Women that are being harassed and stalked by a rejected lover are turning to private security agencies to have a woman bodyguard protect them. The
female bodyguard will quickly provide a solution. Any guy that is harassing and stalking her client will soon be taught a lesson he will never forget. A swift kick to his balls will teach him to keep his distance from his former girlfriend. He will be too embarrassed to report this painful experience to the proper authorities.

One private security agency employs over fifty females who have earned black belts. Each one of them is capable of battling with as much as three ordinary men and sending them all to the hospital. One of the agencies bodyguards is a sixty year old grandma that has been proven to be the most deadly. She once demolished a street gang single handed. She was hired by a store owner that was being harassed by the gang. Witnesses said the sight of an elderly lady ass wiping ten tough men was a sight that they would never forget.

Hollywood stars who are stalked by admirers are turning to female bodyguards for protection. Male bodyguards are useless against a gang of fans determined to sexually molest a celebrity. That gang has to be kicked and punched to protect their client. It would look awful if one of their male bodyguards would do that. A few female bodyguards with black belt experience could send a pack of stalkers running in the opposite direction. Nobody but the stalkers that were making the life of the celebrity a bad one would complain. Their complaints would fall on deaf ears.

A dictator of an oil rich country keeps one hundred female bodyguards in his compound. They are all lesbians that are extremely loyal to their benefactor. If he dies they will all be homeless. Each one carries a sword and pistol, they will quickly use either one if their master is in danger. A coup by members of the army was quickly defeated by his female bodyguards. The testicles of the disloyal were strewn around the compound grounds. No prisoners were taken. It is sure nobody will ever try to depose that dictator again.

The female bodyguard is quickly replacing male protection because she is more effective. Many single men that are weak and poor as fighters are now marrying women that have earned the degree of a black belt. They have found it to be a great way of protecting themselves. The macho male is slowly losing his power in the face of a female that knows how to battle. This is bad news for bullies and those that victimize the weak. It is good news for people who need a lady that can fight.

Many single men are now searching to find a woman companion that can street fight. This has happened since watching the kick boxing tournaments that were recently held at Las Vegas. There women fighters displayed their talents magnificently. A man that can’t street fight for what ever reason dreams of having one of those ladies for a girlfriend or even a wife. Because the best way a helpless man can protect himself is by having a female street fighter as a girlfriend. She will be on his side if attacked by a crazy man or street bully. Having protection against violence has become even more important to a helpless guy then sexual pleasure. He dreams of the day when he will be physically secure.

If you are a woman that would like to make yourself more valuable to a guy that is a poor street fighter, join a karate training school. But remember that you can never duplicate a man in certain areas of strength. A closed fist blow to a mans chest is useless if used by a woman. There are better ways for a woman to use her power. Learn to escape from the ground when being mounted, pinned down or held down. Discard techniques that require some degree of strength to work. Bolster your skills with pressure point strikes. They will cause the assailant to lose control of his limbs and mobility. Poke the eyes, stomp the feet, and use the old reliable kick in the balls, it is usually a winner.

Once a women is trained as a competent street fighter she will become extremely precious to an elderly or physically weak husband. He will not leave the house without her. If single she will have no problem finding a guy. Most men have no street fighting skills and need a lady to protect them. When dating a guy the women that is an expert at street fighting should make her date aware of it. If his intentions are to assault her he will quickly change his mind. If he lives in fear of being a victim of violence himself she will have found a guy that will always cling to her.

When filling out a profile at a dating service you should put it at the top of the list that you are a competent street fighter. You will be swamped with offers of marriage by men that need protection against violence. If you are a lonely woman that has little to offer most men, this is your chance to get a great guy. Learn how to street fight and tell your dates that you are the best. I am sure you will never be lonely again.

The temptation of employees to give away merchandise or services in exchange for a quickie is too powerful for many of them to resist. Thousands of otherwise honest workers have lost their jobs after discovered having illegal sex with a customer. The sex was paid for by merchandise owned by their boss. It is estimated that the costs to retail stores is over a hundred million dollars annually because of employees giving away merchandise or services in exchange for sex. In order to slow down this practice retail stores have hired security agencies staffed with attractive female private investigators. They test the honesty and sexual restraint of an employee by offering oral sex. Hundreds of horny employees were tricked into giving away the store. The owners of the companies were shocked by so many of their best men being disloyal and dishonest.

