I love cake, but I don't want to die from eating it..

Check your mixes for expiration dates!


Cake Mixes & Toxins- **PLEASE READ** Pass this on to ALL in your address book. You never know whose life you may save by doing so. For those of you at work, PLEASE remember to check your cupboards when you get home tonight!!!

This is confirmed on Snopes http://www..snopes.com/medical/toxins/pancake.asp

A student at HBHS (high school) had pancakes this week and it almost became fatal. His Mom (registered nurse) made him pancakes, dropped him off at school and headed to play tennis. She never takes her cell phone on the court but did this time and her son called to say he was having trouble breathing. She told him to go to the nurse immediately and proceeded to call school and alert the nurse. The nurse called the paramedics and they were there in 3 minutes and worked on the boy all the way to the hospital. He came so close to dying. Evidently this is more common then I ever knew. Check the expiration dates on packages like pancakes and cake mixes that have yeast which over time develop spores. Apparently, the mold that forms in old mixes can be toxic! Throw away ALL OUTDATED pancake mix, brownie mixes, Bisquick, cake & cookie mixes, etc., you have in your home.

P.S. Tell this to your children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces and anyone else who keeps these types of mixes in the cupboard.



If you love someone tell them,

Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday

Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday Starts Friday
List of Eligible Items Available to Help with Shopping List

With the first statewide back-to-school sales tax holiday starting his Friday, August 6
and running through Sunday, August 15, the Illinois Department of Revenue is
reminding families to plan on shopping for the new clothes and school supplies
their children need to get a good start at school this year. A list of items qualifying
for the five percent sales tax break is available at www.tax.illinois.gov and can be
downloaded or printed from any computer and used to help plan necessary
back-to-school purchases.

Parents and guardians looking forward to sending their children back to school should
welcome the sales tax holiday. This is the equivalent of a five percent discount on the
must-have items for the first day of school,” said Brian Hamer, Director,
Illinois Department of Revenue.

Retailers across the state have announced plans to open their stores early to kick-off the
sales tax holiday and are offering additional discounts on items required or desired for
back-to-school. In addition to those items needed immediately, families should consider
stocking up on basic supplies that will be necessary for the balance of the school year.

Virtually all items required by classroom teachers, including paper, binders, pens, pencils,
crayons, rulers, erasers, chalk, tape, paste and glue, will be eligible for the reduced sales
tax rate. Other eligible items for reduced taxes include clothing that costs less than $100
per item, including shoes, outerwear, uniforms, gloves, hats and mittens.

During the ten-day sales tax holiday, the 5% portion of sales taxes collected at retail registers
will be waived. Sales taxes collected on behalf of local governments will continue to be collected.
The tax holiday runs about a week longer than those in Iowa and Missouri which traditionally
occur during the first weekend in August. This provides Illinois families more time to select
and purchase the items their children need for back-to-school.

Families in Illinois spend between $800 million and $1.2 billion on back-to-school gear for
their children. The five percent sales tax holiday will save them between $40 and $60 million
in tax payments.

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day!

A store that offers fathers for those who don’t have them has just opened in Chicago,
where anyone of the female species may go to choose a father.

Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:

WELCOME TO THE Father Store!!

You may visit the store ONLY ONCE!
There are six floors and the attributes of the men increase as the shopper ascends the flights.
There is, however, a catch... ! You may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!


Happy Shopping!!!!

A woman goes to the Father Store to find a father
On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1: These fathers have children and take care of them.
If you’re looking for a man who loves children, this is a good choice.

The second floor sign reads:
Floor 2: These fathers have children, but are not with the mother, who has the children,
but he still takes care of them. This is a good choice also.

The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3: These fathers are single parent fathers, and looking for a woman with children to make blended family. Great choice!

"Wow," she says, these are great choices, but I don’t want to stop here, there may be something better! She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads:

Floor 4: These men are fathers with no children and looking for women with no children.
They are very good looking, sensitive and patient.

"Oh, My God!" she says to herself, "I can’t do this alone! I need help!
Too many good choices. Still, she goes to the fifth floor and sign reads:

Floor 5: These fathers look like Denzel, Samuel L. Jackson and
Richard Gere all rolled up into one.
They are simply drop-dead fine, love to help with the housework, homework
and massaging your feet!
Did I mention they are all very romantic?
They love to give flowers, write love letters, work long hard hours just to give
you and the kids everything you need and desire.

A woman never satisfied, she has to try the last floor because if it gets better than this,
she has to know about it.

After she reaches the last floor, the sixth floor, the sign reads:

Floor 6:
You are visitor 20, 130, 214 to this floor.

There are NO fathers on this floor.
They are all on the first five levels.
This floor exists solely as proof that most women think they know what they want,
but maybe not really sure due to what eveyone tells us what we want, desire,
deserve, etc. We really don’t know what we want,
thereby making it hard to please a woman with or without children.

So please be very grateful for the father in your life!
At least he’s there and you don’t have to go looking for him.
And if you do have to go looking for him, you probably know where he is.
If you can’t find him, spend some time with yourself, so when the right man/father/father figure shows up in your life, you can appreciate him on whatever level he’s on.


Thank you for shopping at the Father Store. Watch your step as you exit the building, and have a Faith Filled Fantastic day! Please send this to everyone you know for a good laugh and to all the women who can handle the truth! If you see a community of fathers, give thanks for it! We can’t do it alone, so let’s stop pretending we can. We all need MALE energy to balance out FEMALE energy! He’s the yin, we carry the yang!
Stay on purpose,
stay empowered!
Stay tuned to MEN on Higher Learning, Ch. 19 Chicago. http://MENonHigherLearning.blogspot.com

higher learning on the highway

An N'Spirational Conversations Reader shared this one with me.
Not to make light of others, just awareness.
Higher Learning is not always pleasant.
Food for thought!

What’s wrong with this

Now, which country do we get when
we call with a technical problem with
our computer?

What’s wrong with this
scenario?

Why is there so much disparity in the world?
Why is there such an imbalance/
Why do we place more value on one country than the other?
How do we change/improve it?
