What I learn today that my good friend who work at our company just got back from Afgans all in one piece. We work very hard to build something to protect all the Arm Forces as much as we can so they can return home safely.

If this happen, throw your phone in bowl full of dry rice and cover it up with saran wrap. Rice love to suck up every single water...for one day then try your phone again.

That really works? I'll have to keep that in mind.

My iPod stopped working once and someone told me to put it in the freezer overnight. That turned out to be an urban legand:roll:
 
I have learned that the last Petit Jean Poultry plant in Arkadelphia will be closing on April 1st. I know why too but I am not allowed to discuss it openly. I'm just saddened for all those who will be without work. I know exactly what they are going through and I wish them all the best in the future.

Just to let you all know, since we had floods in Queensland, Australia
In the upper north area of Queensland, they are currently facing a lethal cyclone similar to katarina the in the U.S, as it has been said to be category 5 - the cyclone will be hitting inland tonight. Note - I am not affected.
 
My Country - by Dorothea MacKellar (A famous Australian poet)

The love of field and coppice,
Of green and shaded lanes.
Of ordered woods and gardens
Is running in your veins,
Strong love of grey-blue distance
Brown streams and soft dim skies
I know but cannot share it,
My love is otherwise.

I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror -
The wide brown land for me!

A stark white ring-barked forest
All tragic to the moon,
The sapphire-misted mountains,
The hot gold hush of noon.
Green tangle of the brushes,
Where lithe lianas coil,
And orchids deck the tree-tops
And ferns the warm dark soil.

Core of my heart, my country!
Her pitiless blue sky,
When sick at heart, around us,
We see the cattle die -
But then the grey clouds gather,
And we can bless again
The drumming of an army,
The steady, soaking rain.

Core of my heart, my country!
Land of the Rainbow Gold,
For flood and fire and famine,
She pays us back threefold -
Over the thirsty paddocks,
Watch, after many days,
The filmy veil of greenness
That thickens as we gaze.

An opal-hearted country,
A wilful, lavish land -
All you who have not loved her,
You will not understand -
Though earth holds many splendours,
Wherever I may die,
I know to what brown country
My homing thoughts will fly.
