4 Head Presidential bond

We are currently engaged in a serious search for a 4 Head Presidential bond AND a 27500 Black Eagle Mexican bond. The offers are out of this world but a question regarding SOLICITATION by the buyer has arisen. This is a strictly private transaction between private parties. The solicitation issue does not come into play at all. Have a wonderful day. By the way, do let me know if you know anyone who has possession of these bonds. Thank you for your time.

Yes, God Knew

A little girl, 11 years old, recently got run over by a truck. She was crossing the street and did not see the truck coming because the truck was being blocked by another vehicle which was to the left of and alongside the truck but slightly ahead of it. For the same reason, the driver of the truck that struck the girl didn't see her coming and couldn't stop in time. The little girl quickly died from her injuries. If she had been at the curb just thirty seconds before, she would have made it across safely. Five minutes before all of this happened, God knew what was about to happen. The driver was probably listening to the radio or simply thinking what she was going to make for dinner or any of a hundred other things, oblivious to what lay in store for her and the little girl just five minutes hence. The little girl was probably thinking what an eleven-year-old normally thinks about. The last thing on her mind was that she would be dead within the next five minutes. God knew, though He simply did not intervene. Does anyone know why?

Whitney Houston and Stress

Whitney Houston, the singer, is dead. She died at a rather young age - she was only 48. The regular papers all say she abused drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. Perhaps she did. I wasn't there to witness any of it. They are saying her death was related to her deteriorating health. That is, of course, stating the obvious. Houston actually died of stress - stress on her body and mental condition due to pressures from career issues. 99% of people do not realize that artists lead difficult lives in private. The distance between the public and the private person is very great. Bridging that distance is hard. Keeping up appearances is tough. Being creative is demanding. Staying in top form is difficult. Fame and skill do not last forever. Artists are people who need lots and lots of moral support. When it does not come, they turn to whatever means are available to hide the fact that things are not quite what they should be. Unfortunately, money does not solve the problem. Fortunate is the artist who does not pay some heavy personal price for their success. The torture is sometimes unbearable but most times, it is self-inflicted. What Houston needed most was simply to just have a good time - just like she used to.
