Revelation 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny…
Now the above scripture means this. A penny when this was written was the average daily pay for unskilled workers, so what it say’s is this, workers in the last day’s, as this is an end times prophecy will work all day and receive as their pay, only enough money to buy a couple of loaves of bread. This can play out two or three different ways, one hyperinflation as we seen in the 1970’s under the Jimmy Carter administration. Two or extremely low wages to workers we see today with all the cheap labor being imported into the United States, by your congress and outsourcing American jobs to third world countries. Three or more likely, a combination of the two. So you had better learn how to live on the cheap now.

18 Get a smaller car if you have a V8 car get a V6, if you have a V6 get a 4 cylinder car.
19 Use only regular gasoline 98% of all cars get by acceptably on regular, for the other 2% use plus. No automobile made needs premium/supreme.
20 If your going to get evicted, offer the owner to move out immediately, if he pays you $250.00, this is negotiable, however most land lords will go for it, if they don't you can string out the eviction proceedings for about three months, depending on the state you live in. I told this tip to friend of mine, and he used it successfully two times.
21 If you have a bank account (savings) only use it as collateral for a loan or a collateralized credit card, creditors can not attach it, even the IRS can't put a levy on an account that is collateral for a loan. The IRS does not want you to know this, but it is absolutely legal.
22 Close your checking account, the fees the Big International Bankers charge for that is way too exorbitant. A .50 cent overdraft could cost you up to fifty dollars.
23 Pay off your mortgage early. the amount of usury you pay could be typically 3-5 times what you paid for the house.
03/10/07 How credit card companies pack in extra profits.
24 I once new a man who made his own sandals out of old tires and twine.
25 Use the library to get your daily newspapers and books the typical book even at a discount bookstore is $29.95 today.
26 Make your own things, I can put together a work bench with plywood and 2x4's in less than two hours for around $20.00. A work bench at sears $199.95. I know of no reason that that other things could not be made similarly such as a dinning table and chairs, lawn furniture, etc. There are books that give you the plans to build such things.
27 I also have two nightstands purchased at a store but, I had to assemble them myself, and put the stain on them myself, I also added some fancy border that did not come with the kit. They have served me faithfully since 1976, I still have them.
28 If you cant make it buy it, at a yard sale. typically you can buy things at yard sales at 10 cent or less on the dollar, that is 90% savings, you cant get that kind of deal even at the local Super Center. Lets say you spend $20.00 at a yard sale at 10 cent on the dollar that's $200.00 at a retail store so is your total savings $180.00? No it is not, the total savings is actually $194.00, how do you figure that? you ask, Well I am so glad you asked, if your state charges 7% state sales tax as does Florida, that is an extra $14.00 savings. You just cheated Uncle $ugar daddy out of that extra $14.00
29 Not only that but you can even make money from yard sales I once bought some sterling silver Jewelry at a yard sale and sold it later that day for several thousand percent profit, and I also bought some depression glass for thirteen dollars and later sold one of the pieces for the same amount I paid for all of it, the remaining pieces I still have cost, free. A friend of mine bought a table at yard sale for three dollars and sold it later for twenty.
30 Pay attention, I once was listening to a radio station that had a buy, sell, swap, program a lady said she needed $20.00 to buy her child's Christmas and she had a gold bracelet to sell, so I drove out to the ladies house to check it out, to my surprise it turned out to be a huge gold bangle bracelet with several amethyst stones. I immediately gave the lady the $20.00 she needed, and I sold the bracelet the next day for $125.00
31 Talk to your taxi cab driver, they often have bargains they get from people who can't pay the fare. I once bought a man's wedding ring with three diamonds 14kt. gold for $7.00, he just wanted the cost of the fare back. I also got a nice stereo radio from the same cab driver.
32 Buy the loss leaders. Most grocery stores run weekly specials at super low prices just to get you into their store typically it will be 5 or 6 items but what you will do is you can go to 5 or 6 different stores and buy all their loss leaders. These super low prices are always advertised in the local newspaper.
