WITandWISDOM(tm) - February 16, 2000 ~~~~~~~ THOUGHTS: When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing, then we truly live. - Greg Anderson (E-zine: MOTIVATIONAL MAILER Mailto:motivational_mailer-subscribe@topica.com) ~~~~~~~ SPECIAL THOUGHTS: At our church our social committee leaders suggested that those with bread-making machines bring them to the church after vespers All the machines were loaded, and even a few hand made batches were placed in the ovens. While the bread was processing and baking, we played table games and visited. When the bread was finished (we did sample a little ourselves), we wrapped and delivered it with little notes of encouragement to shut-ins, missing members, and other friends of the church. It was a great "dual purpose" social, and we thought other churches might find it food for thought. - By Bryant and Joy Davidson ~~~~~~~ THIS & THAT: A faithful couple got the bad news from their doctor. They couldn't have any children. On the way home from the Doctor they were led to drop by to see their pastor to ask for prayer. The Pastor ran an auto repair shop on the side, so they dropped by the shop. After they explained the situation, the pastor was led to pray for them on the spot. He looked around, grabbed a can of three-in-one oil and quickly blessed it to anoint them. Sure enough about 9 months later they had triplets. The couple once again showed up at the pastor's study and as soon as the woman saw the pastor she ran up to him, threw her arms around him and gave him the biggest hug. "What was that all about"? He ask. She replied "I'm just glad you used three-in-one oil and not WD-40."

She came into the Family Room as I was watching TV. I guess I stared at her funny because she said, "I just set my hair." The last thing I remember saying was, "Oh, really? And what time does it go off ?"

But beyond that, Ditto.com presents a whole different way of searching for anything on the Net. Type in the subject you're looking for. Instead of bringing up pages of text links, Ditto.com gives you pages of small images (about twice the size of a standard postage stamp). Click on an image from the results page to jump to the site where the image resides. If you don't find what you're looking for, click on Ditto Detective. This "search assistant" then crawls the Web, hunting. If it finds the image you're looking for, you'll get an e-mail notice (usually within 24 hours). - Peninsula Daily News, Access Internet Magazine, November 14, 1999 |
