Chem trails!#%&*!!

Today in our 'world class city' and 'International Port' of Lansing(even though we don't have any water around us), we are getting gassed in an overwhelming amount. Supposedly, the gases are to limit the number of 'apple moths'. I guess the people, or should I say 'useless eaters', are more of a threat than a little moth. Here is a list of what is in these trails: Aluminum, barium titanate salt mixture, polymer fibers, arsenic, cadmium, lead, selenium, and silver. Maybe not too bad unless you're overexposed to them. But don't worry, there's just a few "SIDE EFFECTS" SUCH AS: a persistent hacking cough, upper respitory and intestinal distress, pneumonia, extreme fatigue, lethargy, dizziness, disorientation, splitting headaches, aching joints and muscles, nosebleeds, diarrhea, bloody stools, depression, anxiety, loss of bladder control, and nervous tics. But don't worry, we'll be OK. Right? Check out this site, and watch the first video, at least. Maybe we should be using Holy Water when we venture outside.

33 years

Today is a blessed day in our house. The wife and I have been married 33 years. She is one of those who helped me into the Church, also. I am totally grateful for her and for the Faith!

33 is a pretty interesting number. Christ lived 33 years. His holy Mother, Mary, after she hit 33 looked at the same for the rest of her life, according to St. Mary of Agreda in the CITY OF GOD.

Hopefully, our marriage can be the same as it is now until we die, faithful to the Truth and the Church.

Lord, help us persevere.

There's SNOW time like the present

Guess what I've been doing the few days? That's right! I blew snow in the morning, so that my people could get to work. I blew snow in the afternoon so they could get home again. I was about to relax in the evening and take an Epsom salts bath, which feels soooo good, and guess what happened then. The snow plow came and filled in all of the approaches. By the time I got my BIG thrower going, a second one came and made it really heavy. But, the BIG RED cuts right through it like a hot knife going through butter.

Oh well. I still got my soak in. It was just later than I had planned. And so it goes.

The Right to Life

Sunday marked the 38th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade, which allowed the mass holocaust of unborn babies. Our priest on Sunday said some things which struck a cord with me, since I am adopted. He said that every embryo has been foreordained to serve some purpose in the eyes of God Almighty. When their little lives are snuffed out by the tragic "law" of abortion, they are not able to fulfill what God had for their future achievements. When people ask why there isn't a cure for certain illnesses (ie. Cancer), they could be told that, "the person who would have found the cure had been aborted". Or, something on this order. That is very strong to think about! Tens of millions of future people, some that were set to do great things, snuffed out. I used to carry a sign at Right to Life marches which stated, "ABORTION sucks the Life out of a woman!", with the word 'ABORTION' in neon orange. Or I said to one woman who was entering, "Make sure they get all of the pieces out so you don't get an infection." I'd get some strange looks, but I hope they thought about it and changed their minds. I would also get some strange looks at work when I would have one of those models of a 10 week old fetus on my desk. When asked about it , I would tell them that this is what a 10 week old fetus looks like, even before the woman knew she was pregnant. It has a heartbeat!!!

If testing had been prevalent in the days of my adoption, discovering all of the health problems that I have had, I very well could have aborted. I think about this every January 23rd, and am entirely grateful that my birth mom chose the path she did. Even though my adoptive parents are passed on, I have no desire to search out my birth mother, since she made that decision and I have respect for that.

The ONLY 'choice' that woman really has is this, "To do what God expects of you or not!"

Lord, have mercy on us

Prayers needed, please

A long-time friend of mine has recently found out that after he beat the cancer in his leg, it has returned in his pelvis, and near his lung. Both spots are inoperable and incurable, something that he did NOT want to hear. He is not Catholic, but he does seem to BELIEVE! He was told that maybe he has 2 years left. I am asking for a miracle for him, while also knowing that it is God's will. So, I'm asking prayers for him, Jim M., for any one who reads this site along with S.C. and ST. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

The 3rd Sunday after Epiphany has a part that we hear every time we go to Mass. When the centurion came to Jesus, worried about his servant not doing so great, but believing in what he knew Jesus could do. He said to Him, after Jesus said that He would to the house, that he was unworthy that Jesus should come to his house, but to only say the word, and with this he was confident that Jesus would do a healing, which is exactly what happened. May we not be of those who have to see or feel something to believe, but to believe first that we see with the eyes of FAITH.

Lord, help our unbelief.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help, pray for Jim

Wally World

Isn't it interesting that when Hu is here from China, our (most favored trading partner thanks to Billy Clinton), that Ms. O. proclaims that Wally World, aka Wal Mart, will now seek to lower its prices on fruit and veggies so that our kiddies will have a healthier diet because they are so fat. Wally World has for years proclaimed that its main objective is to have all of its products come from China. This is the main reason that the US is struggling with anything. Can you find anything that is NOT made in China? Wally World, as well as soooo many corporations, have sold out the American worker in favor of bigger profits.

It's just my opinion, and I am unanimous in it.

Hot enough for ya?

For those who think, "I don't want to get involved", I offer this quote from someone in the past. And, I used to have an older friend who would say, "Lukewarm ain't so hot". Here's the quote:

"The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in times of great moral crises, maintain their neutrality."

Dante Alighieri