33 If you must have a credit card, I recommend you do not have one because the interest rate typically runs 18 to 25% but, if you must have one, get it from a bank in Arkansas, Arkansas has usury laws and limit’s their rates to around 9% to 11%,
34 Buying a new car, I used to sell new and used cars, I am going to give some information here that the automobile industry does not want you to have. First of all you must know the value of your trade in, this can be found by buying a copy of the N. A .D. A. buyers guide make sure you get a copy that contains both the retail and wholesale prices. The best way to dispose of your old car is to sell it your self, because a new car dealer is just going to buy it from you at wholesale at best, and more often than not will buy it $300 to $500 below wholesale. So sell your car yourself, it is a bit more trouble I agree, but well worth it in the long run.
35 When selling your used car take advantage of any free advertising you have in your area, here in the St. Petersburg Fl. area we have a publication called the flyer that has free ads. For private sellers.
36 Advertise your car in the local newspaper, the best time to run your ad is to start it on Friday simply because that is when car buyers start to look for cars, and they go out car shopping on Saturday.
37 The dealership I worked for spent three times more as much money if not more than that on newspaper advertising, as they did on than they did on radio and television ads, why because it works.
38 Never, I repeat NEVER let your answering machine answer your phone when you have some thing for sale. Persons that are looking for a car will not talk to an answering machine, they will just go to the next ad in the newspaper. What that means to you is, you have jut lost a sale. Do not let that happen. The competition you have out there to sell your car is extreme at best, and most certainly it is dog eat dog. Remember the longer you keep the car the more money it costs you to keep the license plate and insurance on it
39 Now this is going to be the best tip to selling your car I will give you. So many people think their car is worth thousands more than it really is, simply because it belongs to them. Do not take this attitude, it will certainly cost you money. These people will keep each and every receipt for repairs, oil changes, tires and routine maintenance, dating back to when the car as new. They think this adds value to the car, it does not. Price sells cars, and nothing else. They will tell you that while the car has 190,000 miles, it is highway miles and that is not as hard on a car as city miles, while it sounds good, this is nothing less than nonsense miles are miles, period end of story. The only thing highway miles is really easy on is the brakes and they can be changed easily and cheaply (more on car repairs later). Generally you as a car buyer should keep about 25 miles away from these people, they usually can not be negotiated with. Remember people are buying a car they are not adopting a baby. Always keep in mind you are selling a used car, it is not a previously owned automobile, it is a USED CAR. It may be something special to you, but to the prospective car buyer it is just a car. Do not take the attitude, if they want the car they will pay my price, that is going to cost you money.
40 Now getting down to the nitty gritty, you know the car has a N. A. D. A. wholesale value of let’s say $2,500 retail $3,700 you will price you car at $3,595 then, you should say something like this in your ad “priced to sell quickly”. Buyers will know instantly you mean business about selling your car. They will not bother with an ad that say’s something like this
1995 Ford Taurus creampuff, garage kept, nonsmokers car, 110,000 miles immaculate inside and out $6,000 firm 727-555-5555
However your ad will give you an edge on the competition if it reads something like this
1995 Ford Taurus excellent condition inside and outside 90,000 miles priced to sell quickly at $3,595 727-555-5556
This is a serious seller the one above is not. Price sells cars nothing else. Keeping each and every receipt for repairs, oil changes, tires, and routine maintenance, creampuff, garage kept, nonsmokers car, highway miles, does not . It is all nonsense, and in the case of highway miles is probably a lie anyway. None of this adds any value to a car. The N. A. D. A. book say’s what a car is worth and nothing else. When the N. A. D. A. book say’s add $100 for nonsmokers car, add $150 for having each and every receipt for repairs, oil changes, tires, and routine maintenance, add $250 for highway miles, then I will go along with it until then I will not.
When the N. A. D. A. book say’s add $100 for mag wheels, or When the N. A. D. A. book say’s add $150 for premium stereo system, then that is fine your getting true value for your dollar in that case. In the other instances you are not.

