[MD] head, heart and hands

Hey Andre

eat." Today if you don't work you're rewarded with a handout from the
socialist government. What the socialists never ask is what happens when the
workers wise up and discover it pays to be a freeloader. Tea party anyone?

Marsha:
What more would be required of a purpose?   Painting, writing,
woodworking, motorcycle maintenance anyone?

Andre:
Hi Marsha, my father, in response to this question would take my left hand,
hold it up to my face (thumb up) and ask: The lines in your palm, what does
it read?' I'd say" It is an 'M'.
Then he took my right hand, twisting it down (thumb down) and ask; 'What
does it read now?', and I'd say: 'W' .Then he said: Okay, so that's MW".What
does it stand for? Of course I didn't know. He said:' It means Must Work!
That is our purpose in life'.

What do you do with something like that as an 8-year old?
