I also have a blog on myspace ,and I got a bulletin from a friend of mine saying that a five year old had died of a heroin overdose,as I kept reading I was amazed.The mother had carried the child to a restaurant to eat and afterwards let him go play in the ballpit,he felt a sharp pain ,but his mother could not find anything wrong.She got him home and in the bath and noticed a red welt on his hip.After he got real sick and went to the E.R ,he died ,it was discovered that a syringe was found in the ball pit where a heroin addict had put it.Upon further investigation there was vomit ,feces,and several day old food found in the play area,people ,please clean this things up our kids play in them.On the East coast it has been reported that people are taking h.i.v infected razor blades and other sharp objects and attaching them to the inside of gas pumps in order that people who grab them will be cut.In a old song by Anne Murray "we sure could use a little good news today"Dog fighting people forgetting their children in cars .pediophiles among all the rape ,,and normal crime we have .I heard a case recently where a full grown man raped a 18 month old baby ,give me a break.Oh to be able to live in Mayberry where your only problem was a town drunk and even he turned himself in to the law.The bible says as in the time of Noah the coming of the Son of Man will be.In the days of Noah evil was on the heart and in the mind of the people continously,whatever evil they could think of they did it sounds like today's generation.The flood took them out fire and brimstone will this time.Wake up people ,love your fellow man ,if you can't leave him alone.Be Blessed!
The syringe thing, like 99.9 percent of these stories that get passed around the Internet, is completely bogus. I'm particularly familiar with that one, which has been going around for at least a decade, because at one point, the version that was being passed around said it happened in "Midland, Tennessee." Of course, Midland is a wide spot in the road without any fast food restaurants, but people from out of town searching for information would identify the T-G as one of the nearby newspapers and e-mail us asking about it and where they could read the story. (It never occurred to them that there was no story.)
I've written about this several times in the newspaper, although it's been a few years since the last story.

Hey Devan and Parkerbrothers,
This one is over 6 months old... But it just proves that Michael cuts and pastes pure hysteria before ever consulting the entire and/or true story.
Then, low and behold he runs off and starts ANOTHER blog, with about the same stuff. What, at all, has this accomplished? Honestly... Nothing, but bitter differences and anomosity. I can assure you Jesus is highly unsatisfied with the spreading of falsities as truth, over and over again, and yet claims to be "covered by the blood." Doubt it.

I had rather someone be on the overcautious side as to be on the overly lax side when it comes to safety and health issues.
Also notice he was apologetic and pledged to check things out better in the future of which it appears he now does.
At least give him credit for the concern of people he has. A little of the same concern would not hurt any of us.