The employee that suggests an exchange of merchandise or services that doesn’t belong to him in exchange for sex is clearly guilty. He should be immediately discharged. But the real guilty one is the woman that offers a quickie for something the employee doesn’t own. She is breaking down the will of an otherwise honest worker. In this situation the worker that agrees to that sexual offer should not be fired but offered a sexual rehabilitation program.

In the Garden Of Eden a man and woman were unable to restrain themselves. This flaw in human nature has created a big problem in the retail industry and there is little chance of solving it. Part of the solution has to come from a woman who suggests that a man should compromise his job in exchange for sex. That woman is taking advantage of the flaw in a mans personality. But the gas station attendant that offers a woman driver a full tank of gas in exchange for oral sex is just as guilty. The problem comes from the fact that women were wired to sell sex and men to pay for it. Until it is changed, there is little chance of keeping a man or woman from making a dishonest deal for a quickie.

The universe is always going through changes and that includes relationships. If you look at old photos you will see that your appearance has changed. You are no longer the same person that you once were. Years of happenings have changed you. The people you now socialize with are not young anymore. If you have been married for many years it is most likely that you are living with a person you no longer care for. It is obvious that your spouse is not the same person that you were once in love with. Your partner might be fat, homely or just smell bad. If it was years later, and you met your spouse on a blind date, you would rather be alone, then be with such a disgusting looking person. Many married couples stay together despite their distaste of each other. They have many good reasons to do so. But it is rarely for love.

Couples that have recently met and have become lovers often break up within a few months. The most likely cause of the split is that most guys get tired of the same woman and start to treat her badly. He is no longer bringing her roses or telling her how much he cares. Not too long ago they were making love day and night. Now they have replaced love making with scrabble. The other causes of break ups between couples that have recently met are often reality. Truths that were hidden when they first met are now being discovered. The biggest shock to a woman that has been seeing a guy for a while is finding out that he is almost broke and has no way of earning a living. If he confesses that he flips burgers in a fast food restaurant she might have a stroke. The other reason for a break up would be that he is married and has a few kids to support. A confession of an incurable venereal disease by one of the partners is a sure reason to split. But if both partners confess to having the same terminal venereal disease they might stay together for practical reasons.

Many couples break up in a violent way. The most extreme cases make news headlines.A Man and woman that were once in love brutally kill their once loved partner. If all the murdered spouses were put in a line, that line would encircle the globe many times. This is the worst way of ending a love affair. There are many battered men and women that have suffered severe injury because of a violent mate. The media prefers to report only stories of battered women but just as many men are brutalized by women. Men are ashamed to report an attack by a crazed woman. If they do they are called a wimp. Psychological abuse by a loved one is seldom spoken about but it can also be very painful. There are couples that torture each other with words. They are not considered violent actions, but they can be very damaging to a persons self esteem and personal life. There are countless negative factors that can end a relationship. It is a miracle that any relationships last more than a few months.

Women have wisely become cautious about entering a serious relationship. They have a lot to lose if things go wrong. A woman can lose her reputation if a guy she just met likes to tell stories about their date. Some women would rather be alone then take a chance on a love affair that rarely ever lasts. Men by nature don’t need a serious relationship. Many men are looking for an ego booster thrown in with some good sex. Having as many sexual affairs as possible is their goal.They need little else. But women are basically different they want something more than a few quickies. They are looking for a long lasting relationship. But men seldom want a serious relationship. Guys will promise a woman anything to get what they want. A poor or homely man will easily grant a woman her wishes and enter a serious relationship with her if she will accept him. The dating game has proven to be frustrating to every one except the rich guy that gets exactly what he wants and as often as he wishes.

Many women that have been disappointed by guys have discovered that the sex toy has replaced the sexual need for men. They no longer need a man to please them sexually. But they do need a man for another important reason and that is a financial one. Even if a woman has a good job, a guy with a better one will add to her lifestyle. That is the reason most women won’t quit the dating game. There is always hope of meeting a guy that will buy her expensive gifts or take her on a trip to Europe. Some young and good looking women are successful but the rest fail after years of hunting for that special guy.

The dating game and marriages will continue as long as a man needs sex and an ego booster. And women will always hunt men for an extra buck. That is the nature of the game. The only sure way to beat that game is not to get involved in it, for most that seem impossible to do. But if you do get involved and it doesn’t work out, you can always scream: “You Can Kiss My Backside Goodbye”.