41 Don't throw out your coffee after it sits on the burner for a long time. Instead put it in a thermos bottle as soon as you make it, it will be drinkable even the next day.
42 From time to time you may need to stop at a convenience store for coffee maybe on the way to work or you just ran out of coffee at home, bring your largest coffee mug and just get a refill, around here in the Tampa Bay area a coffee refill costs .96 cent compared to using their 20 oz. cup at $1.79. That is a real good value. I personally use a 40 oz. coffee mug that has had many a gallon of refill coffee go through it.
43 Don't go to your local hollyweird movie theatre. The tickets now cost $10.00, popcorn $7.00 candy bar $5.00 soda $6.00. these prices are outrageous. Not to mention the films hollyweird produces today are not compatible with Christian and family morals and values.
44 Go to your local minor league baseball team games, those tickets are truly Dirt Cheap, you just can not find that much entertainment for what they charge. And be sure to eat a meal just before you leave for the game. And if you need to bring snacks bring your own, and put them in your pockets as many baseball parks do not permit you to bring your own snacks openly. Recommended snacks you can put in your pockets, shelled peanuts (shell them yourself) payday candy bars, put chocolate bars in the wife's purse so the body heat does not melt them. Take along hard candy like Life savers, or certs, certs has a double value it sweetens the breath as well as moistens the mouth this keeps you from getting thirsty, and you will not have pay $6.00 for a soda, if for some reason you must buy a small soda when it is empty keep the cup you can refill it with water at the water fountain.
45 Never buy garbage bags, instead use your plastic grocery bags and Wal-mart bags, I like the Wal-mart bag as they fit perfectly in my garbage can, this will not be feasible for yard work however.
46 If you have a room to rent as stated before, you can make some extra money on the cable, and the utilities etc. let's say the rent you collect is $250 per month the cable bill is $25.00 per month what you will do, will be to combine the rent with the utility bills the rent will now be $280.00, the extra money is hidden in the total rent, that is $5.00 extra per month in your pocket do, the same with the electric bill and throw in $2.00 for the water bill, so you will now be charging $287.00 utilities included. If you provide a telephone you can do it with that service also, but be sure to have a blocking service on toll calls, this will not inconvenience your roomer as he or she can purchase a prepaid calling card. So $5.00 cable $5.00 elec. $2.00 water$2.00 phone amounts $14.00 per month extra in your pocket. that amounts to an extra $168 per year, you pay a stockbroker a commission to buy your mutual funds that make you nothing at the end of the year because of all the fees they charge, this newsletter just made you n extra $168 per year, what is worth more your stock broker or this newsletter. Be sure not to go overboard on this tactic as you don't want to lose renters.
47 Now this next tip will really maximize your return. you will no longer rent by the month but by the week. lets say your rent is $200.00 per month x 12 months = $2400 per year, rent by the week then is $50.00 per week, 200 divided by 4 = 50x52 x weeks = 2600 that is $200 per year more in your pocket, your stockbroker should really be ashamed. Now let's apply it to the numbers above. you used to charge $287 per month rent, we will now convert that price to weekly rent. First round it up to $290.00 divided by four = 72.50 per week x 52 weeks = $3770 per year rent you are now collecting instead of your original $250 per month x 12 months = $3000. This newsletter just made you $770 per year without even raising rent, remember this newsletter is free. If you used these tips to make or save real money and you appreciate it, send me $10.00 I will donate it to the fishing trip for intercity children, or the Police Athletic League P A L, or Christian Foreign Missions your choice, just e-mail me.
48 Grow a garden "Kitchen Garden: A to Z: Growing, Harvesting, Buying, Storing"
Of course you will need an “Old Farmer’s Almanac” to know when to plant.
49 Repair your car yourself with parts purchased at a junk yard, preferable to go into the junk yard and actually remove the parts you need yourself. Here is how a repair shop robs you, first they charge up to $100.00 per hour labor depending where you live then they charge 5 times up to 10 times for the parts, lets say you need brakes the local shop will charge you around $400-$500 for the brake pads alone, they can be had at your local Napa auto parts for a maximum of $50.00 I just bought some so I know what they cost, I got the best pads Napa had, good ones can be bought for $25.00. My cousin had brakes done on a Mercury Grand Marquis cost $1000.00 for all four wheels so I know what a shop charges also. I recently had my brakes done it cost me $190.00 for that is an $810.00 savings, all four wheels. Note rotors usually do not have to be turned unless you hear the brakes grinding, unnecessary work is another way repair shops steal from you you can purchase them at a junk yard if you need them too, by the way I did not install the brakes myself I know a mechanic that gives me a good deal on the labor, I am sure that any one can find a good mechanic to do a little work on the side with a little effort, or you can take a night course to learn some basic mechanic skills at the local high school."Popular Mechanics Complete Car Care Manual"

