ho really invented what?

Although many great inven-

ons were aributed to

their inventors, who could really say, it

was they who thought of it rst? With

poor or non-existent communicaon,

it’s possible someone invented the de-

sign rst, but was beaten down to it, interms of recognion. That it was just a

maer of me - even a few minutes or

seconds. Who could really tell...?

Great minds thinks alike. When Johann Vaaler

patented his paperclip in 1901, there already were

similar designs by William Middlebrook and Cor-

nelius Brosnan. Vaaler is credited with being therst to design a paperclip because of drawings he

made as early as 1899.

In 1669, the principles of dierenal calculus were

determined by Sir Isaac Newton in England and

Goried Wilhelm Leibniz in Germany at about the

same me. (The name is derived from the

Lan word for “pebble,” referring to the

use of pebbles for counng.)

One hour before Alexander Graham Bell

registered his patent for the telephone in

1876, Elisha Gray patented his design. Aer

years of ligaon, the patent went to Bell.

Gray invented the rst electronic musical

instrument. He had accidentally discov-

ered that he could control sound from a

self-vibrang electromagnec circuit and

technology to Gray’s.

At 10h35 on Friday 17 December 1903, Orville

Wright took the Flyer that he and his brother

Wilbur built into the air for what has come to

be known as the rst powered ight. Earlier,

unbeknownst to them, Gustave Whitehead and

Richard Pearse were also experimenng with

ying machines. Who actually took rst to the

sky remains a controversy.In 1926 in Scotland, John Logie Baird dem-

onstrated a machine that transmits movie

pictures using radio technology, calling it a

“televisor.” It was based on a 1884 idea by

German Paul Nipkow. At the same me, Philo

Fansworth was toiling away in San Francisco on

his concept for television. The two men met a

few months later, and Baird had to agree that

Farnsworth’s electronic design was the beer.They weren’t the only ones working on a TV

model, though. Vladmir Zworykin, a Russian

immigrant to New York, was working on ath-

ode-ray tubes, with the backing of David Sar-

no, the tech-savvy marketer who started NBC.

In 1928, Farnsworth’s television sets made it to

the market rst, at $75 apiece.

in doing so invented a basic single

note oscillator. The “Musical Tel-

egraph” used steel reeds whose

oscillaons were created and

transmied over a telephone line

by electromagnets. At the same

me, around 1874, Bell had also

designed an experimental “Elec-

tric Harp” for speech transmission

over a telephone line using similar

With WildlifeNo matter where you live, there are things you can do to keep the wildlife around you safe.All it takes is increased awareness and a few extra moments a day to make a huge differencein the lives of the wonderful animals with whom we share the Earth.

Here are a few quick and easy tips for preventing the suffering of wildlife:

• Cut apart all sections of plastic six-pack rings, including the inner diamonds, before

discarding them. It prevents birds’ beaks from getting caught in the rings.

• Rinse out cans, put the top inside so that it can’t cut an animal’s tongue, and flattenthe open end of the can as much as possible.

• Cut open one side of empty cardboard and plastic containers so that squirrels andother small animals can’t get their faces or heads trapped in them.

A young man, a student in one of our

universies, was one day taking a

walk with a professor, who was com-

monly called the students’ friend,

from his kindness to those who waited on his

instrucons.

As they went along, they saw lying in the path

a pair of old shoes, which they supposed to

belong to a poor man who was employed in a

eld close by, and who had nearly nished his

day’s work.

The student turned to the professor, saying:

“Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his

shoes, and conceal ourselves behind those

bushes, and wait to see his perplexity whenhe cannot nd them.”

“My young friend,” answered the professor,

“we should never amuse ourselves at the

expense of the poor. But you are rich, and

may give yourself a much greater pleasure by

means of the poor man. Put a coin into each

shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and

watch how the discovery aects him.”

The student did so, and they both placed

themselves behind the bushes close by.

The poor man soon nished his work, and

came across the eld to the path where he

had le his coat and shoes. While pung

on his coat he slipped his foot into one of

his shoes; but feeling something hard, he

stooped down to feel what it was, and found

the coin.

Astonishment and wonder were seen upon

his countenance. He gazed upon the coin,

turned it round, and looked at it again and

again. He then looked around him on all sides,

but no person was to be seen. He now put the

money into his pocket, and proceeded to put

on the other shoe; but his surprise was dou-

bled on nding the other coin.

