~~~~~~~ THOUGHTS:

The true test of moral courage is the ability to ignore an insult. - Unknown, - Quips & Quotes, E. C. McKenzie

~~~~~~~ SPECIAL THOUGHTS:

The Bible must be the invention of good men or angels, bad men or devils, or of God. It could not be the invention of good men or angels; for they neither would nor could make a book, and tell lies all the time they were writing it, saying "Thus saith the Lord" when it was their own invention. It could not be the invention of bad men or devils; for they would not make a book which commands all duty, forbids all sin, and condemns their souls to hell for all eternity. Therefore I draw this conclusion, that the Bible must be given by divine inspiration. - John Wesley, "The Words of John Wesley"

~~~~~~~ KEEP SMILING:

Ever notice how irons have a setting for "permanent" press? I don't get it .... - Steven Wright

~~~~~~~ TRIVIA:

To get rid of those smelly odors from shoes in the closet, place them in a plastic bag, close tightly, and put it in the freezer for at least two days. The cold kills the bacteria causing the odors.
