"Hi, I'm a homeless guys freind that you put out of work.Work that he had been paid to do for years .Untill this year that is.Because of your so called "great" help, this guy and many just like him weren't able to make enough money to pay there rent. And now the mayor has taken all their belongings. The bell ringing job is all many of them had . It was their only sense of truely feeling productive.And yes many of them are mentally challenged . Ringing that stupid bell was their only income. Thanks Joe, thanks alot. Oooo look at me ! I rang a bell for the salvation army. I think it may have not been as "great " as you think it was. Did you ever stop to think whos' job you were stealing? I bet not , and I'll tell you why. Cause egotistical people like you and the mayor rarely do, let alone think, of anything but your self.
Now , you realize you owe alot of homeless people a apollogy. The very least you should do is pay rent on a nice warm house for them untill it gets warmer outside. After all you did see to it ,rather dilligently might I add, that their only income was taken from them. Now who better watch out for karma! And yes he is big and knows mixed martial arts. Then after you put them out of work , you publicize the fact that all their stuff got taken. all because they could not pay rent on a place to keep it.And blame the mayor and cheif for only trying to make you happy. What is going on in that big head of yours? What were you thinking? I know, you weren't . This is exactly why the mayor is gonna fry that baby azz of yours. Karma baby, karma, its a bitch. And its karmin your way."

A Christmas Story
Yes, story, but it is very touching and if you have ever had bad times - this will help you remember them so you can really appreciate the good times.
The old man sat in his gas station on a cold Christmas Eve. He hadn't been anywhere in years since his wife had passed away. It was just another day to him. He didn't hate Christmas, just couldn't find a reason to celebrate.
He was sitting there looking at the snow that had been falling for the last hour and wondering what it was all about when the door opened and a homeless man stepped through.
Instead of throwing the man out, Old George, as he was known by his customers, told the man to come and sit by the heater and warm up. "Thank you, but I don't mean to intrude," said the stranger. "I see you're busy, I'll just go." "Not without something hot in your belly," George said.
He turned and opened a wide mouth thermos and handed it to the stranger. "It ain't much, but it's hot and tasty, "Stew... made itmyself. When you're done, there's coffee and it's fresh."
Just at that moment he heard the "ding" of the driveway bell. "Excuse me, be right back," George said. There in the driveway was an old '53 Chevy. Steam was rolling out of the front. The driver was panicked. "Mister can you help me!" said the driver, with a deep Spanish accent. "My wife is with child and my car is broken." George opened the hood. It was bad. The block looked cracked from the cold, the car was dead. "You ain't going in this thing," George said as he turned away.
"But Mister, please help..." The door of the office closed behind George as he went inside. He went to the office wall and got the keys to his old truck, and went back outside. He walked around the building, opened the garage, started the truck and drove it around to where the couple was waiting. "Here, take my truck," he said. "She ain't the best thing you ever looked at, but she runs real good."
George helped put the woman in the truck and watched as it sped off into the night. He turned and walked back inside the office. "Glad I gave'em the truck, their tires were shot too. That 'ol truck has brand new." George thought he was talking to the stranger, but the man had gone. The thermos was on the desk, empty, with a used coffee cup beside it. "Well, at least he got something in his belly," George thought.
George went back outside to see if the old Chevy would start. It cranked slowly, but it started. He pulled it into the garage where the truck had been. He thought he would tinker with it for something to do. Christmas Eve meant no customers.
He discovered the block hadn't cracked, it was just the bottom hose on the radiator. "Well, shoot, I can fix this," he said to himself. So he put a new one on.
"Those tires ain't gonna get 'em through the winter either." He took the snow treads off of his wife's old Lincoln. They were like new and he wasn't going to drive the car anyway.
As he was working, he heard shots being fired. He ran outside and beside a police car an officer lay on the cold ground. Bleeding from the left shoulder, the officer moaned, "Please help me."
George helped the officer inside as he remembered the training he had received in the Army as a medic. He knew the wound needed attention. "Pressure to stop the bleeding," he thought. The uniform company had been there that morning and had left clean shop towels. He used those and duct tape to bind the wound. "Hey, they say duct tape can fix anythin'," he said, trying to make the policeman feel at ease.
"Something for pain," George thought. All he had was the pills he used for his back. "These ought to work." He put some water in a cup and gave the policeman the pills. "You hang in there, I'm going to get you an ambulance."
