THOUGHTS:

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. - Thomas Edison

SPECIAL THOUGHTS:

Before U were thought of or time had begun,
God even stuck U in the name of His son.
And each time U pray - U'll see that it's true-
U can't spell out JesUs and not include U.

U're a pretty big part of His wonderful name,
For U He was born, that's why He came.
And His great love for U is the reason He died,
It even takes U to spell crUcified.

Isn't it thrilling and splendidly grand-
He rose from the dead, with U in His plan.
The stones split away, the gold trUmpet blew,
And this word resurrection is spelled with a U.

When Jesus left earth at His upward ascension,
He felt there was one thing He just had to mention.
Go into the world and tell them it's true
That I love them all-
Just like I love U.

So many great people are spelled with a U,
Don't they have a right to know Jesus too?

It all depends now on what U will do,
He'd like them to know-
But it all starts with U.
JESUS

THIS & THAT:

SOME STUDENT COMMENTS REGARDING COLLEGE COURSES
(With apologies to our good teachers. - Richard)

"Text makes a satisfying ‘thud' when dropped on the floor."

"The class is worthwhile because I need it for the degree."

"His blackboard technique puts Rembrandt to shame."

"Someone with a knowledge of English should proofread text."

"Have you ever fallen asleep in class and awoke in another?"

"The instructor would make a good parking lot attendant."

"Text is useless; used it to kill roaches in my room."

"Help! I've fallen asleep and I can't wake up!"

"He teaches like Speedy Gonzalez on a caffeine high."

"This course kept me out of trouble from 2-4:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays."

"Information was presented like a ruptured fire hose - spraying in all directions."

"I never bought the text. My $60 was better spent on tapes."

"Text was printed on high quality paper."

Shortly after returning home from a trip to Sea World in Florida, a friend went shopping for swimsuits with her children. When she emerged from the dressing room in a contrasting black-and-white suit, her four-year-old son, C. J., exclaimed his approval: "Oh, Mommy, I love it! You look just like Shamu!"

TRIVIA:

I don't know why, but the diet 7-UP works great to remove the tar from your car! (and we drink that stuff?) I found this out one day when I set my pop on the car after a wash, and when I knocked it over, it ran down the side of the car and made the tar real soft!

[EDITOR'S NOTE: This also seems to work with Sprite, and presumably any soft beverage of the lemon-lime genre. It's really not that surprising, as citrus-based cleaners are becoming increasingly common both in the home and in industry.]
