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.

What Causes Arthritis? ... Oh, Oh! Anon Ymous!

WHAT CAUSES ARTHRITIS?
A drunk man who smelled of
beer sat down on a
subway next to a priest.
The man's
tie was stained, his face was plastered
with red lipstick, and
a half-empty
bottle of gin was sticking out of his
torn coat pocket. He
opened his
newspaper and began reading.

After a few minutes the man turned to
the priest and asked, "Say Father, what causes
arthritis?"

The priest replies, "My Son, it's
caused by loose living,
being with cheap, wicked women,
too much alcohol, contempt for your
fellow man,
sleeping around with prostitutes and lack of a
bath."

The drunk muttered in response, "Well, I'll be damned”,
Then returned to
his
paper.

The priest, thinking about what he had said,
nudged the man and
apologized. "I'm
very sorry.
I didn't mean to come on so strong.
How long have you had
arthritis?"

The drunk answered, "I don't have it, Father.
I was just reading here
that the
Pope does."

MORAL: Make sure you understand the question before offering the answer.

Paradise Tanager...mostly found in South America



(I know, "no trees were harmed in the making of this playhouse" ... right ? :-)



At Wat Samphran (
วัดสามพราน) in Nakhon Pathom Province there is a 17 story
building that has a giant dragon climbing to the roof. The head is at the top where
there is a shrine and the tail is on the ground floor. The dragon is hollow and it is
possible to walk up some sections of it.






This house was designed by Rudy Ricciotti. The unique architecture includes a
pool house, which is like a window in the living room where you can enjoy not
only swimming in the water, but the person swimming in it with the effect of the
outdoor landscape which is reflected through the window.

The Grand Canyon Skywalk

The Grand Canyon Skywalk is a transparent horseshoe-shaped cantilever bridge
and tourist attraction in Arizona near the Colorado River on the edge of a side
canyon in the Grand Canyon West area of the main canyon. USGS topographic
maps show the elevation at the Skywalk's location as 4,770 ft (1,450 m) and the
elevation of the Colorado River in the base of the canyon as 1,160 ft (350 m), and
they show that the height of the precisely vertical drop directly under the skywalk
is between 500 ft (150 m) and 800 ft (240 m).

Commissioned and owned by the Hualapai Indian tribe, it was unveiled March 20,
2007, and opened to the general public on March 28, 2007. It is accessed via the
Grand Canyon West Airport terminal or a 120-mile (190 km) drive from Las Vegas ,
which includes a 10-mile (16 km) stretch of dirt road which is currently under
development. The Skywalk is east of Meadview and north of Peach Springs with
Kingman being the closest major city.
