LIBERATOR. DEAD SEA COLLECTION. DEAD SPIN. JAMES BIBLE VS. KING JAMES VERSION OF THE BIBLE. SOPHISTRY! MIXING THE PHILOSOPHY OF MAN WITH THE PHILOSOPHY OR TEACHINGS OF GOD! THE BOOK OF RUTH IN THE BIBLE IS A TENDER STORY OF A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW, STAYING WITH HER MOTHER-IN-LAW, WHOM SHE LOVED AND RESPECTED. I USED THE STORY OF RUTH'S DEVOTION TO NAOMI, IN MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY MOTHER-IN-LAW. I LOVED HER DEARLY. DUE TO MY DIVORCE FROM HER SON, WE DIDN'T SEE EACH OTHER MUCH, BUT, AND, DUE TO A NEW WIFE, AT THE REQUEST OF MY EX, IT HAD BEEN YEARS SINCE I HAD SEEN MY MOTHER-IN-LAW. ONE DAY, MY SON, ELLIOT, SAID THAT GRANDMA SECRIST WAS IN A NURSING HOME JUST DOWN THE STREET, WE OUGHT TO GO VISIT HER. THE PLACE WAS LOVELY, ONE OF THE NICEST I HAVE SEEN, AND THIS CULTURED, CLASSY LADY, WAS A WELL GROOMED AND DIGNIFIED, AS SHE HAD ALWAYS BEEN. SHE WAS 93 AND DIED THE NIGHT OF THAT VISIT. SOB. CHRIST TAUGHT TO TREAT EVERY OLDER LADY AS YOUR MOTHER, EVERY YOUNGER WOMAN AS YOUR SISTER OR DAUGHTER, AND THIS SEEMS TO BE THE STORY TO TEACH US HOW WE SHOULD TREAT OUR MOTHER-IN-LAW. THAT WOULD BE CONSISTENT WITH THE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST, AND GOD, HIS FATHER. TO SEXUALIZE THAT BEAUTIFUL STORY, IS WRONG. NO HUNGER. NO WASTE. SIMPLE. SAFE. COMPLIANT. NOW I HAVE HAD DREAMS OF COPS, SQUAD CAR LIGHTS FLASHING OUTSIDE MY WINDOW, OR COPS IN MASS STANDING OUTSIDE MY FRONT DOOR, OR JUST PLAIN, IGNORING ME, BUT, LAST NIGHT, I HAD A DREAM, OF SOME MAN, SHORT, FRIAR TUCK, HAIR DO, BLUE SHIRT, LEVIS, RUNNING SHOES, AND A PAIR OF HANDCUFFS, GRABBING MY ARM IN THE NIGHT, AND SLAPPING HANDCUFFS ON ME AND ATTACHING THE OTHER ONE TO THE CHURCH PEW THAT, WAS, ABOUT OVER MY HEAD! LOL. LITERALLY, WE ARE IN AN EMERGENCY SHELTER, AT ST. PETERS UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, AND, WE LOVE THEM, THEY EXTENDED OUR STAY LONGER--YEAH--WE THOUGHT WE WOULD HAVE TO BE OUT BY OCTOBER 15TH! SO KISSES. WE ARE SAFE AND COMFORTABLE THERE, AND THE LADIES BRING AMAZING FOOD! BUT, BACK TO THE HANDCUFFS! A PERSON CAN BELIEVE, ANYTHING THEY WANT IN THIS COUNTRY, AS LONG AS THEIR ACTIONS, DO NOT VIOLATE ANY LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! THE FIRST AMENDMENT, GUARANTEES US THE FREEDOM TO PRACTICE RELIGION OR TO BE FREE FROM THE PRACTICE OF RELIGION! THERE SHALL BE NO ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION! I BELIEVE, THAT, BY NOT LIMITING THE NUMBERS OF MORMONS IN THE FBI, CIA, AND OTHER ALPHABET SOUP AGENCIES, IN ADDITION TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT, AND ALL OUR EMBASSIES, THE U.S. CONSULATE, ECT. WE SHOULD NOT HAVE A HIGHER NUMBER OF MORMONS, THAT IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THEIR PROPORTIONS IN THE POPULATION OF THIS COUNTRY! THEY MAKE UP 1% OF THE U.S. POPULATION, ABOUT THAT OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE! THE FIRST PART OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT, OR THE PREFIX, OF THE FIRST THREE AMENDMENTS TO THE BILL OF RIGHTS, STATES, THAT CONGRESS SHALL NOT . . . WE HAVE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEES, LIKE THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE IN BOTH THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE