  1. You are so correct - my mistake. I knew she wasn't the oldest though.
  2. She did a great job on that show. Hard to believe she was the youngest of the girls. She reminded me of Irene Ryan "Grannie" from Beverly Hillbillies to a point. My heart goes out to her family.
  3. 666 or 6 + 6 + 6 = 18 18 or 1 + 8 = 9 square route of 9 = 3 3 = Holy Trinity Not saying I am right - just something to think about
  4. Very interesting. It deserves some deeper research. Thanks for posting it.
  5. bothersome, liberal, overweight, obnoxious TV personality - I really feel like feasting." So Marty grabbed Rosie and...
  6. I know that this is cliche - but - If you love something - let it go. If it stays/returns, then it is meant to be. If it does not return - it was never really true love and should not be chased after. I will pray for you and yours. Brian
  7. Having joined recently - I have found that the debates and information here is really insightful. I enjoy many of the discussions and topics. Since visiting here I have found I am thinking about my own beliefs more and how similar they are to other people's beliefs. This group is just twisted enough to understand my sense of humor as well which is a bonus.
  8. I would also say about 3 or 4. My 12 year old remembers things he received for his second birthday. I could be the Autism with him or the fact that he is still young and doesn't have other things cluttering his mind.
  9. I'm good for 5 - 10 minutes. You never know when the next breath is the last.
  10. ...Marty, realizing time was running out, burst into the room. He looked at Rosie and said...
  11. Keep the faith and I'll keep praying.
  12. Keep the faith and the rest will eventually fall into place. Study hard as that is the way change is made.
  13. An amazing story - My prayers to her and her family.
  14. I am praying as well. How did the surgery go? I hope all turned out OK?
  15. I am also praying that all will be better soon for you. I too have lived in pain, but it was all my fault so I have no one to blame. You however should have good grounds for a malpractice suit if the hospital and radiologist never reported the results of the tests. Have you consulted a lawyer? I am not a fan of lawsuits in general - but it seems this was not your fault so you should consider it. Take care and enjoy life Brian
  16. I chose to become ordained because I always felt that there was something more that I was supposed to be doing with my life. I am hoping to use this as the springboard for me to start giving assistance and advice to the youth in our community. This is a low socio-economic area that I am living in and I really want to feel like I have done much more than my usual sitting back. I decided that change really does have to begin with one person and why can't it be me? I rally hope to sway some of these kids away from the drinking and drug use that they have been up to. This has gone beyond casual usage into some severe abuse issues. I have been hearing of 13 - 14 year olds having drinking/drug and sex parties already. There has to be something that can be done to provide them a better alternative. Perhaps families will be more accepting to see an ordained minister trying to help as being normal. I can always hope anyway. God bless. Brian
  17. My question - as a newbie - what do the different colors of clergy shirts stand for, or is it all a matter of personal choice? My wife told me to get black, but I didn't know if the colors of the shirts had meaning like the stoles do. Any advice? I really want to look the part now that I am ordained if I ever get called upon to perform any duties. Thanks All Brian
