Now this is one big nightmare!  Hope you have a sense of humor.  Sent to me by a friend.  The Nightmare In the nightmare I found myself nude in bed, and I was looking at a mirror on the ceiling, and I discovered that I am a Negro, and I'm circumcised! Quickly I sat up, found my pants and looked in the pockets to find my driver's license photo and it was that same color. Black. I felt myself being very de...

A friend sent me this story and I thought it was a hoot!!!!  GardenGrass Snakes also known as Garter Snakes (Thamnophissirtalis) can be dangerous.   Yes, grass snakes , not rattlesnakes. Here's why.........   A couple in Baltimore, Maryland had a lot of potted plants.   During a recent cold spell, the wife was bringing some of them indoors to protect them from a possible freeze.  It turned out that a little green garden ...

"Freedom comes from knowing the truth.  Bondage results from missing it." I read those words recently from a well known Pastor.  I thought, "Ain't that the truth?"  Someone here on JU asked me recently how I can "know" that I'm going to heaven since he believes we really can't know for sure.  I refuted that, because I do absolutely know for sure I'm going to heaven.  I have been set free from that doubt of not knowing.  There are some religious ...

Michael Jackson is dead?  Shocking news.  Of course it was unexpected for sure unlike the news of Farrah's passing earlier today.      Takes me back to when Elvis Presley died in the 70's.   He was supposed to be in my neck of the woods the very next day for a concert.  Very unexpected, just like this news today. So, I wonder if Jackson was prepared for this trip to eternity. Most people don't give it a thought. He wasn't that old for one t...

Early in his ministry the great evangelist and Bible teacher, Harry A. Ironside, was living in the area of San Francisco working with a group of believers there called "Brethren."  On Sunday as he was walking thru the city he came upon a group of Salvation Army workers who were holding a meeting on the corner of Market and Grant Avenues.  There were probably about 60 of them. When they recognized Dr. Ironside, they immediately asked him if he would like to give his testimony.  He...

I came across this quote the other day in my reading.  It was written by Thomas Macauley, a British Parliamentarian who wrote these words concerning the United States in 1857: "Your Republic will be as fearfully plundered and laid waste by barbarians in the 20th century as the Roman Empire was in the 5th Century, with this difference-the Huns and Vandals who ravaged the Roman Empire came from without and your Huns and Vandals will have been engendered within your own country."   ...

You've heard the saying, "there but the grace of God go I."  Well I'm saying that today on my son's behalf.  He was on the same train that crashed in DC yesterday except that he was on it over the weekend.  He was the best man at a wedding there on Saturday.  He's feeling the near miss and is glad he didn't take the train yesterday or that this crash happened just a day or so earlier.  I thank God for the protection of my son and pray for the families who w...

Well it's happened.  If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I'd still believe it.  So I guess seeing isn't always believing, but I already knew that, LOL.    You can actually feel it.  What am I talking about?    The temperature.  I saw the temperature reach 101 today as I stared at the thermometer!  Yesterday we had been told we would reach 100.  But as far as we could see, checking it hourly we only got up to 99 and never ...

It looks like Miss California isn't the only one receiving death threats.  Here's an ex-gay with an ex gay song and music video telling the whole world that he's in love with a woman. Make sure you watch his music video at the end.  It pretty much says it all.   Notice the family dynamics involved in the song.  Italy's "Festival di San Remo," the most important musical happening in my country which is seen on T.V. by millions of Italians, beca...

My husband and I were fortunate to be walking by a new, anticipated to be opened soon, BBQ restaurant near our home the other night.   It just so happened to be opened for business.  It was their opening night.   We couldn't believe our fortune.  Never happened to us before.  There was nothing in the newspaper announcing this opening like they usually do with the other openings.  So we sauntered right in questioning whether they we...

When I take a few quiet moments to look around I can't help but see God's fingerprints all over this world we live in.  From time to time I express that thought to those around me.  Today I came across a quote that spoke to me along this line.  I guess this is where the rubber meets the road when it comes to faith eh?    "All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen." — Ralph Waldo Emerson , poet

Let's get rid of Carrie.  Can't say I'm surprised.  I bet the pressure Hollywood put on was exceedingly great.  Even the powerful Donald Trump caved.  http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,525807,00.html  

My brother is an airline pilot.  He sure has alot to say about the airline industry.  And it's not good.  Last month my husband and I flew to VA  and then from Iowa to Floridia.  For two of us the total price for everything including taxes was about $221.  We were estatic.  My brother, when he found out, was angry.  He said it was ludicrous.  He was not happy.   What's the problem?  He went on...
