For Barbara...

Though I concur with Barbara seeing a Doc ASAP - especially an Endo and perhaps Renal [Kidney] Specialist as well.

Barbara, your responsibility is to yourself first. If you do not take care of you - you will not be worth a flip to anyone else. We all all know , and admire how you give of yourself.

This is something that was forwarded to me - way back when.
Barbara I figured could use a little "pick-me-up".
Then again I imagine Barbara won't   mind if the rest of us steal this...I mean where do you think I got it?


For a couple years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep,
not enough sunshine,  too much pressure from my job,
earwax build-up, poor blood or anything else  I could think of.
But now I found out the real reason:
I'm tired because I'm overworked.
Here's why:
The population of this country is 273 million.
140 million are retired.
That leaves 133 million to do the work.
There are 85 million in school.
Which leaves 48 million to do the work.
Of this there are 29 million employed by the federal government.
Leaving 19 million to do the work.
2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama Bin
Laden.
Which leaves 16.2 million to do the work.
Take from the total the 14.8 million people who work for state and city
governments.
And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.
At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals.
Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.
Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.
That leaves just two people to do the work.
You and me.
And there you are sitting on your ass, at your computer, reading jokes.
Nice, real nice.
