NUTRITION Regarding
the obvious need to create a new Cabinet Secretary for
Nutrition, as well as a New Mexico Advisory Council for
Nutrition, comprised of physicians and educators, please
write to Lieutenant Governor Dianne Denish, who presides
over the New Mexico Senate. This legislation will result
in some of the strongest consumer protection statutes in
the United States regarding additives, carcinogens, and
neurotoxins. It is a short 30 day session, and the
legislators will have time to implement changes which
will protect the health of New Mexicans. This
legislation is also very much a revenue-generating plan,
which will, through the recommendations of Advisory
Council on Nutrition; result in suits similar to the
tobacco suits of the 1990s whose judgments exceeded
$225 billion. One of the prime considerations in the
legislation is removing proven and incontrovertible brain
toxins, like aspartame, glutamates, and cysteic acid from
foods consumed by New Mexicans, as well as one of the
prime ingredients of soft drinks, phosphoric acid. The
legislation will save Medicaid costs, improve medical
education in New Mexico, and require instruction in
health and nutrition for New Mexico school children. It
will change the course of health in New Mexico by
preventing illnesses in hundreds of thousands of New
Mexicans. The legislation is sponsored in the New Mexico
Senate by five Committee Chairmen and four Vice Committee
Chairmen, and the only physician in the New Mexico
Legislature. Excerpted from Stephen Fox New Millennium Fine Art Santa Fe, New Mexico Darwin Awards: Circular
Reasoning Two
twenty-eight-year-old construction workers, reportedly
experienced in their work, fell one hundred feet after
cutting a hole through thick concrete without realizing
they were standing in the center of the circle. Neither
was wearing a safety harness to arrest his eight-story
plunge. Reference:
The Times of London Millions of Consumers Unite Last
year, while the E.U. tested 10 million cattle for Mad
Cow, the U.S. only tested 20,526 cows out of 35 million
slaughtered. In response to this threat to food safety
and consumer rights, the Organic Consumers Association
(OCA) has launched a massive campaign to pressure the
USDA into creating standards that emulate those of Japan
and the EU. Every day, thousands of citizens are signing
on to this important petition. Help the OCA in achieving
its goal of gathering over a million petition signatures,
demanding that the U.S. Government adopt and enforce:
Mandatory testing for all cattle brought to slaughter,
before they enter the food chain, ban the feeding of
blood, manure, and slaughterhouse waste to animals. Please
forward this to family and friends! Sign the petition

gdudley3@cybermesa.com Italian Man The
elderly Italian man went to his parish priest and asked
if the Priest would hear his confession. Of course,
my son, said the priest. Well, Father, at the
beginning of World War Two, a beautiful woman knocked on
my door and asked me to hide her from the Germans. I hid
her in my attic, and they never found her. Thats
a wonderful thing, my son, and nothing that you
need to confess, said the priest. Its
worse, Father. I was weak, and told her that she had to
pay for rent of the attic by giving me a little nookie
now and then, continued the old man. Well,
it was a very difficult time, and you took a large risk
you would have suffered terribly at their hands if
the Germans had found you hiding her. I know that God, in
his wisdom and mercy, will balance the good and the evil,
and judge you kindly, said the priest. Thanks,
Father, said the old man. Thats a load
off of my mind. Can I ask another question? Of
course, my son, said the priest. The
old man asked, Do I have to tell her that the war
is over? Humor
Break Tribal
Wisdom is not apparent in our federal government! The
tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on from
generation to generation, says, When you discover
that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to
dismount. However,
in the Federal Govern-ment, more advanced strategies are
often employed such as: 1.
Buying a stronger whip. 2.
Changing riders. 3.
Appointing a committee to study the horse. 4.
Arranging to visit other countries to see how other
cultures ride dead horses. 5.
Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be
included. 6.
Reclassifying the dead horse as living
impaired. 7.
Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse. 8.
Harnessing several dead horses together to increase
speed. 9.
Providing additional funding and/or training to increase
the dead horses performance. 10.
Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would
improve the dead horses performance. 11.
Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed,
is less costly, and carries lower overhead, it,
therefore, contributes substantially more to the bottom
line of the economy than do some other horses. 12.
Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all
horses. 13.
Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position.
