No SALE.

Apparently the people that wanted our house didn't get preapproved and were denied the loan.

We continue to wait for God's timing.

Where did the global warming go?








Suddenly reality hits. Yes, it is cold here in the fridged North East. What happened to the 60's of a week ago Saturday? Did you guys stop using your aerosol hair spray or sell your SUV? Come on. I was planning on building a year round ocean beach front resort up by Mt. Washington after the glaciers fell in. Oh, well, I guess I'll stay inside and drink some delicious California Orange Juice.

Anna's Accident

Okay. Details on my daughters accident. My wife and I were sitting in our living room watching TV and the kids were in the den watching their shows on the little screen. We had taken all the Christmas decorations down, but hadn't put them away because there had been a minor icestorm the day before and there was lots a slick spots about. My oldest decided he would move the Christas tree pole. Now we have a fake Christmas tree which surpises most Main-ards. It was heavier than he expected and it fell on my daughters fore head. Right about here left eye. It's very odd to see how different people react to events in different ways. My oldest went, held my daughter, and yelled for me and my younger son ran off and hid. I was the first to arrive and panicked just a bit. This scared my wife worse than what any of my kids had done. Her head was bleeding moderately. My wife held her and I ran around getting towels to put on the wound. My niece is a nurse. She lives 6 doors down. I called her she came down and helped us dress the wound. I decided to take her to the hospital because I hated for it to scar worse than I expect it would. Anna was very brave through it all. When they gave her the local annestetic I grabbed her legs and mom grabbed her hands when she flinched. I hated that part. They sowed her up with just three stiches. After the stiches we bragged on how brave she was. She told us it didn't hurt that bad except for the part were daddy squeezed her legs too hard. Apparently I forgot to let go after she flinched and had been squeezing her the whole time. The doctor told us to come back in 5 days to have the stitches removed. She'll be fine. Really.

Top Ten Junk Science Moments for 2006

Yes, I'm a science nut. I love to learn FACTS about the world around me. I don't like lies. Scientist of this day have become puppets of society. True science is a slave to facts. I like this article about science gone wrong. You really have to read it first before you read this post.


1. Some Real Inconvenient Falsehood.
Just cause he "invented" the internet doesn't make Al Snore any smarter than the other dummies that believe that garbage about "Global Warming". I just moved to Maine. If there is Global Warming, I'm all for it. Please pass the aerosol can please.

2. Board of Health or Bored of Science?

Now who is pro life and who is pro choice? I happen to like trans-fats when I can get them and it's non of your business.

3. What Hurricane Season?
I know the drive by media was frothing at the mouth for another New Orleans type tragedy. NOAA said there was only a 5% chance of a below normal hurricane season. Well, if they were so wrong about what will happen this year, how in the name of Bugs Q. Bunny do they pertend to know anything about the future or even the unrecorded past?

4. Day of Reckoning for DDT Foes?

DDT or malaria carrying mosquitoes and starvation. Hmmm. This is a hard one Montey Hall. W.H.O. do you think you are?

5.
Cosmic ray study fails to penetrate lead-lined media.
I mean look what they did to Ben Grimm.

6.
Stem cell fraud and futility.
This is so typical of leftists. They mask their real goal with catch phrases and spokespeople so much that the truth is meaningless. I mean I liked Michael J. Fox as that Alex Keaton kid, but then I found out he really wasn't a Republican. He only played one on TV.

7. Low-fat diet myth busted.
Once again stay out my bed room and my kitchen.

8. Woodpecker Racket.
Ok. I've been preaching this for some time. We don't know what is even on our neighbor hoods, let alone the whole planet. It really is a big place. Also, one thing I learned in High School science is that you cannot prove a universal negative. When with scientist realize their arrogance makes them even more foolish. "A fool hath said in his heart there is no God."

9. Food police indict SpongeBob Squarepants.
Now these folks better stay away from Count Chocula, Franken-berry, and Boo Berry, 'Cause they'll Snap, Crackel, Pop their neck. I think their GRRRREat. Oh brother.....

10. California’s Not-so-deadly Air.
I think these Holly wood nut jobs deserve LA. They live on a different planet than you and me. I wish they would pool their money, buy a rocket ship, and move back home.

Oh, and Merry Christmas to all. Praise the Father for his wonder gift to us through his Son, Jesus Christ who is worthy of all praise. Now that's a fact.

We're all connected....Again.

I finally got my internet up at my home. This was low on my priority list but I've finally got here. We've got the Christmas tree up. I've been working to put lights outside the house. There are 1.5 strands up. Yes, 1/2 of one isn't up. I"m gonna finish it on tomorrow. Last week seemed to fly by. Here is the weekend again. I sure need it. I'm not sleeping as well as I should. I wake up and look at the clock to see if I've over slept yet. Once at 12:oo, again at 2, and again at 4. I'll get used to the new home eventually. Speaking of which, if my house doesn't sell in KY real soon, I'll not be able to keep it. I can afford this house, but not both.

I'll keep you up to date now that I'm back connected to the information super highway.

I Baaack.

After being away 7 weeks, I am now back at my old Kentucky home. I got here a full 5 days earlier than expected. Let me give the full rundown.

When I left for Maine, I thought I wouldn't have any vacation time to come back and get my things and my family so my wife and I planned that I would come home after work on Wednesday of the Thanksgiving holiday. That would give me 3 days, not counting the holiday which I planned to spend with my family in the mountains, to pack up and leave.

Chris, my boss and nephew-in-law-in-law as he has come to term it, persuaded me to take the whole week of Thanksgiving off since we discovered I had 2 floating holidays that I had to spend before the end of the year or lose them. I also planned to use one vacation day that I would have acquired as of that week. But being the dramatist that I am, making it a surprise came to mind. I decided not to tell my wife I was coming in early. I also discovered I had forgotten that my son was in a play on the Friday night I was arriving. If I had remembered that I would have planned an earlier departure.

I never told my wife I was coming in early and she never knew despite the fact that my mother-in-law had come to KY and spent 2 weeks with her knowing when I was coming and the fact that I wanted to surprise her and despite the fact that everyone else (well almost) at our church knew. I had a friend that works at the Lexington Police Department whom I have helped several time with my previous job pick me up at the air port.

For once most things went as planned. I feared there would be a problem with flights leaving and arriving on time, but this time there was only one 15 minute delay before I left Portland. I arrived on schedule. I must have badly under estimated the time it takes to drive from Cincinnati to Lexington. I had 30 minutes to get to the play which I knew I couldn't make, but I thought an hour would be plenty of time. Despite my police officers best speed and effort it took 1 hour and 30 minutes to get to the church for the play.

The actors were out taking their bows when I tip toed in the back door. I sat and let the play run out. After the lights came back on, I wanted to surprise my wife in some flashy way. Nothing presented itself. I decided to sneak out the side door to call her and lay some ground work for a surprise. Unfortunately her cell was turned off for the play. I poked my head in the side door to see what she was doing when I saw my middle son not too far away and he saw me. He ran to me and cried and cried. This whole daddy being gone had very rough on him. While I was consoling him, my daughter showed up. She grabbed me too. I knew I had to get to my quickly before someone else broke the news before I did. On the spur of the moment, walked over and sat down next to here and said "I don't think I like the way that play ended." I've never seen such a look of surprise before. (Well, maybe when I purposed, but that is another story.) I won't forget how nice it was for everything to finally be right again.

More news on events to come.....