Today’s women have many new and expensive tastes. The lines in the clothing and cosmetic stores are packed with women purchasing designer branded items. They have been exposed to so many goodies that having them has become the most important thing. Poor men have become completely useless. A woman does not need a lover who is broke. The men that can afford to pay her bills are sought after and worshipped. A guy with a few extra bucks has so many women offering him their body that he has to hide from most of them. A lady would rather share a rich man than have a poor man annoying her.

There are many women that are terminally unemployed and have become useless to themselves and others. But there is a way that they can be given useful work. They can make the impossible dream of the three dollar hooker become a reality. A government supervised program can organize and subsidize their pay so they will be making a decent wage. Monthly health checkups will be given so they will not spread any disease. Their price to customers would be three dollars; the government will pay the rest. This will not be a forced labor program; the workers will all be volunteers. Many hypocrites will say that this idea is immoral, but it is also immoral for a woman to be useless to her self and others. The program will relieve the loneliness of over seventy five million men in this country alone. It will be the most humanitarian program ever devised in world history.


A man that is sexually satisfied is a man that is peaceful and content. He sees the world as a beautiful place and has a smile on his face. Trainers of prize fighters recognized this when they would not allow a boxer in training to go near a woman. They felt that having sex would cool his anger and hinder his performance. An army of sex starved men make the best warriors. Wise generals would not let them socialize for weeks before a battle. Afterwards the victorious army would commit shameful acts on the conquered woman. It is no different with the millions of poor and sex starved men in our population. They have no opportunity to have a full sex life and they are angry. Instead of punishing or avoiding them we should provide them with what they need most, and that is a three dollar hooker.

Ninety percent of the women desire ten percent of the men. Those fortunate men happily live their lives in contentment. They are men with good incomes and they deserve to have as much fun as possible in this short life. The word “Romance” is reserved for them. There is no five hundred dollar hooker as happy as one that has a steady customer. She and her John will think that they are in love. Many rich guys in that situation get married after a long and costly romance. Evita was discovered by Peron, the president of Argentina in a high class brothel. He married her and she then became the first lady. The most expensive brothels have produced wives to the rich and famous. Many beautiful and highly educated women have become hookers for the sole purpose of meeting a generous husband. For many it has proved to be a quick way to get married.

There are many women that will angrily oppose the creation of millions of three dollar hookers. Those women feel that the supply of guys that pay their bills will dwindle. They might be right in some cases but most of the customers of these hookers would be poor men. Those poor men would not be desired by women anyway. Most of the women in the program will be less than attractive, because an attractive hooker could find work without any government help. The homely hooker will be happy to be a useful member of society. They will not be any competition for the average woman. The supply of men that can afford a high maintenance woman would not be changed. They will have no problem paying for women’s entertainment and upkeep. This practice is sure to continue. Besides there are many high paying jobs available for trained women and they don’t have to depend on a guy to support them.

I don’t expect my article to have any impact on the way society works. Politicians and the voter are not ready for the three dollar hooker. But there is a terrible need for her and that need will not go away. All men desire a full sex life and always will. They are entitled to it. I predict that within the next fifty years we will have the three dollar hooker. She will be in millions of bedrooms, and will be respected as an ordinary working lady.

Men and women are not as compatible as is generally thought. Most single men find women useful only as a means to satisfy their sexual needs, but if the woman is the mother of his children she is needed for many other things. Women on the other hand need men for financial reasons and little else. It is surprising that so few men and women accept the fact that they are psychologically unfit for each other.

A heterosexual man will not date the most beautiful or intelligent women for more than a few times unless he is sexually rewarded. I have observed this fact to be true after witnessing thousands of breakups after the man was denied sexual satisfaction. Of cause there are exceptions to the rule but that does not alter my assertion. Most single men after being sexually satisfied find something else to do which leaves the woman alone. It is a rare man that hangs around a woman after she gave him what he was after. It is no different after watching a good movie. When it is over it is time to leave. A man who shares his children with a woman is bound by responsibility. His relationship to her is more complex but his psychological incompatibility remains. More than half of married couples break up before ten years of marriage. They wisely go their own ways. The others remain for financial security or other factors that rarely have anything to do with love.

