But asked about the letter, he said his comments were “hyperbole, non clarity,” and that “I don’t want anybody to go shoot anybody, but I want people to understand what a slippery slope we can be on and what the purpose of the Second Amendment is.” Posted in #culturewar | Tagg...
I think this is why it can actually take more skill to make great music on samplers: there are so many easy outs. When one loop sounds great, you have to actively disrupt it to create something new, whereas with acoustic instruments you have to literally play a repeated section every ...
If I am to model my life after Him, I can take a few lessons from the pages of the Bible and see that Jesus gives plenty of examples showing the importance of a dedicated and intentional prayer time. In Luke chapters five and six we see that Jesus would withdraw away often to privatel...
Along with a $2.75 quesadilla (price unchanged in two years), my meal there will now run me $7.00. While that's not a whole lot of money for you folks making the big bucks in the Iraqi reconstruction business, I can get a whole lot more food elsewhere for that price. I can find ...

I could ride a bike and turn corners without my hands touching the handle-bars, but I was a klutz on the basketball court. To this day, I can't follow the easy steps of line dancing—I can "short-out" The Electric Slide. During the summertime, I shined as a tomboy, while also ...
“No, I don’t expect they will.” A few days later, I found Jerry Bailey before a race. It was a cinch to get into the jocks’ room in those days. That was before Elliott Spitzer sipped all the fizz out of Saratoga Race Track. These days the Press can’t walk inside the Jocks...
