October 26, 2003 journal, Sam Mockbee art show in Birmingham Art Museum on CBS Sunday Morning. My mother is laid to rest today as the 23rd. Psalm was recited and a recording of bagpipes played in the rain. I believe her spirit lives and is with God up in heaven. My mother was the best mother on earth. I loved her with all of my heart and I appreciate her faithfulness through the years as she served her family so very very well.

Many people say to rejoice that she is in heaven but to me it is a time of severe grieving. It is not a time of celebration. I thank God for all the years she was with us and for all these years I was with her. I have no complaint, she always make is better and did right. Let us hire mourners as they did in Bible days. I want so much to cry. Madame Chiang Kai-shek is dead at 105 in New York City where she lived since her husband died 30 years ago being president of Taiwan after escaping from China in the early 50s and Mao Tse-tung's communist regime. Since then China has been recognized in the trading world by all of the so-called "free world". We were on the JAL flight to Taipei the day Japan broke relations with Taiwan in favor of mainland China and we got a cold shoulder when we arrived at the Taipei International Airport early that morning. Madame Chiang Kai-shek span three centuries in her life. She owned the Taipei Grand Hotel that recently burned on a hill overlooking the regional airport where we stayed many times. The war on pharmaceutical products is stepping up to go buy medicine in Canada at half the price or less than buying in America. The pharmacy accompanies are jacking up the price to American druggist, Canada controls what they can charge. We have connected pharmacy to idolatry in our painting of Idolatry that confronts the church with its idolatry. The buses are running full blast across that border and bringing back tons of medicines prescribed by doctors even with all of its side effects. We are in a chemical dependent world and the pharmacy factories are going to keep us set in this way until we all die. Eli Lilly has reportedly blocked delivery of their products to Canadian Pharmacies. The money hungry prescription pharmacy makers including the vaccine makers are out to get your money even if it could put you in a grave were in they have victory temporarily. One excuse for the high prices reported was "because they had to sell other countries cheaper". Then that means that we are individually subsidizing other people's pharmacy. If people would eat right I believe they would not need medicine. Food is medicine and much better than medicine to keep us well and not sick as the nation is sick today. I did not know until this week about Lipitor or that it reacts to citrus grapefruit in a negative way. This is another example of how the modern medical world substitutes expensive pharmaceuticals for the natural consumption of God made healthy foods. They prescribe Lipitor to control high cholesterol and let a person eat foods that cause high cholesterol. This is as stupid as the Atkins Diet recommending eating beef to lose weight which is said to dehydrate the body cells and place one's life in jeopardy of losing an organ or more. We are being manipulated by a capitalistic system that worships money and fails to regard life, especially your life and my life as being of any value. The monument of money has far reaching tentacles and chemicals that control our mind and body along with our longevity and including our money. It is not our money but the devil's money via the government.

60 minutes showed the nuclear storage site under Yucca Mountain in Nevada and what a hazard it is as the mayor of Las Vegas bands the transportation of nuclear waste through his city. The alternative is to ship it to the Savannah River nuclear waste dump near Akin South Carolina and continue to endanger the lives of the residence already high in cancer.
