- Tummy Ache
A mother took her daughter to the doctor and asked him to give her an examination to determine
the cause of her daughters swollen abdomen. It only took the doctor about 2 seconds to say
"Your daughter is pregnant." The mother turned red with fury and she argued with the doctor
that her daughter was a good girl and would never compromise her reputation by having sex
with a boy. The doctor faced the window and silently watched the horizon. The mother became
enraged and screamed, "Quit looking out the window! Aren't you paying attention to me?"
"Yes, of course I am paying attention ma'am. It's just that the last time this happened, a star
appeared in the East, and three wise men came. And I was hoping that they would show up again.

GREAT HOLIDAY READING
Folks, here are some great books to read, while sitting by that warm fire in the evening........
The Remnant: On the Brink of Armageddon: by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins
This is the 10th book in the best-selling series, Left Behind. This series is about the fictional
account of the end times of our world.
The Great Tribulation unfolds as the forces of evil and the armies of God prepare for mankind's
ultimate battle. Millions of Christians are protected by God as the anger of the Antichrist,
Nicolae Carpathia, burns against them.
The Earth, now a wasted shell of its former beauty, staggers under the weight of worsening
judgments from heaven, while Carpathia turns up the heat on Christ followers and anyone
else who does not swear total allegiance with him.
All pretense is gone, even on the part of the Antichrist, as the planet hurtles toward
Armageddon and the ultimate showdown between good and evil.
Rocky Mountain Christmas: Yuletide Stories of the West
by John H. Monnett
By evening everyone present agreed that the Christmas festivities were "the greatest known to that date"
in the entire Taos region and Kit Carson was "chief over it all." For the first time in recent memory,
different races and Indian tribes had "ate, drank and smoked together." The last toast of the evening was
one pledging "fraternal peace" among the races in the Taos Valley. (From the book) Even under the
most extreme conditions our pioneer ancestors kept the festive holiday spirit alive in their hearts and
frontier homes. From Lewis and Clark's first Christmas in the Rockies to the generous gift that changed
a widow's and her children's lives, this book shares celebrations of the Yuletide season.
[From The Editors Desk]...

America~A Bygone Era: Militaria
Rogers Rangers
Among the colonial recruits raised for the British army in the year 1755, after the devastating defeat of Gen. Braddock,
was Capt. Robert Rogers. It is thought that Rogers was raised on the frontiers of New England. When the recruits
assembled at Albany, New York, Gen. William Johnson, knowing Rogers by reputation, employed him from time
to time on important scouts. Roger's head-quarters were at Ft. William Henry, a new fort erected at the southern
extremity of Lake George.
Taking a few men, Rogers would depart by night, float up the lake to a convenient place, hide the canoe,
and push on overland through the forest, penetrating the the sentry lines of the enemy. At Crown Point,
one of the French forts, his men, under cover of night, concealed themselves in the willows only three
hundred yards from the fort. At dawn, Rogers, holding some brush as cover, crawled closer. While
making his reconnaissance, numbers of French soldiers and Indians came out of the fort and began
exercises (drill). Rogers was now unable to rejoin his men for fear of discovery. As Rogers lay hidden
behind a log, a Frenchman walked directly toward him. Rogers sprang at him pointing his musket and
offering quarter! The stranger then pulled a knife, and lunged, Rogers fired, killing him. The report of the musket
instantly gave the alarm. By the time the French arrived at the spot of the deed, Rogers and his men had made their excape.

Good Humor Man....REMEMBER THIS AT CHRISTMAS TIME....
By Carl Pastuszynski, Garfield Hts., Ohio
According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both the male
and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop
their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December.
Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring. Therefore,
according to EVERY historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, EVERY single
one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl. We should've known. ONLY women would be able to drag
a fat-ass man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost!

The Ski Lodge: Durango Mountain Resort: SKI PURGATORY
Durango, Colorado
Durango Mountain Resort embodies the reasons why so many people
consider this part of Colorado unique. The views of the San Juan Mountains
are breathtaking from any vantage, and repeatedly change and surprise with
each trip down the ski hill, each hike through the forest, each roll along the ridge on a bike.
Our resort is a mountain community itself, a small and unique extension of Durango.
Here anyone can find entertainment, adrenalin, or solitude in the mountains.
Whether a student escaping for the weekend, a grizzled local skiing a favorite run,
or a visitor taking a first look at an alpine slide or world class mountain bike race,
Durango Mountain Resort has a bit of the Golden Country for everyone.
In 1965 the ski area was built along Purgatory Creek - a witty old-timer from the late
1800's had named the brook, which feeds into the Rio de las Animas Perdidas,
or "River of lost Souls". The burgeoning ski area adopted the Purgatory name,
and you'll notice that trail crews have continued the legacy. Now with 11 lifts,
including the Purgatory Village Express Six-Pack, 1200 skiable acres, and 2029
vertical feet, plus a whopping 35,000 backcountry acres accessible through San Juan
Snowcats, Purgatory Mountain has something for everyone.

