Pete Rose is Banished, but A-Rod and Braun still play.
It's enough to make you think MLB is just as goofy as the IFB.

Few computers are designed to use a Celeron chip. Left-over parts are cobbled together to make most Celeron chip computers.

Talked with a high school friend yesterday who shared with me that when she got married she and her husband were rebellious and out of God's will. A few months later a sermon changed both their attitudes and direction. And the sermon was preached by............Dr. Jack Hyles.

If I were a pastor (if the desire to preach is the call to preach, I'm called, brother!), before inviting ANY evangelist to my church I would ask him three questions:
1. Do you participate in the soul winning visitation program at your home church and have you personally had people saved, baptized and join your home church?
2. Have you witnessed to your neighbors? Do they know you are a Christian?
3. Do you purposefully preach in such a way that you cause children and young people to doubt their salvation and make new decisions so you can boast about having more people saved in your meetings?
If the answer to the first two questions was no or the answer to the last question was yes, I would NOT invite that evangelist to my church ever!

I was picking up kids for the Neighborhood Bible Study when my car broke down. It wouldn't start. We tried jumping it with no results. A Mexican mechanic hit the battery a few times with a screwdriver, twisted the cables, and it works fine. What can I say, other than "Praise the Lord!"

When you see first hand how differently most people live in a poor country like Mexico, it gives you a little different perspective on things. Many of these Mexicans can repair a car with a screwdriver and pliers because they 'have to'. When you are dirt poor you don't call a tow truck and ask a repair shop how much it is going to cost. You just find someone that can get it going again.
Was in Tucson a few years ago with a guy who grew up on the mission field in Peru. We had the alternator go out on the car and he offered to fix it. He didn't mean going to a parts store and getting another one and replacing the first one which is what most of us would do. He meant taking it apart and rebuilding it on the spot.

This is sooo true. We worked with the extremely poor. I mean one room adobe huts, dirt floors and turned over buckets for chairs. I loved it! My motto became: If you don't have a hammer, use a rock! I was so impressed with how resourceful people with so little were! Some of the smartest people I ever met!

Balaam and Rebecca, You're both right. I am amazed at the intelligence of the Mexican people. We Americans are wasteful because we can afford to be. Mexicans are smart because they have to be. The Gringos down here admire the Mexicans; we don't look down on them.

Brand now touchpad tablets for $53.70 US at WalMart.
As Nancy and I were entering the supermarket this morning, we could hear pigs squealing from the slaughter house across the street. When we came out, what was left of them was hanging on hooks.

I am excited about college football! Personally, I can't see anybody hanging with Alabama although I am not a big SEC fan. Hope I am wrong but Alabama is my prediction to be #1 this year. Maybe Ohio State!

Balaam, I also pick Alabama. However, my favorite team is Air Force.
