Wings of a Dove

Hit-Or-Miss

Kittens
Our cat had her babies yesterday.  Our outdoor cat gave birth to her three little ones inside our house on our bed buried between two pillows.  I guess it was a quiet, warm, and protected location, but that choice of location also had me at the laundromat late last night washing our gigantic, two-ton comforter in the super-sized industrial washing machine.  The place was empty, but I was able to catch the Diane Sawyer special about the 50th anniversary of The Sound of Music.  Woohoo!  The mama and kitties are doing fine.

Eddie Vedder
Have you listened to "Even Flow" by Pearl Jam lately?  I really think that became the title of the song because it's just about the only word that the producer could understand when Vedder sang it.

Primitive Church
Question:  Shouldn't a primitive church have to use primitive tools?  Where is the line drawn?  I drove by a primitive church property a couple of days ago and they were cutting the grass with a modern zero-turn lawn tractor.  Where's the man-powered, whirling-blade push lawn mower?

T-Shirt Fail

Anyone else see the problem here?  I mean, I see what they were going for, but a little more thought should have gone into this design before it was put on a shirt.

Pizza Hut
In other news, it looks like someone drove through the wall at Pizza Hut.  Never a dull moment in New Boston!

On another note, I read the first five books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) over the past three months.  I began September 1 and finished at the end of November.   I was reading at a slow pace, a little each day.  My point is this: you can read the Bible.  It doesn't take that long.  Begin today!