Outdoor Tip: Series on High Altitudes
Prevention of Altitude Illnesses
Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)
AMS is common at high altitudes. At elevations over 10,000 feet (3,048 meters),
75% of people will have mild symptoms. The occurrence of AMS is dependent
upon the elevation, the rate of ascent, and individual susceptibility. Many people
will experience mild AMS during the acclimatization process. Symptoms usually
start 12-24 hours after arrival at altitude and begin to decrease in severity about
the third day. The symptoms of Mild AMS are headache, dizziness, fatigue,
shortness of breath, loss of appetite, nausea, disturbed sleep, and a general feeling
of malaise. Symptoms tend to be worse at night and when respiratory drive is
decreased. Mild AMS does not interfere with normal activity and symptoms
generally subside within 2-4 days as the body acclimatizes. As long as symptoms
are mild, and only a nuisance, ascent can continue at a moderate rate.
When hiking, it is essential that you communicate any symptoms of illness
immediately to others on your trip. AMS is considered to be a neurological
problem caused by changes in the central nervous system. It is basically a mild
form of High Altitude Cerebral Edema (see next issue).

BIN LADEN AND BUSH...
SERVE THE SAME MASTER
By: Henry Makow
The headquarters of Islamic terrorism is London England, where the Anglo-American Establishment sponsors the
radical "Muslim Brotherhood" in order to advance its long-term goal of plutocratic global dictatorship.
These globalists have fabricated a bogus "war on terror" to crush the remaining vestiges of nationalism and democracy
in both Muslim countries and the West. Expect more incitements like the current "Miss World " imbroglio to convince
both sides the other endangers its way of life.
In a comprehensive online report, the perceptive Hawaii-based researcher Peter Goodgame concludes: "Osama bin Laden is not,
nor has he ever been, the leader of the international Islamist movement which is directed by the International Muslim Brotherhood."
Goodgame continues: "Osama bin Laden has been used effectively as a figurehead for the Brotherhood's militant branch to take
responsibility for its atrocities, but he is not the mastermind… By the same token, the Muslim Brotherhood is a tool by the
British-based Globalists whose main objective is to overthrow the established world order and create a new one-world system
of global governance."

How to defeat the plot of the Illuminati: Part 5
A Luciferian conspiracy
"The psychological moment"
Douglas predicted that the present debt-money system of the Bankers would become unworkable and fall by itself,
because of all of the unpayable debts it creates. All the countries in the world are struggling with skyrocketing debts
and heading for disaster, even though everybody knows these debts can never be paid off. Other factors announce the
inevitable fall of the present system: automation, which makes full employment impossible, the fall of the U.S. dollar in
comparison with the Japanese yen, etc.
Douglas said that "a psychological moment" will come, a critical moment when the population, given the gravity of the
situation, and despite all the power of the Financiers, will have suffered their debt-money system long enough, and will
be disposed to study and accept Social Credit. Douglas wrote the following in 1924, in his book Social Credit:
«The position will be tremendous in its importance. A comparatively short period will probably serve to decide whether we
are to master the mighty economic and social machine that we have created, or whether it is to master us; and during that
period a small impetus from a body of men who know what to do and how to do it, may make the difference between yet one
more retreat into the Dark Ages, or the emergence into the full light of a day of such splendour as we can at present only
envisage dimly. It is this necessity for the recognition of the psychological moment, and the fitting to that moment of
appropriate action, which should be present in the minds of that small minority which is seized of the gravity of the present times.»
Louis Even, at the end of his article quoted above ("Social Credit, yes - Party, no"), repeats this idea of Douglas:
«The Social Crediters of the "Michael" Journal maintain, along with Douglas, that as regards Social Credit, the most
effective work to do is to enlighten the population on the monpoly of financial credit, attributing to it the bad fruits of
which it is the cause in the lives of people, of families, of institutions; and, in front of these bad fruits, to expose the
doctrine of genuine Social Credit, which is so brilliant and in keeping with common sense. They also endeavor to develop
within themselves, and to also radiate, a Social Credit spirit, Which is clearly in keeping with the spiret of the Gospel: a
spirit of service and not of domination, not of an insatiable pursuit of money or material goods, which is of the same
nature - with a less powerful means - as the spirit of the barons of High Finance.
«Whether the collapse of the present financial system, under the weight of its own enormities, or events that have been
foretold many times by privileged souls - events one certainly cannot doubt of when one sees the present decadence of
moral standards, apostasy, the paganization of affluent nations that used to be Christian - occur soon, in either case, the
living or the survivors of those events won't be without a light to establish a social economic system worthy of its name.»
The message is therefore clear: let us continue to get new subscribers to the "Michale" Journal to inform everybody of the
gravity of the situation.