His feelings overcame him; he fell upon his

knees, looked up to heaven and uered aloud

a fervent thanksgiving, in which he spoke ofhis wife, sick and helpless, and his children

without bread, whom the mely bounty, from

some unknown hand, would save from perish-

ing.

The student stood there deeply aected, and

his eyes lled with tears. “Now,” said the pro-

fessor, “are you not much beer pleased than

if you had played your intended trick?”

The youth replied, “You have taught me a les-

son which I will never forget. I feel now the

truth of those words, which I never under-

stood before: ‘It is more blessed to give than

to receive.’”

A TRICKWe should never amuse ourselves

at the expense of the poor.

It was a busy morning, approximately 8:30

am, when an elderly gentleman,in his

80’s, arrived to have stches removed

from his thumb. He stated that he was

in a hurry as he had an appointment at

9:00 am.

I took his vital signs and had himtake a seat, knowing it would

be over an hour before some-

one would to able to see him.

I saw him looking at his watch

and decided, since I was not

busy with another paent, I

would evaluate his wound.

On exam it was well healed,

so I talked to one of the

doctors, got the needed

supplies to remove his

sutures and redress his

wound.

While taking care of his

wound, we began to engage

in conversaon I asked him

if he had a doctor’s ap-pointment this morning,

as he was in such a hurry.

The gentleman told me no,

that he needed to go to the nurs-

ing home to eat breakfast with his

wife.

I then inquired as to her health. He

told me that she had been there

for a while and that she was avicm of Alzheimer Disease. As we

talked, and I nished dressing his

wound, I asked if she would be

worried if he was a bit late. He

replied that she no longer knew

who he was, that she had not

recognized him in ve years

now.

I was surprised,

and asked him.

“And you sll go

every morning,

even though

she doesn’t

know who

you are?”

He smiledas he pat-

ted my

hand and

said. “She

doesn’t

know me,

but I sll

know who

she is.”I had to hold back

tears as he le, I had

goose bumps on my arm,

and thought, “That is the

kind of love I want in my

life.” True love is neither

physical, nor romanc.

True love is an acceptanceof all that is, has been, will

be, and will not be.

WHAT ISLOVE?

“She doesn’t know me, but I stillknow who she is.”

This is a most remarkable puzzle. It was

found by a Mr. Valdez Raburn, in an

airplane seat pocket, while on a ight

from Los Angeles to Honolulu, keeping

him occupied for hours. John Hess, who owns

a beauty salon in N.J., ere… MI? Ah, it was N.Y.!

He found it tucked in one of his beauty maga-

zines. He spent so much me on this puzzlewhile eang at the local Deli, Saia Hess, his ex-

wife, had no choice but to buy out Hess’ salon!

I answered quite a bit of email from people

that have seen this puzzle. A famous comic, a

hilarious musician, sent an email that he stud-

ied the puzzle while playing his banjo. Elaine

Taylor was so mesmerized by this puzzle, she

wrote a poem telling people not to fall vicm;

“O thy hidden books, which fail to be found, Ilook so hard and fule, I cannot put this puzzle

down!” She judges the job of solving this puz-

zle so involving, she brews a cup of tea to help

her nerves. There will be some books that are

really easy to spot, others near impossible! In

fact, some people will soon nd themselves

in a jam, especially since the book names are

not necessarily capitalized. Truthfully, from

answers we get, we are forced to admit it usu-ally takes a minister or a scholar to nd some

of them! At the worst, one should be able to

nd at least half of them. Research has shown

that something in our genes is responsible for

the diculty we have in seeing the books hid-

den in this paragraph. The Chronicle, surveyed

over 200 patrons, including Jude Raj, a local

seminary professor. They agree this puzzle is

one of the most dicult they have ever seen.

Prof. Raj, on a Holy Bible, vowed to nd all the

books; rumor has it he’s sll looking. During a

recent fund raising event, which featured this

puzzle, the Alpha Delta Phi lemonade boothset a new record in sales. At an auto aucon,

where one HEMI, ahead of all other vehicles

sold, received a record bid due to the buyer

preoccupied with this puzzle while bidding! As

Daniel Sherman, a humble priest at St. Luke’s

medical center puts it, “The books are all right

here in plain view, hidden from sight.” Those

able to nd all of them will hear great lamenta-

ons from those who have to be shown wherethe books are found. One revelaon that may

help is that books like Timothy and Samuel

may occur without their preceding numbers.

