Hi, Matt, from a lifelong Christian - glad you found your way (here and in other ways) and looking forward to reading your posts. Btw, I'm Jim.

Heard from the doc. He's not concerned with the clots because they are small and not in the pelvic area. As long as Randy stays on his Warfarin and wears his compression socks things should be fine.

Good to hear, thanks for the updates and will continue praying for Randy and for you.

Well, ham tomorrow, of course but tonight it'll be a porterhouse, baked potato plus dinner rolls. Like the mac-n-cheese from scratch better, my kids used to like that weird orange type you get from the box.

Well, how is she? Any updates?

Will keep praying just in case , , ,

Hiya, Saved, seen you at the other site just today - I will pray for her to fully recover - those post-op infections are common but can be problematic.

Oh, I dout he will be the nominee, for reasons others here have already stated - his marriage/infidelity record is a big turn-off, as is his behaviour on that reality tv show he used to be on. But he can seem to suceed at anything he puts his mind to, and unlike Obama, he's a self-starter> I'd vote for him or anyone else in a heartbeat over that loser we've got as president now.

I don't drive quite that far, Annie, but my church is 35 miles aways. In a rural area in a secular state, it's the closest Baptist church - but I am happy with it.

I'm afraid you're right, John and Jerry - this is unbelievable to think one homosexual judge can undermine seven million people. I think SCOTUS is going to reverse this ruling before all's said and done, but it should've never occured in the first place. This country could really use some prayers right now, many of them.

I see this cult is still going strong. Phelps and his bunch will do just about anything to get their names in the news, protesting military funerals because of homosexuality makes NO sense at all, but then that may be the point. I've wondered before how they'd think if Fred Phelp's funeral was protested - it's tasteless and tacky to do what they do, even if it's constitutional.

I usually wear a cross around my neck, so I voted for that option. I'd like to think I advertise my faith by words and actions as well.

difficult question to answer - all four are good and have all the strong points . . . guess I'll go with the one I read the most often, and that'd have to be Mark. Clear and concise.

I think the whole thing backfired on him, he'd have done it a year ago if he was actually interested in other ideas. I rue the day he became POTUS even though I didn't vote for him.

Why don't you ask some of your neighbors? They've prOBably already had to deal with this rather odd prOBlem of yours.

This is going to sound crazy, but my oldest son picked a skunk up by the tail and tossed it in a field and it ran away. If you corner it and grab it's tail really quick it cannot spray. The muscles on its backside cannot flex to allow it to spray. He met me at the driveway one night holding a live skunk by the tail as proof. We have chickens and it was trying to get to them. If the skunk is cornered it does not turn around. We sicked our dogs on one, one time and all we did was wind up with a stinky dog for several weeks. Tomato juice only works so well.

Good Luck!!

The IRS set-up is unfair, and they have unprecedented and unconstitutional power (and more is given them in the health care bill....) but crashing planes isn't the way to change it!

They just can't resist those search-and-destroy Chicago political tactics, can they? This is certainly unbecoming of a sitting POTUS, and that Dunn woman is just another lefty loon. What are they trying to do, marginalize FOX News? They've already managed to do that to MSNBC and CNN, although that was not intentional. All the WH whining will do here is to make those ratings even higher.

Very interesting article, although I can see why it'd be at odds with the sci-fi community. You know, this should be a pretty obvious point, but I'd never thought of it this way:

There is God and His glorious Heaven and the occupants thereof (Hebrews 12:22-23). There is an innumerable company of angels. There are, first of all, elect angels that did not follow the devil in the fall (1 Timothy 5:21). We know that these angels visit this earth and do God's bidding and minister among men (Gen. 28:12; Psalm 148:2; Matt. 26:53; Heb. 1:4-7). We know a little about these angels from what the Bible tells us, but there is much that we do not know. There are also fallen angels, Satan and his devils, which are active on the earth and possibly in other realms (Eph. 6:12). There is Hell and its occupants. There are the souls of men who have died and gone either to heaven or to hell.

Reason #7,629,336,207,466 NOT to support this bill - socialsim guised as "healthcare". This new parent *help* sounds as voluntary as their plan to give seniors "voluntary" end of life sessions - the bill never says that word, or "optional", anything like that. This bill's evil and needs to be defeated.

I'm still wondering why turning off the lights can cause an infant to suffocate, but then I remember some "expert" said that.

I guess he trusts the other socialists in Congress to write an acceptable bill. Gee, it would be nice if he at least could have an aide give him the highlights of this awful piece of legislation before he hams for the cameras again tonight.

Cool, although I could never do this - severly allergic to insect stings - there ARE a lot of people out here that have been bee-keeping for generations - it's almost a lost art.

Some of them do make a good living at it, come to think of it. Good luck with it.

A lot has changed since the age of chivalry, but the most of the principal virtues are found in the Bible, so, yes.

The MSM is already in a "destroy Jindal" mode - it doesn't matter who it is as long as the individual is a threat to their plans for permanent one-party rule.

For years the federal government has been saying to the states, your not going to get this money unless you do this or that, because of acceptance of the federal government giving the states back their very own money for years the states have had their hands cuffed behind their backs.

I always called it black mail which that is exactly what it is.

By the way, in my signature it tell of our only hope, and its not a mere man.

:Green

Somebody here thought it was a good choice, everyone else thought it wasn't. I'm with the latter group - too expensive, too extensive, too big government for my tastes. Too much pork and not enough programs that would actually create jobs. That thing is going to do far more harm than good.

I voted "sometimes refreshed, sometimes discouraged" because it all depends on the posts I happen to read.

Liberals SHOULD be "more open to disagreement", since they thrive on misery. Go to one of their boards, and you can see just how "tolerant" they really are.

I, as well, am rather disappointed at the Baptist showing. At least Carter left the SBC, and I've never been quite sure of what kind of Baptist Bill Clinton is, all I know is that his wife is still a Methodist.

I wish Barack Hussein Obama would up and join a Baptist church, but he probably won't. TUCC (barf). :roll

And how good are your *convictions* going to do you when the thug outlaws the Bible and the CP? He's already trying to suppress dissidence. That's what totalitarians do.

Greater evil prevailing! Just a moment, we both have read the ending of the Great Book. We know the greater evil will not prevail but we understand well that its going to get very bad, but them again I expect to see our Lord coming at any moment.

And its not an excuse, its a conviction, why support the less evil? For you see, I put all my faith and trust in Jesus, after all for the problems that exist, He is the only answer to the problems that are before each of us and this nation.
