Here is a video that describes how to put a peekhole in a door. It’s a do-it-yourself video on the Video Jug website.

Red Ribbon Week is a week in Oklahoma where schools stress to students to not do drugs. I was filling in at an alternative school for pregnant and teen moms. In their display there was a poster showing a woman on meth, age 32 to 42 (according to display). Here are two examples my husband found at BoreMe.com.

What do you do with an old toilet, other than toss it. This guy on Craig’s List had a few creative ideas.
Its a toilet, it worked fine when removed, changed bathroom theme and needed a new color toilet. This one is light blue.
If you want it come get it,
Neither I nor the toilet are full of crap.
I thought it would make a funny planter, my wife didnt agree………
I talked about bolting it to the fishing dock at our pond to sit on while fishing, wife didnt agree……
I thought it would be funny to leave on my brothers front porch, my wife didnt agree………….
Giving it away due to living with someone who has no sense of humor.

Here’s an old song from Gerry Rafferty. It has a good message. Can you hear the scratchy sound of the old LP (long play) record? Notice also it’s a bit warped. Back then singers would put out a new record, not a CD.

Author Norman Cousins told of being hospitalized with a rare, crippling disease in his book, The Anatomy of an Illness: As Perceived by the Patient. When Cousins was diagnosed as incurable, he decided to check out of the hospital. He was fully aware of the harmful effects that negative emotions can have on the body, but Cousins reasoned that the reverse was true and decided to do something about it.
Once he was home, he determined to take action against the disease that was spreading through his body. He borrowed a movie projector and prescribed his own treatment.
Each day, he watched Marx Brothers films and old “Candid Camera” reruns. It wasn’t long before Cousins realized that ten minutes of laughter provided two hours of pain-free sleep. Amazingly, his incurable disease was eventually reversed. His victory appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine and afterward, he received more than 3,000 letters from appreciative physicians throughout the world.
Proverbs 17:22
A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.
