Is the government purposely going down economically in order to turn Socialist? That seems to be a question some are posing. I am not sure how I feel about that, believing myself to be poor in economics and not really knowing what it means that well. I do understand, like the Republicans that the...

Late St. Patrick's Recognition
I was late for St. Patrick's day this year by one week, but I have to mention him every year. I am a protestant of sorts, more general Christian than any particular category, and am fascinated by his story. He was taken slave by the Irish when he was a young teenager from what is thought to be Wales... Sign in to see full entry.

Oz Tops the Box Office Two Weeks Straight
As in "Braveheart" the American public has spoken and overridden the critics. And another thought provoking and good film has been saved. I just read that "Oz the Great and Powerful" has topped the box office for two weeks and I am glad to hear it! I may go see it again today or tomorrow in spite of... Sign in to see full entry.

Kudos to the New Pope
I am thrilled with the idea of someone as Pope who has fought for the betterment of the poor and oppressed throughout his career as a Catholic Priest. He must be popular among the Catholics to have been elected that quickly. He has a lot of tough agendas to address; I hope he and the Catholic Church... Sign in to see full entry.

I Liked the New OZ Film
There is so much criticism about the new Oz Film I have learned over the years, to disregard the critics if I want to see a film and form my own opinion. Very often I like them when the critics don't. This was the case with Braveheart, and I must say I was right with the majority opinion. This is... Sign in to see full entry.

Chavez Passes
I know little about Chavez and Venezuela, but I do like that apparently he was able to elevate some of their poor people and some grieve his passing now. Apparently he was friends with dictators, which looks off and anti U.S. in some ways. He has a nice smile in some of his pictures which would seem... Sign in to see full entry.

Toxic Food Storage
Now it is believed that food storage and especially microwaving in plastics may be toxic to the food. I, for one cannot necessarily afford to replace all my plasic storage just yet, but I have quit microwaving in them. That may cause the worst problems. Some of the experts are suggesting glass...

Spending Cuts, Feuds, No Cooperation
I have not followed the spending cuts issues in details due to my weariness in general and trouble focusing the last few weeks anyway. Not to make excuses, but some of it is what the politicians are paid good salaries for and get raises for when hardly anyone else does, including me. But I do see... Sign in to see full entry.

Florida, Suddenly You are Falling into a Sinkhole
What would that be like to be sleeping around midnight, and then suddenly you are falling, alarmed, screaming into a huge black hole? He is 36 years old. Maybe to never wake up again. That happened in Florida, the sleeping man's bedroom went down; the family heard him screaming and have not heard... Sign in to see full entry.

Don't Just Think in the Desert
After thinking and praying, I seemed to get this insight that I have begun spinning my wheels with thinking and need to go ahead and start doing things again. Even if they do not go just right, they may not anyway with the dark clouds I seem to live under as an adult albeit, under God's provision.... Sign in to see full entry.
