Machismo EXPRESS

I   L.O.V.E.  IT! ♥♥

For those who like trains like me, this movie is about a powerful moving train without a driver.

One of the most exciting and economical rides you can take: 1 million tons of steel, 100,000 people risking their lives in 100 minutes of a possible impact.

The train is beautiful and looks like the villain of the story. It seems…

In spite of amazing simplicity it works regardless of any cliché.

And I don’t get thrilled with just anything… But these ‘metal dinosaurs’ have always fascinated me! Always.

So… out of the way or get on board!

Inspired by true events of May 15, 2001 in Walbridge, Ohio, where the train went 106 km (66 miles).

Very Essencial Freshness

Not all dogs like water or swimming that much, but ALL dogs can benefit from the effects of ‘cooling’ in a pool… especially in the worst time of the summer. N.O.W !!

A shallow children’s swimming pool in a shady corner of the backyard can be a great benefit even for your ‘no water’ puppies.
Feet in cold water makes a ‘hot dog’ a very happy animal this time of year.
Even some who do not like to swim will like to roll around in the cool water!
Even old, ‘hot dogs’ can learn new tricks. :-)


Because the question is not: “do they reason?” But rather: ‘do they suffer?”

(CAUTION ears! Dry thoroughly afterwards).


(this swimming pool only costs $11 in any WalMart.)

Answer me now: why does a man hope his prayers for mercy are heard by a ‘Higher One’ if he does not show it to those below him? Hmm?

L.I.F.E. in any form is our perpetual responsibility.

Pass on this idea and help those animals that are left outside while their owners are at work 8 hours a day. And if you have Facebook click ‘I LIKE IT‘ and ‘SHARE‘. What will it cost you? 2 Cliks?

How to be Ready for a Hurricane

When the trees shake their heads heavily, you know that the strong winds of a hurricane is coming. So this is how you prepare for it:

hurricanetrees

1 – With the gas tank full and cash always in your pocket.

2 – With a list of phone numbers that are important to you, emergency contacts, relatives, phone physician, close friends.

3 – Renting or owning a house, you must have a list of what’s valuable. You can also film or take photos. Make sure not to leave it behind. Send a copy to someone you trust.

4 – Know in advance where you will go if you have to leave home. Choose from a family member or friend, who lives in another city, a hotel, motel or shelter that the government sets up for such occasions. Keep the phone numbers of these places on hand, as well as a map, in case you do not know how to get there.

5 – If you need help to escape a hurricane, your city should have a phone number for this, check with your City Hall, or call 2-1-1.

6 – If you have one or more animals, include them in your escape plan, never leave them behind. Confirm before, if they are welcome where you go. Some hotels always accept small pets, others, only in cases of emergency. We would live inside the cars with them, if necessary — never leave them behind.

I’ve never been to a shelter, but I’ve heard that they direct your pet to the shelter of specific animals in your town.

During hurricane Ike in 2008, we went to a hotel where dogs were accepted. It was a tremendous experience for our JRT, puppy, Toby!

In the same city, in another hotel, my friends were with her cat and since that hotel did not accept cats, the manager offered and let Jackeline stayed at his house, until my friends decided to go back home.

That’s how Texan people are, especially in emergencies.

My God, I have so many stories to tell about the hurricanes that we have been through! But never unprepared.

One unforgettable time I left a little sand on my balcony, at the height of the window and the side that’s to the sea.

We left home and spent a week in Dallas. When we returned we saw so much destruction, on a trip of five hours that took 12! Fallen trees and damaged homes all the way, and on my block too, but my handful of sand was just the way I left it, intact, as well as our home.

Of course we had prayed before, and every day away from home.

Share this information with those who you think might be benefited by it, so far fewer people are caught unprepared.
