    Smile Astounding!!!

    As this is my never to be forgotten, all important, 1,538th post, I thought that I would share with you all the folowing INCREDIBLE fact!!!

    During the Ming Dynasty of China, a tidal wave floods over the seawall in Haiyan County of Zhejiang province, inundating the agricultural crop fields with saltwater and ruining many acres of crops. This drives up the price of foodstuffs and many are forced to live off of tree bark and weeds (as one Wang Wenlu stated in his writing of 1545).

    This event took place on November 30th 1538. I am sure that you will agree with me that all other news about life, the Universe and everything now pales into insignificance!!!

    Please, sleep well and don't have nightmares.

    Al.

    It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good to check up once in a while to make sure you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.
