"I'm ready for my closeup Mr. Demil"

"iszat you Norma? "

Anyhow, France still hasn't realized Cardinal Richelieu is dead and gone.

I was so hoping to be there with you but it was just not in the cards. I thank all of you for your devotion and for once again representing all of us so well. One of you please snap off one last, smart salute to the Gipper from me. Be well, Jennifer

I wasn�t in uniform or he would have gotten one. By the way, we all knew all of our America was watching. You could feel it in the rotunda. And you knew the President was there. Before we went in I overheard some cops saying “can you believe these poeple are this polite after six hours?�

Native American Prayer

I give you this,

one thought to keep,

I am with you still,

I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamond glints on snow,

I am the sunlight on ripened grain,

I am the gentle autumn rain.

in the morning’s hush,

I am the swift, uplifting rush

of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft stars

that shine at night.

Do not think of me as gone

I am with you still,

in each new dawn.

What comes to mind is that it is easy for a person to make a deathbed confession and repent so as to influence public opinion and "soften" the public's view of their misdeeds.

FRankly, I think such actions are bogus public relations ploys.

Thankfully, I do not have to judge late "conversions."

IMHO, though, if an evil person is able to escape the fires of Hell because of a few words uttered just before their death, it kind of trashes the whole concept of living as a God fearing productive member of society, doesn't it?

I mean, if we have to deal with the same a$$holes in Heaven as we have to deal with here on earth, what is the point?

Speaking of salt and slugs, when any of the D lever pullers I'm associated with out here start in on a "but Reagan" session I just reply with "Oh, so I guess all these now liberated peoples leaders and former foes paying homage are all "in on this" eh?

Gets the same effect out of em :-)

You are right, it IS easy to make deathbed confessions. When they do something like that in order to influence public opinion and soften the public's view of them, that does NOT change where they will go. I am thankful that I don't have to judge those kind either! For an evil person to escape the fires of Hell they have to make a heartfelt conversion, not just say some words. It all comes from the heart. I do believe that there are heartfelt deathbed confssions, and only God knows whether they are sincere. There won't be jackasses in Heaven because sin does not exist there :o)

I haven't had a chance to read through the entire thread, but what happened to the picture of Gorbachev and Nancy? Also the picture of Nancy and Margaret Thatcher?

Goodness, the thread is so long that I lost all sense of where anything is. Wish I could be more helpful.
