Geeez

I clicked on this article thinking I’d learn something new.  Ummm….all I’ve got to say is that this guy is getting paid mondo bucks for common sense.  My reaction when I read the article was, “Duh!”
Seriously.
By the way, y’all.  I’m in complete denial that I have to go back Tuesday.

Matthew 19:26
Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Ecclesiastes 3:11
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.
Over the past year, God has restored [...]

I guess it’s depends on what the meaning of failure is…

A frequent commenter on Wyatt’s blog, Sully, left a link to Founding Bloggers.  The post has a video of a field trip of sorts.  This little trip is on a bus that wants to provide evidence that Bush’s legacy is one that none of us should believe is any good.
The best part is when the [...]

A funny thing happened…

After dropping my dad off at his house, today, I drove through my town.  I wanted a bottle of water, so I stopped at the local convenience store.  As I was pulling into the store, there were a couple of boys (no more than 18-20), and they just kept staring at me.  To be honest, [...]

Friendly reminder…

Caption Contest

Provide a witty and entertaining caption for this photo.  I’ll post winner Tuesday evening, since Monday is a holiday.  Have a wonderful weekend!

THE: WINNERS!!!
WOW!  The choices were hard this week!  Instead of chopping down to half, I had to keep the winners list as a top ten.  Great job, y’all!
10.  Dennis: Years later, Hillary grew [...]

Just some thoughts…

While watching the speeches this evening, a couple of things stood out to me.
The first thing was the list of everything Obama will do if elected POTUS.  1.  The president doesn’t have that kind of power.  His plans are at the mercy of the representatives and senators.  2.  As with any candidate that makes promises [...]

Whatever I want Wednesday

A bad influence is moving back to NJ. Wish I had the balls to say this.
“Walk”–Pantera

A giggle, some sour grapes, and winners!

Let the fun truly begin!  Bill Clinton is in Denver and has thrown some loosely disguised sour grapes:
He said: “Suppose you’re a voter, and you’ve got candidate X and candidate Y. Candidate X agrees with you on everything, but you don’t think that candidate can deliver on anything at all. Candidate Y you agree with [...]

Attn: Politicians!

When you are trying to orchestrate a touching family moment via satellite feed with the presidential candidate’s family, TAKE THE MICROPHONE AWAY FROM THE KIDS!  While they are nice little girls, they are excited and don’t know the full methods of political manipulation.  It is also a cheap use of children and can backfire on [...]

Kind of live blogging and rambling about the DNC

(Cut and pasted as-is…not in the mood to proofread.)
Howeird Dean convening the convention (blah, blah, blah, and oh, blah, blah, blah).
Crowd applauds.  Guess the Kool-Aid is good this time of year.
Dean continues about vibrant, inclusive, and energized and can compete in all 50 states.  I thought we had 57 or 58, but what do I [...]

Got my head in the clouds, again.

I saw this pretty cool personality test over at Jeffro’s site.  I really liked the pictures. 
Your result for The Perception Personality Image Test…
NBPC – The Daydreamer

You perceive the world with particular attention to nature. You focus on the hidden treasures of life (the background) and how that fits into the larger picture. [...]

Lamentations 3:19-32
19  I remember my affliction and my wandering,
the bitterness and the gall.
20 I well remember them,
and my soul is downcast within me.
21 Yet this I call to mind
and therefore I have hope:
22 Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
23 They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
24 [...]

I’m home.

Long drive, three major traffic jams, and a bad motorcycle accident on 95.  You know, there are people that think you should do 40 m.p.h. on the D.C. Beltway.  Maybe they were trying to match their I.Q.? I’m grateful to have made it home in one piece.  Really.
Jaws is a little freaked out by my [...]

Red Green

Various times over the years, I’ve seen The Red Green Show on public television.  It’s humorous, sometimes corny, but overall entertaining.  I haven’t seen it on Philly’s/NJ’s PBS stations for quite some time.  Much to my delight, it was on last night when I was channel surfing in my hotel room.  Enjoy!
