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.

Newt's quote about o ...Thanks Judi Cole!







"As an American I am not so shocked that Obama was given



The Nobel Peace Prize without any accomplishments to his



Name, because America gave him the White House based on



The same credentials."



~Newt Gingrich

Socialism ... Thanks Alma!




2012 Campaign Poster









"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy,



its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.."



-- Winston Churchill


These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read:



1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the



wealth out of prosperity.



2. What one person receives without working for, another person



must work for without receiving.



3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the



government does not first take from somebody else.


4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.





5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to



work because the other half is going to take care of them;



and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work,



because somebody else is going to get what they work for,




Can you think of any reason for not sharing this?



Neither could I .. .


Message for o ... Thanks Judi cole!

Amazing how something with no


vulgarity can be one of the most

insulting and powerful messages to

Obama that I have seen to

date!











NOT RACIST...NOT VIOLENT...JUST

NOT SILENT ANY MORE!

KEEP This One Going! Send to your

friends

A Special man ... thanks Judi Cole!





Change Your Thinking



It will take just 37 seconds to read this and change your thinking..



Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.


One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs.



His bed was next to the room's only window.

The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.


The men talked for hours on end.


They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation..



Every afternoon, when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.


The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and colour of the world outside.



The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.



Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every colour and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.

As the man by the window described all this in exquisite details, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine this picturesque scene.
One warm afternoon, the man by the window described a parade passing by.


Although the other man could not hear the band - he could see it in his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

Days, weeks and months passed.



One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep.


She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.


As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone.



Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the real world outside.



He strained to slowly turn to look out the window besides the bed.


It faced a blank wall..


The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window.



The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall.

She said, 'Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you.'



Epilogue:



There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations.

Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled.


If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can't buy.




'Today is a gift, that is why it is called The Present .'



The origin of this letter is unknown, but it brings good luck to everyone who passes it on.


Do not keep this letter.
I pray you will forward it to all your friends to whom you wish God's blessings.

ATM skimmer ... Thanks Luis!




Customer Discovers Card Skimmer On Bank ATM









When most of us think about illegal card skimmers on ATMs, we think of free-standing cash machines at convenience stores or on the street. But a sharp-eyed bank customer in Massachusetts spotted a skimmer at the last place you'd expect one: the bank.







The customer tells WBZ-TV that he noticed a loose piece of plastic on the machine near where you insert your card. When he touched it, the piece fell out and it was revealed to be a skimmer that would store users' card numbers and PINs.







The scammers who placed the skimmer did a decent job of making it appear to be an integral part of the ATM. One would only spot the change in appearance in a side-by-side comparison with an un-rigged machine. In the above picture, the ATM on the left contains the skimmer, while the one of the right does not.







While the customer who noticed this skimmer hadn't yet used his card on the machine, it's not yet know how many users' information was stolen by the skimmer -- or how someone managed to tinker with a bank ATM without being detected.
