Debbie Reynolds Nana Visitor (Hubby knew her name- figures) Splits LOLOLOL! DebbieNanaSplits The Banana Splits!

"The last step is to treat the person as you would an unbeliever (i.e., kindly, but detached)" Kindly but detached? WHAT? Just how do you win folks to Christ if you are "kindly but detached?" That is the biggest bunch of malarkey I've ever read in my life. Was Jesus "Kindly but detached?" Idiots.... "Wanna come to church with me?" She said in her kindly but detached manner. "If you believe I'll be your best friend, that is, until you screw up, and "get out of fellowship."(According to ME of course.) Then I'm going right back to being "kindly but detached." THAT folks is using people. IDIOTS! SHEEEEESH....... Meet the new boss, same as the "old boss...

Ok so think of it this way... YOu have a house that is falling apart with structural problems. The structural problems have caused cosmetic problems. The major structural problems have caused other structural problems. Suppose it's not just the walls, or the doors, or the windows.... suppose its the foundation itself. Now you have a real problem. Now - sure you can do the easy stuff - replace some shingles, caulk some cracks, maybe even sand a few doors and door jams to keep things looking good. You can even give it a new coat of paint and new curtains. BUT......the structural problems will still be there and they will worsten and more money will be put into cosmetic issues soon. Makes a case for gutting the place and starting over. I truly think that these folks need to be in a level of support and not leadership for a season - like maybe 20 seasons really, and learn how to be accountable. If it ain't broke don't fix it. But if it is broken sometimes you have to throw it out and get something new.

IF I have to choose- it's mayo. Miracle Whip - its a miracle someone hasn't gotten whipped for making that stuff. Now I like Hellman's, but I also have learned to make my own with olive oil, grapeseed oil, egg, salt, lemon, dry mustard, and white pepper. It's not as much work as it seems to be at first - but it doesn't keep long so I usually only use the store bought stuff. For the most part, I only use mayo in tuna salad - and I would rather not use it there - but the husband unit likes it. I'm a bigger fan of lemon, oil, vinegar, or mustard- brown and spicy. I LOVE Chinese mustard. It makes me tear up and my sinuses get cleared out.

Rubbing your hands on stainless steel after handling fish will also remove that smell. I always wash my hands and then rub the faucet. If you don't like that idea, there are stainless steel "bars" that you can buy from kitchen stores. They look like bars of soap.

her name in the show was Belana ( or B'lana?)

I also speak "Sweet Potato Queen's English." How's your Mama and 'em?

A few thoughts and then I'll go back to my corner.. JAL is always about JAL. Funny that even when he is trying to make a "full disclosure" he is stll covering his a$$. Preserving his "package?" LOL now I have coffee all over my keyboard! I'd like to see "his Package" preserved in a ball glass jar filled with formaldehyde. (OK Not really !) You gotta admit tho, there are probably a lot of folks that would like to see something hysterically evil done with any package that has JAL's name attached to it. Oh about now wanting to talk to "screen names" He probably wants to make sure that he's not talking to someone that can sue is sorry a$$. Ok - now i'm done. Maybe I should stay away for a bit longer next time.

Wellllllllll Both French and Italian ARE Latin based languages..... And I speak Texan fluently y'all. It's like bagels and Lox, chips and picante sauce, pizza WITHOUT pineapple, meat and potatoes, spaghetti and meatballs, and (ugh) the ultimate couple here in the South.... Chicken Fried steak and Bulldog gravy with biscuits (AKA - heart attack on a plate)

Sushi - its not French, its Latin. It means "that which none" It refers to a thing that cannot exist without another thing. Or in othe word, "you can't have one without the other."

Of Lint Stones? Of Lint Rolling? Not getting it here - but sometimes I don't even know the title I'm looking for to begin with. Of Lint Stones? Of Lint Rolling? Not getting it here - but sometimes I don't even know the title I'm looking for to begin with.

We had a roast beef (hole drilled in the beef and lot of garlic inside with fresh rosemary on top,) garlic mashed potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, green beens Almandine (lots of butter and lots of almond slivers.) Wine, was served with dinner. Kids had Dr Pepper. For dessert, New York style cheesecake with some changes to the recipe, Blueberry pie. A fairly simple dinner - but everyone loved it.

Isn't that called "sensory depravaition?" HMMMMMMMMMMM

Hopeful PM me... Dooj

Yes! these are the joys of my life. They are the reason I breathe while I'm here and now. Both girls dance and are multi-talented. I'm so proud of them! I only wish for them that they go much further in their lives than I have - do more, love more, heal more, and just BE more. I just wanna give them as much of myself and the foundations of learning and then stand back and watch them take the world by storm.

No it isn't - Raf? Where's Raf? OOOOOOOOOOhhhhhhh Raaaa aaaaaaaffffff!

Well - the headdress was originally designed to dance in - but it is a bit heavy- her teacher wanted it that way. If they don't get to practice in it early on - which they didn't this year - then they have another, smaller and lighter headdress that they dance in. This is used for bowing and the finale. They had a great time! Its a lot of work for the whole family, but the kids get such a sense of accomplishment when they are done! Not to mention that they get to play "dress up" for a whole day! I work backstage to keep the costumes on the right girls at the right time, and to make sure that anything that is broken is repaired. I am also in charge of making the various headdresses that don't need to be sewn. (I DON"T sew!) I've made crowns and added finishing touches to all sorts of things that just didn't look right without "just one more little detail."

Here is a preview of the photos in my new Gallery entry.

ok ok Trix

That's it, KIT! Your turn.

needle and thread mae West Roger Rabbit Hmmmmmm - maybe I'm missing something.

I'm going to keep saying this over and over and over and over ....... If I set up a new church on the corner and call it a "Baptist" church - no problem. (Don't start with doctrinal stuff - give me your willing suspension of disbelief for a second.) The same is true if I start a Church with any "brand name" because I'm not trying to say that I'm bigger and better (or smaller, more in the know) and in competition with other churches. BUT, If I start a church or spinoff that claims to be a Research and teaching ministry with "new and special knowledge", well I'm then just insuring my success with those who have "itching ears." Now I have problem because I HAVE to be bigger and better and find more elusive tidbits of truth that God apparently hid under twenty feet of granite. (Has ANYONE ever asked themselves why when we were told that 90% of all scripture is to be interpreted right in the verse that there are some that keep saying that its just not that simple and they HAVE to change it all around?!) And why is it that the stuff He "hid" is always the stuff that will "change our lives?" If its so dang important it would seem that He woulda made it easier to find. HMMMMMMMMMMMM......think about it... So of course the stage was set for this prophecy stuff. It was something that added to the "special" knowlege of the muckety mucks in CES/STFI. Just imagine how one would feel when they could say, "Well OUR church has a prophetic counsel that makes sure we're on the right track." Oh and isn't it the job of The National Inquirer to report "prophets" that say that they foresaw events like 9/11 but didnt' know what to do about it? I'm not PFAL geek, but I do remember vpw saying that when God gives a prophet revelation He would also tell what to do with that info......HMMMMMMMMMM..... So - it seems that in the quest for "some new thing" that all common sense was thrown to the wind. Its as if someone said to themselves, "We have to do all we can to totally contradict PFAL." I'm not a fan of PFAL, but I can see a lost lead when I see one. What was it that PT Barnum said........? I am not trying to insult those here that followed the teachings of CES/ STFI, but I am trying to make sense of it all. I would truly love to never see a thread of this nature again in the future. People are simply too precious. There is no excuse for using the name of God to manipulate folks to do one's bid and call.

Tell Mrs Lingo that she has prayers here too.
