I know this is going to get boring, but I find this to be very creative stuff. There is a clue in all this.

More food for thought
If I have a right to “free” health care (that other Americans pay for without their consent), don’t I have the right to free ice cream as well? Even if I don’t have a right to “free” health care, certainly I have a right to free housing, free water, free food, free toothpaste and toothbrushes, free...
Unless you are a musician you probably don't get this. Every instrument you see is used. Nothing is random. All instruments used are seen at least once. No lip syncing. Overdubbing on multiple tracks a la Mary Ford. OK, worship bands...the bandwagon is leaving. Get on board.

Newly elected Florida GOP Gov. Rick Scott is making waves with his proposal that all children should receive education vouchers they can use to attend private, public or charter schools. "The parent should figure out where the dollars for that student are spent," Scott told the St. Petersburg Times.
$1.15 billion in funding for a case known as Pigford II.
The money will be doled out in payments of $50,000 for more than 90,000 alleged black farmers.
From the initial class action suit, Pigford vs. Glickman, Shirley
Sherrod and her husband received $13 million. In addition to the $13
million, the USDA gave her a job in their ranks. John Boyd, founder of the National Black Farmers Association, has admitted only 18,000 black farmer actually exist.
Shirley Sherrod incident may have opened door to exposing one of the biggest fraud cases in history
Pretty Good. Brought a tear at the end.
This video is an artistic take on how the story of the nativity might have read had a social network existed at the time of Jesus's birth. Follow this historical period as it unfolds as a digital narrative. This vignette is great for highlighting the truths and circumstances of our Savior's birth in

anthropogenic global warming reminds me of the days when I worked for the federal government and the powers-that-be would make lofty
pronouncements about things that had nothing to d...o with the job I did, and expect me to–in a vital, meaningful and exciting way–connect my day-
While most of America has already figured out that the whole anthropogenic global warming hysteria is nothing but a hoax, the Administration continues to go full-tilt at ever-increasing speed to pay homage to this socialist scam.
Very interesting none the less
This year's winter solstice — an event that will occur next Tuesday — will coincide with a full lunar eclipse in a union that hasn't been seen in 456 years. The celestial eccentricity holds special significance for spiritualities that tap into the energy of the winter solstice, the shortest day of ...

I grew up with Santa Claus, and I’m guessing you probably did too. I still remember the sad day when I learned from some really mean kids on the playground that there was no jolly man in a red velvet suit putting dolls and Michael Jackson records under the Christmas tree. And there were no elves to manufacture the Atari game system, over which Santa received many, many pleading letters. Oh, the horror. It was the grownups the whole time.

When I moved to IL 25 years ago I was SHOCKED by the level of Corruption. Not so much now. BUT, make no mistake, IL is the most corrupt state in the union and Chicago is the 2nd most corrupt major city (right behind Detroit). We need a revival.
We asked experts on local government to explain the causes of the state’s sleazy political culture. Without so much as a wink or a nod, they gave answers
I miss having Condi on the job. Smart lady.
Leftist “journalist” Katie Couric recently interviewed former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice. When Couric started regurgitating the same old tired spin about weapons of mass destruction and how the Bush Administration somehow lied to the world about that (even though most of the world’s intellig...
America’s Message To The Rest Of The World: You Send Us Oil And Cheap Plastic Gadgets And We’ll Send
Have you ever seen pictures of extravagant wealth from places such as Dubai or Abu Dhabi and wondered where in the world they got all that money from?
The Biddies on the View are cruel and without any heart at all. I too am an easy cry. What is up with this? Thank God for Elisabeth.
John Boehner's interview on "60 Minutes" has drawn a lot of attention for the number of times the incoming Speaker of the House cries in it. On Monday's "View," all the co-hosts except Elisabeth Hasselbeck took turns mocking Boehner for his copious tears.
I have always loved this story and have tried to comport my life to it. The worst decisions I ever made were made in the heat of battle. Many who think they are quick on their feet in decisions are in reality not prepared for the wind.

