The Jesus Meme

Lynn, from Spilling Ink In Public, allowed me to “tag” myself with the Jesus meme, on which she posted and made some pretty good observations. The point of the meme is to post five things that I dig about Jesus, so here goes:
1. He shares my burdens and my grief. I Pet. 5:7 – “Casting [...]

I’m in serious danger of committing assault with a deadly smart-mouth, so I thought I would share with you, instead of the individual I should share this with.
Thanks to Kim, at Hiraeth, I found this video clip of a DUI stop which I found so hilarious, I almost wet my pants:

No, [...]

Well, it was as I suspected. This is the corporate response:
“Thank you for taking the time to share your comments with us regarding the selection at our J.Jill retail stores. Please be assured that it was not our intent to slight any of our customers with our product selection. We do offer a service that [...]

My 300th Post

WHOO-HOO!! 300!! (Um, wait – that means I’ve spent how much time blogging that I can never get back???)

Weekend Remnants

Benjamin asks some good existential questions. He sometimes gets the answers wrong, but he’s asking the right questions. The most recent one (June 17) involves adventures in decorating. I feel his pain, although I’m doing my decorating solo. I’m almost there but not quite. I have some really nice things in my place, but I [...]

Time Flies

Wow. I just realized it had been over a week since I posted anything. I hate when that happens!

Pricks

There are days when I really miss the good ole days of the King James Version. A conversion the apostle Paul had in his conversion experience is set forth in the book of Acts (in the New Testament) like so:
