Miscellaneous things that I post. Could be deep. Could be shallow. Could be sad. Could be funny. Might even be true.

April Fools

If they had celebrated April Fool’s day back when Jesus was around, do you think he would have participated?  I’m thinking there is no doubt.  He may have even started the whole thing.  When you get to Heaven, just ask the two guys who took a walk on the road to Emmaus. See Luke 24:13-32

A Promise Kept

It’s warm and sunny outside.  Spring has sprung in Atlanta, just like God promised it would. “While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, Cold and heat, Winter and summer, And day and night Shall not cease.”        –  Genesis 8:22 I just knew it was coming.  Remember this post?  The Trade Off

Old Letters, Old Habits

I found a letter in the pocket of an old coat.  Evidently, the writer had been going through a rough time and was appealing to his Father for help.  As you can see in the excerpt below, I suspect that he has trouble trying to keep everybody happy.   Somebody needs to tell him it just can’t

I Need a Favor

I told a friend we were looking to hire someone at work.  Given the unemployment rate, I thought I was doing a good thing.  Perhaps the friend has other friends who need a job.  I was doing him a favor, right?  Not so.  It turns out the friend is in the business of finding jobs

Someone I Can’t Resist?

Today’s post has more questions than answers, but since this blog is “various stuff” from my life, that’s OK, because I certainly don’t have all the answers.  There is a boy who, along with me, wishes we had an answer to this one.  We are searching for it together.  Perhaps that is enough reason for

Who Needs Angels?

My son brought a dog home.  It wasn’t his dog.  He was doing a friend a favor and watching the dog for the week-end.  The dog’s name was “Angel”, but she wasn’t.  The dog wasn’t an angel at all.  She used our floor for a bathroom several times and she did her share of whining

Whose Woods These Are

I suppose this post is a bit silly, but sometimes I can’t help myself.  Anyway, as I thought about it on the way to work this morning, I couldn’t help but sing the Michael Frye song:  Jesus, Be the Center.   With apologies to Robert Frost . . . Whose woods these are I think

Now That’s a First!

If you have ever spent much time in an airport, you know that just sitting and watching the people can be one of the best ways to pass the time.  The airport is full of all kinds of people, coming and going.  It’s the perfect spot to sit and watch the world waltz by.

The Hostess

The Thai Cuisine restaurant was a great place to eat.  I discovered it years ago right after it opened.   They had good food at a good price so I went often.   I told others about it.   After a few months, the place got busier and it became harder to get a table.  They had a thriving lunch-time

A Phone Call

My flight has been cancelled.  So said the lady on the phone.  Given that the flight was to arrive in earthquake ravaged Port Au Prince, Haiti, I expected as much.  In fact, you may not believe me, but I half expected something like this 6 month’s ago.  I even told my wife I just didn’t “feel” like
