12.01.2022 A beautiful, inspiring list to take us into 2013! 7% Written by Regina Brett, 90 years old, of the Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio .... "To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 42 lessons life taught me. It is the most requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more: 1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good. 2. When in doubt, just take the next small step. 3. Life is too short enjoy it.. 4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and family will. 5. Pay off your credit cards every month. 6. You don't have to win every argument. Stay true to yourself. 7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone. 8. Save for retirement starting with your first pay check. 9. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile. 10. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present. 11. It's OK to let your children see you cry. 12. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about. 13. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it... 14 Take a deep breath. It calms the mind. 15. Get rid of anything that isn't useful. Clutter weighs you down in many ways. 16. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger. 17. It's never too late to be happy. But it’s all up to you and no one else. 18. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer. 19. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special. 20. Over prepare, then go with the flow. 21. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple. 22. The most important sex organ is the brain. 23. No one is in charge of your happiness but you. 24. Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?' 25. Always choose life. 26. Forgive but don’t forget. 27. What other people think of you is none of your business. 28. Time heals almost everything. Give time time. 29. However good or bad a situation is, it will change. 30. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.. 31. Believe in miracles. 32. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now. 33. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young. 34. Your children get only one childhood. 35. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved. 36. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere. 37. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back. 38. Envy is a waste of time. Accept what you already have not what you need. 39. The best is yet to come... 40. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up. 41. Yield. 42. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift." Its estimated 93% won't forward this. If you are one of the 7% who will, forward this with the title '7%'. I'm in the 7%. Friends are the family that we choose

03.01.2022 NEWS FLASH Young cellist hospitalized after sustaining life-threatening injuries onboard a Spirit Airlines flight from Chicago O’Hare to New York (LGA). The nightmare began as Ms. Li waited in line to board at her gate. A Spirit airlines employee confronted Ms. Li after noticing a large plastic case protruding from her back, and demanded the cellist check her luggage.... Ms. Li, who says she usually buys an extra seat for her cello but could not afford to this time, was hoping her cello could be stowed in a closet in the plane’s cabin. Spirit employees denied this possibility. Fearing for her cello’s safety, and aware of the many horror stories of instruments being damaged aboard aircrafts, Ms. Li requested to check herself instead. To her surprise, the Spirit employees accepted Ms. Li’s proposal. I’m very protective of my instrument, Ms. Li said in an interview from her hospital bed. I mean, my cello is worth $1.2 million. And I’m worth . . . well, I don’t really know how much people cost but it’s probably not that much. As her cello was escorted to its seat aboard the aircraft by flight attendants, Ms. Li was hoisted up and slung over the shoulder of a baggage handler. The two handlers marched her to a designated screening zone at the foot of the plane, where she underwent a routine baggage inspection. Following the inspection, TSA employees tied her hands and feet together with a nylon cable and duct-taped her mouth shut and dragged her up the ramp into the belly of the aircraft where the passengers’ luggage is stowed during the flight. She was then flung atop a pile of suitcases, like a rag doll. During the two-and-a-half hour flight, Ms. Li sustained several serious injuries while being tossed violently among the passengers’ luggage. In addition to lacerations to her body and a broken neck, the unregulated temperature caused cracked lips and skin, according to medical reports. As she was being battered beneath the cabin, Ms. Li’s instrument was receiving first-class service. The cello was polished, restrung, and her bow received a complimentary fresh coat of rosin. It even got to visit the cockpit where the co-pilot, an amateur cellist himself. When the plane finally arrived at LaGuardia Airport in New York City, Ms. Li lay face down underneath a pair of heavy-duty Samsonites. Her disfigured body was transported to the baggage claim, where she came tumbling down the ramp to the base of the conveyor belt, unconscious. Paramedics rushed her to Roosevelt Hospital where she remains in critical but stable condition. Shocked and dismayed, her cello reportedly witnessed the scene from a distance at the baggage claim. The 320-year-old Stradivarius is now looking for a new owner. 3:)