A single woman spends a lot of her time searching for a husband. The type of guy she is looking for hopefully can give her the financial security she needs to live like a queen. There are not that many wealthy guys available so she compromises and accepts a middle income husband. After having a few children and working like a slave to rear them, she comes to the realization that she does not need him at all. With his child support payments and her job she can have a better lifestyle without his annoyance. After a long court battle for their assets she finally is rid of him. Her house is now her castle and she and the children are happier without him dictating to them. Her phone is now alive with divorcees that want to meet her for dinner or dancing. She is free at last and she will never return to the type of life she just gave up.

The homely women are no longer lonely. They have found lots of girlfriends and spend quality time with them. The community center is not far from their homes and is open all the time. The art classes have taught them how to paint in oils and they are there every evening. Board games are available and women love them. After hearing all the heartbreaking stories from the divorced and sometimes battered women at the center the homely women are happy that they never got involved with a man. It comes to their mind that their homeliness might have served as a blessing.

There is nothing evil about a single man that enjoys sex with a woman. Most men do, and it is programmed into their genes. Men seek out women for the sole purpose of having sexual pleasure. But due to the mindset of women men must not disclose this secret to anyone but trusted male friends. It is against a women’s financial interest to date a guy that is only focused on having sex with her. She wants a man that enjoys only expensive things, and places his sexual desires in a secondary position. Men have interests that are not hers and he does not need the company of a woman to share them.

Men and women should be honest with each other and disclose their real purpose in dating. But if they did they would never date. If a guy told a woman all he wanted from her is sexual pleasure she might slap him and walk away. That is why a man has to lie and tell her that he is interested in theatre and traveling---if he does a love session will soon follow. If a woman told the truth and said all she needs from the guy is financial security or a free vacation in Europe he will be insulted. It is obvious that some sort of give and take values have to be accepted if men and women will be able to get along.

There are sex toys available to women and they work perfectly. Woman that try them never give them up. There is no sexual advantage for a woman having a man. The dildo does a much better job. Men that ask women for a date should be ready to spend enough money to give the lady a great time. If they are broke they are absolutely useless to a woman with a sex toy.

I am a man and understand men’s needs. We all enjoy making love to attractive women. Some men are more fortunate and have a better sex life than others but we all get our hugs and kisses. I think it is wrong to lie to a woman about your real needs. Tell her the truth after you have taken her out nicely. If she thinks you are worth keeping you will get what you are after. Guys that are cheap or broke should stay out of the dating game. They are causing harm to women by their lies. Men and women can get along but only if they are honest with each other.

There are close to a billion attractive women in the third world that are poverty stricken and are often homeless. There is no way for them to earn money and they are abused and made pregnant by unemployed men. They can do nothing but pray that their situation will change. Millions of them are begging for a western lover that will help relieve them of their financial misery. The internet is flooded with their pleas. There is hope for them, because what they have to offer is desperately needed in the western world. They possess what most men want in a woman. This waste of natural resources will end when millions of love starved men from the western world will arrive and flood their villages with financial aid in exchange for love.

It is no secret that wealthy men control most political events. They also control the variety of beautiful women that volunteer to live in their harems. It is impossible for a rich man to be alone in a world full of money hungry women. Bodyguards have to be hired by rich men to keep crowds of women away. It is said that each wealthy man fathers thousands of children and enjoys his fertility without any responsibility. Do those fortunate men want to help the poor pensioner who has no choice but to make love to an old or homely woman? Or the poor guy who has to stay home and masturbate? The answer to both questions is NO.



A new type of Berlin Airlift has to be formed. This is the only way to transport the estimated three hundred million sexually frustrated pensioners in the western world. The planes should be loaded with poor and horny men with their small but big enough pension checks. They will be dropped off in third world villages and set free to rescue money hungry women from poverty. This will be a fair trade that will create a heaven on earth for poor women and horny men. Any guy who is tired of the high cost he is paying for western women can join the airlift. This whole operation will be the biggest humanitarian effort in the history of mankind