The phone was dead. "Maybe I can get one of your buddies on that there talk box out in your car." He went out only to find that a bullet had gone into the dashboard destroying the two way radio.
He went back in to find the policeman sitting up. "Thanks," said the officer. "You could have left me there. The guy that shot me is still in the area."
George sat down beside him, "I would never leave an injured man in the Army and I ain't gonna leave you." George pulled back the bandage to check for bleeding. "Looks worse than what it is. Bullet passed right through 'ya. Good thing it missed the important stuff though. I think with time your gonna be right as rain."
George got up and poured a cup of coffee. "How do you take it?" he asked. "None for me," said the officer. "Oh, yer gonna drink this. Best in the City. Too bad I ain't got no donuts." The officer laughed and winced at the same time.
The front door of the office flew open. In burst a young man with a gun. "Give me all your cash! Do it now!" the young man yelled. His hand was shaking and George could tell that he had never done anything like this before.
"That's the guy that shot me!" exclaimed the officer.
"Son, why are you doing this?" asked George, "You need to put the cannon away. Somebody else might get hurt."
The young man was confused. "Shut up old man, or I'll shoot you, too. Now give me the cash!"
The cop was reaching for his gun. "Put that thing away," George said to the cop, "we got one too many in here now."
He turned his attention to the young man. "Son, it's Christmas Eve. If you need money, well then, here. It ain't much but it's all I got. Now put that pea shooter away."
George pulled $150 out of his pocket and handed it to the young man, reaching for the barrel of the gun at the same time. The young man released his grip on the gun, fell to his knees and began to cry. "I'm not very good at this, am I? All I wanted was to buy something for my wife and son," he went on. "I've lost my job, my rent is due, my car got repossessedlast week."
George handed the gun to the cop. Son, we all get in a bit of squeeze now and then. The road gets hard sometimes, but we make it through the best we can."
He got the young man to his feet, and sat him down on a chair across from the cop. "Sometimes we do stupid things." George handed the young man a cup of coffee. "Bein' stupid is one of the things that makes us human. Comin' in here with a gun ain't the answer. Now sit there and get warm and we'll sort this thing out."
The young man had stopped crying. He looked over to the cop. "Sorry I shot you. It just went off. I'm sorry officer."
"Shut up and drink your coffee," the cop said.
George could hear the sounds of sirens outside. A police car and an ambulance skidded to a halt. Two cops came through the door, guns drawn. "Chuck! You OK?" one of the cops asked the wounded officer.
"Not bad for a guy who took a bullet. How did you find me?"
"GPS locator in the car. Best thing since sliced bread. Who did this?" the other cop asked as he approached the young man.
Chuck answered him, "I don't know. The guy ran off into the dark. Just dropped his gun and ran."
George and the young man both looked puzzled at each other.
"That guy work here?," the wounded cop continued. "Yep," George said, "just hired him this morning. Boy lost his job."
The paramedics came in and loaded Chuck onto the stretcher. The young man leaned over the wounded cop and whispered, "Why?"
Chuck just said, "Merry Christmas boy... and you too, George, and thanks for everything."
"Well, looks like you got one doozy of a break there. That ought to solve some of your problems."
George went into the back room and came out with a box. He pulled out a ring box. "Here you go, something for the little woman. I don't think Martha would mind. She said it would come in handy some day."
The young man looked inside to see the biggest diamond ring he ever saw.
"I can't take this," said the young man. "It means something to you."
"And now it means something to you," replied George. "I got my memories. That's all I need."
George reached into the box again. An airplane, a car and a truck appeared next. They were toys that the oil company had left for him to sell. "Here's something for that little man of yours."
The young man began to cry again as he handed back the $150 that the old man had handed him earlier.
"And what are you supposed to buy Christmas dinner with? You keep that too," George said, "now git home to your family."
The young man turned with tears streaming down his face. "I'll be here in the morning for work, if that job offer is still good."
"Nope. I'm closed Christmas day," George said. "See ya the day after."
George turned around to find that the stranger had returned. "Where'd you come from? I thought you left?"
"I have been here. I have always been here," said the stranger. "You say you don't celebrate Christmas. Why?"
