To perform and/or to not perform? That is the question.AMEN!

REVERBERATIONS

"I do not accomodate double standards where the protection of human life is concerned.For example,I have always thought it strange that wardens in national parks have rifles,when they are less likely to need firearms than the average park visitor,such as myself,who does not know a brown bear from a black bear and is forbidden from carryng a gun.Well,the next time I'm crossing into Jasper,I'll be notifying my attorney to start the clock ticking on a considerable lawsuit in the event that I'm attacked by a bear.My life is not secondary to anyone's"...........................AMEN!

Bragging rights on Temperature.

Hey brothers and sisters out there,if u want 2 brag about the temperature in your yard don't set up a thermometer in the sun and then expect me to believe when u said it got to +44 C.It only got to +36 C for real.

Fullfilling Promises

Greetings readers,family,sisters and brothers,relatives,friends,spirits,GOD,JESUS CHRIST.......Amen!

Yes, sometimes when u r trying 2 think of a title for your blog breaky(spelling) takes a long time! A spoon,what I would do for a spoon.They r all in the sink waiting for a 17 year old to wash them.Thats why it takes so long for brecky eating strawberry mini-wheats with a fork and I like lots of milk.

The power of blogging,leading commentors on a wait of suspence and to the close proximity of death itself.It almost feels godly. Amen!

The patience to wait.A good reference to patience is said in GALATIONS 5:22 "But the fruit of the spirit is love,joy,peace,patience,kindness,goodness,faithfulness," Amen!

Ah! Yes! the rescue.Black coffee(it was Tim Hortons).Best excuse to miss out on 4 1/2 hours of chores at home.The wife made me do it,I wasn't going to argue on Easter weekend.Total cost of the rescue..............about $175,but hey any good samaritan would have done it.

U learn something new with each rescue,how to drink straight coffee with no half/half creamo and/or honey.I'm 53 1/2 years old and I had to rescue 3 men with enough balls to suggest to me to drink my coffee black.They knew what they were doing,it was Tim Hortons coffee,whow!whoa!even.


On the topic of men,they're not shy either.Then they ask me to transport this overweight,overheated 4 1/2 HP Merc outboard.Later I realized why.They wanted to fish on the way back instead of bailing water from a overloaded flat bottom boat.

Once a camper always a camper.Safety first,pleasure second.One of the men was wearing steeltoad safety boots.I salute u! Randy Johnson would salute u!

There's a few bloggers out the in computer space that like lists so here forth come one.

Discussions during camping and/or a rescue with men only:
1.fishing and/or hunting stories.
2.the ladies
3.any truck is a good truck until you have a chance to trade it for an older high-performance mustang.
4.top ten foods-apples,almonds,brocoli,blueberries,red beans,salmon,spinach,sweet potatoe,vegetable juice and wheat
germ.
5.where's the closest drive-in movie theatre for the lady.
6.what will we do when the killer asteroid arrives?
7.all i want for christmas is a harley-davidson,and a used one will do.

FOOTBALL! Go Lions Go!

Its time to pray:
Our GOD in heaven,hallowed be your name,your kingdom come,your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.Give us today our daily bread.Forgive us our debts,as we also have forgiven our debtors.And lead us noy into temptation,but deliver us from the evil one. Amen!

Its happening,as i draft on my draft blog at 6;52;48 and counting inabout 1/2 hour i'll have my bag of popcorn,tall pepsi no ice and a chocalat bar for desert and watching "Wild Hogs" for the first time.Ive heard from reliable sources to watch it twice or four times to keep laughing,I'll be the judge of that.

Fishing coming up. Gotta (luv that word) hike into my favouite lake again and again and again at least 20 times this summer,oh my that means 20 cans of mosquito "OFF".its worth it.Oh my gotta search the wallet for $37.50 for permission to fish.i'll make it worth it.

Approximately 1 1/2 months to may long,WE should start packing or at least piling stuff in the garages.Come on don't wait till the night before.

Its about 9;48;32,just got(gotta luv that word) back from "Wild Hogs".Yes i would see it again just to catch more of the funny parts that i seem to have missed because half the people were laughing and i wasn't. If anybody finds a leather condom helmit on Ebay please notify me.thanxs.

Batallion May long fishing derby is still on. $50.00 of my money will become your money if you are the winner.

