Hi Harlan,

My name is Joe and I live in Illinois. I am converting all your entries to editable text and re-posting on the BTB site.

For your entries, it appears the BTB site does not allow for certain types of formatting with in the areas of columns and such. Rather, it is a fairly straight-forward line break format. I also won't change any of the text as I am unsure whether you wanted it that way or not. In short, the text will be exactly like you typed it with the exception of complex formatting.

For now, that is it. I just did the first web page of entries (10 total) and will get to the other 4 web pages this weekend.

So something new for you in 2012. I know it is not a huge deal in the big picture, but just know that you are on the internet.

Joe

LEXINGTON, N.C. — Do you have change for a million-dollar bill?

Police say a North Carolina man insisted his million-dollar note was real when he was buying $476 worth of items at a Walmart.

Investigators told the Winston-Salem Journal that 53-year-old Michael Fuller tried to buy a vacuum cleaner, a microwave oven and other items. Store employees called police after his insistence that the bill was legit, and Fuller was arrested.

The largest bill in circulation is $100. The government stopped making bills of up to $10,000 in 1969.

Fuller was charged with attempting to obtain property by false pretense and uttering a forged instrument. He is in jail on a $17,500 bond, and it isn't clear if he has an attorney. He is scheduled to be in court Tuesday.

Have you ever thought about graphic art school? Putting your art into video games is a great idea! Plus once you're filthy rich you can kick down some cash for your sister for giving you the idea. :)

Read Doreen Virtue & Sylvia Brown, also there is other ones that I find interesting about OOBE's. It may help explain some of the energy questions you have.

Is it crime or unacceptability? For instance, if someone takes a life while defending themselves we call it justifyable, if its an accident then it becomes manslaughter, but if it is intentional it's murder. So where are the guidelines? Morality of course, but then who sets those standards? Humans do, so really it comes down to what is humane and what is not. Helping kittens- very humane, robbing the same people later - mistake, but if you only helped with the kittens to aid in your later theft...then that is not humane. When you are stealing to support your family does the rule change? Of course not, theft is theft, murder is murder. How you "feel" about the crime I think is what sets it apart. If you feel bad for having hurt someone then you have the morality to have made a better choice. However, if you only feel bad for having been caught then your morility is useless and your humanity non-existent. Price and risk are a funny thing, what I might be willing to do is different then what someone else might be willing to do...and of course the reasoning will also be different. I would give my life for my son, but would I give it if it was to help him hurt someone else?... No, I don't think I would...but someone else might for their child. We are no different out here...the same thoughts and ideas run through our minds... when you don't have money to pay bills or put food on the table and it feels like the only alternative is to rob someone, the thoughts are most definitly present, the ideas running rampant, but the decision to not do it is what sets us apart. The notion that if I'm caught and go to jail I would be no better off helping than I am now and I would also be away from ever helping when I could, is not the only reason... There is something that clicks in my mind, something that says that it feels wrong. That little voice of humanity and morality kicks in, that not only am I jeopordizing myself, but I'm hurting someone else...that's what would stop me. Its not someone being more intelligent than another, but I think some of us act on our thoughts before our brains have time to suss out the situation. Patience I hear after all, is a virtue. So to answer your question, the difference between us on the outside and those on the inside is time. Given more time to think through what you had done, would you still have done it?

XOXO, Sissy

That was beautiful! I loved the poem! It was deep and a little haunting, with just the right amount of sadness. Seriously, that was really good... make sure you save that one for sure, we can compile a book when you get out. :)

XOXO, Sissy