Also, keep in mind two things, punctuaon

and spaces… some proclaim these two bad.

I, ahead of the game, knew that spaces and

punctuaon in the middle of a book would be

normal! A chipper atude will help you com-

pete really well against those who claim theycan nd the hidden books faster. Remember,

there is no need for a mad exodus; there really

are 40 books of the Bible lurking somewhere in

this text waing to be found.

FIND 40 BOOKS OF THE BIBLESee if you can nd 40 books of the Bible

hidden in the following paragraph!

God Bless and good luck!

Will Human BeingBecome Immortal?

hp://mashable.com/2012/08/02/the-2045-iniave-immortality/

Immortality is a great for True Blood, but

it’s not something most people take seri-

ously — except for Dmitry Itskov, that is.

The 31-year-old Russian plans on making

immortality a reality by 2045. His plan,

“The 2045 Iniave ,” will sound familiar

if you’ve seen the James Cameron block-

buster Avatar — and he just needs a fewbillion dollars to make it happen.

Itskov’s project has several phases, each

bringing mankind closer to the ulmate

goal living forever. The rst step in the pro-

ject is to create roboc humans that are

controlled remotely. He plans on crossing

this hurdle by 2020, at the latest.

By 2025, a human brain will be transferedinto a roboc skeleton to connue life

aer death. In 2035, the avatar’s brain will

be constructed separately, and your own

personality will simply be “transfered”

into it when you are ready to end your

human existence. And nally, by the year

2045, humans will be able to walk around

in holographic avatars for eternity, never

fearing death.Not surprisingly, the project is extremely

expensive, and Itskov needs some serious

nancial help to pull it o. He’s asking the

world’s richest people to help fund the

movement. In return, He is pledging to

help each donor on his or her own quest

for immortality. You know, because it’s

hard to spend $50 billion in one lifeme.

tarted drowning, but the friend saved him.

Aer he recovered from the near drowning, he

wrote on a stone: “Today my besriend saved my

ife!”

The friend who had slapped and saved his best

friend asked him, “Aer I hurt you, you wrote ithe sand, and now you write on a stone, why?

The friend replied, “When someone hurt us,

we should write it down in sand, where wind o

one does something good for us, we must en-

grave it in stone where no wind can ever erase

it!”

I used to spend at least 8 hours every week-

end making sure things were just perfect -

‘in case someone came over’ Finally I real-ized one day that no-one came over; they

were all out living life and having fun!

NOW, when people visit, I don’t have to ex-

plain the ‘condion’ of my home .

They are more interested in hearing about the

things I’ve been doing while I was away living

life and having fun.

If you haven’t gured this out yet, please

heed this advice.

Life is short. Enjoy it!

Dust if you must .... but wouldn’t it be bet-

ter to paint a picture or write a leer, bake

cookies or a cake and lick the spoon or planta seed, ponder the dierence between want

and need?

Dust if you must, but there’s not much me...

with beer to drink , rivers to swim and moun-

tains to climb, music to hear and books to

read, friends to cherish and life to lead.

Dust if you must, but the world’s out there

with the sun in your eyes, the wind in yourhair, a uer of snow, a shower of rain. This

day will not come around, again.

Dust if you must , but bear in mind, old age

will come and it’s not kind. . ..

And when you go - and go you must - you,

yourself will make more dust!

LADIES!!!Remember...alayer of dust protects the

Wood beneath it.‘A house becomes a home when youcan write ‘I love you’

on the furniture.’

B

ecause I’m a man, when I lock my

keys in the car, I will ddle with a

coat hanger long aer hypothermia

has set in. Calling AAA is not an op-on. I will win.

Because I’m a man , when the car isn’t run-

ning very well, I will pop the hood and stare

at the engine as if I know what I’m looking at.

If another man shows up, one of us will say

to the other, ‘I used to be able to x these

things, but now with all these computers and

everything, I wouldn’t know where to start.’

We will then drink a couple of beers and

break wind, as a form of holy communion.

Because I’m a man, when I catch a cold, I

need someone to bring me soup and take

care of me while I lie in bed and moan. You’re

a woman. You never get as sick as I do, so for

you, this is no problem.

