interesting speaker this Sat, Dr. harris + need someone to bring food for u?

[Guest guest]

I think he has a dynamic/fun life. He still jump off airplanes for fun.

Come see him this Sat. This might be his last time stopping by. He's

visiting from Hawaii!

 

 

 

I've never heard him before, so I don't know if he's a good speaker (is he

a good speaker?). He's definitely a good role model as a healthy vegan!

 

 

 

If are coming to the potluck for sure and want to PAY extra $ for not

bringing a dish, inform me and I can help you buy something. I am doing

this to make sure have enough yummy good food for all.

 

 

 

I'm bringing vegan Neiman's organic cookies! Plus Nature's Vegan Cookies

with no hydrogenated oil.. They are great!

Everyone knew it, but profits speaks louder than words and/or reason.

There's too many greedy people in this world.
