let's hope that each of us has Good Luck this Year, courtesy of the Irish.           Irish   Luck - Remember to  send it  back! I want  this back. It  DOES  work. His  name was Fleming, and  he  was a poor  Scottish farmer.  One day, while  trying to  make a living for  his family, he  heard  a cry for help coming from a nearby boy.  He dropped his tools and ran to the boy. There, mired to his waist in  black  muck, was a  terrified boy, screaming and  struggling  to  free himself.  Farmer Fleming  saved  the lad from what could have been  a  slow and  terrifying death. The next  day, a  fancy  carriage pulled up to the Scotsman's sparse surroundings.  An   elegantly  dressed nobleman stepped out and  introduced  himself as  the father of  the boy Farmer Fleming  had saved. 'I want to repay you,' said  the nobleman. 'You saved my son's life.' 'No,  I can't accept  payment  for what I  did,' the Scottish farmer  replied waving  off the offer.  At that moment,  the  farmer's own son came to the door of the family  hovel. 'Is that your son?' the nobleman asked. 'Yes,' the  farmer replied proudly. 'I'll make you a deal. Let me provide him with the level of education my own son will enjoy If the lad is anything like his  father, he'll no doubt grow to be a man we both will be proud of.'  And that he did. Farmer Fleming's son  attended the very best schools and in time, graduated from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in London,  and went on to become known  throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming,  the discoverer of Penicillin. Years  afterward,  the same nobleman's son  who was saved from the bog was stricken  with  pneumonia. What  saved  his life this  time?   Penicillin. The name of the  nobleman?   Lord Randolph Churchill ..  His son's name? Sir Winston Churchill. Someone once said:  What  goes  around comes  around. Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching. Sing like nobody's listening. Live like it's Heaven on Earth.
