Who says investments are boring business? Timberland investment offers vast opprotunity for R.O.I., return on investment, as timber is the number one industry in the state of Alabama. This property is an excellent timber tract with a well-established stand of 8-9 year old Pine Plantations located in western Pike County on a low traffic county road just off state Highway 10 in the Wingard area.   A good interior road system runs throughout the property creating good access to all wildlife food plots and hunting areas.   This is a good hunting area with many signs of wildlife on the property.     This tract is predominantly Pine Plantations with hardwood and 30 acres of 17-18 year old hardwood regeneration.  The price has recently been reduced to $1795.00 per acre and the sellers are ver...

I found this interesting articile in Business Week MagazineDon't count on it, with profits strong and inventories down, capital spending should rally US Economy as 2007 began, everyone was worried about consumers: How would their spending hold up as the housing slump wore on? Well, consumer outlays turned out to be the economy's star performer in the first quarter, with inflation-adjusted spending growing a healthy 3.8%, measured at an annual rate. Now in the wake of some puny0looking numbers on capital spending, economic anxiety has turned to the business sector. The question there: Will a cooler economy, rising labor costs, and a pileup of inventories cause operations to slam the brakes on their plans to expand operations and hire more workers?Clearly, the risks surrounding the outloo...

My wife left me... And I don't understand.After the last child was born, she told me we had to cut back on expences- I had to give up drinking beer.I was not a big drinker, maybe a 12-pack on weekends.Anyway, I gave it up but I noticed the other day when she came home from grocery shopping, the reciept included $45 for makeup.I said "Wait a minute I've given up beer and you haven't given up anything!"She said, "I buy that makeup for you, so I can look pretty for you."I told her, "Heck, that's what the beer was for!"I don't think she'll be back

Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things.The people who started university this year across the nation were born in 1985. They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.Thier lifetime has always included AIDS.Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic.The CD was introduced the year they were born.They have always had an answering machine, They have always had cable.They cannot fathom not having a remote control.Jay Leno has laways been on the tonight show.Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.They never took a swim and thought about Jaws.They don't know who Mork was or where he was from.

It is easier to preach ten sermons than it is to live by one. When you get to wit's end, you'll find God lives there People are funny; they want the front of the bus, the middle of the road, and the back of the church. Opportunity may knock once, but temptation Bangs on your front door forever. Quit griping about your Church: If it was perfect, you couldn't belong Some minds are like concrete Thoroughly mixed up and permanently set. Peace starts with a smile. Forbidden fruits create many jams. God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called. He who angers you, controls you!

 Pike County is located in the southeastern section of the state, in the coastal plain or "Wiregrass" area. It encompasses 672 square miles. A teacher's training college, Troy normal School, was established in 1887. Today it exists as the prestigious Troy University. Other towns in the county include Brundidge, Spring Hill and Henderson. The town of Troy is quickly growing but still has that down home feeling, there are still several beautiful lots to choose from, and when I say lots I do not mean ¼ acre. Imagine one, five or even 100 acres. Some people consider it peace and quite, I call it Paradise!! Pike county borders many great towns, and counties that all offer their own unique mountain beauty and country flair.  Please contact me for detailed information and map locations.

 The trouble with so many of us is that we underestimate the power of simplicity. We have a tendency it seems to over complicate our lives and forget what's important and what's not. We tend to mistake movement for achievement. We tend to focus on activities instead of results. And as the pace of life continues to race along in the outside world, we forget that we have the power to control our lives regardless of what's going on outside Take a moment to look around and give thanks!

GOD KNOWS THE SCOREby Helen Steiner Rice Have you ever been caught in a web you didn't weave,Involved in conditions that are hard to believe?Have you felt you must speak and explain or denyA story that's groundless or a small, whispered lie?Have you ever heard rumors you would like to refuteOr some telltale gossip you would like to dispute?Well, don't be upset for God knows the scoreAnd with God as your judge you need worry no more,For men may misjudge you but God's verdict is fairFor He looks deep inside and He is clearly awareOf every small detail in your pattern of livingAnd always He's lenient and fair and forgiving--And knowing that God is your judge and your juryFrees you completely from man's falseness and fury,And secure in this knowledgeLet your thoughts rise aboveMan's small, ...

Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results.  The Bible, 1 John 3:18 NRSV: Bible QuotesLet us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action.  The kingdom of Heaven is within you...  I shut my eyes in order to see  Troubles are often the tools by which God fashions us for better things.  You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection. Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.  Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coa...