50 save money shaving, instead of buying shave cream in a can, you can make it yourself get the shave cream in a cake from the drug store, some stores sell it in a kit you get the mug a cake of shave cream and a brush to make it, just add water, it will last 3-5 times as long.
51 Get a carpet sweeper and run it over your carpet before you vacuum this will save wear and tear on your vacuum and also cut down on vacuum bag usage. Also you can run the sweeper between vacuumings, to save on electricity consumption.
52 To get stains out of clothes, first use liquid detergent measure out the proper amount of detergent then pour some of the liquid detergent directly on the stain, this should remove about 40% of all stains. For the rest of stains that will not remove by this method get a bar of Lava soap soak item in cold water, rub generously with the Lava soap.
Wash in regular wash. Repeat if necessary. But do not put item in drier if you need to repeat the procedure. It may be necessary to use a small brush (tooth brush), but be careful not to damage the material. This should make some previously unusable clothes wearable again.

53 The recent news about E-Coli prompts this money saving tip. The government is urging people to throw out your plastic bags of spinach, due to the above mentioned disease, WRONG, what readers of this website will do is to seal up the spinach bag any way you can, with tape or staples, even if it has been partially consumed, and return it with the receipt to the market where it was purchased and get your money back. Why should you take the loss of it, contaminated food is the responsibility of the store not the consumer, make them pay for it. And besides the store will not just throw out the food they will return it to the supplier for credit.
This is just exactly the reason I shop at the local Wally Mart, their drop dead no questions asked return policy on
merchandise even if the purchase was made a long time ago
gets my money back to me, with no hassles. And you don't even need to have to the receipt, without it however you will ge a card in the amount of the purchase to spend, perfectly acceptable to me.
54 Save money by not renting tools. If you need some sort of tool, for maybe a one time job, but do not wish to buy, or can not afford the tool do the job, go to Wal-Mart buy the tool after you are done using it, replace the tool in the
packaging then return it to the store, to get you're money back. When returning items always bring your receipt with you, If you use another store be sure to get their return policy and be in compliance to be sure to get your money back. I have used this little trick myself several times over the years.
55 Don't throw away your small broken chips of soap. First get a bottle of liquid soap when it is empty put your broken soap chips into the bottle add water then wait, the water will melt the soap chips, then you will have liquid soap. It will take some experimentation to get the correct consistency of liquid soap. Also you have recycled the plastic liquid soap bottle, you will be a good environmentalist.

