Referendum or not, the time of the British monarch is coming to a close.I don't want it, but it is inevitable.The money for India is a drop in the ocean for a nation of over 1 billion people. I saw part of a programme last night about Zimbabwe.The jounalist, John Simpson went to a restaurant to eat with a friend.The cost of the meal was 250,000,000 Zimbabwe dollars. The tip was 10,000,000.Aren't you glad for Jesus?God bless.

A brother had sent me a few months ago, yahoo-news article about Tony Blair wanted by Europe to be The President of Europe come 1/09.Last nite they announced it on the BBC World Service radio that this is so.He is yet to make a public acceptance.Said that Mr. Brown desires this also.They said he would then be called, "Mr. Europe".
