Welcome

Welcome to my blog http://www.skegley.blogspot.com/ . CAVEAT LECTOR- Let the reader beware. This is a Christian Conservative blog. It is not meant to offend anyone.

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.

Link worth typing in- Frank Hunter's paintings of 50 years

Thanks Frank!




Frank Hunter is a Portsmouth Ohio (PHS 1955) artist who never forgets his roots.  He has traveled a bit in his experiences and brings us site many of us have not been to, but should enjoy.  All Portsmouth people must be proud of Frank Hunter, our artist friend.  He includes the Park Shoppe, a part of Mound Park and the Portsmouth train station in this wonderful group of slides.

I love your paintings, Frank. You have a wonderful talent to put your sites and
memories on canvas or paper. I appreciate your sharing them.

TOP- New Political Party from my good friend, Dan Baird

This is good, Dan and I like the idea of voting incumbents out unless they are voting as representatives of the people. As a Kool-Aid guy I would prefer the name Teed-Off Party or TOP.




Thomas Jefferson said: "That government is best which governs less." The elitists think they know better how to spend our money but the record shows that they DON'T! We have taxes out the gazoo and the idiots in Washington want more!



How sad. I love the Tea Party group; however a third party just cannot make it. I was not born into the Republican party although my dad had been repub before Roosevelt, whom most all of us thought was a hero. Frankilin led us well throughout most of WWII, along with Churchill of England. He was an orator who knew what America was about contrarily to this guy, who may be an orator, but has no idea about America. Even FDR wanted to turn America into a kingdom or a fifedom.  We are being largely sold down the river by this o, his czars, and the elitists in congress.



I can easily vote for most republicans and nearly NO democ rats, who little o bought off for his health care bill. There are so many black Americans who were much more qualified for this PUSA job, but the black group has to come back to those of us who may not have marched, but voted in civil Rights and have highly supported those among us who work honestly for a living and pay their (ugh) taxes whether they are black, white, or otherwise a good American.

Thanks to my ISP Time Warner RoadRunner- I'm back!

I caused most of my problems by doing a thing on my computer that I should not have.  No, it wasn't a naughty thing.  It was innocent, but ignorant. 

My special gratitiude to those who may come back and visit!

To: eyes2see@yahoo.com























There was

a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind.



She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend.



He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend,



'If I could only see the world, I will marry you.'





One day,

someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages

came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.



He asked

her,'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' The

girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The

sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected

that.. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life

led her to refuse to marry him.



Her

boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to her

saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before

they were yours, they were mine.'



This is

how the human brain often works when our status changes.

Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who

was always by their side in the most painful situations.



Life Is a

Gift



Today

before you say an unkind word -



Think of someone who can't speak.



Before

you complain about the taste of your food -



Think of someone who has nothing to eat.



Before

you complain about your husband or wife -



Think of someone who's crying out to GOD for a companion.



Today

before you complain about life -



Think of someone who went too early to the grave.



Before

whining about the distance you drive



Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.



And when

you are tired and complain about your job -



Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.



And when

depressing thoughts seem to get you down -



Put a smile on your face and think: you're alive and still around.

==========================

I PRAY

THIS MOVES AROUND



THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE...









May your troubles be less, may your blessings be more, and

may nothing but happiness come through your door.



God's Blessings be with you always
