Easter is a celebration of... Easter holiday, ...
Easter is a celebration of...

Easter holiday, is a celebration of the resurrection of Christ!
Jesus Christ, The Son of God, bled and died for us in a sacrifice.

This Spring day's celebrated, generally in the month of April.
All of the bright and pretty colors, of the Easter outfits with frills.

Women and children will wear their Easter bonnets.
In the Spring, you'll hear the various musical sonnets.

April will bring many rain showers.
That'll bring us various beautiful flowers.

One special flower for this day is the Easter Lily.
It's color is white, and yet snowy & milky.

The birds will sing their songs of praise.
As we begin to feel the warmth of the sun's rays.

As we say "Goodbye" to the winter's gloom,
The flowers and trees have already begun to bloom.

All of life's beauty, The Lord created, for us all to share.
Spring breezes begin to flow, sending fragrances through the air.

The winter's thawing will let the rivers, lakes, and streams rise and flow.
The beauty of the Earth will make us all feel aglow!

Farmers and gardeners will start to hoe.
And then they'll begin to sow.

On Sundays, we'll hear the various church bells ring.
Let's be grateful for the LORD, let's rejoice and sing.

If it wasn't for the Lord, we wouldn't have anything

A true friend is someone who thinks
you are a good egg
even though they know
you are slightly cracked." :)

"This is for you, Mr. Gorski."


"

My minister told the congregation this true story about Neal Armstrong . Please, enjoy......it's funny.When Neal was a young boy, he was playing ball in his yard with some of his friends. One of the boys hit the ball and it broke a window of Neal's next door neighbors, Mr. and Mrs.Gorski. (sp?) Neal walked to the window to pick up the ball when he heard Mrs. Gorski say,"You want sex, you'll get sex when the boy next door walks on the Moon."Thus, when Neal walked on the Moon in 1969 and made his famous statement to the world, "One step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Also, he said,"This is for you, Mr. Gorski." which was only heard by NASA employees. They scrambled eveywhere trying to determine who was Mr. Gorski. Neal never told why he said this until years later when Mr. Gorski passed away

The Perspective of the World in 1955...

----- It wasen't that long ago I remember ------DO YOU?

It doesn't seem like that long ago.................. for 1 or 2 of
us. Maybe 3...

Only 52 years ago!
Comments made in the year 1955..
'I'll tell you one thing, if things keep going the way they are, it's
going to be impossible to buy a week's groceries for $20.'

'Have you seen the new cars coming out next year? It won't be long
before $2000 will only buy a used one.'

'If cigarettes keep going up in price, I'm going to quit. A quarter
a pack is
ridiculous.'

'Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging a dime just
to mail a letter?'


'If they raise the minimum wage to $1, nobody will be able to hire
outside help at the store.'

'When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would
someday cost 29 cents a gallon. Guess we'd be better off leaving the car
in the garage.'

'Kids today are impossible. Those duck tail hair cuts make it
impossible to stay
groomed. Next thing you know, boys will be wearing their hair as
long as the girls.'

I'm afraid to send my kids to the movies any more. Ever since they
let Clark Gable get by with saying 'damn' in 'Gone With The Wind,' it
seems every new movie has either 'hell' or 'damn' in it.

'I read the other day where some scientist thinks it's possible to
put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have some
fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas '

'Did you see where some baseball player just signed a contract for
$75,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me if someday
they'll be making more
than the president.'

'I never thought I'd see the day all our kitchen appliances would be
electric. They are even making electric typewriters now.'

'It's too bad things are so tough nowadays. I see where a few married
women are having to work to make ends meet.'

'It won't be long before young couples are going to have to hire
someone to watch their kids so they can both work.'

'Marriage doesn't mean a thing any more; those Hollywood stars seem
to be getting divorced at the drop of a hat.'

'I'm just afraid the Volkswagen car is going to open the door to a
whole lot of foreign business.'

'Thank goodness I won't live to see the day when the Government takes
half our income in taxes. I sometimes wonder if we are electing the
best people to congress.'

'The drive-in restaurant is convenient in nice weather, but I
seriously doubt they will ever catch on.'

'There is no sense going to Lincoln or Omaha anymore for a weekend.
It costs nearly $15 a night to stay in a hotel.'

'No one can afford to be sick any more; $35 a day in the hospital is
too rich for my blood.'

'If they think I'll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it.'


Know friends who would get a kick out of these?

friggatriskaidekaphobia


I have it. Do you suffer from it? I don't walk under ladders, skip cracks in sidewalks, say a prayer when I see a black cat and I hide on Friday the 13th. Don't ask me where? I don't think it's contagious but it does influence your behavior and those who wish to share you in their lives...sorry, family and friends. Thought...maybe, I've viewed too many Monk TV shows.
Surely,I'm not suffering from Monkiitis. Oh,well, being a little Obsessive Compulsive places me in the "norm" of today's society. On second thought, nobody has ever accused me of being NORMAL.

Five Facts About Friday the 13th


If Friday the 13th is unlucky, then 2009 is an unusually unlucky year. This week's Friday the 13th is one of three to endure this year.


The first came last month. The next is in November. Such a rare triple-threat occurs only once every 11 years.


The origin of the link between bad luck and Friday the 13th is murky. The whole thing might date to Biblical times (the 13th guest at the Last Supper betrayed Jesus). By the Middle Ages, both Friday and 13 were considered bearers of bad fortune. In modern times, the superstition permeates society.


Here are five of our favorite Friday-the-13th facts:


1. Fear of Friday the 13th - one of the most popular myths in science - is called paraskavedekatriaphobia as well as friggatriskaidekaphobia. Triskaidekaphobia is fear of the number 13.


2. Many hospitals have no room 13, while some tall buildings skip the 13th floor and some airline terminals omit Gate 13.


3. President Franklin D. Roosevelt would not travel on the 13th day of any month and would never host 13 guests at a meal. Napoleon and President Herbert Hoover were also triskaidekaphobic, with an abnormal fear of the number 13.


4. Mark Twain once was the 13th guest at a dinner party. A friend warned him not to go. "It was bad luck," Twain later told the friend. "They only had food for 12." Superstitious diners in Paris can hire a quatorzieme, or professional 14th guest.


5. The number 13 suffers from its position after 12, according to numerologists who consider the latter to be a complete number - 12 months in a year, 12 signs of the zodiac, 12 gods of Olympus, 12 labors of Hercules, 12 tribes of Israel, 12 apostles of Jesus, 12 days of Christmas and 12 eggs in a dozen.


Pythagorean legacy


Meanwhile the belief that numbers are connected to life and physical things - called numerology - has a long history.


"You can trace it all the way from the followers of Pythagoras, whose maxim to describe the universe was 'all is number,'" says Mario Livio, an astrophysicist and author of "The Equation That Couldn't Be Solved" (Simon & Schuster, 2005). Thinkers who studied under the famous Greek mathematician combined numbers in different ways to explain everything around them, Livio said.


In modern times, numerology has become a type of para-science, much like the meaningless predictions of astrology, scientists say.


"People are subconsciously drawn towards specific numbers because they know that they need the experiences, attributes or lessons associated with them, that are contained within their potential," says professional numerologist Sonia Ducie. "Numerology can 'make sense' of an individual's life (health, career, relationships, situations and issues) by recognizing which number cycle they are in, and by giving them clarity."


However, mathematicians dismiss numerology, saying it lacks any scientific merit.


"I don't endorse this at all," Livio said, when asked to comment on the popularity of commercial numerology. Seemingly coincidental connections between numbers will always appear if you look hard enough, he said.
