Pardon me, but do you have "Levi" Jeans?

jk.

Cheryl, I love the question, too, and may start using it. Fun.

Randy, be sure to let us know which art piece is based on the wrap!

Blessings!

Ear muffs and scarfs are helpful for those arctic blasts, too! Oh, and grow a beard. I'm thinking Disney must have some magical ear muffs around somewhere, eh?

Blessings from the Cold Miser (whatever I touch seems to freeze up in my clutch... I'm too much!)

Randy No ear muffs. I want to die without ear muff hair ... and no beard. No thank you. I refuse to drive to Disney unless I am actually going to play in the parks. Which I won't be doing as long as it is freezing.

wah!

Hmmm. "Stop It!" Therapy for the masses... I wonder if that's available as a pill? Or "Shazaam" Therapy!

LOL.

I'll stand with arms high and heart abandoned!
In awe of the One who gave it all!
I'll stand, my soul, LORD, to You surrendered!
All I am is Yours!

--- This chorus went though my mind viewing this post, so I figured I'd pass it on...

Love it!

I believe my best friend, a man I am not married to, should be able to visit me in intensive care, as well. This is a common-to-man issue.

Interesting thoughts, Randy, on the tax-thing and all. I'll need to process that a bit...

Randy Feel free to add your thoughts post processing. I would be interested to know what they are.

If I don't marry, I would like my social security benefits, that I have paid for my entire life, to go toward my nieces, or their children's, college funds.

I used to have a Brittany Spaniel... not too large a dog, but not a punter, either. Very obedient and very loyal...

1. Grateful to have had lunch w/a Pastor Friend.
2. Grateful we're having a worship/ communion service for men only tonight!
3. Grateful that the Bible doesn't change even when I want it to.
4. Grateful to live in a country that provides the right to be wrong.
5. Grateful for Indian Summer (it's been overcast and drizzly through the warmness up here).

ummmmm....
6. Grateful for my MacBookPro.
7. Grateful I don't have a home phone for telemarketer's to always call on.
8. Grateful for Panera Bread and Starbucks.
9. Grateful for a job which meets most of my bills.
10. Grateful to serve a living Savior, Who is in the world, today!

in Pondering “Change” and The Future on ETC: Everyday Thoughts Collected
J Edwin Orr http://www.jedwinorr.com/) is a man I have never met, but have heard several times.

He tracked and traced revivals throughout the past couple hundred years, and it seems he would be onboard with this generational/ 100 year theme. Some good listens on this site (he died in the 1980's). My favorite is about the WELSH revival, especially it's beginning.

I know, I know, it's a LITTLE off topic, but since it jumped into my mind, I thought I should share!

Blessings!

in Doing My Part - McCain/Palin Bumper Sticker on ETC: Everyday Thoughts Collected
Although most know exactly who I'm voting for, I don't feel any peace about sticking it on my car, or lawn for that matter. I've actually had more opportunities this election season to talk to others about Christ, than usual; but that's likely unrelated and solely based on my walk with Jesus...

"SARCASM" Just one of the many services I offer : is one of my fav bumper stickers, although I don't have it on my car, either.

I have a small 'ichthus fish' and a 'descending dove' on the back of my car, and that's about it! These remind me to drive like a normal person in my car, instead of an 'ambulance driver.'

Whenever there's a Harvest Crusade w/Greg Laurie coming up, I put a sticker on the bumper or glass for that (but those are made to be removable w/o the pain of scrape, scrape, scrape to get it off.

Blessings!

I suppose I'm not as surprised as I briefly thought I was.

It's so sad. I truly love my gay-identified friends and think they at least appreciate me.

It's a shame there's so many 'phobics' on both sides. I wish the Holy Spirit would flood over my heart to give me better love and understanding, and flood over the nation and the world revealing the love of God displayed through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

:::sigh:::

Along with Chery, and I know you believe, too, Randy; I'm very sory for Mr/s Nunez and Crain and the rest.

Even so,
Come quickly Lord Jesus,
Blessings!

You know, Randy, I dream of a day when chickens can cross the road without their motives being questioned!

Oh, wait. No I don't. Oh well.

Thanks for the smile!

Randy I respect the chicken's right to self-determine its own path But every chicken must ask itself if it is crossing over toward righteousness or simply stepping out in front of a bus headed down the highway to hell.

Just sayin' ... and jokin'

in Stunning Defeat for Anti-Marriage Resolution in Ft. Lauderdale on ETC: Everyday Thoughts Collected
I was feeling a little creeped out that they kept gloating too. OK, so that's a little strong of a word, but I really don't feel the love of Jesus.

At any rate. Yup, Mensley and Brady sum it up nicely.

Blessings!

Randy Well now Chas... you go and do what they did. :) You don't know that they are "gloating." That's why I asked an open ended question and not judge their motivations.

Thanks for posting, Randy! Now that I'm catching up on my stuff I was finally able to view this one roaming the web.

Good points. Don' t know that there's many value or moral voters out there, anymore. Seems we're all looking out for number one!

Wow, Randy. I really like this one! Perhaps b/c it's got some straight lines in it???

The Spirit rising over a somewhat familiar new world, flooding it with deep passionate reds and merciful greens/ yellows and the deep blues of His love. I feel the reflection of Jesus.

:-) Blessings!

Thanks for the post, Randy! That was an educational 15-20 minutes I wish many more would take!

I'm so disappointed in what I read, even of conservatives (albeit likely from MSM) and the leanings toward a socialist takeover of our economy! If we are free trade, then de-regulate and let free-trade figure out how to solve this mess!

Randy I think, unfortunately, this wake up call will be a crash economics lesson just like the Presidential races since 2000 and Supreme Court Appointments have been a crash course in Civics.

in Conservative Prude & Mr. 900 on ETC: Everyday Thoughts Collected
SOME people are so desperate for attention they'll bare their souls to the world.

SOME people had such poor upbringing they have no clue what a boundary is.

SOME people just look for a sympathetic ear.

SOME people are so annoying we'd do anything to avoid them.

I'm glad you didn't avoid him. Perhaps he needs Jesus, and although the VS branding is quite annoying (I've found that the pants don't rise high enough on the female's backside). Perhaps a random comment about God's love for Mr. 900 would cause him to break down publicly in a pool of Spirit led tears and repentance sparking revival (um, real revival) across Florida and up the coast and around the world......

Perhaps I'm just blinded by the glare from the ever-so-white legs.

Blessings!
ChaplainChas.

PS: Let us know if you interact w/Mr. 900 again!
