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.

High Notes 04-07-2016 – various quotes
 
     Desmond Tutu said, “When the white man came to Africa, they had the Bible and we had the land.  They said ‘Let us pray.’  We closed our eyes.  When we opened them, we had the Bible and they had the land.”
      Howard Hughes said:  “I’m not a paranoid deranged millionaire. Doggone it, I’m a billionaire.”
     Jean Kerr said:  “The only reason they say ‘Women and children first’ is to test the strength of the lifeboats.”
      Jeff Foxworthy said:  “You know you’re a redneck if your home has wheels and your car doesn’t.”
     Harrison Ford said:  “Wood burns faster when you have to cut it yourself.”
      Jimmy Durante said:  “Home cooking… where many a man thinks his wife is.”
      Robert Benchley said:  “I have kleptomania, but when it gets bad, I take something for it!”
     I gleaned these from an email from someone who gleaned them from the internet!
     Henry B. McKee, was a one-legged barber, who had a shop at the rear of The Mound Park Pharmacy, on Grant Street.  He’d proudly rap on his artificial leg, which made a hollow wooden sound.  What I’m wondering is, why would a one-legged man choose a profession which demanded standing during working hours?
     Mr. McKee was one fine man though, with a good sense of humor, and he and his wife had a talking parrot at home, which I could visit sometimes when I passed their daily newspaper.  The McKee’s lived in a small cottage just the second door east of Hutchins on Grant.  
     Speaking of parrots, Lowell (Mouse) McLaughlin, turned 80-years young recently and his wife and family held a small gathering of friends at the Market Street Café.  A nice affair, and Mouse spoke and re-told his parrot story involving Nell Harry, who kept a big green talking parrot, named Polly, in her kitchen.  Mouse was a meter reader for Columbia Gas for many years, and said he knocked on the rear door of the Vinton Avenue Harry home, and he heard “Who is it?”  He forgot about the parrot, and when nobody came to the door, he knocked again, and again, getting the same result.  “Finally I peeked into the kitchen through a small window, and saw the bird!” 
     Come to think of it, I believe the Mckee’s parrot was also named Polly!
     Do you remember the store called Candyland, on the corner of Second and Market Street?  They kept a talking Myna bird in a cage in the store.

We the People Stimulus Package ... Thx good friend, Tom Q!


SamKat Political Rant 4/4/2016

Christian Conservative SamKat's thoughts for whatever they may be worth.

Fox News with Cris Wallace and Brett Baer throw fast balls while many others throw fat balls for hitting out of the park by their supported ones, per Anderson Cooper, and most of the left wing ilk.  Republican Big's went after Trump early on when they became aware of the anger against all long-'serving' supposed representatives holding congressional offices too long without bothering to serve us the people.

Yesterday, The RNC Chairman Reice Prentice (Sp) acquitted his party very well in his coolness as a leader, standing up to Chris's questioning extremely well.  The RNC convention will be somewhat 'circified' (not in the dictionary) and the Cleveland police will have a tough time quieting George Soros' Wallstreet occupier crowd there, who still want our ex- Secretary of State and Crook-in-Chief, Hillary, to continue the muslim president's acts in the oval office.  As Joe Friday repeatedly said: "Just the facts".  and as Gary Burbank's Earl Pitts wisely espoused "Wake up Amurica!", so must this 83 year old citizen repeat to all American voters. KISMIF or Keep it simple, make it fun.  Give us a right winged Congress and POTUS in 2016.  There is a big mess in America and it will require a lot of honest work to clean up.  I have switched to Cruz currently, but I can still vote for Trump if he can learn to cool his impetuosity, which, at 68 years old, he should have learned by now.
