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. Please feel free to ignore this blog, but also feel free to browse and comment on my posts! You may also scroll down to respond to any post.

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.

Prayer Thx Sarah and Jay R

The Door
 
 





One Door
Closes.. Another Opens

Revelations 3:8

When God leads you to the edge of the
cliff, trust Him fully and let go, only 1 of 2
things will happen, either He'll catch you when
you fall, or He'll teach you how to fly! 'The
power of one sentence! God is going to shift
things around for you today and let things work
in your favor. If you believe, send it. If you
don't believe, delete it. God closes doors no
man can open & God opens doors no man can
close...

When
you reach the end of your
rope
You
will find the hem of his
garment..
I'm
not breaking this one



This is ABSOLUTELY
beautiful...





I would rather live
my life as if there is a God,

And die to find out
there isn't, than live my life

As if there isn't,
and die to find out there is.

Prayer."
Just repeat this
prayer and see how God moves!!



"Lord, I love you
and I need you,
Come into my heart,
and bless me,
My
family, my home, my
finances,
And all of my
friends,
In
Jesus' name.
Amen."

Heteronyms ... Thx Ramey H!


Heteronyms... this is brilliant
 
 
Homographs are words of like spelling but with more than one meaning.
A homograph that is also pronounced differently is a heteronym.
 
      
You think English is easy?
 
I think a retired English teacher was bored...THIS IS GREAT!
 
 
Read all the way to the end...
 
This took a lot of work to put together! 
 
  
 
1) The bandage was wound around the wound.
 
2) The farm was used to produce produce.
 
3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.
 
4) We must polish the Polish furniture..
 
5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.
 
6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert..
 
7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present. 
 
8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.
 
9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.
 
10) I did not object to the object. 
 
11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.
 
12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.
 
13) They were too close to the door to close it.
 
14) The buck does funny things when the does are present.  
 
15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.
 
16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.
 
17) The wind was too strong for me to wind the sail.
 
18) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear..
 
19) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.
 
20) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?
 
 
Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France . Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
 
And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth, beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?
 
If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell?
 
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.
 
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.
 
PS. - Why doesn't 'Buick' rhyme with 'quick'?
 
 
You lovers of the English language might enjoy this.
 
There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is 'UP.'
 
It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?
 
At a meeting, why does a topic come UP?
 
Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report?
 
We call UP our friends.
 
And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver; we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen.
 
We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car.
 
At other times the little word has real special meaning.
 
People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses.
 
To be dressed is one thing, but to be dressed UP is special.
 
A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP.
 
We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.
 
We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP!
 
To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look the word UP in the dictionary.
 
In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions.
 
If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used.
 
It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more.
 
When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP.
 
When the sun comes out we say it is clearing UP.
 
When it rains, it wets the earth and often messes things UP.
 
When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP.
 
One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP,
 
for now my time is UP,
 
so.......it is time to shut UP!
 
Now it's UP to you what you do with this email.

Thx Paul C for Putin's speech reminder on the day of little o's speech tonight ... SamKat

Paul Claxton,

Your reminder of Putin's speech is oportune.  You can bet that tonight's state of the union speech will be mostly about Barack Hussein obama than about America.  How I long for AMERICANS to stand up and speak for our country which our killed and permanently wounded warriors fought and died for.

Please bring Benghazi up for impeachment because of  the muslim putus we have.  George soros will be so proud of the glib o, tonight!

SamKat aka Sam Kegley

Vladimir Putin's short speech to the Russian Parliament well received (Not by Muslim readers of same) ... Thx Paul C!


 Valdimir Putin's Shortest Speech
  
Here is a very short speech by Putin. What do you think of it?


Putin’s Speech  August  04, 2013
This is one time our elected leaders should pay attention to the advice of Vladimir Putin....

How scary is  that?

On August 04, 2013, Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, addressed the Duma,
(Russian Parliament), and gave a speech about the tensions with minorities in Russia:   
"In Russia live like Russians.

Any minority, from anywhere, if it wants to live in Russia, to work and eat in Russia, should speak Russian, and should respect the Russian laws.

If they prefer Sharia Law, and live the life of Muslim's then we advise them to go to those places where that's the state law.

Russia does not need Muslim minorities. Minorities need Russia, and we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell 'discrimination'.

We will not tolerate disrespect of our Russian culture.

We better learn from the suicides of America, England, Holland and France, if we are to survive as a nation.

The muslims are taking over those countries and they will not take over Russia.

The Russian customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of culture or the primitive ways of Sharia Law and Muslims.

When this honorable legislative body thinks of creating new laws, it should have in mind the Russian national interest first, observing that the Muslims Minorities Are Not Russians."

The politicians in the Duma gave Putin a five minute standing ovation.

If you keep this to yourself, you are part of the problem!

It is a sad day when a Communist makes more sense than our Government........ but here it is!!!!

Whatch for "Under observation" status if in hospital ...

 
There is a commercial at the beginning but it is short and the information afterward is more than worth it.


 
                                For all us on Medicare to have something else to worry about!

NBC News report.........very important to those on Medicare.   Please share w/ others.

If you go to the hospital you need to check the small print before you sign any papers.

Ben Stein- o and h ... and no io ... Thanks Roy, Linda O and George K!



Facts are facts and Ben Stein has the facts for you.
 
 
 


 
A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."

Ben Stein’s New Article

WE'VE FIGURED HIM OUT!
By Ben Stein
Why was President Barack Obama in such a hurry to get his socialized medicine bill passed? Because he and his cunning circle realize some basic truths:
 
The American people in their unimaginable kindness and trust voted for a pig in a poke in 2008. (Pig in a poke means: an offering or deal that is foolishly accepted without being examined first. A poke means sack.)
 
They wanted so much to believe Barack Obama was somehow better and different from other ultra-leftists that they simply took him on faith.
 
They ignored his anti-white writings in his books.
 
They ignored his quiet acceptance of hysterical anti-American diatribes by his minister, Jeremiah Wright.

They ignored his refusal to explain years at a time of his life as a student.
 
They ignored his ultra-left record as a "community organizer," Illinois state legislator, and Senator.
 
The American people ignored his total zero of an academic record as a student and teacher, his complete lack of scholarship when he was being touted as a scholar.
 
Now, the American people are starting to wake up to the truth. Barack Obama is a super likeable, super leftist, and not a fan of this country.
 
The American people have already awakened to the truth that the stimulus bill -- a great idea in theory -- was really an immense bribe to Democrat interest groups, and in no way helped ALL Americans.
 
The American people already know that Mr. Obama's plan to lower health costs while expanding coverage and bureaucracy is a myth, a promise of something that never was and never can be -- "a bureaucracy lowering costs in a free society." Either the costs go up or the free society goes away... an historical truth.
 
Now, we face a devastating loss of freedom at home in health care. It will be joined by controls on our lives to "protect us" from global warming, itself largely a fraud, if believed to be caused by man.
 
Hillary has also signed on to a Small Firearms Treaty at the U.N.  This is a back door gun control move. If this is approved by the Senate and a 2nd Amendment majority doesn't exist in the Senate now. It will supersede all U.S. Law and the 2nd Amendment. All citizen possession will be eliminated through confiscation. Just Like Great Britain and Australia .
 
Mr. Obama knows Americans are getting wise and will stop him if he delays at all in taking away our freedoms. There is his urgency and our opportunity. Once freedom is lost, America is lost. Wake up, beloved America .

Ben Stein is a writer, economist, and lawyer. He writes "Ben Stein's Diary," for every issue of The American Spectator.


You must, as an American, FORWARD this, or you will wake up one morning and your freedoms will be GONE: No longer there!
