Prov.14:8
"The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit."

“His third and chief pride in these declining years of a long frontier life was his granddaughter Trinidad, thirteen years old and as charming a child as could be found in the northern provinces. Petite and dark-haired, she was a lively young lady with a wonderfully free and outgoing nature better suited to a canter over the mesquite range than to an afternoon of sipping hot chocolate with the mission friars, and although she was not a vain girl, preferring at this stage in her life a good horse to a pretty dress, she did like to look trim and paid attention to her appearance.”~~~James A.

 Wal-Mart and the Pyramids

In 2004, Wal-Mart de Mexico built a supermarket by the pyramids of Teotihuacán, a cultural landmark in Mexico. The project was controversial from the start, provoking months of protests. In 2005, a former Wal-Mart de Mexico attorney told Wal-Mart executives in the United States about a series of bribes that he said had secured crucial permits and approvals necessary to build the store. Wal-Mart’s leaders did not report this information to authorities, even though the company’s internal investigation corroborated many of his allegations.
