Eye-popping tricks Here’s a question for you: what can you do with your eyes? As one dictionary puts it, they can “work with our brains to tell us the size, shape, color, and texture of an object.” But strongman Andrew Stanton uses his “headlights” for a couple of eyepopping tricks. He won two Guinness World Records recently: one for hooking large metal hooks to his eye sockets to pull a car weighing more than 5,000 pounds and another for using the same eye socket hooks to lift his 129.63-pound assistant while at the same time swallowing a sword.

Please Help the Harris Family

Body
As most of you know, my daughter & her husband were in a horrific wreck last August which left her husband a paraplegic and my daughter disabled. The disability still has not kicked in and needless to say they are really struggling as he is being cared for at home. They have 3 children who will need school clothes and supplies very soon, and there is a dire need for a new mattress that will help turn him on a regular basis. At this time, they have absolutely ZERO income and neither are able to work. With mounting bills and 5 mouths to feed, medical care, house payments, utilities, and food, they have reached the end of their rope. Previously donated funds have been depleted.

At most water parks, there are also one or two spots where large buckets hang overhead filling little by little with water. The closer the bucket gets to being full, the larger the crowd grows beneath in anticipation—children and adults alike wait for the outpouring.