THAT NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS! THERE IS A OVER-REPRESENTATION, OF MORMONS, AND THEREFORE, YOU START TO GET A MORMON GOVERNMENT, WITH MORMON SYMPATHIZERS, WHO INGRATIATE THEMSELVES TO THE MORMONS, BECAUSE THEY HOLD ALL THE LEADERSHIP POSITIONS! WATCH THE MOVIE, "BURN AFTER READING!" I'M SURE THEY WILL, MORMONS THAT IS. I WAS IN JUST AS HOT WATER, AS A MEMBER OF THE MORMON CHURCH FOR QUESTIONING, WHOMEVER, FROM SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS, TO BISHOPS . . . THESE ARE MERE PEOPLE, AND IF SOMETHING DOESN'T SYNC WITH YOUR SPIRIT, OR SCRIPTURES, OR YOUR COMFORT OF THE UNDERSTANDING OF SOMETHING--YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS TO QUESTION IT! I AM BOTH INTELLECTUALLY AND SPIRITUALLY CURIOUS. I AM A SEEKER. I DO NOT COME BY MY KNOWLEDGE AND BELIEFS, THROUGH LAZINESS, OR LACK OF SEARCHING THE SCRIPTURES MYSELF, NOR THE LAW EITHER! I AM WELL FOUNDED IN BOTH! I DO NOT PUSH ANY PARTICULAR RELIGION! I HAVE PROMOTED, REGULAR CHURCH ATTENDANCE, IF YOU WANT! I HAVE FOUND GOOD IN ALL OF THEM AND THE STUDIES SHOW THAT PEOPLE WHO ATTEND REGULAR CHURCH SERVICES, EACH WEEK ARE HAPPIER! I BELIEVE THAT IT IS A GOOD FOUNDATION FOR KIDS, TOO! I LIKE TO TRY ALL CHURCH, MAINLY GO TO THE ONES, MOST CONVENIENT TO MY LIFESTYLE AT THE TIME, OR THE ONES, I FIND UPLIFTING AND ENLIGHTENING! BUT, I REFUSE TO ACCEPT, ANY PASTOR, BISHOP, LEADER''S INTERPRETATION OF THE SCRIPTURES AS MORE VIABLE THAN MY OWN! THE SCRIPTURES WERE MY LAW, GROWING UP AND I STUDIED THEM FROM MY YOUTH! I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOUTH TO READ THEM AS MUCH AS AN ACADEMIC PURSUIT, AS A RELIGIOUS ONE! WELL EDUCATED PEOPLE HAVE READ THE BIBLE, AND IT IS ON THE LIST OF EVERY RECOMMENDED, LIST OF THE WORLD'S GREATEST BOOKS, AND IT HAS BEEN ON THE NEW YORK BEST SELLER LIST SINCE, THAT, STARTED! I STILL BELIEVE IT IS THE SMARTEST, HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY BOOK IN THE WORLD! SURE, YOU HAVE TO WADE PASSED THE PROPHET, COMMANDING A BEAR TO EAT KIDS, FOR MAKING FUN OF HIM AND THROWING A ROCK AT HIM! LOL. WHERE I GOT HUNG UP AS A YOUTH , WAS READING ABOUT LOT'S DAUGHTER'S GETTING HIM DRUNK AND SLEEPING WITH HIM! DIFFERENT TIMES, DIFFERENT CULTURES. DIANA BEING RAPED, AND BARELY DRAGGING HERSELF TO HER OLDER BROTHER'S HOUSE, TO DIE ON THE FRONT STEPS, AS I RECALL, THEN, I THINK , HE CUTS HER BODY UP IN 12 PIECES, ONE FOR EACH OF THE 12 TRIBES, OF ISRAEL, OR ONE FOR EACH BROTHER, AND THEY GO AND SLAUGHTER, WHAT, 155,000 PEOPLE OF THE TRIBE OR TOWN THE RAPIST WAS FROM! THAT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING ABOUT HOW GOD LOOKS AND RAPE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT! NOAH'S SON, SAW HIM NAKED ASLEEP ON HIS BED, AND, THEY ALL GOT TOGETHER AND LAUGHED ABOUT THEIR FATHER . . . CURSES CAME AFTER THAT ON THE BROTHER WHO POINTED OUT HIS NAKEDNESS! IF YOU CAN GET THROUGH THAT STUFF, AND HIT, PROVERBS, PSALMS, OR THE REST OF GOD'S DEALINGS WITH MANKIND, THERE IS SOME PRECIOUS TRUTHS, WAYS TO RAISE YOUR CHILDREN, HOW TO DEAL WITH PEOPLE IN GENERAL, AND JUST WONDERFUL STUFF! SOMETIMES, LOVE DOESN'T FEEL LIKE IT SHOULD. SINK YOUR TEETH IN MY BONES, AND LET SHE WHERE WE GO. MAKE IT HURT SO GOOD! SEE MOAN. WASHINGTON FEDERAL? METRO 249 EARLY MORNING RUN.

