The Continued Importance of Stuffed Toys
April 23rd, 2009Some people may be under the false impression that, since plush animals are not the hot toy of the month, that they are no longer relevant. Maybe you have considered getting a stuffed toy as a gift for a friend or relative, but decided on something else because you thought that the stuffed animal wasn’t practical, or that the recipient had outgrown them. Why should you select a plush animal as a gift?
There are many good reasons to choose a plush toy as a present. They can be comforting, meaningful, and symbolic of the important relationships and events of a person’s life. Maybe you need to be reminded of why they are such classic and timeless gifts, and appropriate for all ages and personality types. Here’s why they are important to three age groups: children, teenagers, and adults.
Importance to Children
A child can never have too many stuffed animals. Plush toys come in an incredible number of varieties and kids love collecting the different types. They could always find room for a few more. The stuffed animal is a wonderful symbol of the innocence of childhood. They are soft, cuddly, and lovable. Just remember the story of The Velveteen Rabbit. Each of us probably has fond memories from childhood of our favorite plush toy. They are great for bedtime, and a comforted child is less likely to have bad dreams, or will forget their nightmares more quickly with the security of their stuffed friend.
The people who think that the stuffed animal is not the hot toy haven’t been keeping up with how little girls are accessorizing these days. The plushie is a current fashion among girls who use them to emulate celebrities by carrying a small, natural-looking plush dog or cat in their tiny purses (or backpacks.) Plush toys are still very much in vogue!
Importance to Teenagers
You may think that teenagers are too old for toys, but many of them would disagree. Besides, stuffed animals are more than just a toy. They can be as comforting to a teenager as to a child, as well as a great decoration for a bedroom or dorm. Many teenage girls collect stuffed toys, not only from their childhood, but from more recent years, as well. A good plush animal can be a memento or keepsake. Many girls have a favorite plush toy given to them by a boyfriend because he knew her favorite animal. If she is crazy about horses, maybe he gave her a plush horse. Or maybe she is attached to the stuffed bear that her father gave her for her college dorm room or first apartment.
Teenage boys can enjoy a quality plush animal as much as girls. They can serve as a reminder of a great accomplishment, such as that stuffed tiger or lion that they received after winning the big game. A plush toy that matches their sports mascot is always a great gift. Or maybe they have a stuffed bear that they won at the fair by pitching softballs or shooting water guns. Teenage boys can relate to such animals as a souvenir of their prowess and accomplishments.
Importance to Adults
Finally, plush animals are also appropriate for most adults, though for somewhat different reasons. Many adults use stuffed animals as decorative items around the house. The best animals for adults are natural-looking, realistically colored plush figures. They can add the same personal touch to a d?cor that a figurine or other piece of art would. For instance, a stuffed dolphin or whale can liven up a vacation home at the beach. A vacation cabin in the mountains can be decorated with a mountain lion or black bear. Dog lovers can display a Cocker Spaniel, Collie, or Golden Retriever in plush form to help them relax at home. Adults love to collect things, and a stuffed animal collection can be quite rewarding. Not only can plush animals be decorative, they can also be nostalgic. Quite a few adults still have and display a plush toy from many years ago due to its value as a keepsake of years past. My mother still displays the plush cat that my father gave her when they were dating.
Stuffed animals will never go out of style and are popular with all age groups. They are important and symbolic on numerous levels. They make great gifts and can carry many meanings!

You Don’t Own Your House!
April 21st, 2009“That’s true, the Bank does” I hear you say. The fact is that even if it has been paid off it does not belong to you. All you bought was the “Right to Use”.
When you signed the papers for the Land Registry you signed over the house to the State! And unless you pay all your taxes and comply with a myriad of Statues dictating how to look after it, they will come after you and might even take it away from you if you are not coughing up.
This is also true for you Car, your Children and even your own Body. You or your parents have at some time signed away the title to these things to the state.
You signed your children over to the state when you signed the Birth Certificate, or some other Registration paper shortly after their birth. That is why the state can take them away if they think you are an unfit parent or you do not look after them the way the state think they should be looked after and raised.
And the worst part of it is that they tricked you into doing this Voluntarily. They made it seem mandatory, but there is no law requiring you to sign anything. They use a foreign language to do this. One that appears to be English, but is not: Legalese! This language has definitions that are vastly different from the ones used in common English.
For example, the word “Must” can mean “May” in legalese. So if it says you must sign, it means you may sign.
The truth is that the World we are presented with – and the actual World of what really is going on are two different things. But since the Government controls the media trough licensing and the schools trough the Department of Education, we have been raised to believe things are a certain way. This conditioning can be quite deep. But are we told the truth? That is for You to decide.
Another example where we have been grossly deceived is on the subject of Money. Did you learn in school how the money system actually works? Where does the astronomical amounts that our Governments borrow from National and International banks come from? Where do the money that you borrow for your mortgage and Credit Cards come from?
The truth is stranger than fiction.
What happens is that when you apply for a loan, this application is then converted to an IOU (I Owe You) / Negotiable Instrument, which in the eyes of all parties involved (except you – you ignorant fool) has the value of the sum written on it. So the bank takes your application and enter it into its accounting ledgers as a deposit, or sells it for the stated value and enters the value received into it’s accounting as a deposit.
Now the Bank actually owes you money.
To balance it’s books the Bank or Card Company now releases credit (that came out of thin air) into your account, to the stated value. Now the books of the bank are balanced. No one owes anyone anything. But they do not inform us about this, if this became public knowledge the whole scam would fold – who would like to repay money they actually created themselves??
Lucky for us, there are some people who have invested a lot of time in understanding the laws and the legal system, so as to give us a way out of this trap and stand up for our natural rights. If you follow my link you will be introduced to such a group.
I can understand if a lot of this seems totally unreal or weird. That is because we have been raised by the Government and Educated by the Government and entertained and informed by Government licensed Media. This has been going on for a very long time. It is time we found out the truth.
“In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.” George Orwell
If you follow the link in this article you will soon be able to download two books. One explains in full how the money system really works and how it ought to be. The other one is about one woman’s journey from the despair of debt to unimagined freedom, where she pays no tax, drives an unregistered car lawfully and uses a secret account the Government has created for each one of us to set off charges against her, etc. She gives a lot of invaluable advice, and it is yours for free.
I hope you will take this invitation to find out more and start walking down the path that leads to Freedom.
Kind Regards

In this he came across solutions to what ordinary people can do to claim their rights and fight back. We are all equal before the law. And in the law will be the answers. He has tested this method and has seen friends do it too. It does work. Learn the Truth
