The old cowboy sat down at the Starbucks and ordered a cup of coffee . As he sat sipping his coffee, a pretty young woman sat down next to him. She turned to the cowboy and asked, 'Are you a real cowboy?' He replied, 'Well, I've spent my whole life breaking colts, working cattle, going to rodeos, fixing fences, pulling calves, bailing hay, doctoring calves, cleaning&nbs...

Someone recently asked me what I thought of a doctrine out there called Generational Curses. I'm not sure how many have heard of this teaching before but there's a movement that's been around for some time to go back into the past and dig up previous memories and history hoping to find answers for present problems. As a result, marriages have been destroyed, relationships put to the test and many other bad things have resulted in such practices. ...
I was wondering if I should write Mr. Gore a letter about HIS global warming ideas. I guess I just want to tell him how I'm freezing here in Florida. I've been drinking hot tea and warm cocoa for days now. I'm wearing flannels, socks and heavy coats down here. As I'm writing this, it's 34 degrees and it's been this cold for days now. I ran four miles last night in 44 degree weather and my bare legs felt like ice cubes. We haven't seen 60...
Of course it's no secret but I enjoy very much thinking outside the physical. I believe the physical is just a visible picture of the spiritual. For every physical reality we have a spiritual counterpart. I also believe the spiritual is much more important than the tangible or what is often called the temporal. Life is just a vapor and then we move on to something eternal. Too many times we are content on dealing with the physical while we ignore the spiritual alth...
Lately the subject of patience has come up. I've been noticing for quite some time how extinct this virtue has become in our day. People are hurrying too and fro not taking the time to really enjoy or even to help each other. I was listening to the radio the other day when a caller called in commenting on how he sat outside a Walmart just to people watch. His observation led him to the conclusion that people are just so busy doing and rushing around...
How many remember Ray Stevens? Have you seen his latest song on Obama Care? It's spreading like wildfire! I especially like the part to Nancy Pelosi on doing the hokey pokey. Check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dc_-L4fyLUo&feature=autoshare_twitter
Things I Have Learned by John Piper Since my father died, I have been looking through his papers. I found a small sheet with the following fifteen counsels, titled "Things I Have Learned." He didn't make most of these up. Some of them go back to his college days when he was absorbing the pithy wisdom of Bob Jones Senior. They have again confirmed the obvious: I owe my father more than I can ever remember. The comment after each one is mine. Things I Have Learned 1. The right road al...
While I can't take credit for this (sent to me by a friend) I can express the same sentiments. So for all my liberal and conservative friends out in JU land and elsewhere! To All My Liberal-Democrat Friends: Please accept with no obligation, implied or explicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced wi...
There's a very well kept secret going around. I haven't heard anything in the media. I've been talking to people who might know about such things but am finding out they know nothing. The funny thing is there is lots of documentation on this and it's been going on for years. What am I talking about? International accounting system. Another name for this would be a One World Financial System. It's in the works for our country to jump on board in 201...
I'd like to say to Barack Obama "watch out because there's a new man in town." I just listened to a new congressional candidate who can outspeak Obama in a good way. He speaks from the heart not from the telepromter. He speaks the truth and doesn't use flattery to sway us away from it. In other words..he makes sense as the truth normally does. His name is Lt. Col Allen West from Florida. He's worth listening to and checking out.&nbs...
I've just returned from Ohio where I was, for the most part, pretty news deprived. I saw news bits here and there but taking care of two toddlers pretty much stole most of my time. Anyhow one piece of news I couldn't miss was the Tiger Woods cheating scandal. My first thought was how tragic because he seemed like such a great role model not only for everyone in and around the sports world but especially the black population because it's well known there are not alot of ...
Someone did read the entire House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009 From Michael Connelly - Retired attorney, Constitutional Law Instructor, Carrollton , Texas Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009. I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law ...
They lied. That was ugly. I got the call two days ago that I had another grandson. I came here to OHIO expecting a girl and was kind of surprised to find out it was a boy when they called from the hospital. They gave me very little information and now I know why. When I called my husband with the first baby news, he said for me not to believe it until I changed that first diaper. He knew how convinced I was when I left home even bringing the pink/whit...
Yep, another boy. So, let's see. That makes for me two brothers, three sons, one stepson, and three grandsons! I don't have any sisters, daughters or granddaughters to date. There's still time. It ain't over yet.. The Pink/White Nikes are going home with me! It's going to be a Blue Christmas! The name is to be announced which is per usual for my son and his wife. I heard one name passed around but I won't say until it's final. They li...