GET SMART, READ THE BIBLE!

SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL CHURCHES, THEY CAN GO PLACES, COPS CAN'T, AND THEY GIVE PEOPLE, A SUPPORT SYSTEM, THAT THEY CAN GET FEW OTHER PLACES!

KEEP ROCKIN' IT CLERGY!

REASONABLE PEOPLE AGREE TO DISAGREE!

THERE ARE 9 MEMBERS OF THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT, AND, ON THE SAME LAW AND ISSUE, THEY WILL HAVE, BOTH A MAJORITY VOTE AND ALSO, ALWAYS HAVE A DISSENTING OPINION!

SCRIPTURES CAN BE INTERPRETED, MANY WAYS, BUT DON'T LOSE THE BEAUTY OF THE STORY!

I LOVE YOU, LULA JEAN!

LOVE. KISSES. HUGS.

WISH I COULD GIVE THEM TO YOU IN PERSON!

I LOVED MY MOTHER-IN-LAW!

WHAT A GREAT EXAMPLE TO MY KIDS!

YOU WERE BORN WELL!

SO MUCH FOR THE MOTHER-IN-LAW JOKES!

DEAD SPIN.

P.S., I HEARD A GREAT THING ABOUT, MICROSOFT YESTERDAY, LOCAL COMPANY, WORLDWIDE, TOO . . . ONE OF MY BUDDIES JUST GOT HIRED, AT MICROSOFT, SHE HAD A SLOW DAY, HER FIRST DAY, SO SHE DITCHED INTO THE CONFERENCE, AND, THE SPEAKER WAS TALKING ABOUT "DIVERSITY" AND WENT ON TO SAY, THAT MICROSOFT, IS CHANGING THEIR POLICY, WITH REGARDS TO ONLY HIRING PEOPLE WITH PH.D'S, AND MASTERS, BECAUSE THEY HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITIES OTHERS DID NOT, SO THEY ARE EXPANDING THEIR HIRING BASE, AND, TAKING PEOPLE, WHO HAVE 2 YEARS IN SOME, CODING OR COMPUTER PROGRAM!

WE ARE ALL CREATED EQUAL, IN BOTH THE EYES OF GOD AND IN THE EYES OF THE LAW, BUT WE DON'T ALL GET THE SAME OPPORTUNITIES!

THANK YOU, MICROSOFT FOR, REALIZING THAT, AND TRYING TO HELP EVEN THE SCORE!

BIG HUG!
