Any of you ever get the blahs?If so, what do you do about them? What do you advise? I need help. I've got the blahs. Big time. I mean, they're so bad I'm thinking about maybe even going back to college for about the 4th or 5th time and taking up a new, as in about [...]
Christianity should shine through us
like sunshine through a pane of glass. We should make it shine so clearly
that people will say, "What a beautiful day" not "What a beautiful pane of
glass"I've mentioned before that I get a daily morning email from a Christian service out of Colorado (one of my favorite states [...]
[Note: I didn't write this - the author is unknown - but sure wish I had because I guarantee it is one of the most hilarious pieces of writing I've seen in a long time. And, see if you can think of some more fundamental rules for the Blues.

[Note: We arrived home safe and sound last night about 11:15 p.m. after a very long, but fun (really!) road trip of 1,600 miles from Durango, Colorado.