Because I’m a man, I can be relied upon to

purchase basic groceries at the store, like

beer, milk or bread. I annot be expected to

nd exoc items like ‘cumin’ or ‘tofu.’ For all I

know, these are the same thing.

Because I’m a man, when one of our appli-

ances stops working, I will insist on taking it

apart, despite evidence that this will just cost

me twice as much once the repair person gets

here and has to put it back together.

Because I’m a man, I must hold the television

remote control in my hand while I watch TV.

If the thing has been misplaced, I may miss a

whole show looking for it.....though one me

I was able to survive by holding a calculator...(

applies to engineers mainly).

Because I’m a man, there is no need to ask

me what I’m thinking about. The true answer

is always either sex, cars, sex, sports or sex.

I have to make up something else when youask, so don’t ask.

Because I’m a man, I do not want to visit your

mother, or have your mother come visit us, or

talk to her when she calls, or think about her

any more than I have to. Whatever you got

her for Mother’s Day is okay; I don’t need to

see it. And don’t forget to pick up something

for my mother, too.

Because I’m a

MAN

Because I’m a man, you don’t have to ask

me if I liked the movie. Chances are, if you’re

crying at the end of it, I didn’t ...and if you

are feeling amorous aerwards.. ..then I will

certainly at least remember the name and

recommend it to others.

Because I’m a man, I think what you’re wear-

ing is ne. I thought what you were wearing

ve minutes ago was ne, too. Either pair of

shoes is ne. With the belt or without it, looks

ne. Your hair is ne. You look ne. Can we

just go now?

Because I’m a man, and this is, aer all, the

year 2008, I will share equally in the house-work. You just do the laundry, the cooking,

the cleaning, the vacuuming, and the dishes,

and I’ll do the rest...... like wandering around

in the garden with a beer wondering what to

do.

This has been a public service message for

women to beer understand men.

An elderly Chinese woman had two

large pots, each hung on the ends of

a pole which she carried across her

neck.

One of the pots had a crack in it while the

other pot was perfect and always delivered a

full poron of water.

At the end of the long walks from the stream to

the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full.

For a full two years this went on daily, with

the woman bringing home only one and a half

pots of water.

Of course , the perfect pot was proud of its

accomplishments.

But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its

own imperfecon, and miserable that it could

only do half of what it had been made to do.

Aer two years of what it perceived to be bit-

ter failure, it spoke to the woman one day by

the stream

“I am ashamed of myself, because this crack

in my side causes water to leak out all the wayback to your house.”

The old woman smiled, “Did you noce that

there are owers on your side of the path, but

not on the other pot’s side?”

“That’s because I have always known about

your aw, so I planted ower seeds on your

side of the path, and every day while we walk

back, you water them.”

“For two years I have been able to pick these

beauful owers to decorate the table.

Without you being just the way you are, there

would not be this beauty to grace the house.”

Each of us has our own unique aw. But it’s

the cracks and aws we each have that make

our lives together so very interesng and

rewarding.

You’ve just got to take each person for what

they are and look for the good in them.

SO, to all of my crackpot friends, have a great

day and remember to smell the owers on

your side of the path!

It has worked for many. If it works for you

please pass on the good news. Chiu Nan is

not charging for it, so we should make it free

for everyone. Your reward is when someone,

through your word of mouth, benets from

he regime. Gallstones may not be everyone’s

concern. But they should be because we all havehem. Moreover, gallstones may lead to cancer.

“Cancer is never the rst illness,” Chiu Nan points

out. “Usually, there are a lot of other problems

eading to cancer.

n my research in China , I came across some ma-

erials which say that people with cancer usually

have stones. We all have gallstones. It’s a maer

of big or small, many or few.One of the symptoms of gallstones is a feeling of

bloatedness aer a heavy meal. You feel like you

can’t digest the food. If it gets more serious, you

eel pain in the liver area.” So if you think you

have gallstones, Chiu Nan oers the following

method to remove them naturally.

The treatment is also good for those with a weak

iver, because the liver and gallbladder are closelyinked.

Regimen:

1. For the rst ve days, take four glasses of ap-

ple juice every day. Or eat four or ve apples,

whichever you prefer. Apple juice soens the

gallstones. During the ve days, eat normally.

