 ONE COMPLAINING CRAB FINALLY GETS WHAT HE WANTS !!
 

High time, too!
There he was, flat on his back, angrily flailing his claws to no one in particular.
He was all alone on the beach until I came along, so no matter how strenuously he tried to draw attention, it was not happening.
He clawed the air helplessly, apparently after waves on the Bay lifted his fragile body and shoved it ashore,
All alone, there was no way he could right himself and crawl back into the water.
Seeing his plight, I thought of chronic crabs I've known. They never seems to be able to right themselves and stop clawing.
Anyway, ever so carefully so as not to damage his legs or body I nudged him with a bit of drift wood, turned him right side up, then slowly, gently, pushed him inch by inch back into the water.
Moments later, apparently safe and sound, he disappeared.
I think he was all wet and as happy as a crab can be!

 ALMOST 1/3 OF AMERICANS SEE NO USE FOR THE WEB IN THEIR LIVES -
 

Obviously, you, personally, are on it!
WHY?
What's it doing for you?
I've been on the Internet for only a few years.
My grown children have been on much longer.
I think they were a little shocked when I got into it.
Now, I have no idea how I lived without it!

 DOG SAVES OWNER'S LIFE WITH HEIMLICH MANEUVER -
 

When a 45 year old woman in Calvert Md. choked on a piece of apple, she tried unsuccessfully to give herself the Heimlich maneuver.
Her 2 year old golden retriever, then repeatedly jumped on her chest until the apple was dislodged.
Next, the dog licked her face as though to keep her from fainting.
The woman is o.k., with only paw marks on her chest.
She says she just looks at her pet in amazement.

 HOW'S YOUR STEERING ?
 

A solitary soul in a sleek, handcrafted kayak cautiously steered his way through dangerous Bay ice floes Friday.
He must have been the first brave boater on the Bay this season.
Expertly guiding his long wooden craft through ice bergs, dodging the big ones - cruising through the small - his action reminded me of life's challenges - taking them on, one at a time-
We stay afloat.
We sink or swim.
It all depends on how we steer.

 KIDNAPPERS THREATEN DEATH , SO FEARLESS BOTANIST DESIGNS GARDEN
 

When an English botanist and companion searched for orchids in South America, Marxist guerrillas captured them, warning one that he'd be executed in five hours.
So, the botanist quickly planned a garden of 8,000 world plants for the castle that had been in his family for 29 generations.
As the end of five hours drew near, the two suddenly were released, with no explanation.
Since that horrible experience, the botanist has made his garden a reality.
20,000 visitors enjoy it every year, providing enough income to save the family from losing their castle to bankruptcy.