59 This illegal alien thing can be turned around and used against them, (big business) one way to do this, is to go abroad to get your healthcare, more details in the book "Patients Beyond Borders"
60 Another way is to hire contractor's employees to work for you direct, after hours, and on weekends. All of these guys usually like to make extra dollars, and cutting the contractors profits out saves you big time, no matter what you need done, electrical, plumbing, painting, lawn and landscaping, whatever. I once hired a pest control guy to do a job at about 1/3 the cost, to hire the company to do it. If you see somebody doing something in your neighborhood that you need done on your house, just go up
to them and start talking to them, just make sure they are not the owner, or supervisor of the company. Then eventually turn the conversation to your own house, mention that is just a small job, the employee will probably offer to do the job on his own with out you having ask. You can even get mechanics to work on your car this same way, I do this all the time my self. The same can be said of housekeeping and maintenance persons of hotels motels condos
and large office buildings. So get out there and $ave. You might also be able to find the people you need you need that have retired from the business, just ask around, many retirees also could use a few extra dollars.

62 Fifteen tricks stores use to get your money.
http://tinyurl.com/2d9m6o
63 Any merchandise that you must buy new, it would be better to make those purchases by mail order, as this saves the state sales tax, which runs from five to ten per cent depending upon which state you live in (however you must not mail order within your own state.) Any time you can deprive uncle sugar (state gov.) of one nickel it is worth it, legally that is. Now there are a couple of caveats to this procedure, and that is the shipping and handling charges, they can outstrip the savings on sales tax oft-times, so be sure to find out what the shipping charges are before you send that money away. Many mail order companies offer free shipping or coupon discounts on shipping, so it would be useful to utilize these companies.
The other caveat is returning merchandise, if you return, the return shipping can be out of your pocket, again however some companies are now beginning to offer free return shipping, so check to see if your mail order outlet does that. With the current price of gas reaching $3.50 per gal the savings can be greatly enhanced, compared to driving all over town to do your shopping. If you use a credit card some companies can hit your card again next month for that same purchase, I know this because it happened to me once.
64 Increase the fuel economy of your car by increasing the size of the wheels. If you have 13 inch wheels change to 14 inch wheels. If you have 14 inch wheels change to 15 inch wheels, an so on. You will have to adjust the speedometer to compensate, as the speedometer will be inaccurate, but it will be worth it in the long run. Competition exhaust headers will also increase fuel economy.

66 When you leave the house turn a radio on a Christian or talk radio station this will make potential burglars believe that some one is at home, but close the curtains so no one can see in. Also do not say on your answering machine that we are not at home, rather say were not available to answer at this time. Also it is a good idea to get a timer to turn lights on at dark, if you go on vacation, or work at night.
67 Do not use a debit card, also known as gift cards, they have expiration dates, expiration periods, post-sale charges or fees (including but not limited to service charges, dormancy fees, account maintenance fees or cash-out fees.) This fraud became so pervasive here in Florida that the Florida Senate had to pass Senate Bill 1638 to put a stop to it.

In 1976 I was attending Liberty University in Lynchburg Va. this is when the swine flu broke out, I remember it well, I also remember that the only folk to get the flu, were the same ones who took the swine flu vaccinations, for this reason I have never recieved a flu vaccination, nor will ever get one, including this years swine flu
vaccination. At least two of the ingredients are aborted fetal cells and thimerosal, AKA mercury. My opinion. Each person must decide for themselves, but you have been warned.
What would I do for swine flu? First as a preventive I would take coloidial silver, at onset of symptoms I would take Echinacea and or N-Acetyl-Cysteine, or the homeopathic treatment Oscillococinum. Be sure to follow directions on bottle. Lysol disinfectant destroys more than 99% of flu bacteria, so I will use plenty of it.

*Note be sure to eat raw, or lightly steamed vegetables wherever possible. I also recommend your produce to be kosher or organic.
And all meat should be kosher, to be sure to avoid all the
bovine growth hormones (rbgh), and antibiotics, phosphates, and fillers that are used in ordinary meat to put weight on the cattle fast, unfortunately it only puts on fat, but when you eat it, it does the same to you. It is no wonder that 65% of Americans are overweight, source, http://tinyurl.com/nkkjz
You also can avoid the usual phosphates, fillers, and chemical preservatives you get from ordinary meat, when you eat kosher meat, I eat no meat at all, at home that is not kosher.

