Ring the bells of
freedom,On this 4th. day of July,And listen for the shrilling
sounds,Of the many who did die! Wave the Royal Banner,On this
4th. day of July,Lift it high toward the heavens,In honor of the
many who did die! Join hearts and hands together,To form a ring
great and wide,Keep safe her many memories,Encircled deep and
safe inside! Her colors have great meaning,Her Red, her White,
her Blue.Yes, her colors do remind us,To be faithful, brave and
true. Her Red, stands for the blood shed,For the likes of you and
me.If it were not for blood shed,America would not be, FREE! Her
White, stands for her purity. It shines both day and night,To lift
the hopes of many.As it sheds abroad it's light. Her Blue,
reflects the heavens,So, look up toward the sky,And remember
those who did sacrifice,On this, 4th. day of July!!

Also remember the Blood shed of our
Saviour,who gave us our Spiritual Freedom!
Three men were hiking through a forest when they came upon a
large raging, violent river. Needing to get to the other side,
the first man prayed: "God, please give me the strength to cross
the river." Poof!.....God gave him big arms and strong legs and
he was able to swim across in about 2 hours, having almost
drowned twice. After witnessing that, the second man
prayed: "God, please give me the strength and the tools to cross
the river." Poof!......God gave him a rowboat and strong arms and
strong legs and he was able to row across in about an hour after
almost capsizing once. Seeing what happened to the first two men,
the third man prayed: "God, please give me the strength, the
tools and the intelligence to cross the river." Poof!.....He was
turned into a woman. She checked the map, hiked two hundred yards
up stream and walked across the bridge.
A doctor died and went to hell. He was met at the gate and asked
to stand in a room and wait for Satan. After 4 hours Satan
finally appeared. The doctor was incensed. Poking his watch he
said, "How could you keep me waiting so long!! I am an important
man! I'm a doctor!"
Satan replied, "Doctors are a dime a dozen here in Hell. But I'll
tell you what. Since you had to wait so long, I will give you a
choice of which part of hell you will spend eternity in." Satan
took the doctor down a hall and said, "Here. I'll be back
shortly. You can choose between Door #1 and Door #2. I'll be back
and you can let me know where you want to be assigned."
The doctor opened Door #1. Inside was an Intensive Care Unit.
Blood was spurting, alarms were going off and patients were
coding. A man in the corner extubated himself as a woman in the
center fell out of bed. The doctor quickly shut the door and
said, "My God, I really am in Hell. I'd better check Door #2."
Behind Door #2 was a Medical Records Department. Unfinished
charts stretched for miles with notations about delinquent H&Ps.
Message slips from Managed Care Case Managers filled a swimming
pool sized bin, all marked Urgent. Inside, physicians were
dictating as sweat poured off their brows. The doctor shut the
door and said, "I don't know which one is worse."
Then he noticed another door off to the side. He opened it and
inside was a tidy nurse's station. The nurses were all young and
beautiful. There were busily making rounds with doctors and
calling to obtain lab and x-ray results. They poured coffee and
served donuts purchased with their own money. One doctor
complained of a stiff neck and a nurse rubbed it for him. "Now
this is more like it." the doctor thought as he closed the door.
Satan came strolling back down the hall and said, "Well, which
have you decided on, Door #1 or Door #2?"
The doctor replied, "Actually, I would like to go behind Door #3."
"That's not an option." said Satan.
"But...that's what I want!" said the doctor.
Satan replied, "I'm sorry, but you can't go in there. That's Hell
for nurses."
A man realized he needed to purchase a hearing aid, but he felt
unwilling to spend much money. "How much do they run?" he asked
the clerk.
"That depends," said the salesman. "They run from $2.00 to $2,000."
"Let's see the $2.00 model," he said.
The clerk put the device around the man's neck. "You just stick
this button in your ear and run this little string down to your
pocket," he instructed.
"How does it work?" the customer asked.
"For $2.00, it doesn't work," the salesman replied. "But when
people see it on you, they'll talk louder!"
