Just in case ... thanks John & Yvette M.!



John & Yvette Massey
Just in Case ...

I just HAD to send this to you because either you are a dear and treasured friend, or a beloved family member.
Someday when we have to face the passing of a friend we are struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't "anymore."

No more hugs; no more special moments to celebrate together; no more phone calls just to chat; no more
"just one minute."

Sometimes, who and what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, and say
"I love and care about you."

So while we have it, it's best to love it, care for it, fix it when it's broken and heal it when it's sick.

Suppose one morning you never wake up, will all your friends know how much you care about them?

The important thing is to let everyone know how much happiness you wish for them.

So just in case I'm gone tomorrow........

2010 U.S. Census Map Thanks Ramey H.!


Folks, this is an amazing and very revealing map. You can move it around and enlarge it or make it smaller. Check it out and keep it for reference.

Remember in 2010 you filled out a census form?
Well, here are the results of that process. (You may want to save this in your favorites.) What you will see is a Map of the US - not just the 48 states but all of the 50 states. Territories are not in the census, but they did provide information during this process.
So, let us say you are in Virginia, you can go by county and as you zoom in by city to see the increase or decrease and then you can see the changes of the various races within these cities.
Look at places you know and also look at the map at the darker brown location. You can zoom in and out to get the information on the places you know.
Use your cursor to move the map around and you can zoom in on specific counties to get current stats. It is very interesting.
Fascinating. Just glide your cursor over the map and it displays every county. Can't imagine how long it took to create this map.