It is absolute insanity to allow illegals into this country with their various diseases. The health of all Americans is at risk, just so the congress, senate and administration can get votes from the hispanic community, and also get big campaign contributions from big business to allow cheap labor into the country. The president said after the 9/11/01 attacks quote "I will protect America" I find that to ring very hollow.

My Life as a Limousine Driver
It has recently come to my attention that some folk might be interested in reading some of my limousine stories, as I have had some interesting and unusual things occur over the years, so here they are. Keep coming back as there are many, and I will be updating this page over the next several months.
By Al James
03/11/07
It was about 02:00 AM I had a pretty good day starting out with some airport runs from the Vinoy Hotel in downtown
St. Petersburg, the Vinoy was built in the 1920's, but during the depression closed down, it was home to the homeless for many years, it was built as a vacation place for the extremely rich originally, then remodeled and reopened in the late 1980's. A large group had been meeting there for whatever that week, they had given all of us drivers a boxed lunch. Well I was coming in form north county (as I said at 02:00 AM) down US Highway 19 turned off at the 66th st. exit and was sitting at a traffic light when a couple of giggling young girls pulled up next to me at the light the passenger yelled out to me asking if I had any Gray Poupon?, (do you remember the commercial?) the light changed and they laughed as they pulled away from the light, I caught up to them at the next light, and told them that they forgotten their Grey Poupon, I then tossed the two packs leftover from the boxed lunch it landed on the passengers lap the driver said to her companion what is it? what did he give us? the other girl laughing uncontrollably said IT'S GRAY POUPON! they drove away laughing their heads off.
I thought to my self what are the chances of a car pulling up to the limo and asking if I had any Gray Poupon at 02:00 AM, and then my having it due to a run that I had had earlier in the day, must be two hundred bazillion to one at least. The lord must have been trying to put a little humor into my life, I think.

My Fifteen Minutes of Hollywood Fame
04/15/07
This one happened, I think, as best I can remember, in mid 1994, I got the call about 0:800 AM, I was told to go to the port of Tampa, a commercial was being filmed over there. The reason we got the job was because, we were the only limo company in town with a black limousine. They needed one for their background. Well when I got there at about 10:00 AM. I discovered it was in reality a Fox Television series about a spy, unfortunately I do no remember the name of the show, I will try to find out, and post it here, when I do. But it was filmed by a company called B K Productions. We did about three hours of filming, then broke for lunch, then went back and did about two more hours of filming, and that was it, about six hours in total. The only thing I had to do was stand by the limo, just as I always do when I am waiting for a customer, so no biggie. The five hours of filming turned into about forty-five seconds of on screen time, but it was a real thrill seeing myself on television. My part was, however also in the trailers.

The Bachelor Left behind.
04/15/07
I picked up twelve guys on a Saturday night at 8:00 PM east of Tampa. They went to Ybor City, at first but stayed only about forty five minutes, when they got back to the van, they were well blasted, then went to Dale Mabry to the world famous Mons Venus, where they stayed the entire night. But a few of the guys did walk across the street to another club called 2001 Odyssey. They all had a great time and called it a night at about 02:00 AM. Arriving home about an hour later, they all piled out of the van and went into the house. I left, then about two miles down the road, a bottle was rolling around in the back of the van, being a extreme disturbance to me, I stopped to collect the wayward bottle, in order to properly dispose of it, and while doing so to my amazement and utter surprise I found the Bachelor in the back of the van sleeping away. You could have knocked me over with the proverbial feather. Well I drove back to the house and knocked on the door and asked the guy's if they had forgotten anything they all to a man said no, nothing! I told them they had better go out to the van and collect the Bachelor, They said OHHH OK. They then did so. So that is my Left Behind story