The Idea of a government sponsored airlift to third world villages would be welcomed by poor and horny pensioners, but it will be ignored by rich and sexually content men. Since the rich control political decisions the airlift of the love starved pensioners won’t be quickly begun. Women in the western world will also be against the mass departure of men to a less expensive area of the world. They have become accustomed to being lavishly wined and dined and it would be a nightmare for them if potential dinner dates were leaving the country. The airports would be blockaded by millions of women that would not let the airplanes take off. There would be no way for the love starved pensioners to depart. The National Guard would have to be called out to open the runways. There would be chaos at the airports.
One of the problems with this humanitarian effort would be the anger of the unemployed natives, because many of them would be replaced by the pensioners as lovers. In some cases they might resort to violence against their competition. But law and order will soon be established and the jealous male natives will have to learn how to increase their income or remain without women.
The great idea of poor pensioners being transported to third world villages under government protection cannot be swept under the carpet. Sexual needs are great and are too important to be ignored. Many will not wait for the airlift to begin. If necessary they will hack their way through the jungles of the world to meet the woman of their dreams. The rest will vote for the politicians that offer them an airlift to a paradise where there is a better and less expensive sex life. Until then the billions of financially and sexually frustrated people will have to patiently wait for the airlift to begin.

Over eating is the main cause of being over weight. Less food equals less weight. The media is full of dieting programs that promise its followers that they will lose weight. A few of them are helpful. There are some people who were over weight and have dieted successfully. They are now happier with themselves and are no longer an eyesore to others. The new life they lead is suddenly full of helpful people and smiling faces. Now that they have realized the importance of a good appearance, few of them will ever let themselves become heavy again

Obese people have a wide range of problems; most of them are caused by being overweight. Their negative appearance puts them in a class of people who are trapped in a social and emotional hell. Because of their eating disorder some psychiatrists consider them to be dysfunctional, and also mentally ill. If the condition is severe enough doctors say that they should be given federal disability payments. It is hard for a heavy person to get a low cost life or health insurance policy, which is because overweight people are seldom healthy. Statistics show that being over weight takes ten years off a person’s life. Job Interviewers give the edge to those that keep their weight down. They feel that a person who can’t control their eating habits is a poor hiring choice. They also feel that the good appearance of a firm’s employees adds to the stature of the company
Dieting has not helped and you will always be heavy. How can you learn to deal with your weight problem? The first thing to do is accept the fact that fat is not beautiful and that you have to live with it. A dwarf never says that short is beautiful but learns to accept the limitations nature imposed, and goes on from there to find a good life. It is no different with a person that is over weight. If you accept your limitations you will be in a position to improve yourself socially and financially. Another thing to be aware of is that nobody will love your fat except a rare individual. So stop looking for fat lovers--- it is a waste of time.

If you are over weight and looking for a job, opportunity is limited. There are ten slim applicants for every decent job. The best strategy in that case is to humble your self and be willing to work long hours for less pay. A boss is always looking for a bargain and you will be it. Once you get the job work hard and that job will be yours. Let the slim job seekers run their own race and you run yours.

Getting a mate without being slim is an art in itself. Again the fat becomes a disadvantage that has to be overcome. If a guy is over weight he can be generous and most women will be happy to date him. If he is cheap he will have to stay home alone. A heavy woman will have to offer something besides her fat to a guy. It is usually hot love. It would help if she had other special qualities outside of her bedroom. Fat people are not attracted to one another because of the heavy layers of fat that they carry. If you look deep into their relationship you will see other reasons that have nothing to do with their weight

It’s a give and take world and without a good appearance you better learn how to give a lot. There is no other way. If you stand firm and say that being heavy has little to do with the way people look at you, get ready for a cruel awakening. Being heavy is an eye sore and you have to accept that as a fact. Flexibility and compromise are the magic words that are needed if an over weight person is going to get a shot at having a decent life

After a day at sea the married couple was getting panicky, they thought that they would not be rescued before their water supply ran out and that they would die of thirst. If only they had listened to their travel agent and took a cruise across the pacific on the Queen, this would not have happened. They were a wealthy couple from Hollywood Hills; they had every thing that money can buy, and now their lives were going to end. They looked at Pedro with contempt as he took a swig of their precious water supply. The water that was going into his mouth could be what they needed to save their lives. His life to them was not as precious as the water he was devouring, and they wished that they had left him on the sinking boat. It infuriated them that he shared the life raft. They had to get rid of him, but Pedro was a strong man and they would never be able to push him overboard. The couple whispered for hours and they came up with an offer that Pedro would not refuse. They spoke to him about his family and his concern for them if he died. They told him that they could wire their brokerage account in Los Angeles and with a secret password could send a check of one million dollars to each one of his family in exchange for Pedro’s life. All Pedro had to do after the wire was dispatched was to put on the life jacket and quietly float away. With little chance of living and out of concern for his family Pedro soon agreed. After the wire was sent from the ship to shore transmitter Pedro slowly started to put on the lifejacket and that was when he pulled out the small revolver he had taken with him. He fired two bullets. The dead couple was then thrown into the sea and Pedro was now alone. A ship was still not in sight even though Pedro kept transmitting distress signals. He then received a message that there had been a mistake in calculating his location and a trawler was now on the way, but it could not possibly arrive before three days. That message was a death sentence because there was barely enough water left to last another day. A hot sun and no water can drive a person insane. Delusions and hallucinations accompany a man dying of thirst. Pedro took out the gun and put it in his dry mouth and blew the top of his head off. All was now quiet on the beautiful Pacific and thirst was gone.

