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.

The Quiet Caddie ... Thx Lyle S!

The Quiet Caddie

It was back in the 70's and a soon-to-be prominent (and rather arrogant) golfer (Ray Floyd) was playing at  Augusta in his first Masters.
Back then the players could not bring their own caddies. 
They had to use one of the locals.
Floyd told the Caddie Master he wanted a big fellow who could handle his bag, but who also would keep quiet, no advice needed.
The caddie who was assigned Floyd said, "Hello Mr. Floyd."
Floyd said "Hello." And followed with:  "That's the last I want to hear from you unless I ask you a question."
Everything went well until the 10th hole when Floyd pushed his drive into the right trees on the par 4. After surveying the scene, he said out loud,
"I'm going to hit a low fade out through that opening to carry and land mid green and then roll over the crest down near the hole."
Surprisingly he pulled it off exactly and turned to his caddy and said, "How's that?"
The caddie spoke for the first time and said, "That wasn't your ball."
 … You gotta love it !
