This is short and true.......says it all. Luke ''The Drifter '' says : "We Americans were tired of being thought of as dumb by the rest of the world . So we went to the polls in November and removed all doubt."

                                    Off to a Good start ?                 Now maybe we should take another look at this and think about this ?  

I got him good. Yes siree.    He was feeling mighty uncomfortable.  It's hard to do but I managed to pull it off.  *pats herself on the back* What did I do?  I managed to keep a secret (that's pretty good in itself)  for about four weeks to surprise (as in get him good) my husband on Valentine's Day.  It's also our 27th anniversary.  I hired a Barbershop Quartet to sing to him, hand him a rose, a card and a heart box...

SEN. JUDD GREGG WITHDRAWS AS COMMERCE SECRETARY NOMINEE I had a feeling this was coming......any thoughts?    What about the person who replaced him as U.S. Senator in New Hampshire? 

There's head knowledge and then there's heart knowledge.  Sometimes you know something just because you know it.  But then when you go thru the experience of it, it really strikes home.  Have you ever had that happen to you?  You know, when you think you know something but after experiencing it  then you realize you really didn't know what you thought you knew?  Does this even make sense?   Well to me recently I really came to the realization of some...

One of my favorite sayings is "The proof is always in the pudding."  I'm sure alot of you say that from time to time.  The problem is the pudding takes a while to cool down and then when it's time no one is around to discuss the results. I was thinking about that when I read the news release about Ben Stein.  You remember, the guy who was so controversial with his documentary, "Expelled-No Intelligence Allowed" a few months ago? Many poo-pooed the whole idea that t...

My three sons are......... ahem.......a little bit competitive.  In a friendly sort of way of course.  They are very close in age and have been good athletes all through their growing up years.  Actually they are still somewhat involved in sports in their young to middle twenties.  Now I'm not sure if that's what bred all this competition stuff or not, but their competitive nature spilled out in other areas.   If one bought an ipod, the other had to buy ...

When I was in Maine I used to listen to a preacher, now deceased, named Adrian Rogers.  I loved him.   He had some pretty good wisdom and pithy sayings to dispense on a daily basis.  He always kept me smiling.  Anyhow I recently read something he said and thought I'd share.  I can hear his booming voice now.  "You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.  What one person receives without working for, another...

  There's been alot of talk about the plane going down in the Hudson lately. It was a great heartwarming story of survival.  I've seen the pictures going around the web of this plane in the hands of the Almighty placing the plane safely in the water.   Of course, being a Christian I believe that to be true.  Immediately after hearing about it I couldn't help but think maybe there was somebody or sombodies who God especially was saying "their...

I don't watch Oprah anymore.  In fact I try to stay as far away from her and her philosophies as I can, but I do wish I saw her with Ted Haggard recently.  Did anyone see that show?  A friend shared with me the following article printed in the Charisma magazine and I thought this viewpoint was interesting.  Here it is: Last week former Colorado pastor Ted Haggard hit the talk show circuit to promote the new HBO documentary about his fall fro...

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 ...

Choices, choices.  We all have times in our lives when we must make a difficult choice.  To move or not to move.  To take a new job or stay put.  To have another baby or be content with the two you have.   Sometimes it's a no-brainer but more than likely we have to weigh the pros and cons and agonize a bit before we make such decisions.  Then we pray for a while that we made the right one.   I was thinking about that yesterday whe...

"These actions were so profound that it leads you to believe there was a tremendous indifference to human life."  Over and over again we read the same sort of disturbing but true stories.  They are getting just a bit too common with increasing frequency.  There seems to be no end in sight.  But this is not fiction.  It's not made up.  It's real honest to goodness evil that lurks in the hearts and minds of people.  Stuff that novels are made up of.&nb...

Back home in Maine I'm now getting reports they are having lots and lots of fun with lots and lots of snow!!!  NOT!!!!   I just want to say to all my friends back home in Maine and New Hampshire......I feel your pain.  Really.  I do.  That's why I'm not there anymore.  I had enough pain in the neck cold weather and have had my fill of shoveling snow to last a lifetime already.  Anyhow, someone sent me this diary of living in Maine and I t...

Recently another blogger and I were having a discussion( http://kfc.joeuser.com/article/337204/This_Woman_is_a_Whore ) over a comment I made about how reading the bible  today is very similar to reading the secular newspapers when it comes to end time events.  Everything is lining up exactly as we were told by the prophets of old.  It's really quite amazing.  In other words much of what was written two thousand years ago is very applicable today.  The signs they told ...
