in<BR>the "Singing Revolution" where hundreds<BR>of thousands of Lithuanians,

<DIV class=PreformattedText><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><FONT size=4>A few
years ago Nori Carlson of Sacramento opened a business she calls Revenge
Unlimited. Her reason for being in business, she says, is to help you
treat others as they have treated you--kind of a revision of the Golden
Rule. For a fee of $35 to $50 she delivers wilted flowers wrapped in dirty
newspaper, deflated balloons and year-old party favors to someone you want to
put down. She delivers cheap wine and a personalized "revenge-O-gram" poem
intended to shame the recipient. "There are people who deliver flowers for
Mother's Day or Valentines Day to show love or romance or respect or
acknowledgement," she says, "but we are selling revenge. We're about
getting even."</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

angry that he pulled over and waited for me to get along side him so he could
give me some more of what was on his mind. He would have been interested
in an adult toy I read about called the Revenger. The Revenger offers
frustrated drivers a way to vent their feelings whenever another driver offends
them. At the flip of a switch it blasts the sound of a grenade launcher,
machine gun, and death ray at the offending party. The president of the
company says that demand for the product has been overwhelming.

Ziglar tells of a small boy on his way home from school who was confronted by
three bullies, any one of whom could have beaten him up, and that seemed to be
their intention. The boy wasn't too well qualified to fight, so he did
some quick thinking. He backed up dramatically, drew a line in the dirt
with his shoe, looked the leader of the group in the eye, and said, "Now you
just step across that line." The big bully confidently stepped across the
line. The small boy smiled broadly and exclaimed, "Now we're on the same
side!" Ziglar doesn't tell whether it worked, but it was the kind of
creative approach to hostility that Jesus would have
praised.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
