I got a warning today from my husband's accounting firm. There seems to be a bogus email going around by a Tim Johnson at an IRS.gov address. DON'T OPEN IT! IT'S A VIRUS. That's it...you can go back to your regularly scheduled JU events.
"I have said and will continue to say that they have every right to choose that lifestyle and I will defend their right to do so," (Sally) Kern told the homosexual blog "Pam's House Blend. "But I do not have to agree with it and speaking against it is not hate speech." So said Sally at a rally in her honor at the Oklahoma's state Capitol yesterday. Thousands showed up in support. What a tremendous message and encouragment for her. If I lived nearby I would have ...
We have yet another ridiculous argument which has now gone to litigation in the school system. No wonder the parents are homeschooling their kids in droves these days. Have we lost our minds? A Wisconsin school system is facing a lawsuit because a high school teacher gave a student a zero on an art project because the student had a picture of a cross in it. At least the kid did the work! Golly! How many kids are even doing the work nowadays?&nb...
Some more interesting news today. Some of this got me to thinking....some to laughing, some I'm happy about; some not so happy, but thought all was interesting to share.... a few blurbs from today's news. Gore is in Panic Mode: British environmental analyst Christopher Monckton says Gore is panicking because of the latest attack by global warming skeptics. Monckton said: "The alarmists are alarmed, the panic mongers are panicking, the scare...
Amanda sent me this tonight from Fox News. I thought it was pretty interesting. Any thoughts? A clay tablet that has baffled scientists for 150 years has been identified as a witness's account of the asteroid suspected of being behind the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. Researchers who cracked the cuneiform symbols on the Planisphere tablet believe that it recorded an asteroid thought to have been more than half a mile across. The tablet, foun...
Much has been written here and elsewhere about OKlahoma State Rep Sally Kern and her blatent honesty of her belief on the Homosexual lifestyle. She dared speak out. Shame on her. But did you know the rest of the story? Many know and are angry (especially you know who) about her comments on how the "Homosexuality Agenda is destroying the nation" and is a bigger threat to our country than the Islamic Terrorists. How many know her speech was not o...
Have you heard about the Doomsday Vault? I read about it in the paper a week or so ago. It's basically a seed bank or vault built to last 10,000 years and is situated near the North Pole. It's the coldest place they could find and they call it officially the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. This vault is located in a place ( I'm not kidding) called Longyearbyen. It's part of a series of Islands with a temperature of 30 below zero. I...
OK, this is sort of dumb.....but I'm just sitting here, taking a lunch break, checking my email and really enjoying my sandwich. So I got to thinking of asking the JUsers what their favorite sandwich is. Who knows maybe I'll come up with a new favorite. I'm not especially a big sandwich eater. Usually I'll opt for soup, leftover pasta or salad for lunch but on occasion I like to have a sandwich. Today I'm eating a fresh tomato and cheese with ma...
(sent by one who knows the deceased and asked that I pass along to those who also may know Him) Jerusalem -Jesus Christ, 33 of Nazareth died Friday on Mount Calvary also known as Golgatha, Place of the Skull. Betrayed by the Apostle Judas, Jesus was crucified by the Romans by order of the ruler Pontius Pilate. The causes of death were crucifixion, extreme exhaustion, severe torture and loss of blood. Jesus Christ, a descendant of Abraham, was ...
I think I'm starting to understand how Jonah felt when God told him to go to Nineveh and he ran in the opposite direction. California is in the news again. If God told me to go to California, I'm sure I'd be questioning him, thinking I was hearing wrong. I would never want to live in California. It seems that a librarian in California was fired from her job for reporting a library patron downloading child pornography on the computers. M...
I've been thinking alot about marriages lately. Maybe it's because of this latest infidelity involving our NY Governor. Where is the commitment level? Did you see the pain and shame on the Governor's wife's face? Can you imagine what's going through his children's minds? Marriage, has been under attack these last so many years and I'm wondering what we can do about it. Families are hurting. Children are feeling abandoned and lost. S...
Everyone seems stressed these days. Have you noticed this? Either they are in a hurry or they are angry or they are just plain annoyed. And it's little things that set them off. I admit, I too find myself annoyed at little things. I catch myself all the time and try to change my attitude because I really don't want to be angry, annoyed or rude. It's really not a pleasant state to be in. I'm really making a concerted effort these days to be plea...
A few weeks ago I met a missionary named Jean. She was amazing. She's very old now having retired from mission work but still an inspiration even today. She told us story after story of her travels as a missionary to the Congo She was there for 42 years starting right after WWII when she was only 22 years old. She's now 84 years old and gets around with the help of a walker. Physically she's limited but mentally she's as sharp as eve...
I was watching 20/20 last night with John Stossel. Anyone watch that? It was about teens having sex and the messed up lives that followed as a result. A big portion of his focus was about the 18 year olds having sex with 15-16 year old girlfriends and ending up on the Sexual Offender Lists all across the country. Once you get on such a list, there is no getting off. So for just about all these young men their lives have been drastically limited as to what th...
Did you hear this one? Ohhhhh you have to hear this. How stupid can one be ...........expecting us to be as stupid as she? It seems as tho a 37 year old lawyer and TV commentator has a bit of a problem. She is a compulsive gambler and now she's suing the casinos for racketeering; for separating her from her mooola! Yep. She's chasing another long-shot. Gotta give her credit. She's consistent and persistent. It seems she started out a...
