Guess U R right, Chatty. That is a scary thought! Happy Halloween a day late and a dollar short! Ciao for now...

THAT'S toooooooo funny! lol

Josie,
I doubt if Melinda would shed such a guy. But hey, it's worth a
laugh!

lol To be honest jabber, Bill Gates is kinda creepy lookin', don't you think?

My hubby is a combo of Harry Hottie, George Geek, and Harry Handy ....with a dash of Billy Crystal humor every now and then. He makes my heart go pitter patter, he drives me crazy, and he is always doing something to make me think, "What a GUY!"

By no means is he perfect, and neither am I. God brought us together on the Internet and to this day I am in awe that hubby and I are such a perfect fit.

I guess when it comes right down to it, I would never have married for money or looks. I was looking for certain things in a solid package. And I was not going to "settle" which maybe I did when I was much younger.(only I did not know it then)

Anyway, I'm always in favor of: Whatever works for YOU is the way it should be. (as long as it's legal)

I was only joking about Bill Gates! I'm very much in awe of
WB and think he's wonderful, most of the time. We have our moments, like everyone. WB is my 2nd husband. That's enough!
Josie, I enjoy joking; life is full of too much sadness.

Regarding Bill Gates, I do admire any human being who can begin
with nothing and end up being one of the richest people in the
world. The Bill and Melinda Gates foundations give billions to
charity, which provide vaccines that save millions of babies lives! Scary or not, the man's a saint, IMO!

Your opinion counts, Jabber. There are a lot of people who give to charities that are admired...and they may or may not be loved by the entire public, but so what? The good they do cannot be overlooked.

Lots of people didn't care for Elvis, but they would be astounded to know the people he helped in his lifetime.

I don't care for Michael Jackson. Never have. But I cannot argue that he gave wonderful music to our lives! That's a contribution in and of itself. So bravo to him, I say, and I mean it.

Lots of good in a lot of people...lots.

Hi Jabber: I hope by now you saw my post where I laughed and clearly knew you were joking. I was just offering my own dry wit on the subject. I guess I was too dry this time. Sorry.

Josie,
Your post is cool. No worry. I just got to thinking about all
those babies alive because of Gates' charity. And jj is right,
there are so many wonderful people in the world. And it's nice
to focus on the good in the world, rather than the bad stuff
that's goin' on!

I totally agree, Jabber. Bill Gates and his lovely wife Melinda are doing so much good through their philanthropic works around the world.

Warren Buffet comes to mind as well. This wonderful man announced in 2006 that he was leaving 83% of his vast billions to the Bill & Melnida Gates Foundation. I believe that makes him the most financially benevolent person in the history of the world.

I love it when self-made people reach the pinnacle of financial success in this great country of ours and then they use their good fortune to help countless others reach their own full potential.
