  1. We have Alpaca Farms here in Maryland as well. The First time I ever encountered alpacas was at the state fair here. They had two with haircuts like french poodles and I fell in love with the animals immediately and adopted them as my avatar. I have even thought about infesting in them

  2. I didn't mention anything about fear? (2 Timothy 1:7) , The apostle Paul wrote this in his final days. Prayer would be for guidance of what to do in my final days, not fearing, but having the desire to meet any remaining purpose which the Lord might have use of me. For me, love for God is saying "not my will, but thine be done".

    Dan you said "I'd be more concerned about where I was going instead of what I was leaving."

    concerned (adj) - Bing Dictionary

    anxious or worried: worried or apprehensive, particularly about something such as a situation that is developing or that has newly arisen

  3. I think most people would spend their last 30 days attending to what they love the most in life. If they love the world, they would spend the time doing worldly things. If they love others, they would spend the time with those they love. If they love themselves, they would spend the time and their money on themselves. If they love God, they would probably spend most of the time on their knees. I personally would fall into the last category, I'd be more concerned about where I was going instead of what I was leaving.

    That last line tells me then that you have never fully experienced the love of God and that you would spend your last days in fear. But that isn't surprsing considering the basis of your belief system :)

  4. Being well-mannered, how important is it to you, and how do you think does it tie in with raising your children?

    I am thinking of things like social etiquette, business etiquette, table manners, the art of conversation, courtesy to others etc.

    Aren't these things relative to one's social class. The normal person could teach what they believe to be good every day manners to their children but many of these teachings would still seem crass compared to the type of manners used in Higher Social Circles like Buckingham Palace.

  5. What worried me the most about this video is how close to the Raid™ spray the guy's mouth and nose was when spraying...not the brightest bulb in the package!

    Meh, these little critters are nothin'....When I was in the Phillipines, I found out that the cockroaches are organized into gangs, wear 42 long leather jackets, comb their antennae into Pompadours and carry chains! I got mugged by one of their street gangs and yeah, I agree, the feeling of those pointy, barbed legs in my face still bothers me to this day! They beat the tar outta me 'cause I only had $3 US and a couple thousand Thailaneze bhat on me...about .60¢

    They didn't find the $100 in 20's I had in my sneaker! I spent that on therapy.

    Blessings of Peace,

    PS: If ya think that's a big roach, the rats wear 54 long leather jackets, comb their head fur into Pompadours and carry clubs! One of our shipmates was last seen being followed by one of those gangs. Rest in peace, SK3 Milano, you are missed!

    I can actually believe that. Searching for work one year I worked 4 days a week on Section 8 homes until I found a job. In different areas of town the roaches behaved very differently. They love to eat the wallpaper paste and most homes I worked on would be filled with them. In what we call Pigtown here the roaches would actually attack when trying to scrape away the loose wallpaper, unlike other neighborhoods where they would scatter the best they could though they had little room to scatter anywhere there were so many of them.

    One would get use to hundreds of them falling on you when tearing off the wallpaper but one day during lunch I found a halfway clean place to rest and eat my lunch only to feel something crawling across my neck. I reached for it and it was a very large centipede.....I couldn't take it any more I stood up and quit and walked off that job forever.

  6. After just a few minutes of youtube videos and these people are starting to really worry me. The last place I want a roach is in my mouth or my microwave. At least my microwave is still safe from them, as I'm sorry to say I had a roach run across my inside lip once after accepting a cola from a date in a house infested with them. Still sends shivers down my spine remembering that sensation. :(
