I recently discovered the perfect solution for identity theft… It is quite simple really: have the type identity that no one else would want… As I have watched the furor erupt over the upcoming election, I have also noticed that the division in our country has reached an unprecedented level – except perhaps during the

Twitter Rant
Some of you may have noticed that I have been on a Twitter rant lately. I have been on the social media platform for quite a while, but used it to gather information instead of interacting. In this blog post, I am going to gather today’s tweets under 1 roof. Again, for the most part,
Second Civil War
Ok folks. Enough is enough. See my twitter timeline, or this blog – and you will see what I think of the 2 party Republic we have. It is set up, INTENTIONALLY, to get under your skin and make you choose sides in an American vs American fight… Do NOT let them have control over
vocabulary,,, dialect::: punctuation… and the Bible
My mama had a shirt that my sister Jen gave her (I think), which touts the importance of grammar. (I use grammer at certain times to show my ignorance). The shirt read, “Let’s eat grandma. Let’s eat, grandma.” I always thought it captured part of her essence as a nana. There are two reasons for
Religion From a Third Person Perspective
I am gonna begin this post with a declarative statement. Any time I am asked what I believe, or what religion I adhere to, I tell folks that I am a Christian by choice. By that, I mean I believe in the Holy Trinity – the Holy Spirit, the gospel of Jesus Christ, and God
Change Is Inevitable II
One of my chores that I have an obligation to take care of (at least in the spring/summer/fall) is grass cutting for the family. Although it is sometimes difficult to complete – given the back/knee issues I deal with – it is also rewarding. I suppose it is due to the good feeling I get
Change Is Inevitable
Nelson Mandela has a quote, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” I hope anyone who reads this learns from it. It is in no way criticism or condescension, but rather an opposing force to the negativity being passed around right now.. It is simply an observation derived
The Incredible Power of Music
Andy Rooney is one of my heroes. He used to close the show “60 minutes” with a story that I always learned from. He was a correspondent during WWII… In short, he lived a full life, and gained a lot of wisdom in the process. He almost always started his “60 Minutes” segment with the
Forgotten Numbers in Time
Well, it has been a year since we lost mama. It ain’t no easier to stomach, although I still feel her presence daily… Memory is a powerful thing. I am always the one complaining, urging people not to document things – but rather really live them and soak up every second. Well, I am wrong.
God’s Final Experiment?
I have often mused (and pondered) whether our system of government is God’s final experiment for mankind – at least in the governing sense… I arrived at that conclusion based on the similarities between our founding fathers and early Christianity. One of the most convincing apologetics (or arguments) for the truth Christianity holds is the
