This week I learned that a colleague had been fired. I hadn't seen him in a while because after the "reorganization" we were split up into different departments and he was in another part of the building. One of his friends told me at breakfast.
I was shocked. "Stu" had been with the...
This Sunday's sermon was not an easy one for Pastor to preach on because it concerned the infamous beauty contest in Esther 2 or as he called it, "The Bachelor, Persian Style." If you recall, King Ahaserus of Persia had just given his wife Queen Vashti the boot because she refused to come...
Yesterday I wrote about the movie "Sunset Limited." Today I'd like to write about another movie that deals with life and death but from a different perspective. In "The Green Mile" John Coffey is facing execution for a crime he did not commit. He is resigned to the fact that he is going to...
Last night I watched the movie "Sunset Limited" with Samuel L. Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones. It's the kind of drama that I wish our community theater would put on. I'd love to be in it even though it was written for guys. Except I don't know which part I'd want to be--Black or White. Well, I...
Well, somehow I don't think Esther is going to be one of the all-time favorite Bible stories in this church. The first chapter, about the drinking party and the deposition of Vashti, didn't go over well with some of the women. They sure aren't going to like chapter two!
Since we finished up...
A very interesting and disturbing sermon today on the Book of Esther. He started out by saying that Esther is considered controversial because it never mentions God, faith, prayer, religion. God is absent, working behind the scenes, and in that respect Esther is more like life as we experience...
Last week, since we have finished the Book of Acts, Pastor took a break and preached from one of the Psalms. Psalm 127 which is about work and family. Now I don't know if it was just coincidence (it was Children's Dedication Sunday) or whether the recent Rush Limbaugh controversy had anything...
Tornado season is definitely off and running. Monday night they blew the sirens because radar indicated rotation in a storm cell several miles west of my town. No tornado touched down, although the sky turned bluish black to the northwest. I suppose they felt better safe than sorry but I was...
WARNING --> May contain rude jokes intended to cheer myself up, if you read on you may have to laugh at your own risk
I never thought I could be friends with someone so fast that to lose that friendship was like having a tooth pulled, sure your numb at the time and it only throbs like a...
Now begins the season of fear. From now until fall, whenever it storms, I will not be able to take an easy breath, especially at night. No matter how rational I am at other times, this is the time when I revert to a primitive, superstitious way of thinking. I cannot help myself.
During the...
Recently the body of a homeless man was found in the bushes outside a church in a nearby city. It was determined that he had frozen to death. Of course it upset the pastor and the other church staff, who felt guilty about not seeing the man's need, like the story of the rich man and Lazarus in...
Dear Beyonce,
I don't know what is wrong with you, honestly. A diva is female version of a hustler? What does that even mean? I don't know. Half the time I can't figure out what you're saying; let alone believe the crap they print about your life. You don't seem like the type that never got...
I have gotten to the point where Lady Chatterley meets her lover, the gamekeeper. And I am starting to feel cheated. This story, which started out with such promise, is turning out to be just another romance novel. Perhaps more sophisticated than the "bodice-rippers" put out by Harlequin et...
By now probably everyone has heard how Rush Limbaugh publicly insulted a young woman. Rush is an ass; there's no question about it. And I don't use the term lightly. In fact, I apologize to all the donkeys, burros, asses and other long-eared equines of the world for lumping him in with them...
REASONS WHY I HATE JAY-Z
In the nineties, there emerged a mysterious rapper. He became famous for inventing words, having a hot wife and having every celebrity iN THE ****ING BOOK on his side. But I beg to dream and differ. I hate this man like poison and here are a few reasons why...

A LIST OF CELEBRITIES I HATE

1. Jay Z
This man is an illiterate fool who will do anything for money. And yet he has all the other rappers on his side. WHY GOD WHY?

These boys are lame and unoriginal. And they...
For the last month or so we've been starting out Sunday night Bible group by telling our life stories. Last night was "Cindy's" turn. (I haven't told mine yet, I'm going last).
Cindy started out by telling where she was born and how many siblings she has, pretty standard stuff. Her family...
One of the things I have wondered about lately is what happened when the Spanish stopped the Aztec sacrifices. I mean, I know what happened historically with Cortes and the conquest of Mexico, but what I want to know is the part the history books don't tell.
The premise behind the Aztec...
Today we finished up the Book of Acts. Paul made it to Rome without causing any more riots and lived happily ever after under guard in a rented house until Nero needed a scapegoat for the big fire. Well, that part isn't in there, it just says he lived there for two years preaching without...
