Made In America

It is hard to find items in the stores that are completely made in America. Even companies that give their address in the United States of America still have items sent in from other countries. I bought some candy from a boy scout and when I got it the sticker said made in china.

If you are looking for made in America items you should visit ola.com. Americas favorite selling and buying site has lots of items hand made and/or made in America items, such as

This item from Yoigbear66

Blue Necklace Pendant and Bracelet Set Handmade Free Shipping

Or this item from KornKountryTreasures

Green and White Doily Hand Crochet

Or this one from callmemomo

Handmade (by me) Small Tote Bag All Colors

Or this item for sale by chateycathey

NEW FEED THE BIRDS THROW NWOT

The last item was not hand made but was made in America. Check out our auction site at ola.com. The best place to be for buyers and sellers alike. You can find just about any item you are looking for, hand made or not.

Be safe, be healthy and be happy

The Talking Centipede

A single guy decided life would be more fun
if he had a pet.

So he went to the pet store

and told the owner
that he wanted to buy an unusual pet.

After some discussion,
he finally bought a talking centipede,
(100-legged bug),

which came in a little white box
to use for his house. (ok so this one is yellow!!!)

He took the box back home,
found a good spot for the box,
and decided he would start off
by taking his new pet
to church with him.

So he asked the centipede
in the box,
"Would you like to go
to church with me today?
We will have a good time."

Silence!!

But there was no answer
from his new pet.

This bothered him a bit,
but he waited a few minutes
and then asked again,
"How about going
to church with me
and receive blessings?"

But again,
there was no answer
from his new friend and pet.
So he waited
a few minutes more,
thinking about the situation.

The guy decided
to invite the centipede
one last time.

This time he
put his face up against
the centipede's house and shouted,
"Hey, in there!
Would you like to go
to
church with me
and learn about God?"

.....

YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THIS ......

This time,
a little voice
came out of the box,

"I heard you the first time!

I'm putting my shoes on!"

Now, after you quit laughing, you can take a look and see the great variety of shoes that OLA.com has for you!!