"Well, after my wife passed away, I just couldn't see what all the bother was. Puttin' up a tree and all seemed a waste of a good pine tree. Bakin' cookies like I used to with Martha just wasn't the same by myself, and besides I was gettin' a little chubby."
The stranger put his hand on George's shoulder. "But you do celebrate the holiday, George. You gave me food and drink and warmed me when I was cold and hungry. The woman with child will bear a son and he will become a great doctor.
The policeman you helped will go on to save 19 people from being killed by terrorists. The young man who tried to rob you will make you a rich man and not take any for himself. "That is the spirit of the season and you keep it as good as any man."
George was taken aback by all this stranger had said. "And how do you know all this?" asked the old man.
"Trust me, George. I have the inside track on this sort of thing. And when your days are done you will be with Martha again."
The stranger moved toward the door. "If you will excuse me, George, I have to go now. I have to go home where there is a big celebration planned."
George watched as the old leather jacket and the torn pants that the stranger was wearing turned into a white robe. A golden light began to fill the room.
"You see, George.... it's My birthday. Merry Christmas."
George fell to his knees and replied, "Happy Birthday, Lord".
Merry Christmas!!
This story is better than any greeting card.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE
Santa came a bit early to some homes this Christmas, exciting some and even scaring others. What I thought was so cool about this Santa visit was, when he asked each and every child what they wanted for Christmas, most said they wanted this or that for their brother or sister and one even asked for a gift for her dog. One wanted a Dump Truck with a bow on it. Nevertheless, each shot taken was a Kodak Moment and if your kids want to see that Santa IS REAL, have them come take a look this morning at the shots we captured just for them. Merry Christmas Everyone!
A Christmas Story
A farmer had some fine hunting puppies he needed to sell. He painted a sign advertising the pups at $300 and set about nailing it to a post on the edge of his yard. As he was driving the last nail into the post he felt a tug on his overalls and looked down into the eyes of a little boy. "Mister," he said, "I want to buy one of your puppies." "Well, these are some fine hunting pups and come from good parents and are expensive." The boy dropped his head for a moment. Then he reached into his pocket, he had a handful of change and held it up to the farmer. I’ve got thirty-nine cents. Is that enough to take a look? "Sure," said the farmer.
With that he let out a whistle. "Here Dolly!" he called. Out from the doghouse and down the ramp ran Dolly followed by four little balls of fur. The little boy pressed his face against the chain link fence. His eyes danced with delight. As the dogs made their way to the fence, the little boy noticed something stirring inside the doghouse. Slowly another ball of fur appeared, this one was small and wobbled and fell down as it slide down the ramp. Then in an awkward manner the little pup began hobbling towards the others, doing it’s best to catch up.
"I want that one," the little boy said, pointing at the crippled runt. The farmer knelt down at the boy’s side and said, "Son, you don’t want that puppy, he will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would."
With that the little boy stepped back from the fence, reached down and began rolling up a pant leg to expose a steel brace running down both sides of his leg, attaching itself to a specially made shoe. Looking back up at the farmer, he said, "You see sir, I don’t run so fast myself and the puppy will need someone who understands." Two friends for thirty-nine cents is quite a deal. Now that is a Christmas gift.

USA Defense Resources Diverted to Track Santa Claus
Tonight the Air Defenses of the USA are being used to track Santa Claus on his way to make special deliveries.
Click here for his latest progress
Merry Christmas !
Click here for his latest progress
Merry Christmas !
Twas the Night Before Christmas
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap.When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tinny reindeer.
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!
"Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! On, Cupid! on, on Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of Toys, and St Nicholas too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of Toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.
His eyes-how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly!
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself!
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.

Mikulski Against Offshore Drilling and Anwar Drilling
I just received this email acknowledgement regarding our elected representative's position on offshore domestic drilling.
Would someone please step-up to the plate and unseat our other Congressional Representative. We've gotton rid of one bad apple, now the other needs to go.
I've got news for Barbara, we need it all, -(Domestic Offshore Drilling and Renewables) - and the sooner the better. AGAIN . . .WE NEED IT ALL!
She needs to get up off her high horse and take a reality pill.
She has a plan alright, just watch her try and stick-it-to us taxpayers by raising the Federal Gas Tax. The Federal Gas Tax increase is already being proposed by the liberals.
READ ON :
FROM SENATOR MIKULSKI:
Thanks for contacting me about drilling for oil and gas in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) and on the Outer Continental Shelf. It's nice to hear from you.