2. On the sixth day, take no dinner.

3. At 6 PM, take a teaspoon of Epsom salt (ma

nesium sulphate) with a glass of warm water.

4. At 8 PM, repeat the same. Magnesium sul-

phate opens the gallbladder ducts.

5. At 10 PM, take half cup olive oil (or sesame

with half cup fresh lemon juice. Mix it well and

drink it. The oil lubricates the stones to ease th

passage.

The next morning, you will nd green stones in

your stools. “Usually they oat,” Chiu Nan note

“You might want to count them. I have had pe

ple who passes 40, 50 or up to 100 stones. Ver

many.”

“Even if you don’t have any symptoms of gall-

stones, you sll might have some. It’s always

good to give your gall bladder a clean-up now

and then.

What Animal are You?


52/64

If you are a Dog : A very loyal and sweet person.

Your loyalty can never be doubted. You are quite

honest and sincere when it comes to your at-

tude towards working. You are a very simple

person, indeed. Absolutely hassle free, humble

and down-to-earth! ! That explains the reason

why your friends cling on to you! You have a good

taste for clothes. If your wardrobe is not updated

with what is trendy, you sure are depressed.

Popular and easy-going. You have a lile group

of dignied friends, all of them being quality-

personied .

If you are a Mouse : Always up to some sort

of a mischief! The mischievous gleam in your

eyes is what makes you so cute and aracve to

everyone. You are an extremely fun-to-be-with

kind of person. No wonder people seek for yourcompany and look forward to include you for all

get-together’ s. However, you are sensive which

is a drawback. People need to select their words

while talking to you. If someone tries to ddle

around and play with words while dealing with

you, it is enough to invite your wrath. God bless

the person then!

If you are a Lion : Quite contradictory to yo

name, you are a peace loving person. You b

try to avoid a situaon wherein you are req

to ght. An outdoor person, you dislike si

at one place for a long duraon. You are a b

leader, and have it in you how to tacully d

work from people. You love being loved, an

when you receive your share of limelight fro

someone, you are all theirs!!!! Well, well...

some people could even take an advantage

ter you to the maximum and get their work

So be careful.....

If you are a Cat : An extremely lovable, ado

person, somemes shy, with a passion for q

wit. At mes, you prefer quietness. You love

exploring various things and going into dep

each thing. Under normal circumstances yocool but when given a reason to, you are lik

volcano waing to erupt. You’re a fashion b

People look forward to you as an icon assoc

with fashion. Basically, you mingle along fre

but don’t like talking much to strangers. Pe

feel very easy in your company. You observe

in choosing your friends.


53/64

If you are a Turtle : You are near to perfect and

nice at heart. The examples of your kindness are

always circulated in groups of people. You, too,

love peace. You wouldn’t like to retaliate even to

a person who is in the wrong. You are loved due

to this. You do not wish to talk behind one’s back.

People love the way you always treat them. You

can give, give and give love, and the best part is

that you do not expect it back in return. You are

generous enough. Seeing things in a praccal

light is what remains the best trait of you guys.

If you are a Dove : You symbolize a very happy-

go-lucky approach in life. Whatever the surround-

ings may be, grim or cheerful, you remain unaf -

fected. In fact, you spread cheer wherever you

go. You are the leader of your group of friends

and good at consoling people in their mes ofneed. You dislike hypocrisy and tend to shirk

away from hypocrites. They can never be in your

good books, no maer what. You are very me-

thodical and organized in your work. No amount

of mess, hence, can ever encompass you. Be-

ware, it is easy for you to fall in love....

If you are a Panther : You are mysterious.

You are someone who can handle pressure

with ease, and can handle any atmosphere

without going berserk. You can be mean at

mes, and love to gossip with your select-

ed group. Very prim and proper. You like all

situaons and things to be in the way you

desire, which, somemes is not possible.

As a result, you may lose out in some rela-

onships. But otherwise, you love to help

people out from dicult and ght spots

when they really need you.

If you are a Monkey : Very impaent and

hyper!!! You want things to be done as

quick as possible. At heart, you are quite

simple and love if you are the center of at-

tracon. That way, you people are unique.

