Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †
There was seldom a day that the arrival of the mail didn’t bring magazines to our house. I suppose our parents subscribed to at least twenty or twenty-five — farm magazines, news magazines, church magazines, periodicals like the Reader’s Digest and Saturday Evening Post, and “the world out there” magazines like Arizona Highways, Naval Proceedings, and the National Geographic.
Most of the farm periodicals had pages reserved for the reading skills and interests of the young people on the farm. On those pages there would also be ads for items like this stamp album which was ordered for me when I was about eleven or twelve.
The penciled-in price in the front of the book indicates the 125-page hardcover album cost $1.10. Tucked within its pages is one of the 
envelopes in which I received a batch of 12-20 stamps every couple of weeks (which cost 10 cents per envelope). This single envelope still has 15 stamps from the Argentine Republic that never got pasted in place (more…)

Every single move our President takes is determined by political winds…..
Wow. Just wow. The speech by President Obama this afternoon was just staggeringly unreal. Bizzarro World Type pretzel contortions. The speech was short, but in a surprising twist Obama announced he will seek congressional authority on attacking Syria even though he believes he has the authority to go ahead with strike. (this really is must watch stuff – even if you find yourself challenged to stick with it through the absurd nature of what you are bearing witness to)
I checked Jack Cashill’s Website earlier today, and found this:
“Ebook available around September 1”
Curious, I went to Amazon.com and, sure enough, the EBook is available TODAY!
The book:
There has been a lot of discussion that the President hasn’t even spoken to Congress on Syria, let alone brought the matter to Congress for approval, as is required by the Constitution. Remember this tweet from Ted Cruz?
Excellent News from John Fund at National Review Online:
This hasn’t been a good week for radical filmmaker Michael Moore. The Hollywood Reporter revealed that he recently lost a re-election bid for his position as a governor on the Academy Award’s documentary board.
I don’t know about you, but any time it hasn’t been a good week for Michael Moore, it becomes a better week for me.

Stop me when you have heard this before. A 22-year old white guy was riding his bike home from work, minding his own business, when a 16-year-old thug ran up to him and started stabbing him repea…….
CLEARWATER, Fla. – Clearwater Police announced the arrest of 16-year-old Mychal King on Thursday. He is accused in the January murder of Jason Taylor Paul, the city’s first homicide of 2013.
Police said King admitted to killing Paul for no reason other than he had a hard day with his family that night of January 6, and “just wanted to kill the first person he saw.”
Police say 22-year-old Jason Taylor Paul was stabbed multiple times while riding his bike home from work late.
Jason’s parents, John and Renee Langfritz had been distraught since the news of Paul’s death, and desperate for closure, even offering a $10,000 reward for information. (more…)