Gas prices are putting a tremendous burden on family budgets at a time when they are already stretched and I agree that we must do much more to become energy independent. But I believe there are many other ways to lower energy costs and lessen dependence on foreign oil.
Drilling off our coasts threatens coastal communities that rely heavily on tourism, while drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge would devastate one of our nation's last pure wilderness areas while not adding significantly to our domestic supply. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates that it will require 8 to 10 years after opening ANWR before oil is produced from any new leases and it would be 20 years after opening ANWR before oil production reached its peak of only 780,000 barrels per day, an amount that would quickly begin to decline. Drilling in ANWR would not significantly increase total world oil production, impact world oil prices, or bring us anywhere close to producing what we use. The United States consumes a quarter of the world's fossil fuels, but only possesses 3 percent of its reserves.
The United States needs a long-term energy plan that balances traditional sources of energy with alternative energy sources and conservation. That's why I voted to increase the efficiency of cars and trucks (P.L. 110-140) and to suspend the filling of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (S.Amdt.4737) through December 2008.
I am also a cosponsor of the Consumer First Energy Act (S. 3440). This bill would create tough new federal protections to guard against profiteering and market manipulation by oil and gas companies, create a temporary windfall profits tax on oil companies reaping record profits, and prevent commodity traders of U.S. crude oil from routing transactions through off-shore markets to evade speculative limits.
While we disagree on this particular issue, I know we share the same goals - lower energy costs and less dependence on foreign oil.
Thanks again for getting in touch with me. If there's anything I can do for you in the future, please do not hesitate to contact me again. Sincerely, Barbara A. MikulskiUnited States Senator P.S. If I can be of further assistance in the future,please visit my website at http://mikulski.senate.govor call my Washington D.C. office at 202-224-4654

Breaking News: Salvation Army Raises 50% More Money This Year Part I
I can't believe it was almost a month ago, (11-28-08) I was asked to volunteer and ring the bell for the Salvation Army. This has to be the quickest month I can ever remember passing by. Today is the final day the Salvation Army will be ringing the bell for the season. That being said, during the past month I took a series of photos of the many people at WalMart, Sam's Club and even the Mall.
OK, here's the BIG NEWS that no one has heard as of yet. I kind of alluded to it yesterday but I wanted to make sure I had the go ahead from the Salvation Army before doing so. So here it goes.
As of last Tuesday, the Salvation Army had already surpassed last years donations! It's now 8 days later and the expectation today is that the Salvation Army will have brought in 50% more in donations this year than last year!!!!!
Here's what makes these numbers so special. First of all, we're in a recession, times are very tough for everyone, yet everyone dug deep and gave because they understand what the Salvation Army is all about. All too often I'd hear people say, (while making their donation) I'm blessed to have what I have and we need to give when we can.
Another major factor is the fact that for the past 10 years the Salvation Army has had to pay bell ringers to cover the locations. This year they have not had to pay out a single dime for bell ringers, making their net take that much greater! That's why I can't thank ALL of those people enough who took the time to volunteer this year and make this fundraising drive that much more successful. It has been cold, bitter cold at times and yet people still came out and fulfilled their commitments at each location and that's just unbelievable. Firefighters, Police Officers, the States Attorneys Office, The County Executive, the Mayor, many local businesses, individuals, man, the list just goes on and on.
While the photos above show just a few of those wonderful people who came to the rescue, there were hundreds more I regret not having. Perhaps the Salvation Army can provide us with a complete list of all of these special people, we'll see what they have to say in time.
All I can say is THANK YOU! The people of the Eastern Shore have come together and delivered in a very big way. It's going to be a very special year for quite a lot of people in desperate need of help.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you ALL.

Daily Times Should Stop Denigrating Chief Dykes
"I read the article in The Daily Times reporting the announcement by Salisbury Mayor Barrie Parsons Tilghman that she will not run for re-election. In that article, she was quoted about what she considers her accomplishments, one of which was ridding the city of the then-chief of police because of corruption.
To my knowledge, that police chief was never investigated, never indicted nor was he convicted of any wrongdoing. That police chief genuinely searched out the criminal element in our community to protect all of us. Prior to becoming a city police officer, he served his country in Vietnam and was awarded the Silver Star, together with other awards, for bravery.
