    If you own a gift basket business, assemble baskets featuring a direct sales consultant's products, and customers are purchasing from both of you at once Cool movies and cool dog names seem to go hand in hand In 1979 the IBM 3800 was capable of printing out 20,000 lines per minute If you are brooding over the past, you'll be blinded to present possibilities, and lose the advantage for future prospects
    Next time your pooch needs a bath, focus on giving him a massage while you're working the shampoo into his coat Take baby clips using a SHARP nail clipper (my preference is spring style or cat clippers for small dogs)

    But don't be fooled the Scopes Monkey Trial will go down in history as the only bout ever won by the evolutionists You could workout, read books, learn a new subject ? languages, cookery, swimming, diving, computers, wine-tasting, crafts, astronomy, astrology, music, advanced driving, drama, take up a new sport ? the list is endless The color of the horse now changes to a pale color
