For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Posts: 1,593 My good friend, Dick Klitch's daughter Jenny, won the Ohio State Singles Championship and began pro-tennis at about 15 out of Grandview, Ohio. She rose to a # 50 ranking, put herself through law school, and now has a top rated law job in D.C. Dick and Joan put a lot of time, thought, and effort into their kids' futures. The young pro repeatedly played in Wimbledom. Of course, Dick is the dean of tennis teaching pros in Columbus, Ohio and often had to forgo dinner, because the young lady was waiting for him every evening to go to the courts for tennis. Dick Klitch and I grew up together in Portsmouth Ohio.

To play any sport at a high level takes a lot of practice in addition to God and parent-given
talent. In business or investing a big criteria is ROI (return on investment). Another Portsmouth Ohio pro, Ray Pelfrey was a good enough running back and receiver to play HS football at Portsmouth, college football at Auburn and Eastern Kentucky, and for a few NFL teams. He could also kick (punt) a football as well, and became the entreprerneur of one of the finest football kicking schools in the country- Professional Kicking services- www.professionalkickingservices.com which his son, Rob, runs now. PKS has been in business for forty years. As an example of ROI, Ray tells me: "... we had parents of two young men, pay the $500 camp fee each and go on to win scholarships worth $60,000 to $80,000 each for four years."

If young basketball players seek ROI, there could be no finer school to commit to than the University of Kentucky. The returns of the legendary program and the bluegrass experiences are very worthwhile committing to. Of course, like all who post on these Kentucky forum threads, I have slight prejudice and a lot of pride in the program.