It disturbs me immensely that an exiting mayor would continue to cast a shadow over the life of a deceased, dedicated public servant and highly decorated soldier. I would think the mayor would end her political career listing the positive things she accomplished rather than leaving with such negative comments and with little civility.
The Editorial Board continues -- I assume with the approval of Executive Editor Greg Bassett -- to parrot the mayor's listing of her accomplishments. The editorial of Monday, Dec. 15, further denigrated the reputation and life of Chief Coulbourn Dykes and I find this to be a low ebb for The Daily Times. I don't understand why the newspaper continues to print articles to the detriment of this man's life and continues to hurt his family and friends. I suggest to the Editorial Board that it ascend to a higher plane in its efforts to inform the public.

Barack Obama to be sworn in using Lincoln Inaugural Bible
Here's one for all those who thought Obama would be using the Koran:Barack Obama will take the oath of office using the same Bible that Abraham Lincoln was sworn in on at his first inauguration, marking the President-elect's latest symbolic gesture to follow in the foot steps of the nation's 16th president.
Obama, who will become the first African-American president when he is sworn in Jan. 20, will be the first president to use the Lincoln Bible since its initial use in 1861.
"President-elect Obama is deeply honored that the Library of Congress has made the Lincoln Bible available for use during his swearing-in," Emmett Beliveau, executive director of the presidential inaugural committee, said in a statement.
Obama launched his presidential campaign in February 2007 at the Historic Old State Capitol building in Springfield Ill., where Lincoln gave a famous speech condemning slavery.
During the speech, Obama said that "divided we are bound to fail. But the life of a tall, gangly, self-made Springfield lawyer tells us that a different future is possible.
"He tells us that there is power in words. He tells us that there is power in conviction, that beneath all the differences of race and religion, faith and station, we are one people."
The theme for Obama's inaugural ceremony - "A New Birth of Freedom” is taken from Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.
Earlier this year, when asked which book, aside from the Bible, he would find essential in the Oval Office, Obama said, "Team of Rivals,” Doris Kearns Goodwin's 2005 bestseller about how Lincoln surrounded himself with advisers who coveted the president's job.
For the inauguration, Obama plans to take a train trip from Philadelphia to Washington, evoking Lincoln's inaugural trek.
The Bible, bound in burgundy velvet with a gold-washed white metal rim around the three outside edges of both covers, was originally purchased by William Thomas Carroll, clerk of the Supreme Court, for Lincoln's swearing-in ceremony on March 4, 1861.
Lincoln could not use his family bible for his inaugural ceremony because it was packed away with the First Family's belongings and still en route to the White House at the time of the ceremony.
All the edges of the 1,280-page bible are heavily gilded. In the center of the top cover is a shield of gold wash over white metal with the words "Holy Bible" chased into it.
The Bible will be on display at the Library of Congress Feb. 12th to May 9th, 2009, as part of an exhibition titled "With Malice Toward None: The Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Exhibition." The exhibit will then travel to five other American cities.
Another Puppy Mill Located In Delmar
"Hi Joe,
I know this has nothing to do with this post, however, this needs to be posted asap. The DFD was dispatched to 8775 Bi-state Blvd today for a odor investigation. I was told while at the residence, they discovered a puppy mill behind the home including over 25+ dogs, 1 goat, and several cats. I am not much into telling on others or trying to be a problem causer. However, all these animals were mostly small dogs and were located outside in the cold and also let it be known there kennels were located in mudd. They were all extremely dirty and in non-livable conditions. I don't want to cause a lot of problems for anyone. But these animals cannot speak for themselves and I was outraged when I heard this story. We all need to pull together and fight against this cause. Please I'm asking you to post a topic on this situation and please attach the closest number of people we can contact in order to report this kind of behavior. Word has it, DFD already took care of that for this specific case. But, please do your own investigation and see for yourself. It will be located behind the residence from what I was told. Thank you so kindly and I hope everyone a Merry and Safe Christmas season."
You may call me 24/7 at 410-430-5349. If anyone knows of anything like this you are welcome to contact me and I will handle it from there. Now, if you'd prefer to contact the Humane Society you can contact Linda Lugo at 410-749-7603. If you can't reach them, again, you're welcome to contact me as I have cell phones in which I can call to take care of it. Let's clean up all these bad situations for these animals.
