Its been quiet a while since out last post but we hope to find more time in the future.
With the warm weather we have been spending less time in front of the computer and more working on other things. We have spent more time in the doctors office. Guess this just comes with age.
We have done some additional writing for our main website and have been able to add a great deal of related content.
We added a new page of mostly IM Resources. All are great resources and some of them are free. Check them out: IM Resources

"Big Willie" - Priceless
I left the house this morning alone and headed for Best Buy to purchase the camcorder and camera. Enough said about that.
My mind wandered to grits and eggs so I headed to "Old Mill Grill" to get some breakfast.
While enjoying my breakfast, this tall thin black gentleman (?) and attractive, neat black female got up to leave the restaurant.
As he walked past the female with his newspaper under his arm and went out the door, I noted the back of his tee shirt which read "BIG WILLIE"
As the female stopped at the register and paid I, thought to myself.
Whatever free!!!
Breakfast free!!!
Being able to wear a BIG WILLIE t-shirt PRICELESS !!!!!
Camcorder free???

Autism Awareness
Everyone please remember the Autism Awareness race in NASCAR and the importance of being aware of the increase in the presence of autism in our society.
It is growing at an alarming rate. Ten years ago, I didn't know what the word autism meant. I remarried and came to the realism quickly. My stepdaughter is autistic.
My wife will sponsor the 21st Annual Cookout for The Autistic of Gaston County, NC Wednesday, June the 6th. She has sponsored this every year in the name of her daughter Christy.
She has been blessed with help from many people and organizations this year. Please pray that everything goes well and all are blessed for attending.
Sincerely and God Bless!

Gary Halbert
I was going through some of Gary Halbert's Newsletter archives and came across this excerpt from "A Return to Love" by Marrianne Williamson. I like it and thought that I would pass it along for your enjoyment.
"Gary was one of the most brilliant copywriters ever. He passed away not long ago".
Most liked and respected him but some others didn't agree with his presentation and style.
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
from "A Return to Love", by Marianne Williamson.
