the MASTER'S CARD. Dial 1-800-ROMANS10:9 "if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." Jesus is standing by right now to take your call. Don't delay. This great offer won't last forever. Peace, joy and hope: Invaluable. Faith, contentment and assurance: Inestimable. Salvation: Priceless.There are some things money can't buy. For those, there's the Master's Card.

Christians, why not be an advertisement for the MASTER'S CARD. Let your life be a commercial today for Jesus Christ.

Gas Prices... Not So High
Submitted by Scott Tousignaut

Complaining about the price of gasoline?
You think a gallon of gasoline is expensive?

Diet Snapple 16oz for $1.29 equals $10.32 per gallon
Lipton Ice Tea 16oz for $1.19 equals $ 9.52 per gallon
Gatorade 20oz for $1.59 equals $ 10.17 per gallon
Ocean Spray 16oz for $1.25 equals $ 10.00 per gallon
Pint of milk 16oz for $1.59 equals $12.72 per gallon
STP Brake Fluid 12oz for $3.15 equals $ 33.60 per gallon
Vick's Nyquil 6oz for $8.35 equals $178.13 per gallon
Pepto Bismol 4oz for $3.85 equals $123.20 per gallon
Whiteout 7oz for $1.39 equals $25.42 per gallon
Scope 1.5oz for $0.99 equals $ 84.48 per gallon

And this is the REAL KICKER......
Evian water 9oz for $1.49 equals $ 21.19 per gallon
.....$21.19 FOR WATER!!

You get the idea?? So next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on Nyquil, or Scope, or White Out!

Why are U.S. stock prices quoted in eighths?

In the eighteenth century, the U.S. dollar's value was pegged to the value of the Spanish silver dollar, which was divided into eight parts rather than the 100 parts (pennies) into which the dollar was divided.

When the U.S. stock market opened at the end of the century, prices were based on the Spanish dollar, and they were divided into eighths accordingly. The practice has remained until today, but now the U.S. stock market is finally preparing to switch to a decimal system.

Buying and selling stocks is a complex, risky art, and the rules change as the world becomes ever more connected. Here is a resource center with useful information for beginners and experts:
