This morning I was reading in Acts, when I ran across a story in chapter 14 that caught my attention. In the story Paul and Barnabas “roll into” Lystra and there they find a man who has been crippled since birth. Paul “looking at him intently” realized that this man can be healed and commands [...]
My thoughts about the Eagles (currently 2-2) under new Head Coach Larry Fedora: I love coach Fedora’s energy and passion! While inconsistent at times, the offense can put points on the board. We are loaded at the skilled positions on the offensive side of the ball. I was surprised we beat Ark. State and surprised [...]
Here are the latest albums that I’ve purchased for my Zune.

My First 100 Friends on Facebook!
Posted: September 8, 2008 in Culture, Friends & Family, TechnologyI know 100 friends on Facebook is not a big deal to you guys who have 500 fb friends, but it’s significant for me. First of all I’d like to thank all of the “friends” who made this possible. If it were not for you I’d be virtually friendless, like those other online losers who [...]
