Friday, May 29th, 2009

I just read a thought provoking post at The Babbling Brooks.  It stated some disturbing comparisons.  Obama promised us change.  I think most people don’t have a clue as to just how much change he may have planned.  Even with all he’s changed all ready, too many still don’t see the big picture of where […]

NIMBY Update

Friday, May 29th, 2009

It seems that some people do want Gitmo detainees in their back yard.  Hardin, Montana has a state of the art prison sitting empty since it’s completion two years ago.

For the Micro Traveler

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

How Majestic!

Sunday, May 24th, 2009

O Lord, our Sovereign, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens.  Out of the mouths of babes and infants you have founded a bulwark because of your foes, to silence the enemy and the avenger. When I look at your heavens, the work of your […]
