Sunday Meditations
"My Unfailing Friend" by Thomas D. Risk
What a sweet and blessed feeling
When I wake up ev'ry day
Just to feel God's presence near me,
Just to know He's there to stay.
Oh, I know I am not worthy
Of His tender love and care,
Still I have His precious promise
That He's with me ev'rywhere.
There will always be the shadows
And we can't escape the night,
Still I know He watches o'er me,
I am always in His sight;
Though the storms may rage around me,
Still the Lord will help me stand,
There's a sweet and precious calmness
In the hollow of His hand."
"As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you. Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:5b, 9b

Game/ Song Title Chain -- Part 2
The original thread is out of commission, and I am going into withdrawal not being about to post in it LOLOL
So I am starting a new one -- I'll pick it up where we left off.
First, to review for anyone who is new isn't familiar and is new to the game, I will copy and paste the instructions from the old one:
---------------------------------------- ------------------
I want this to be a place to check-in, say hello, and advance the game.
1.I will list 2 song titles that when connected make an interesting or unusual statement.
2. The 2nd person uses my 2nd title and hooks a new title to it.
3. A title chain is created in this way.
*Feel free to include the name of the singer, trivia, memories, or feelings about the song.
Let's have fun.
---------------------------------------- ------
OK, let's get started -- hope this one takes off like the other one....

Can We Agree On This ?
In your life you hae met people you didn't like right off . You have met some you liked right away . Then there are those who had to prove themselves before you warmed up to them . Is that right ? It is for me anyway .
Obama was one who had to prove himself . He kept shooting himself in the foot over and over again . I finally took the position that I didn't like him . There is nothing the man can do at this point to win me over . His explanations weren't enough for me when he had the chance . His wife , as are all spouses , is a liability .
I would like to point out that I was a Perot Supporter at one time . I honestly felt he could have been elected at one time had he asked Jesse Jackson to run as Vice President with him . I was a lot less informed at that time . I didn't know Jesse was a convicted felon .

The three word game 1.0
found this on another site...looked interesting...All you do is add a reply of three words. It goes on and on and gets pretty dang funny.
For instance I might type something like:
All I did...And the next person continues it with three words.....and so forth.
So jump in and here goes......

The Dalton Gang's Last Raid, 1892
Around 9:30 the morning of October 5, 1892 five members of the Dalton Gang (Grat Dalton, Emmett Dalton, Bob Dalton, Bill Power and Dick Broadwell) rode into the small town of Coffeyville, Kansas. Their objective was to achieve financial security and make
robbing two banks. From the beginning, their audacious plan went astray. The hitching post where they intended to tie their horses had been torn down due to road repairs. This forced the gang to hitch their horses in a near-by alley - a fateful decision.
To disguise their identity, (Coffeyville was the Dalton's hometown) two of the Daltons wore false beards and wigs. Despite this, the gang was recognized as they crossed the town's wide plaza, split up and entered the two banks. Suspicious townspeople watched through the banks' wide front windows as the robbers pulled their guns. Someone on the street shouted, "The bank is being robbed!" and the citizens quickly armed themselves - taking up firing positions around the banks.
The ensuing firefight lasted less than fifteen minutes. A brief moment in time in which four townspeople lost their lives, four members of the Dalton Gang were gunned down and a small Kansas town became part of history.
