IF I WERE A BUTTERFLY

By Jim Sheng

If I were a butterfly 
I'd thank you Lord for giving me wings,
And if I were a robin in a tree
I'd thank you Lord that I could sing,
And if I were a fish in the sea
I'd wiggle my tail and I'd giggle with glee,
But thank you Lord for making me,
Me, me, me.

For you gave me a heart
And you gave me a smile,
You you gave Jesus and you made me your child,
And I Just thank you Father for making me,
Me, me, me.

If I were an elephant thank you Lord by raising my trunk,
And if I were a kangaroo
You know I'd hop right up to you,
And if I were an octopus
I'd thank you Lord for my fine looks,
But I thank you Father for making me,
Me, me, me.

Chorus

If I were a wiggly worm
I'd thank you Lord that I could squirm,
And if I were a crocodile
I'd thank you Lord for my big smile,
And if I were a fuzzy wuzzy bear
I'd thank you Lord for my fuzzy wuzzy hair,
But I just thank you father for making me,
Me, me, me.

coat-of-arms

By Jim Sheng
Heraldry probably began with the knights in armour. When wearing a helmet in battle or in tournaments a knight could not be recognised; so he used symbols to decorate his shield and surcoat. The surcoat was the loose garment worn over the armour to protect it from rain or hot sun and actually was the "coat-of-arms"; it was decorated on the front and back with the same device as on the shield. The correct expression for entire design is an achievement . An achievement consists of the shield, helmet, rest, wreath, mantling and motto. These are the main parts. To them can be added supporters and a compartment. In the centre is the most important part, the shield . The surface of the shield is called the field  and on it the colourful charges are placed. The shield is called the arms or coat-of-arms  and can be drawn in any shape - in an upright position or slanting, which is the position it would fall into if hung on a peg. In Heraldry it slants to dexter. The helmet denot...

You can find your Wireless Network Key on Virgin Media Wireless Router

By Jim Sheng
We have a new netbook computer, and don't know where to find network key, which is needed to setup wireless connection. A network key may also be called WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key or WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) key. A wireless network key is a security feature that prevents unauthorized users from accessing a wireless network. An unprotected network is an unlocked virtual door, anybody within range can piggyback on the network undetected. I use Virgin media broadband with a Virgin media wireless router, this router has a WPA key taped on the router, that WPA key is an English word consisting of 10 letters. To tape network key on the router is a good idea, because we may never lose or forget a wireless network key as long as we possess the router.
