End of May Stuff

It's been a craz-zazy month for us.

We've been working on our car and winding down the school year with the kids.

Speaking of kids, did you hear about "The Worst Vaccine Bill Ever" that is pending in the New York State Assembly? This is just over the top nuts. In part, it "would see all vaccines recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) made mandatory for all children, including infants and toddlers".

• Elected New York representatives would no longer determine the mandatory schedule of vaccines to attend school; decisions made by the federal Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices would automatically become mandatory.


• All children, infants and toddlers included, in New York would be required to get all vaccines recommended by the ACIP according to the ACIP schedule


• All children in New York up to age 18 would be required to get annual flu shots.


• All girls in New York would be required to get a human papilloma virus shot.


• All junior high school children and college students would be required to get meningococcal shots.


• Doctors would be required to issue certificates for every shot given and parents would be required to maintain the records and provide them to school and other authorities.


• The rules committee claims that the new laws would have no fiscal impact on the state despite the necessity of the state to spend tens of millions on purchasing new vaccines, a vast increase in mandatory record keeping and enforcement for schools, and a huge increase that could be expected in the number of cases of neurological damage, Guillian Barré syndrome and other vaccine-caused injuries.

Does that bother you?

I've been watching the political process unfold in my country with a sad heart. I never thought I'd be in a position where I couldn't find anyone I wanted to vote for.
Who are you voting for? Why? Drop me a line and let me know or comment here - either or is fine.

Also, we've been tweaking out our PLR - we changed it to be even more economical and also added some good bells and whistles for you. It will be like no other PLR service out there today.

Our book, "Write All the Way to the Bank" is selling well and the feedback has been great.

I heard from a lovely lady that has used my methods and started her own writing company. She asked I not use her name because she's afraid some of her clients may be upset if they knew exactly who her writers were.
So I'll call her Claire.
Claire had a sister that was in her 40's and into crack and was constantly in trouble. She took her sister in and taught her to find jobs online and write. Turns out it was her sister's dream to write and she even got a gig writing a support blog for people in recovery - something she has first-hand knowledge of
.
Through her sister, Claire met a couple that run a halfway house for women who really want to stay straight and NOT wind up back using drugs.

Claire has been using women that have been through (sometimes) jail and (always) drug rehab and want to earn money but having a felony conviction or even multiple dings on one's criminal history for drug related offenses can be a real hindrance to making a living. Through carefully talking to and taking it slow she's gotten a good group of ladies together that want to reclaim their lives, their families, their kids and their self-esteem.

Claire wrote me that she's taking on 2-3 women at a time that feel they want to try writing and then showing them the basics. If they pass through a month of daily writing and grasp the ability to work online, she then provides them with their own laptop and gives them assignments. She said it's so wonderful because these women get a real commitment to staying straight because they have pride in themselves, they are WRITERS. So far so good - I look forward to an update in the future.

Well, May is coming to a fast close - I'll be back to posting more often in June after the PLR launch.

See you then!
