I took my dad to the mall the other day to buy some new shoes. We decided to grab a bite at the food court. I noticed he was watching a teenager sitting next to him. The teenager had spiked hair in all different colors: green, red, orange, and blue. My dad kept staring at him. The teenager would look and find him staring every time.
When the teenager had enough, he sarcastically asked, "What's the matter Old man, never done anything wild in your life?"
Knowing my dad, I quickly swallowed my food so that I would not choke on His response; knowing he would have a good one. And in classic style he did Not bat an eye in his response...

"Got drunk once and had sex with a peacock. I was just wondering if you were my son."

Dear God;
So far today, I've done all right. I haven't gossiped, lost my temper, been greedy or grumpy, selfish, or over indulgent..... but, in a few minutes, I'm going to get out of bed. And from then on, I'm probably going to need a lot more help....
What a little thing a tongue is,
Yet what damage it can do,
By whispering little secrets,
And words that are untrue.
For words that once are spoken,
Especially when unkind,
Are never quite forgotten,
They linger in the mind.
So always keep your tongue on guard
And watch what words you choose.
Then there will never pass your lips
The kind you should not use.
from my friend Obi-quiet
by the by did Carlene even know who you were when she left that post???

If Liberty means anything at all, it is the power to tell people what they do not want to hear.
