Food for thought

COWS
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that during the mad cow epidemic our government could track a
single cow, born in Bourne almost three years ago, right to the stall where she slept in the county of Lincolnshire?
And, they even tracked her calves to their stalls.
But they are unable to locate 125,000 illegal immigrants wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.

THE BRITISH CONSTITUTION
 
They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq ...
Why don't we just give them ours? It was drawn up by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for centuries and we're not using it anymore

Let's put the seniors in jail and the criminals in a nursing home.  This way the seniors would have access to showers, hobbies and walks.   
They'd receive unlimited free prescriptions, dental and medical treatment, wheel chairs etc and they'd receive money instead of paying it out.
They would have constant video monitoring, so they could be helped instantly, if they fell, or needed assistance.
Bedding would be washed twice a week, and all clothing would be ironed and returned to them. A guard would check on them every 20 minutes and bring their meals and snacks to their cell.   
They would have family visits in a suite built for that purpose.
They would have access to a library, weight room, spiritual counseling, pool and education.
Simple clothing, shoes, slippers, PJ's and legal aid would be free, on request.
Private, secure rooms for all, with an  exercise outdoor yard, with  gardens.
Each senior could have a PC a TV radio and daily phone calls.
There would be a board of directors to hear complaints, and the guards would have a code of conduct that would be strictly adhered to.

The "criminals" would get cold food, be left all alone and unsupervised.
Lights off at 8pm, and showers once a week.
Live in a tiny room and pay £900.00 per month and have no hope of ever getting out.   
Justice for all we say.

Bumped into a sledge team again in Devilla Forest, love that idea and they fed raw diet and recomended it!!!!! Not sure how or the economics but I may try!!!!!!!
I worked in social services and jobs related to addition and conviction and now with the B&B see mostly men, from all over, chase £££££'s..all are struggling whereas..some local people, just moved in have had at least 6 taxis today and non work :o :o When we did not have a car, I would walk one way or take my bike and carry the shopping on the handle bars..for F sake we are only 3 miles from the shops!!!!! and they are young and healthy looking people!! If I had my time again I would never work and never have stress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3 MILES!  Goodness me, Sandy there's the Co-op practically next door to them!  Hope they don't give you any more worry.  I got an approximate cost from Stu and Katy of about £60 a month for my 5 dogs on raw food if that's any help.