Miracle on Park Street
By Al James
04/18/07
I call it Miracle on Park Street because all of the kids involved in this story lived at the time this occurred off of a main street called Park St, and it also happened on Christmas break.
My daughter had recently moved down to Florida, From North Carolina, due to a breakup with her husband, It was November and I wanted to do something for my granddaughters Heather and Ashley, to help them settle in to the community, and find some new friends. My daughter had moved around the country a good bit over the years uprooting the granddaughters a number of times to find work, so they had not known a whole lot of stability.
Usually kids around here liked to be picked up in the limo on the last day of school, but I could not do that due to the fact that I needed to make money on that day myself, I needed an alternative, then I thought of the last day of school at the first half of the year, the Christmas break, perfect I thought. So I told my daughter and granddaughters about it, and told them to make the plans, and invite some friends and prepare for a good time. I had already talked with the owner of the limo and secured permission, she never refused her drivers who wanted to use the limos for such personal time, I had never done so myself before.
About two weeks later, Well as young people usually do, an argument broke between Heather and Ash one said to the other I'm bringing more friends than you! well absolutely not the thing to say in front of the granpa that is going to do the driving and supply the limo. So I told them to cool it or I would cancel the whole thing.
Then I said if you are going to use that as a weapon against your sister both of you will limited to bringing only three friends each.
Then in the interim unbeknownst to me Heather because of this had to uninvite one of her guests.
The Big Day
I had the limo decked out with streamers and loaded with soda and snacks, for the kids, the limo sparkling clean, and sprayed with air freshener all ready.
As I arrived at the first school to pick up Heather and her friends, Heather and a couple of friends, first come to stand at the Limousine, it held ten passengers, and the other children came around to oooh and awww and make statements and make friends with those lucky enough to go out in the luxury automobile, with nobody in chaperone but the limo driver.
Then a young girl came up to me and said to me Mr. Limo driver Heather asked me to come along today but then later told me I could not go after all. But I was wondering Mr. Limo driver if I could go along any way? Well I knew exactly what she was talking about the argument, where I told the granddaughters to bring only three friends each. Well as I looked down at the young girl wishing with all of her young little heart to get to go in that limousine with her friends I saw something very special about her, so I told her to get permission from her mother, and she could go as originally planned. Then I asked her what was her mother's phone number I would call her, she said she does not have a phone in her car and that she was on the way to the school to pick her up. As a matter of fact I thought that I would crawl through Hell itself to get this young lady in this limo on this particular run. Because you see the something special I saw in this girl I mentioned before, was she was missing one of her legs just above the knee.
It took about 45 minutes for mom to get there and give her permission, so Heather, and her friends got to talk for a long time to their school friends in front of the limo, they were about embark on the journey of their lives in.
On our way
We picked up Ashley and went to the mall, the older kids had permission to go off on their own, I was to stay with the young ones and I did I gave them each ten US Dol to spend, we got ice cream, then walked around the mall. One of the young ladies asked me Mr. why are you being so nice to us? I saidare you friends with my granddaughter's Heather and Ashly? She said yes. then I said well any friend of Heather and Ashlt's are also friends of mine, and I take care of my friends. Winding up at the game arcade, the kids had a wonderful time, and as I am sure a wonderful Christmas, as Christmas vacation got started off so perfectly.
The Rest of the Story
Well that is the story, here is the rest of the story. I told all of this to the owner of the limo and his wife, I knew Jack was touched by the story of the little girl with most of her leg missing, he probably shed a tear as did I but he would never show it to anybody, but he was happy to have had a hand in letting this and the other young girls have the limo ride of their lives. This was a good work that Jack has on has on his record, while we know good works do not get one saved, and get one into heaven, but they do get one rewards once you get there. You see Jack, the owner of the limo died that following spring, he had been sick a long time, he had to have dialysis every week all his life. Jack was also a WWII veteran and is buried in Bay Pines cemetery.