I promised myself that i should post this blog today,but its late by my rules,I'm tired,sleepy and want to dream of riding a harley in new mexico. This next topic may sound different, I wanted to tipe out my testimony on this entry today but GOD suggested to me not to.he didn't say why and since i was sleepy and tired I wasn't going to ask him.......AMEN! And goodnight. TITE LINES 2 U ALL.

2 all u blog readers out there that read this thingy,and depending what time some of u's got 2 bed,its either good morning 2 u,or its good afternoon and u've just slept half of an ice fishing day away,or its good evening and give yourself a break and read this blog tommorow morning.

predictions.i have one.we will harvest(shoot,kill,aniallate,down)an elk this year.then we will phone up charlie,blind fold him and he will help us pack out the quarters-11/2 kilometres,register online 4 pics of blindfolded charlie packing over the windfalls.

apology's and asking 4 forgiveness.I would like 2 apologize 4 calling those 3 hikers on mt.seymour idiots.realizing the mood that i get into sometimes and seeing a picture in the paper the other day of a broken,bruised father and his son with a special lokk in his eyes made me start a debate with GOD.if it means anything coming from me let me remind u's....................................GOD is tough.................but after a seemingly endless debate,GOD is fair.AMEN.

an opinion coming on here shortly 4 all u 4x4 enthusiasts(borrowers 2).getting stuck in a 4x4 is not embarrassing,its exciting.i've got(gotta luv that word) stuck many times and every time its a different learning curve.getting stuck in a 2x4 is embarrassing because your next step is 2 walk karl knows how far to beg,borrow or steal a TIMBERJACK (CAT,lets not go there) skidder.

after 26 days some dude that hangs out in the rockies where most of the elk are,did an update,prayers do get answered.AMEN AGAIN.in his long awaited update he mentioned 'MAY LONG".that got(gotta luv that word)my dander up,but not in the way that probably most of u's would think.if it could mean anything coming from me the "MAY LONG" has been suffering attendance wise.i,we,and no doubt all of u's have ideas and opinions on that.i know for sure that i have to collect and organize all my balls to have a debate(discussion) with GOD on my idea to boost the participation at "MAY LONG".

Insight = Perception into the true or hidden nature of things.Insightful adj.

Now i no why i like watching Nature of Things on T.V.with the volume up there so the neighbours can learn something 2.Perception,that sounds easy enough,we should all be allowed 2 percieve what we can from anything.In the world we live in now the word true has a big weight load on it directing it toward some drain hole,our job is 2 get rid of that weight so the trueness can lift off and cover the world with Christianity.Hidden,oh my ,i don't think my 2 tiping fingers can handle that 1 2day,thats a lot of blogging just 2 cover a preferred hidden word like hidden,another time.if it means anything coming from me lets be true and go 4 it with tite lines and enjoy the flight.BLAST OFF!

"Slow Down And Live"

Last night i stumbled face first into my debate about parts of the Sunday Service yesterday.Felt beat up and lousy afterwards.Sleep much?No!Thanxs 4 asking.Woke up today,grabbed the"Our Daily Bread" booklet,found the new day on the NEW YEAR.It had a familiar title........"Slow Down And Live"

"Many of our New Year's resolutions may actually accelerate our pace of life instead of helping us to slow down.In a quest for greater productivity and efficiency,we overschedule our days,then rush through meals,drive impatiently,and wonder why the joy of living eludes us.
Carol Odell,who writes a business advice column,says that slowing down can positively affect our lives at work and at home.She believes that rushing can cloud our judgement and cause us to overlook important things and valuable people.Carol encourages everyone to slow down,and even suggests the radical idea of welcoming red traffic lights and using the waiting time to meditate.
In Psalm 1,there is no hint of a frenzied pace.It descibes a person who enjoys the blessing of God.Instead of thinking and acting like those who rarely consider spiritual matters,"His delight is in the law of the LORD,and in His law he meditates day and night"(v.2).The result is a fruitful life and a well-nourished soul(v.3).
Isaiah wrote,"You will keep him in perfect peace,whose mind is stayed on You,because he trusts in You"(Isa.26:3).Just for today,try thinking about that verse whenever you have to wait.Isn't it time for all of us to slow down and live?"

My 2 tiping fingers r sore now,done deal.And thanxs GOD,i don't feel beat up anymore after reading and typing this.the bruises r there but they will go away.AMEN!
