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.

Using Jewish slave labor is never a good idea ... Thx Marge R!

Interesting tidbit from WW2

What a terrific - true story!!!

This story is confirmed in Elmer Bendiner's book, The Fall of Fortresses.

*Sometimes, it's not really just luck.*

Elmer Bendiner was a navigator in a B-17 during WW II. He tells this story of a World War II bombing run over Kassel, Germany , and the unexpected result of a direct hit on their gas tanks. "Our B-17, the Tondelayo, was barraged by flak from Nazi antiaircraft guns. That was not unusual, but on this particular occasion our gas tanks were hit.
Later, as I reflected on the miracle of a 20 millimeter shell piercing the fuel tank without touching off an explosion, our pilot, Bohn Fawkes, told me it was not quite that simple. "On the morning following the raid, Bohn had gone down to ask our crew chief for that shell as a souvenir of unbelievable luck.
The crew chief told Bohn that not just one shell but 11 had been found in the gas tanks. 11 unexploded shells where only one was sufficient to blast us out of the sky. It was as if the sea had been parted for us. A near-miracle, I thought.
Even after 35 years, so awesome an event leaves me shaken, especially after I heard the rest of the story from Bohn.
"He was told that the shells had been sent to the armorers to be defused. The armorers told him that Intelligence had picked them up. They could not say why at the time, but Bohn eventually sought out the answer. "Apparently when the armorers opened each of those shells, they found no explosive charge. They were as clean as a whistle and just as harmless.
Empty? Not all of them! One contained a carefully rolled piece of paper. On it was a scrawl in Czech. The Intelligence people scoured our base for a man who could read Czech Eventually they found one to decipher the note. It set us marveling. Translated, the note read:

*"This is all we can do for you now...

Using Jewish slave labor is never a good idea."

A Nanton boy ... Thx Ramey H! How lucky SamKat is for his wonderful friends!


This makes one look at life differently!
A Nanton Boy
What a amazing fellow!
I hope you will take a few minutes to watch the following video of Chris Koch from Nanton, Alberta.
He spends his spring, summer and fall working on our  farm in Torquay Saskatchewan.
Chris runs the planter & sprayer in the spring, and then a combine in the fall.
During the winter he does some public speaking with a theme call "If I Can". 
A feature video was recently done on Chris's life and farming.   This video was recently shown on the Oprah Winfrey show.
I'm sure you will enjoy his story
- if you have kids show it to them.

Irish blessing for us all! ... Thx Clay V!


As the piece starts, the pictures of Ireland are amazing, but wait until you get to the spoken part. It's beautiful, and you don't have to be Irish to enjoy it!
