Guest guest Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 Sitting by the window of her convent, Sister Barbara opened a letter from home one evening. Inside the letter was a $100 bill her parents had sent. Sister Barbara smiled at the gesture. As she read the letter by the window, she noticed a shabbily dressed stranger leaning against the lamp post below. Quickly, she wrote, " Don't despair. Sister Barbara, " on a piece of paper, wrapped the $100 bill in it, got the man's attention and tossed it out the window to him. The stranger picked it up, and with a puzzled expression and a tip of his hat, went off down the street. The next day, Sister Barbara was told that a man was at her door, insisting on seeing her. She went down, and found the stranger waiting. Without a word, he handed her a huge wad of $100 bills. " What's this? " she asked. " That's the $8,000 you have coming Sister, " he replied. " Don't Despair paid 80-to-1. " Marilyn Moderator for ~ Diabetic_Recipes Any advice or recipe found here should be passed by your dietician or physician, to see that it is right for you.
