Welcome

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.

Jewish Cab Driver ... Thx Lyle S!

A clearly inebriated woman, stark naked, jumped into
a taxi in New York City and laid down on the back seat.
 
The cab driver, an old Jewish gentleman, opened his
eyes wide and stared at the woman. He made no attempt to start the cab.
The woman glared back at him and said, "What's wrong with you, honey? - Haven't you ever seen
a naked woman before?"
 The old Jewish driver answered, "Let me tell you
sumsing, lady  I vasn't staring at you like you tink; det vould not be proper vair I come from."
 The drunk woman giggled and responded, "Well, if
you're not staring at my boobs or ass, sweetie, what are you doing then?"
He paused a moment, then told her..."Vell, M'am,
I am looking and I am looking, and I am tinking to myself,'Vair in da hell is dis lady keeping de money to
pay for dis ride?

 I KNEW IT !!!!

Brains of elderly are slow because they know so much....

By Sarah Knapton, Science Correspondent

Older people do not decline mentally with age, it just takes them longer to recall facts because they have more information in their brains, scientists believe.  Much like a computer struggles as the hard drive gets full up, so to do humans take longer to access information, it has been  suggested.

Researchers say this slowing down it is not the same as cognitive decline.  The human brain works slower in old age,” said Dr. Michael Ramscar, “but only because we have stored more information over time. The brains of older people do not get weak. On the contrary, they simply know more.”

Also, older people often go to another room to get something and when they get there, they stand there wondering what they came for.  It is NOT a memory problem, it is nature's way of making older people do more exercise.

SO THERE!! We Are All Brilliant!