My First Limo Trip to Ybor City
04/22/07
I picked up some young ladies about 8:00 PM in North county, for a Bachelorette party, they wanted to go over to Ybor City to a gay club, why a gay club, I have no earthly idea, as they were not gay themselves. They, most of them anyway, were employed at a golf resort hotel. But after a couple of local stops we were on our way to Ybor City, now mind you this was in the very early days of Ybor, it had not yet become the rip roaring Saturday night limousine destination, that it would become in the next few years. I have seen as many as twenty lomos, and four or five party buses driving around overt there in it's hayday. Well any way, we arrived the girls went into the Popular night spot, now defunct, to start their evening. But it was not long before about half of the girls came running out to the limo, they were frightened and offended, because you see, they had been propositioned by hardcore lesbians in the club. I thought to myself, why did you girls come here in the first place? and what were you thinking? They hid out in the limo most of the rest of the night. Well they wound up going to a couple of other places eventually, and had a good time anyway, and will have a funny story to tell their children in the years to come.
By the way the girls taught me an excellent shortcut to get from downtown Tampa to Ybor City, which I had used many times over the following years. That came in very handy.

1 Kings 21:1-16 1 And it came to pass after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, hard by the palace of Ahab king of Samaria. 2 And Ahab spake unto Naboth, saying, give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near unto my house: and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; or, if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money. 3 And Naboth said to Ahab, The Lord forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers unto thee. 4 And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread. 5 But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said unto him, Why is thy spirit so sad, that thou eatest no
bread? 6 And he said unto her, Because I spake unto Naboth the Jezreelite, and said unto him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee another vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard. 7 And Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, and eat bread, and let thine heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite. 8 So she wrote letters in Ahab's name, and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters unto the elders and to the nobles that were in his city, dwelling with Naboth. 9 And she wrote in
the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people: 10 And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die. 11 And the men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Jezebel had sent unto them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent unto them. 12 They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people. 13 And there came in two men, children of Belial, and sat before him and the men of Belial witnessed against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did
blaspheme God and the King. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died. 14 Then they sent unto Jezebel, saying, Naboth is stoned, and is dead. 15 And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give thee for money: for
Naboth is not alive, but dead. 16 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.
Quite frankly I find no difference between the theft of Naboth's vineyard by king Ahab, and the recent
supreme court ruling on eminent domain. Please note that judgment came on Israel not long after this sordid episode in Israel's history. I think judgment can not be far off for America also, when we reach this point. This was a major step forward in America morphing into Police State 'Mystery Babylon'
Rush always says follow the money trail, that trail could not be more obvious on this one. In my opinion
judgment probably will come by the time the current presidential term expires.
At any rate it will most certainly come at some point as Revelation 17:16, Revelation 18:10 and other scriptures
guarantee it. Note that Jezebel was turned to dog poo, and did not even get the decency of a burial. A most disgusting end for this God hater. 2Kings 9:36
Update 08/12/06
Well we have discovered the motive for this theft of hardworking Americans property read this segment from David J. Meyer August online newsletter.
http://www.lasttrumpetministries.org/2006/August2006.html
"Is the United States already bankrupt? According to a recent paper published by a key member of the Federal Reserve Bank of the United States, our country is in deep trouble. Professor Laurence Kotlikoff, researcher for the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis and a professor of economics at the Boston University, had this to say: “A ballooning budget deficit and a pensions and welfare time bomb could send the economic superpower into insolvency. By some measures, the U.S. is already bankrupt. To paraphrase the Oxford English Dictionary, is the United States at the end of its resources, exhausted, stripped bare, destitute, bereft, wanting in property, or wrecked in consequence of failure to pay its creditors? According to the central analysis, the U.S. Government is, indeed, bankrupt….” (29)"
