At the church baptism service yesterday, our pastor said to the baptism candidates, “You are not making a commitment to a set of ideas, or to a group, or to a party. You are committing yourself to a Person.”
When I married my husband, I made a commitment to him, a person. I was not…
I’ve heard this many times, it’s still funny!
A Minneapolis couple decided to go to Florida to thaw out during a particularly icy winter. They planned to stay at the same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier. Because of hectic schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their travel schedules. So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday, with his wife flying down the following day.
It’s interesting how a slower economy effects everything.
Recycled paper is the biggest export by volume from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. It is bought mainly by paper mills in China and made into packaging used to box up goods for exports. (Los Angeles Business Journal, November 10, 2008)

Daniel and his friends knew that they were chosen to eventually be leaders in Babylon. Out of all the cream of the crop from Judah, some would get the honored positions while others may end up in mere middle management as some department head.
Did Daniel and his friends try to get to the top by playing their cards right with the chief official?
I picked the book of Daniel for my study.
I was going to skip Chapter one because I have studied Chapter one so many times. But each time I read the Word of God, it changes me in a different way.
I am glad I read Chapter one. I’ve been on Chapter one for two days now.
I’ve read many of Rex Stout‘s Nero Wolfe series.
I got this book from the library, Her Forbidden Knight, mistakenly thinking that it was part of the Nero Wolfe detective series.
This turned out to be a cute romance, set in New York back in the days when telegrams existed, chivalry existed, and handshakes after a date existed. It’s an old-fashion story where men protect the honor of a woman, and the woman wants to be protected.
This was a press conference held in Santa Ana last Friday. Well said and well represented.

It makes me sad seeing what people has become, what our country has become. We don’t need to worry about Al Qaeda; we are our own worst enemies.
Did the main media cover this?
Every year we hear of fires in the Southern Cal areas due to the warm and gusty Santa Ana winds.
My dad’s house at the foothills of Pasadena have seen fires close by in the San Gabriel mountains, but never close enough to have to evacuate.
This year, it came close within about 5 miles of Walnut.
These books are too addicting.
I promise I am not going to read the next one. It’s keeping me up at night.
This is the next in the series after Ender’s Shadow. Instead of battling aliens in space, the genius kids are now back on Earth, fighting the evil schemer whose one ambition is to rule the world. Such an original theme…
I showed Amy my yearbook dated 1972.
“Look at these 2 people. They were friends of mine.”
“They look like twins, except one has long hair and one has short hair.”
“Yeah. The one with short hair is a boy.”
“Aren’t they both boys?”
“No. I thought they both look like girls. But the one with short hair is a boy.”
