Food fight?Posted by Lorren on June 27, 2007
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in different places.
~ Mat 24:7
Reading the newspaper is almost like reading the last books of the Bible sometimes. We have wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes in diverse places, the threat of superbugs like bird [...]
Out of JailPosted by Lorren on
Paris Hilton got out of jail early this morning. I don’t particularly care for her, but I wish her luck. Hopefully she’s changed like she says that she has.
Doesn’t seem like her parents are doing her any favors, shopping around an interview with her for the largest amount of cash. Course they [...]
How To Teach The KidsPosted by Lorren on June 25, 2007
Our local newspaper has been involved in a long-term project in our area: teach a bunch of first graders how to read. The project has been going on for 3 years now, and the first graders are now third graders.
When I was in college, I tutored at a local elementary school. Some of [...]
Fathers and God In AmericaPosted by Lorren on June 18, 2007
Today is father’s day. Well, it’s almost done, and by the time you read this it will be over. If you’re a father, I hope that you had a good one.
It was a good idea to reflect on the role that fathers play in this country, I suppose. Or at least, that’s [...]
Heaven Has Two New People This WeekPosted by Lorren on June 15, 2007
Our world has lost two wonderful people this week. Our loss, but Heaven’s gain.
The first person, that I’m sure many people have heard about, is Ruth Graham, Billy Graham’s wife. She went into a coma yesterday, and died earlier this afternoon. I really didn’t know much about her, but I’m sure that [...]
Education in America: Value For Your Money?Posted by Lorren on June 12, 2007
I suppose that schools haven’t been in the news much lately… school is out for the summer here in Arizona, everybody else is graduating, getting ready for prom, or just excited for the end of the school year. This year I haven’t heard any stories about valedictorians not being able to give their speeches [...]
Back In JailPosted by Lorren on June 8, 2007
Paris Hilton was ordered back in jail. Well good. Maybe there’s hope after all.
Probably not though.
The Amish and RFIDPosted by Lorren on
I’m not Amish (you probably figured that one out already). But I have a lot of respect for them. I admire their devotion to God, and even their separation in many ways from the world. While I personally like my electricity, I respect anybody that can do without it.
So it makes me [...]
Immigration Bill DefeatedPosted by Lorren on
Yesterday the immigration bill was defeated. Good! Nobody seemed to like it anyway.
But we still have the problem of illegal immigration. And we still have approximately 12 million immigrants here in this country. What to do? I was watching the O’Reilly Factor earlier this week, and somebody remarked that rounding [...]
Somebody Call The Waaahmbulance!Posted by Lorren on
So I guess that Paris Hilton ended up getting released from prison early. She was sitting in her cell crying all day, and had mental distress. Boo hoo.
So her new “punishment” is to be confined to her house. Where I’m guessing she can swim in her pool, shop online, or do whatever [...]
