This site isn’t a political forum. It’s about me, because well, it’s all about mmeeee! If you don’t know me in person, that last line is not funny in blogosphere, but in real life? A hoot! I promise!

Two men were crucified with Jesus. Criminals condemned for their deeds and Scripture was fulfilled, “He was number among the transgressors.” One of the criminals hurled insults at Jesus. Condemned to the same death, his pride caused him to join the crowd in taunting Him. The other criminal rebuked him, “Do you not fear God?” Then he cried out to …

Easy like Sunday morning

Great words from a great tune by the Commodors. Cause I’m easy/easy like Sunday morning I don’t know about you guys, but Sunday mornings are anything but easy for me.