You would like to keep yourself safe from

all the angles. Shall your name be dragged

or featured in any sort of a controversy,

you then go all panicky. Therefore, you

take your precauons from the very begin-

ning. When you foresee anything wrong,

your sixth sense is what saves you from

falling in traps. Quite a money mindedbunch you people are!!


54/64

Challenges AreBlessings In Disguise

God somemes sends us challenges asblessings in disguise,

To make us stop and think along the way...

To make us search our hearts and souls

And take me to discover,

A lile more about ourselves each day...

To lovingly remind us just reach out to

Him in prayer,

For any answers that we long to know....God somemes sends us challenges,

As blessings in disguise

To guide us and inspire us as we grow...

May God who watches over us and blesses us

each day,

Help you nd the strength to meet whatlife may send your way.

May He guide your footsteps and hear

your every prayer,

And in the days to follow keep you always

in His loving care...

Somemes we suer physically, other mes

emoonally. No maer what the cause, pain is pain.

But God’s word promises: “Blessed are

those that mourn, for they shall be

comforted.” Mahew 5:4


55/64

The only survivor of a shipwreck was

washed up on a small, uninhabited

island. He prayed feverishly for God to

rescue him, and every day he scanned

the horizon for help, but none seemed

forthcoming. Exhausted, he eventually managed

to build a lile hut out of driwood to protect

him from the elements, and to store his few pos-

sessions.

But then one day, aer scavenging for food, he

arrived home to nd his lile hut in ames, the

smoke rolling up to the sky. The worst had hap-

pened; everything was lost. He was stunned with

grief and anger. “God, how could you do this to

me!” he cried.

Early the next day, however, he was awak-

ened by the sound of a ship that was ap-

proaching the island. It had come to rescue

him.

“How did you know I was here?” asked the

weary man of his rescuers. “We saw your

smoke signal,” they replied.

It is easy to get discouraged when things

are going bad. But we shouldn’t lose heart,

because God is at work in our lives, even in

the midst of pain and suering. Remember,

next me your lile hut is burning to the

ground——it just may be a smoke signal

that summons grace of God.

Six-year-old Brandon decided one Saturdaymorning to x his parents pancakes. He

found a big bowl and spoon, pulled a chair

to the counter, opened the cupboard and

pulled out the heavy our canister, spilling it on

he oor.

He scooped some of the our into the bowl with

his hands, mixed in most of a cup of milk and

added some sugar, leaving a oury trail on theoor which by now had a few tracks le by his

kien.

Brandon was covered with our and geng frus-

or Mom and Dad, but it was geng very bad.

He didn’t know what to do next, whether to put

t all into the oven or on the stove and he didn’t

know how the stove worked! Suddenly he saw his

kien licking from the bowl of mix and reacheto push her away, knocking the egg carton to t

And just then he saw Dad standing at the door

Big crocodile tears welled up in Brandon ‘s eye

All he’d wanted to do was something good, bu

he’d made a terrible mess. He was sure a scolding was coming, maybe even a spanking. But h

Then, walking through the mess, he picked up

A story is told of a woman who came out

of her house and saw 3 old men with

long white beards sing in her front

yard. She did not recognize them. She

aid, “I don’t think I know you, but you must be

hungry. Please come in and have something to

eat”.

“Is the man of the house home?” they asked.

“No”, she said. “He’s out.”

“Then we cannot come in” they replied.

n the evening when her husband came home,

he told him what had happened.

“Go tell them I am home and invite them in.”

The woman went out and invited the men in.

“We don’t go into a house together,” they re-

plied.

“Why is that?” she wanted to know.

One of the old men explained: “His name is

Wealth...he said poinng to one of his friends...

and said poinng to another one, “He is Success

and I am Love.”“Now go in and discuss with your husband which

one of us you want in your home.” The woman

went in and told her husband what was said. Her

husband was overjoyed, “How nice”, he said.

“Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let

him come and ll our home with wealth.”

His wife disagreed, “My dear, why don’t we invite

Success?”

“Let us heed our daughter-in- law’s advice,” sa

the husband to his wife. “Go out and invite Lov

The woman went out and asked the three old

men, “Which one of you is Love? Please come

and be our guest.”

Love got up and started walking toward the

house. The other two also got up and followed

him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Suc

invited Wealth or Success the other two of us

would’ve stayed out, but since you invited Love

wherever he goes, we go with him.

Wherever there is Love there is also Wealth a
