Whew! Sorry. :( Very late getting this posted. (Very long, John!) Tough time with the illustrations - the possibilities were endless, but finally I just had to go with first instinct.

Excellent job you two. Wonderful graphics billie...your "instincts" were spot on!!!!

Won't be around much...things were going pretty well with dad until yesterday...they have decided to move him to the Alzheimer's unit today (he was up all night wandering and paranoid). Very sad...but affirms to me the need for him to be in skilled care. ((((hugs))))

P.S. Your thread yesterday is BEAUTIFUL! Love to see your creative juices flow!!!!

Thank you, dutchess. You and John are such a great team, and you have a knack for choosing just the right stuff, so unless I have a "lightbulb" moment, I really struggle with it.

Thanks for those sweet words about yesterday's thread - *that*, you know, is my kinda stuff. :)

I am so sad about your dad. Major Hugs to you, sweet sistah.

The Horse And His Boy

READ: Proverbs 16:18-25

When pride comes, then comes shame; but with the humble is wisdom. —Proverbs 11:2

In the Narnia Chronicle The Horse and His Boy, Bree is a talking horse. He considers the boy, Shasta, a “foal” who is badly in need of training. Often the horse’s arrogant opinions reflect an air of superiority. He thinks of himself as a brave warhorse, possessing great skill and courage. Yet, when he hears the roar of a great lion, he flees and leaves the other members of his party unprotected.

Later, Bree meets Aslan the lion, who is king of Narnia. The horse admits that he has been an arrogant and frightened failure. Aslan praises Bree for admitting his shortcomings.

The Bible tells us: “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” (Prov. 16:18). Life has a way of exposing the flaws of our own personal vanity. But learning the hard lesson that “pride goes before destruction” can become a turning point in which we intentionally shift our focus away from exalting self. Then, as we adopt a humble spirit before God and man, we can become channels of wisdom to others. “When pride comes, then comes shame; but with the humble is wisdom” (Prov. 11:2).

Promoting our own importance leads to stumbling. But focusing on glorifying God and meeting the needs of others gives us the perspective of the wise. 

Blessed Savior, make me humble,
Take away my sinful pride;
In myself I’m sure to stumble,
Help me stay close by Your side. —D. De Haan

Pride brings shame. Humility brings wisdom.

Outstanding essay and graphics. Understandable how hard it would be to select graphics depicting the stupidity of ‘dem damn dems - so many choices - so little space.

I’ve undertaken a new hobby - taking our local dem propaganda publication to task for their bias reporting. Musta touched a nerve when I quoted an editor’s recent comments regarding his “professional ethics” when they chose not to publish any of the Hsu news, instead it was wall to wall Senator Craig. The editor sent a personal e-mail and his arguement has more holes in it than a slice of swiss cheese.

A bit off topic, but here’s a little song I created and posted on a few Hsu threads...

Bad Boy Bad Boy
Wha hsu gonna do
Wha hsu gonna do
When she comes for you
Bad Boy Bad Boy.

LOL..Of course they NEVER see their own bias.

You should have heard the MSM reporting of Gen. Petraeus’s report. I heard the network reporting on my local news segment and almost jumped out my chair.I give credit to Fox..They did not put snide asides in..

Even Osama is upset at Democrats for not finding a way to force America to lose the war. In the lead-up to the sixth 9/11 anniversary, he launched a series of new videos meant to rally Democrats. At the rate he’s putting out videos, Osama should appear in the next Democrat YouTube debate.

All week I've been steaming. These rats have gone beyond the point of dishonorable. I can't find the words to express. They are now also the enemy. Very dismal time in US history. I pray that history will say that we finally won the WOT and put the rats in their place.
