God Finishes 10th


Children under 10 think being a celebrity is the "very best thing in the world" but do not think quite as much of God, a survey has revealed.
The poll of just under 1,500 youngsters ranked "God" as their tenth favorite thing in the world, with "celebrity, good looks and being rich" at one, two and three respectively.
However, God did come in first again this year as "the most famous person" in the world, beating US President George Bush into second place.
Here is a sample of some of the survey's results: What do you think is "the very best thing in the world?"

1. Being a Celebrity 2. Good Looks 3. Being Rich 4. Being Healthy 5. Pop Music 6. Families 7. Friends 8. Nice Food 9. Watching Films 10. Heaven/God

I think if someone asked me what I think is "the very best thing in the world" when I was 10 years old I would have said a "Bob's Fiesta Burger" from Bob's Drive-In in Paducah, KY or catching a nice fish from the lake in our neighborhood.

Question?


I have noticed that KFC uses a black family in their commercials. Is that racist?

"Grande Gingerbread Latte for Jim Bob"



What better way to celebrate a UK victory over Indiana than with some jocularaty at Starbucks. The goal; get the person who calls out your name to chuckle. Jim Bob worked for me.

I'm a Christ Follower (Mac vs. PC Parody) Part 01

I like this but I wonder....has there been such a stigma attached to the name "Christian" that many who believe Jesus is who he said he was (The Messiah) would rather not be called Christian? I think much of the stigma has been self inflicted but the mass media and the way they portray Christians is partly to blame too.

The News vs Romper Room



The current "News Media" reminds me of the most popular show there was for kids when I was growing up. The lessons are very similar. Here are some actual "lessons" some "news" shows felt I needed to know.
1. Cook the chicken so I won't get sick
2. Use a blanket in cold weather
3. Start my car early on a cold day
4. Should I call in to work when I'm sick? (Dr. Nancy helped me with this one)
5. Liver failure could lead to death
These are just a few....I may be adding to this as I see more. Feel free to comment with the important lessons the news media has for you too!

28 Year Dilemma!


I have been hanging Christmas lights for more than 28 years. I want to meet the people who design and construct Christmas lights. I CANNOT figure them out. Why does only half a strand work and no matter what you do, you can't get the other half to work. Why? There...I feel better. Merry Christmas!

Kickoff to the Season!
