As long as there is no Judeo-Christian religion in public education, violence there will escalate.

Solving Problems

In Humor on August 31, 2009 by Jeff Voegtlin Tagged: , , , , ,

I Wish All Problems Would Be So Simple

Everyone concentrates on the problems we’re having in this country lately –

1.  (a) Illegal immigration, (b) Hurricane recovery, (c) Alligators attacking people in Florida

……… not me — I concentrate on solutions for the problems — it’s a win-win situation.
    * Dig a moat the length of the Mexican border.
    * Send the dirt to New Orleans to raise the level of the levees.
    * Put the Florida alligators in the moat along the Mexican border.
       

Any other problems you would like for me to solve today? Yes !
    Think about this:
    2. Cows
    3. The Constitution
    4. The Ten Commandments

2.  COWS

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that during the mad cow epidemic our government could track a single cow, born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she slept in the state of Washington? And, they tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow..

3.  THE CONSTITUTION

They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq …. why don’t we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we’re not using it anymore.

4.  THE 10 COMMANDMENTS

The real reason that we can’t have the Ten Commandments posted in a court house is this — you cannot post ‘Thou Shalt Not Steal’ ‘Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery’ and ‘Thou Shall Not Lie’ in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians … it creates a hostile work environment.

The New Cambridge Paragraph Bible

jmarkbertrand.com – Bibles – Authorized, Restored and Paragraphed! The New Cambridge Paragraph Bible.

Here is an interesting article about the New Cambridge Paragraph Bible.  I essentially agree with everything the man says here.  I love my Penguin edition and read it everyday.  I look forward to the day that Cambridge makes this edition handier for using in church.

flag at whitehouse dot gov

In What I'm Reading on August 6, 2009 by Jeff Voegtlin Tagged: , , , , , , , ,

The whitehouse is asking for all comrades citizens to report send fishy information to them at flag@whitehouse.gov. I figure every bit of spam I get in my mailbox is fishy.  So, as a good comrade citizen, I’ve just made a rule in my email program to automatically forward every bit of mail I don’t want to see to the whitehouse.   I’m so glad they’re everywhere there to help us out!

Here’s a link to the request.

Resolved to Die

If we are resolved to die sooner than forsake the Lord, we may depend upon it that we shall not die, but shall live to see the overthrow of them that hate us. — C. H. Spurgeon (Treasury of David, Psalm 119:87)

How Retired People Spend Their Time

In Humor on July 25, 2009 by Jeff Voegtlin Tagged: , , , , ,

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.

Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went into town and went into a shop. We were only in there for about 5 minutes. When we came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. We went up to him and said, ‘Come on man, how about giving a senior citizen a break?’  He ignored us and continued writing the ticket. I called him a Nazi jerk. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tires. So my wife called him a fat-head. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

Personally, we didn’t care. We came into town by bus and the car had an Obama sticker. We try to have a little fun each day now that we’re retired. It’s important at our age.

Latest Model GM!!

In Humor on June 19, 2009 by Jeff Voegtlin Tagged: , , , ,

GM2010

The new GM (Government Motors) proudly introduces the 2010 Obama!

This car runs on hot air and false promises of “Hope.”

It has three wheels that speed the vehicle through sharp left turns.

It comes with two teleprompters to help the occupants talk without having to think or understand what they’re saying.

The transparent canopy reveals the permanent plastic smiles on the faces of all the “ ‘Change’ happy” owners.

All this for only $2,988.88 (plus your share of the national debt … Currently $36,809.84 … And rising) !
