HAPPY NEW YEAR..........

Give this heart to everyone you don't want to lose in '09 including me.

'Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.'

A sharp tongue can cut your own throat.

sc

If you want your dreams to come true, you mustn't oversleep.

Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important.

The best vitamin for making friends..... B1.

The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.

The heaviest thing you can carry is a grudge..

One thing you can give and still keep...is your word.

You lie the loudest when you lie to yourself.

If you lack the courage to start, you have already finished.

One thing you can't recycle is wasted time.

Ideas won't work unless 'you' do.

Your mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open.

The 10 commandments are not a multiple choice.

The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a lifetime! It is never too late to become what you might have been.

Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the one's who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

Friends are like balloons; once you let them go, you might not get them back. Sometimes we get so busy with our own lives and problems that we may not even notice that we've let them fly away. Sometimes we are so caught up in who's right and who's wrong that we forget what's right and wrong. Sometimes we just don't realize what real friendship means until it is too late. I don't want to let that happen so I'm gonna tie you to my heart so I never lose you.

Send this to all your friends including me and see how many you get back. Even send it to your balloons that you think have flown away forever. You may be surprised to see it return. Send this heart to everybody you love and like and that have touched your life in a positive way.

Now that they are located in Kandahar , our troops can introduce the coalition to a Double Double.
I would like to be able to BUY a soldier a well deserved Canadian Maple and an Ice Cap.

Let's get it going Timmies, its time to buy a soldier a coffee.

So here it is...my petition for a USA/Canada Wide Buy a Soldier A Coffee Day. Can you imagine how many people would drop the money for a 'Coffee for a Soldier' into a box at all the Horton's outlets? It would probably rival Horton's Summer Camp Fund!

Subject: HISTORY OF MAXINE

----- Interestng Story

I never knew who the creator of Maxine was, After the Maxine jokes there is a summary on how she was created, and a photo of her creator. Interesting.

More from the gal everyone loves and admires

And you finally get to meet her creator at the end!

















                 Creator of Maxine ................



Mother, grandmother inspire Hallmark artist John Wagner to create Maxine.

Whatever pops into her mind, Maxine says. Ordinarily, folks might be offended.

But instead, millions of Americans have identified with the crabby, irreverent Maxine,

The popular Hallmark character that lambastes everything from holidays to aging, and does not hesitate to tell it like it is - or as she sees it.

Maxine keeps up with the times. 'I'd like to try day trading,' she says. 'I'd start by trading Mondays for Saturdays.'

Or she might snap, 'You're a year older?...Want me to moon the birthday fairy for you?'

Nobody and nothing is sacred to Maxine. She's not your typical warm and fuzzy greeting-card character.

The only thing warm and fuzzy about Maxine is her bunny slippers - and her dog Floyd!

She points and shakes her finger at you. She dishes out philosophy to anyone who will listen:

'When life hands you lemons...tuck 'em in your bra. Couldn't hurt, might help.'

John Wagner, Hallmark artist since 1970, says Maxine was inspired by his mother, his maiden aunts and his grandmother, the woman who bought him art lessons when 'fill in the pumpkins' was about the extent of his art classes at St. John's Catholic School he attended in Leonia, N.J.

John remembers doodling as a preschooler, and says both his grandmother and his mother encouraged his artistic interests. He eventually attended the Vesper George School of Art in Boston, and landed at Hallmark as part of a new artists group.

But it was the birth of the humorous Shoebox Greetings (a tiny little division of Hallmark) in 1986 that added a new dimension to John's professional life. The Shoebox way of seeing the world unleashed his talents and he created Maxine.

'Cartoonists are sensitive to the insanities of the world; we just try to humanize them,' John says.

'If Maxine can get a laugh out of someone who feels lonely or someone who is getting older and hates the thought of another birthday, or if she can make someone chuckle about stressful interpersonal relationships, then I'm happy. Putting a smile on someone's face is what it's all about.'

Those smiles have led to Maxine's becoming a bit of a celebrity. She (and John) have been the subject of media stories, including People, USA Today, Good Morning America, The Wall Street Journal, St. Petersburg (FL) Times, and Las Vegas Review-Journal, and they have been included in a major Associated Press story.

