I can't help but offer up kudos to a person I've never met after hearing her story this week.  My husband works with a young man whose aunt has crafted White House Christmas ornaments for decades.  Every year she gets some sort of letter requesting her Christmas ornament for the upcoming Christmas holiday.  Well guess what happened this year?  She got her expected letter per usual or so she thought until she read it.  Now keep in mind she's given a hand crafted ...

Have you ever played the fool?  I sure have done and said some foolish things in my life but as far as I know, I'm not characterized by that term. We've all played the fool from time to time but some seem as though they could make a living from it.  In other words some are just born naturals.   A fool is one who is habitually unwise, silly or some may say a dupe.  He hasn't a clue. He continues not to learn from the mistakes of his past repeatin...

A Jewish friend in my neighborhood sent this along.  I thought it was quite timely given the subject matter I've been engaging in lately with some fellow JU'sers.  Much of this I've been expousing forever it seems.  Because it's true.      This is why I love being a Jew:  Our condition has never been better than it is now! Only the television and the media make people think that the end of the world is near. Only 65 years ago, Jews were broug...

  “Now more than ever before, the people are responsible for the character of their Congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless, and corrupt, it is because the people tolerate ignorance, recklessness, and corruption.” -- President James Garfield

It already creeps me out when I call somewhere and they know my name and address.  For instance everytime I call my local newspaper to cancel a week or call my pest control people it seems they know who I am and my address before I even say hello.  A friend sent me this...pretty creepy.  Well one good thing...sure must cut down on crank calls.  This is absolutely hilarious, well...it is and it's not...&...

I've lived in Florida now just under two years and I can already vouch for a few of these items on the following Florida Code list. The roads are totally insane; as it says here.  Whoever came up with the naming of the streets completely messed with our northern heads when we first moved here.  You can have the same name on a road with a different ending like street, ave or drive.  For instance I've seen Griffin Ave, Griffin Street, Griffin Way etc right in the same...

In doing some research the other day I came upon the following passage written in the private journals of Albert Einstein sometime in the mid 1930's.  From what I've read this was written shortly before many like him left Europe before the onset of the war.  This emigration was known as the "brain drain."  He knew about the impending danger in Germany.  Take a listen to what he had to say back then.  I think you'll find it very informative especially in lieu of where we ...

First Abraham Lincoln said this: We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven. We have been preserved, these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth, and power as no other nation has ever grown.  But we have forgotten God.  We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were prod...

My Dad's here to visit me for the first time since I moved South.  This was a very big move on his part.  A maniac hoakie leaving the state of his birth to come and visit his daughter.  I wasn't sure he was really going to come at first because we got into an argument over the phone a few days before he was scheduled to arrive.  Sometimes he gets short with me I should have known better.  The conversation went like this: Me:  "Hi, it's me." ...

Holiday foods......yum!  Do you make special foods for the holidays?  What's your favorite?  I'm not sure what my favorite is exactly but a New England Boiled Dinner on St. Patrick's Day is pretty close.  I made that last night and it's got to be up there among my very best meals.  I mean I love the turkey and mashed potatoes with all the trimmings on Thanksgiving and all but hmmmm.....corn beef and cabbage with those little red potatoes and carrots......oh ...

Scientist: Terrorists Could Use Insects as Weapons Monday, February 02, 2009 By Jeffrey A. Lockwood   The terrorists' letter arrived at the mayor of Los Angeles's office on Nov. 30, 1989. A group calling itself "the Breeders" claimed to have released the Mediterranean fruit fly in Los Angeles and Orange counties, and threatened to expand their attack to the San Joaquin Valley, an important center of Californian agriculture. With perverse logic, they said that unless the ...

Time.  We all have it.   When it comes day to day, we all have the same seven days a week,  24 hours a day, sixty minutes to the hour and the same sixty seconds to the minute.   Some are really wise in the spending of their time and others waste it like the leftovers after a banquet.  I'm guilty of both I guess.  There are times when I'm very productive getting more stuff done than thought humanly possible.  I sleep very...

What is it about husbands and weather?  Geeesh!  I think my husband should have been a weatherman.  His favorite channel has got to be the weather station.  Hands down.  I could care less unless I have plans or there's a big storm coming.  Otherwise I just deal with it.  Not him. Nope.  Not only does he have to know our weather here for the next 10 days but he also keeps an eye on where all the kids live in their perspective states and our...

No, it's not who you are thinking of.  Yes, there is another Sabrina out there who needs much needed prayer.  From time to time I speak about one of our missionaries from our church back home.  I'm not sure if I've ever spoken here about Ben but we started supporting him from the beginning of his ministry to Brazil.  For a while he was just a single guy with a heart for God and the country of Brazil.  Then he met Dani.  They've been married a couple ...
