Does this make you want to buy a car? I didn’t really want to get a new C3500 Silverado Pickup – even with all the repaires I’ve had to make to my pickup, but then I saw this three story…
Christians and Halloween
As I stated in yesterday’s post, I am no fan of Halloween. Besides the obvious links to the occult that anyone with an I.Q. greater than that of a common lap poodle should be able to see, along with the…
A New Beginning?
I just got back from my second interview in Granite City. I got the job! I’ll be starting November 10th, about a week and a half away. I’m mildly excited about getting the job, and that will change to wild…

Kids and Oct. 31
Call me whatever you want: anti-social, uptight, ignorant, Christian Fanatic, whatever; I am no fan of Halloween. The occultic roots and influence are far deeper than most people think. Someone once said “asking a Christian to celebrate Halloween is like…
I hope my car is Satisfied
Those greedy weasels managed to leach $200 out of me to get my heat working, and what’s worse is all they did was flush the coolant system. Half that was to run a diagnostic and the other half was the…
A Rare Sight
I’m sure if there is anyone actually reading this (I know I have at least one reader who is not me), you’re probably skipping over the Tivo updates. That’s okay, I write as much for my own enjoyment as anything…
One Step Closer to a Job
I just got off the phone with one of the guys at Miller in Granite City, where I had my interview last week. They want to do another interview! That makes me very happy . I should be meeting with…
The Mobile Money Pit
I’m starting to see why people buy new vehicles every two or three years. I always thought it was a little excessive. Well, if you’re going to put a few hundred bucks a month into a vehicle, you might as…
The hits just keep coming
I just found out about another downer to the Tivo going out. My Mom got off the phone with a friend and told me that an email I sent to Bill O’Reilly was read on the air. Of course I…
The Terrible Tivoes
Ok, I’m happy now. I got the Tivo up and running. I was even able to continue the experiment that got me in trouble last night without more trouble. The experiment didn’t work out like I hoped. The most disappointing…
California Fires
The news won’t stop talking about the fires in California. They are quite substantial. Above is a satellite image if the smoke/fires that run from the suburbs of Los Angeles all the way down to San Diego.
Oh What Fun
I had a little fun today with my beloved Tivo. Actually, the fun is still in progress. Last night I did a little experimenting that required a reboot (the Tivo is a computer after all). It would allow me to…
My Utmost for His Highest
The following is taken from today’s devotional in My Utmost for His Highest by Oswald Chambers. I thought it was a particularly good commentary. Justification by faith For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the…
