I don’t really talk about religion with anyone in my life. It makes me more than uncomfortable to talk about God or the Bible. I’d rather give a speech to a crowd while perched nude on a stage...
we are slowly gathering wedding photos from our very creative friends and family who took so many wonderful pictures. i will post more of what i have later, but my sister michelle has already posted some photos she took on...

Dear ____, This is a good thought to set a fence around what we talked about earlier today. I'm so very happy for you, and will continue to be in prayer for you. A Miktam of David. Preserve me, O God, for...
I'd be really interested in seeing this, since I have a limited but growing awareness regarding my [adopted] city's homelessness problem opportunity. I don't know if my schedule will allow it, and I have no information as to the...
Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red...

The headlines today are announcing that Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is in Washington, D.C., to discuss the West Bank with the Administration. Hogwash! While the subject of the West Bank may indeed raise its head at some...
If you are a single Scandinavian woman who enjoys whiskey, guns, and hand-piecing quilts, I have got *the* man for you. Ryan "Ranger" Petersen can fix a sink, build a fire, catch a fish, and probably build...
Simple, now-you're-dead one-upsmanship works itself into the mix in this doodle. I've always been enamored of this sort of situational humor where the bad guy, thinking he has the upper hand, slowly comes to the dawning realization that he is...
...who was my pastor last year: Unless Jesus is first and best and most in our lives, nothing else with be worth anything. And according to a pastor (I can't remember his name) at a Big Church in Hilo (and I can't...
My pastor frequently says it takes more faith to believe in evolution than it does a Creator and I believe him. The whole thing is completely illogical to me. If we are evolving into superior beings, why all the variety...
Giving an opinion after a request from Rep. JoAnne ("A representative from District 29, with Jo on our side the future's looking bright...") Favors, the Tennessee Attorney General's office has ruled that the Hamilton County Herald is, in fact, "a...
Say this for the Times Free Press: It does not lack for Da Vinci Code coverage. Not satisfied by Saturday’s front-page story in which pastors used their pulpits to dispute the celluloid heresy? Don’t worry: Monday’s paper has another, front-of-Metro...
The Stong Building, a century-old hotel next door to the Chattanooga Choo-Choo – and the structure named the city’s second-most imperiled by The Pulse last July – has been saved from demolition. Probably. Joe Sliger of Eastman Construction purchased the Stong...

A recent New York Times story mentioned Chattanooga as one of four possible locations for a new Toyota plant; the others being Greensboro, NC, Roanoke, VA and northeast Arkansas. Hopefully someone has told Toyota about Enterprise South. ...
Here's a great example of the type of drawings my long-time pal Ken Walbus produces. I had the privilege of seeing him again last week when I returned to my hometown where I convinced him to draw on some notes...
I have got to tell you all about last Saturday's shift. I don't have time right now, but remind me to blog about the Japanese lady and Daddy's Little Thief....
They're repaving parts of our apartment complex parking lot, which makes the rest of it terribly crowded--where will all the people park? Here, there, and everywhere, apparently. A young woman pulled out of her spot last night (without looking!) just...
