    Our defense is in the preservation of the spirit which prizes liberty as a heritage of all men, in all lands, everywhere. Destroy this spirit and you have planted the seeds of despotism around your own doors.

    A man that has so many friends, good friends as I do, feels very rich no matter the money I have or have not.

    You are my fortune that wet my eyes and warm my heart, you are the reason for me to come back and post everyday.

    Thank you

    Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend - or a meaningful day.

    Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

    There are sometimes in life that words don't seem enough to express our feelings, all the attempts of saying thank you, seem so clumsy and cannot fit with the happiness that a friends gift gives to you.

    It were the several attempts from many of my friends on this team but not only, other persons from other teams as they understood my problem, gave a step forward and said: I am here, what do you need?

    That would be enough to give me that strange feeling that makes us cry and feel happy at the same time and I just know that much more of you would do the same, the sacred friendship in you worth much more than money, in a built for this team, made of solidarity and the better feelings that human kind can produce.

    For this one and many other reasons I am very proud off you and need to say in the very used words, THANK YOU, I would highlight, blink and twist them and would still wouldn't be enough, for you to know how much this means to me.

    To zombie67 that bought offered me the parts I need,
    to paul_l, DrBackJack and all the friends on chatzilla that step forward,
    to Myshortpencil that offered and tried to convince me when I was not ready to accept,
    and to all of you that would step forward, to say I am here or even did it without my knowledge.

    To all of you

    The United Nations initiated a poll with the request, "Please tell us your honest opinion about the lack of food in the rest of the world."

    The poll was a total failure.

    The Russians did not understand "Please".

    The Italians did not know the word "honest".

    The Chinese did not know what an "opinion" was.

    The Europeans did not know "lack", while the Africans did not know "food".

    Finally, the Americans didn't know anything about the "rest of the world".

    We may think in a lot of things, when is our time to fight for a better world.

    What is deep inside us as a big secret, are the proud of our family and friends, with the integrity of our home, because we share all those immaterial things, like very old memories or laughs and cries.

    For all of us, no matter where we were born, under what religion and on any color of the skin, for most of the human beings, these feeling is living deep inside, that we can find our way home and have the old smells between the warm of our beloved, from blood or from our choice.

    That is the only approval we all need, the silent complicity of touch, hugs and kisses on our corner of the world.

    And suddenly we are home and we understand that home has always been with us.

    Amen to all that, my friend!


    If it's not broken, give me 5 more minutes!
