JUST ASKING

We had a local politician speak at our church Sunday. An incumbent Senator who has been in office for quite some time and done some good things. I will vote for him in November despite all of this talk about voting out all incumbents. To me, telling everyone to vote out all incumbents is telling us... Sign in to see full entry.

WHAT HAPPENED?

I have a Dell computer and printer. Whenever I call the company for products and service they always do their best to accommodate me. I am very happy with the product and service. My problem is that every time I get someone on the phone they have an accent. The reason is that the people I talk to... Sign in to see full entry.

WHO SAID THIS?

I saw this on a bumper sticker two weeks ago. Can you guess who said it? "WHEN THE POWER OF LOVE OVERCOMES THE LOVE OF POWER THE WORLD WILL KNOW PEACE" Sign in to see full entry.

A QUICK THOUGHT BEFORE I GO

Going on vacation for a few days, but wanted to throw something at you before I leave. We have been discussing freedom a lot here recently and most of us agree to each his own. If you want to smoke pot, do porn, drink, live a homosexual lifestyle whatever as long as you're not hurting anyone other... Sign in to see full entry.

WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY

Kooka blogged last week that there has to be separation of church and state in order for there to be true freedom. He and I discussed this in the comments section and agreed to disagree on a few things(but I do agree with him on the separation part) which is fine. We are both entitled to our...

THE KATRINA KIDS

The Tulane University graduating class of 2009 is a very special one in that the ones who got their degrees in four years were the first to do so after Hurricane Katrina ravaged New Orleans in the fall of 2005. Most people have probably not even thought of this and I would not have if one of my... Sign in to see full entry.

A PRETTY SOBERING FACT

I looked up the American War timeline today while at lunch and a pretty sobering fact was confirmed. Since World War II our country has never gone more than ten years without being involved in some kind of war or insurgence. We have been in some kind of military maneuver in every decade since 1941.... Sign in to see full entry.

WHY I DON'T LISTEN TO RUSH LIMBAUGH

I don't like OR dislike Rush Limbaugh. I don't know the man personally and never trust a media drawn image of anyone. I just don't listen to him. To me he is a disaster waiting to happen. When ESPN had him on their Sunday Kickoff show, I always turned the channel during his segment and was not... Sign in to see full entry.

OBAMA'S RATING GOING DOWN? GO FIGURE

So President Obama's rating's as far as our nation's confidence in him are going down we hear. No kidding! What did we expect? Any person who took over the mess that was left to Obama and had things like a major oil spill addeed to it would have problems while in their first two years in office. I'm...

Stop For One Second...

and think about what we witnessed on Thursday, August 28, 2008. An African-American man accepted the nominee as the Democratic candidate for THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! No seriously, stop and think about this. Whether Barack Obama wins or loses this is a great moment in US... Sign in to see full entry.