Collector and trade publications have reported that fans nationwide are collecting Maxine items. Letters from consumers and fans to John and Maxine reveal a very personal connection to Maxine. Many people say they are just like Maxine.

Why the name 'Maxine'? 'People at Shoebox started referring to the character as 'John Wagner's old lady,'

And I knew that would get me into trouble with my wife,' John says. The Shoebox team had a contest among themselves to name the character, and three of the approximately 30 entries suggested 'Maxine.

' John says the name is perfect.

John, who says he's humbled by such acceptance of Maxine, admits he's proud of her.

Subject: HISTORY OF MAXINE

----- Interestng Story

I never knew who the creator of Maxine was, After the Maxine jokes there is a summary on how she was created, and a photo of her creator. Interesting.

More from the gal everyone loves and admires

And you finally get to meet her creator at the end!


















                 Creator of Maxine ................



Mother, grandmother inspire Hallmark artist John Wagner to create Maxine.

Whatever pops into her mind, Maxine says. Ordinarily, folks might be offended.

But instead, millions of Americans have identified with the crabby, irreverent Maxine,

The popular Hallmark character that lambastes everything from holidays to aging, and does not hesitate to tell it like it is - or as she sees it.

Maxine keeps up with the times. 'I'd like to try day trading,' she says. 'I'd start by trading Mondays for Saturdays.'

Or she might snap, 'You're a year older?...Want me to moon the birthday fairy for you?'

Nobody and nothing is sacred to Maxine. She's not your typical warm and fuzzy greeting-card character.

The only thing warm and fuzzy about Maxine is her bunny slippers - and her dog Floyd!

She points and shakes her finger at you. She dishes out philosophy to anyone who will listen:

'When life hands you lemons...tuck 'em in your bra. Couldn't hurt, might help.'

John Wagner, Hallmark artist since 1970, says Maxine was inspired by his mother, his maiden aunts and his grandmother, the woman who bought him art lessons when 'fill in the pumpkins' was about the extent of his art classes at St. John's Catholic School he attended in Leonia, N.J.

John remembers doodling as a preschooler, and says both his grandmother and his mother encouraged his artistic interests. He eventually attended the Vesper George School of Art in Boston, and landed at Hallmark as part of a new artists group.

But it was the birth of the humorous Shoebox Greetings (a tiny little division of Hallmark) in 1986 that added a new dimension to John's professional life. The Shoebox way of seeing the world unleashed his talents and he created Maxine.

'Cartoonists are sensitive to the insanities of the world; we just try to humanize them,' John says.

'If Maxine can get a laugh out of someone who feels lonely or someone who is getting older and hates the thought of another birthday, or if she can make someone chuckle about stressful interpersonal relationships, then I'm happy. Putting a smile on someone's face is what it's all about.'

Those smiles have led to Maxine's becoming a bit of a celebrity.

Well I am back to the land of the living feeling well. I got out of University hospital yesterday after a small heart procedure. I had been feeling progressively lousier over the past 4-5 months and went through all the testing and on Tuesday morning they found that one of the three by pass grafts that I had done 15 years ago had collapsed at the aorta so they installed a new type of expanded metal medication coated stent to open it up. The pain is gone!!!!!!!!!

My diabetes is out of whack because I had to stop that medication while the procedure and recovery takes place but I have to see the family doctor to morrow to get the final bloodwork done and get the medication straightened out but all in all I feel great.

I HAVE A favour to ask, it only takes a minute....
* I * 6 * Y
Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle).

This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

Just checking to see whether this group is still alive or if I should
perhaps delete it since no one has posted anything since Nov 07 and
with my new job I haven't had too much time to poke around on the
internet.

Take care all,

LOL !!! the last time i changed jobs was in Feb 2007 and I have been wayyyyy too busy ever since. My previous job at least allowed me some time to spend on my university education but this one has been so damn hectic that its been a struggle to keep up my grades while keeping up with my work.

Time is the one precious commodity that I wish I had more of........

How r you? I used to really enjoy the funnies that you would send out

Take care,

Arman.
