Take Back Your Life!As a nation and a world we have set our selves up for illness, disease, and obesity. We run in a constant state of going to and from work to make more money to spend on a whole lot of stuff we don't really need. We have been brainwashed into thinking that more is always better. As a consequence we are all being tightly wedged into financial distress. That is the state of the world we live in today. Most people are also constantly and consistently fighting the aging process and obsessing over how they look. They also obsess about their weight. Take a moment and look around you. What do you see?

Jun 23, 2009, Fighting for My Internet LifeIn case any of you wondered where I have been this week... I have been fighting for my internet life, as I know it. Because of our state budget deficits, NC is trying to pass a law that would tax click through income. Many advertisers (how I make my online money) would simply pull out of NC completely, if this 'Nexus tax clause' is left in the budget. One huge corporation, whom I depend on and love, has already threatened to do this and others may follow. Since NC has to pass a budget by July 1, it is imperative that I concentrate my energies and efforts on contacting state representatives and congressmen. I have written many letters but I also need your prayers. If this law passes, I stand to lose my business and all the hard work I have done over the last 4 years. My son Lars, who many of you know has learning disabilities, and I would lose most of our online income. This would be devastating to us financially as we depend on that money each and every month. What NC is trying to do is underhanded and unlawful, according to much that I have read about the Nexus laws. NC right now, has one of the highest unemployment rates in the country. (11.1%) If this law passes, many small and medium sized businesses would go under and the unemployment rates would sky rocket. Keeping this new tax would have exactly the opposite effect! Plus, many people would simply leave NC so those taxes would be lost too! Typical bureaucratic bull crap! I am waiting and praying that it will all work out and will return asap!