Has anyone asked the real question? Has TSA stopped even ONE terrorist? NONE of the bombers captured over the last couple years was because of TSA. Isn't this all a show? Stupid? Angering? Why are we doing this?
Local airport and federal security officials are fielding protests from Triangle travelers who say they have been traumatized by officers administering intimate pat-downs at security checkpoints.

You are about to celebrate your LAST CHRISTMAS on earth according to Family Radio. This is why I have become less and less interested in end time insanity. Family Radio's Camping has predicted that this time for sure now, without a doubt the world will come to an end on May 21, 2011. It won't, but it's sad that many are deceived by this foolishness.
No one except God knows the time of the end of the world. How does anyone dare to teach that the Rapture and the Day of Judgment will occur on May 21, 2011? Doesnt the Bible say very plainly that no one can know the day or the hour of Christs return? Indeed the Bible did teach that.

This is some of the most creative stuff I have seen in a long time. Take a look and listen
YES, these are the same people that do the Hyundai car commercials. Clever stuff;
They are sneaking in to steal your copper
There are thieves in our government. It's worth reading the whole thing:
The current government is not sweet, is anything but clueless -- it just doesn’t care about the same things you do -- and the amplifier has been recently modified to play at 25, while they tell you soothingly it’s been scaled back to a 6, honest.A good readThe squatters are still in there, furiously trying to pull
the plumbing out of the fiscal walls before they’re evicted.
No, the House, Senate and Presidency aren’t Spinal Tap, or Chance the Gardener, or if you’re from the paranoid end of the AM dial, they’re not Hitler, either. They’re copper thieves.

My Father's Ring
My Father died when I was 13. He and my mother were killed in a traffic accident. Several people were killed in the accident. Tragic. My aunt and uncle Ruth and Earl raised my brother and sister and me up.
It was a gift. It keeps giving.
Now 51 years later I was given a ring that belonged to my father. It had been in a drawer somewhere. I don't have many things of his anymore. A few pictures and such. But this was meaningful. Ruth gave me another gift other than her time. I'm very touched. I wish there were other things that connected to the past like that.
It was in pretty bad shape. He might have been wearing it when he was killed. It was banged up pretty badly.
In any case I took it to a jeweler and had it straightened out, re-sized and cleaned.
Many years ago a signet ring was the thing to have. This is that.
Here are a couple pictures of it. It might not mean much to anyone else, but it means a lot to me.

Why the World tries to push GOD out
I Heard this yesterday and it really sums up the question, why do people continue to try to disprove the existence of God:
Read the whole thing, it's worth the read
God's plan is not this world's plan and His ways and thoughts are not ours. Humanity's way has no room for a Divine and caring Creator; so, many prefer to ignore God's miraculous reality and substitute humanity's impossibility where nothing brings something out of nothing. God's way says husbands love your wives and children respect your parents, but humanity's way maintains God's way is too restrictive and too restraining. Gladly, gleefully, we substitute a society where each person is his own master with his own set of rules or lack of rules. And as we cheer at our successes and celebrate Christianity's demise, the wise of this world do not note the sadness and sorrow of souls who have no anchor; they ignore the desperation, the depression, the discouragement, and horrifying hopelessness of the faces all around them. Man's ways are not God's and our thoughts are not His.
Because that is so, authors without understanding make their fortunes writing fictional books which undermine God's inspired Holy Word; Schools try to teach students, but they forget any education which neglects the spirituality of their charges is a poor and pitiful thing. We banish God from classroom and courtroom; we expel Him from family and morality: we outlaw Him from business and leisure and then when chaos ensues, when hatred erupts in violence and war, when drug trafficking sweeps through our streets and violence stalks our walled and gated neighborhoods, we do not look to ourselves, we do not blame ourselves; we do not reform ourselves, we say, "God, how can You be so cruel, so uncaring, so... so unchristian?"