LOTT'S WORDS WERE WRONG
BUT THEIR MEANING WAS RIGHT
By: Jim Moore
Who ever thought a man of Senator Trent Lott's experience would, with a slip of the lip, tumble headlong into the
racial pit. But he did. And now the pundits will banter for days with Amens or Tsk Tsks about his remarks.
For people who have been comatose during this episode, Lott bloodied himself at Senator Strom Thurmond's
100th birthday party. Thurmond ran for president in 1948 on a state's rights, anti-integration ticket. Recalling
that event, Lott blurted out, "We're proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't
have had all these problems over all these years, either."
Lott goofed. He should have known that remarks with racial overtones would rattle the cage of such sub-luminaries
as Jesse Jackson, who invited Lott to resign.
Even Gore picked up the whip: "It is no small thing for one of the half-dozen most prominent political leaders in
America to say that our problems are caused by integration and that we should have had a segregationist candidate.
That is divisive, and it is divisive along racial lines."

PEOPLE DYING IN ZIMBABWE
THE WAR ON WHITES INTENSIFIES
By: Jan Lamprecht
Oprah Winfrey is in South Africa, schmoozing with Nelson Mandela. She is clearly dishing out large amounts
of money for various projects which Mandela has talked her in to and which she believes will help South Africa.
There are plans for a big party on Robben Island and various celebrities including Naomi Campbell and various
Rock stars will be involved. I couldn't help but chuckle at a speech given by Bishop Tutu. He said "We beat Apartheid,
and we will beat AIDS!" Such is the wishful thinking of people over here with regard to AIDS. But let us not dwell on
AIDS because unless medical science comes up with something, AIDS will run its devastating course and all the
rhetoric in the world will not change a thing.
Read please......

TIPS FOR MEN ~ WOMEN and BABIES |
GUYS: Guy Guide To Smelling Good
Want to wear a little history on your next date? Then pick
up a bottle of 4711 eu de cologne. This scent is the oldest
continuously manufactured men's cologne, bottled originally
in 1792 at the Cologne, Germany design house of Frederich
Muehlens from a recipe Muehlens was given as a wedding
present by a local monk. The cologne is bottled today using
the same ingredients: sandalwood oil from India, attar of
roses from Bulgaria and vetiver oil from Haiti.
Tell that story to your girl and see what it gets you.
NOTE: Always Check with and follow the advice of your Physician!
GALS: Feeling Your Baby Kick
While an ultrasound can easily identify fetal movement as early as
seven to eight weeks, women generally don't begin to feel the baby
move until sometime between the 16th and 20th weeks. Remember, the
initial sensations you'll notice aren't real kicks -- instead, some
women describe the feeling as being like "popcorn popping" or
"butterflies in the stomach." And also remember that during your first
and second trimesters, you'll feel these sensations only every once in
a while.
Your baby's activity level reaches its peak between 28 and 32 weeks,
then decreases gradually until birth. You'll begin to discern a
pattern to your baby's movement, and you'll know when something's
amiss. If she's not moving as often as she usually does, your baby may
be in distress. Call your healthcare provider if you're really
worried.
NOTE: Always Check with and follow the advice of your Physician!
- Son races in the house and heads for Dad's study.
"Dad! Dad! I got a part in the school play!"
"That's great, Tommy. What part did you get?
"Dad, I play the part of a man who's been married for twenty years."
"That's great, Tommy. Keep up the good work. Maybe
next time you'll get a speaking part."
BEAUTY: Quick Hair Fix
Want to look your best but don't have time to do your hair
in the morning? Here's a little tip for setting up a "good
hair day." First, wet your hair during your morning shower
and dry with an absorbent towel. (I recommend a good five
minutes of strong circular movements.) While your hair is
still damp, spray on a soft-setting lotion or vitamin hair
lotion. (Avoid those sticky, hard, alcohol-based lotions.)
Now go back to toweling your hair, until you have a fuller,
dryer look. Style your hair with your fingers and let your
locks dry naturally while you get ready. Et voila! Easy to
manage, healthy-looking hair that looks like a professional
prepped it!

TIP: Glazing
Brushing foods with products like marmalades or jellies is
a simple way to add flavor during the last few minutes of
broiling. Chicken and pork are especially good when paired
with fruit glazes. Preserves and maple syrup can also help
create interesting new flavors. Remember that these
products have high sugar content and can quickly burn. Try
pork with red currant jelly, jalapeno jelly or orange
marmalade. Chicken goes well with apricot jelly or lemon
marmalade.

Cooking Websites: Recipes
Although it might be premature to call anything on the web
"classic", there are several sites I keep returning to over
the years. Epicurious (epicurious.com) has excellent
feature articles plus the Bon Appetit and Gourmet recipe
archives. The Food Network site (foodtv.com ) is a great
page, especially when used with the television shows.
Recipe Source (recipesource.com) is the best site to find
many versions of the same recipe.
If you have a favorite recipe or a great cooking website, and you'd like to share it with our readers, you can send it to The MountainGnome.

A RECIPE FOR CHRISTMAS
Take a quart of joy and gladness --
A pack of folk and kin -- A dash of Christmas spirit -- And toss some laughter in.
Take a large amount of giving -- And spread it generously;
Read directions in the Good Book -- And apply them carefully.
Garnish well with human kindness, On crystal leaves of cheer,
And you'll have a batch of Christmas -- To last the coming year.