The mailman came early that day and lunch was not yet served. Maria was watching her children playing with the soccer ball, but her mind was on Pedro. She missed him and was patiently waiting for his return. He would not be back for another three months. She opened up the important looking brown envelope and looked at six checks each was for a million dollars. Her and her children’s name appeared on the checks. She thought it was a holy miracle, and ran down to the church to speak to the Father. Together they thanked the Lord and went to the Central Bank in Acapulco where she deposited the checks. After leaving her new address with the church for Pedro when he returned, she and the children were on their way to the best hotel in Mexico City. Pedro did not return but the family went on to build good lives for themselves. They hoped one day after his life at sea Pedro would join them.

My wife was a practical and thrifty woman, so it was agreed that we would put twenty five percent of our salaries into the mutual fund that I had started a few years back, it would still leave us enough to enjoy our lives. Years later my son finished high school and searched for a good college to go to. He asked me for a loan of two hundred thousand dollars. That was the four year cost of the college he had chosen. Upon graduation he would need another hundred thousand dollars to get his masters degree. I sat him down and opened up the statement from my mutual fund. He gasped when he saw a million dollars. I told him that he could also be a rich man if he followed in his parents foot steps. I opened up a mutual fund for him and deposited the three hundred thousand dollars that he was going to spend on college. He was hired by the same company that I worked for and started work the next week.




He is now married and the owner of his own home. His wife works as a saleslady, and is also a practical and thrifty woman. They put away twenty five percent of their income in a mutual fund. They have a young son, who I am sure will never go to college.

Her spiritual guide at the monastery would be proud to see how well she was handling her journey. She left him after he blessed her with enlightenment.



Her afternoon nap was disturbed by the manager of the fast food restaurant that she used as a mailing address. He had an envelope for her. She thanked him and then opened the envelope. In it was a letter from her mother. It said that her brother was graduating from the same Cambridge College where she had received a master’s degree. He had made arrangements for her to be a speaker at the ceremony. Her mother added that she was sure that her daughter would drop everything and be there.


The bag Lady didn’t have the money to purchase round trip airfare tickets to Cambridge. The only way to get the money without becoming a hooker was to give a performance at the downtown strip club. She did it whenever she needed money. Her Guru always told her to do whatever was necessary, and she would follow his wisdom.


She was billed as the harmonica playing bag lady, and the club was packed with men and women. After having a few martinis the bag lady climbed up on the stage. She was wearing three torn dresses and two oversized hats. The audience and the band gave her a loud ovation and then there was silence. The bag Lady took out her harmonica and played fast Irish dancing music, and then she started to do an Irish jig. This drove the crowd wild. They began yelling in a chorus for her to remove her baggy clothes. She put down her harmonica and the band started playing some slow sexy music. It took almost an hour before she was completely nude. The crowd gasped in astonishment as she did a belly grind. Wads of money were thrown on the stage. The bag lady picked them up, threw a kiss at the audience, and quickly headed to the air terminal.


She was wearing a black dress and red shoes that she had purchased at a ladies shop in Cambridge. One would never even dream that a few days ago she was swimming in a dumpster. Her former class mates greeted her warmly as she climbed the stage not as a stripper, but as an honor graduate of one of the best schools in the north east. The professors on the stage smiled and shook her hand, they were all happy to see her again. And then she addressed the student body.


The topic was about self discovery and how important it is to build a foundation upon who you really are. She explained how futile it is to adorn your self with material things while the inner self is neglected. After dinner with her parents and brother she was on a flight back to L.A.


The dumpster was overstocked and the goodies were spread out all over the parking lot. There was no need for dumpster diving today; all she had to do was pick up what ever looked tasty. But she couldn’t wait for the return of a normal day of serious dumpster diving.
