More fun cartoons again and some jokes

Little Zachary was doing very badly in math.
His parents had tried everything...tutors, mentors, flash cards, special learning centers. In short, everything they could think of to help his math.

Finally, in a last ditch effort, they took Zachary down and enrolled him In the local Catholic school. After the first day, little Zachary came home with a very serious look on his face. He didn't even kiss his mother hello.
Instead, he went straight to his room and started studying.

Books and papers were spread out all over the room and little Zachary was hard at work. His mother was amazed. She called him down to dinner.

To her shock, the minute he was done, he marched back to his room without a word, and in no time, he was back hitting the books as hard as before.

This went on for some time, day after day, while the mother tried to understand what made all the difference.

Finally, little Zachary brought home his report Card.. He quietly laid it on the table, went up to his room and hit the books. With great trepidation, His Mom looked at it and to her great surprise, Little Zachary got an 'A' in math.

She could no longer hold her curiosity.. She went to his room and said, 'Son, what was it? Was it the nuns?' Little Zachary looked at her and shook his head, no.. 'Well, then,' she replied, Was it the books, the discipline, the structure, the uniforms? WHAT WAS IT?'

Little Zachary looked at her and said, 'Well, on the first day of school when I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they weren't fooling around.'

Greta Van Susteren revealed last night that Rush Limbaugh will be one of the judges of the 2010 Miss America Pageant.

Pageant officials figured this was the only way to keep Barack Obama from winning that, too.

So What Comes Next?

I'm going to step aside from my normal political subjects for this post and voice what I think is in store for us in the not too distant future. We are living in very turbulent times and I won't pretend to know all about what is ahead but will give some practical advice for dealing with what I personally think is in store for us. I'm not a rash, over reactive person. I didn't store up one little thing for Y2K and I don't think the Mayans knew anything about the end of the world. I think they had too much to be concerned about with there own survival to worry about what happens in 2012. Why would they worry about 2012 when they weren't even going to come close to making it that far? So lets not talk silly stuff.

Ok, this economic situation shows no sign of turning around anytime soon and we have a government that encourages us to continue doing the some things that got us into trouble in the first place. In fact, they are running thier finances far worse than the average working person did before all this happened. How can doing this fix it? It can't, period, end of story. So it is time to start taking some action to get us through this. Besides the obvious of praying and getting Gods wisdom, number one is getting out of debt as much as possible. If this isn't possible, reduce it as much as you can. New cars are not worth it, new furniture is not worth it, and even worse, toys of various sorts are not worth it. It is NOT a time to spend freely. Yes, if you have money, great deals can be found and some people will get rich by wise investments during this time. The key though is this, they have the money to do so. Don't buy into the garbage that if everybody spends money they don't have, the economy will get better. That is garbage. I have now lived relatively debt free (the last baby isn't paid off yet) for over a year and a half and it is one of the most freeing things there is in this natural world.

It is time to lay up some stock of necessary items. I have never really done this before because I don't live in fear. If I have extra I often give it away. That is an important princible that I live by. I'm not saying let up on your giving, but also prepare a bit to help take care of your family. If this cap and trade silliness goes through, basic things could get very expensive. Fuel will go up, food will go up, most things will go up in price. Even if it doesn't go through, inflation is bound to hit us soon enough. My electricity has gone up greatly in the past year. My bill is higher than it has ever been here while my electric use has been lower than ever before at this place. A good food stock is always a good idea. Whatever you use for heat it is good to lay up some extra if possible. Also look into alternative forms. I personally use wood but I know that isn't possible for everybody. I will also start looking into alternative forms of electricity. Extra fuel for your car is good although it doesn't store very good for very long. Probably most important, especially if you live in the city, is get some water in storage. You can't live very long if you can't get water. Do some studying on people living in the great depression. It can happen again here.

I'm not a doom and gloom person and I definitely don't think that God is done with America. But so many times we as Americans seem to think that what other people in the world deal with can't happen here. We have become so prideful that we set ourselves up for a fall. God made this country and made it great. He is not done. We are a protector of Israel and we send forth the Gospel to all over the world. That is our purpose and it has not all been fulfilled. It isn't time to be scared, just wise. Gardens, a means to get some meat, some water, heat, food storage, and personal protection are wise investments for these times we are in.

Remember, it isn't paranoia if there is a real possibility of it happening.

Are You Paranoid?

It seems that there are a whole lot of paranoia accusations being thrown around these days. Seems the media and other blindly lead individuals like to use certain attention getting words to make others seem stupid and paranoid while getting the attention off of themselves. It is an age old tactic that was used by our number 1 enemy many years ago at the fall of man. Accuse others to get attention off of yourself and your agenda. Well let me tell you, if what you are concerned about is true, then it is NOT paranoia! Is it paranoia to have insurance on your house, car, life, etc when the chances are very remote that anything will happen? Ask anybody that has had their house burn down, broken into, or flooded. Is it paranoia to put away food and other necessities of life on the off chance that we might need it? Ask anybody that has survived a hurricane, tornado, or other natural disaster. Is it paranoia to wear a helmet on a motorcycle or a seat belt in a car? I've seen enough accidents of both type to say no it is not. Is it paranoia to have a means of protecting yourself against personal attack by two or four legged critters? I've had enough encounters of both to say it is absolutely not. I've never had to use my always present pistol thankfully, but I've also never been saved by my seat belt or extra food. They will always be there though. I HAVE had to use my house insurance and car insurance.

For many years Christians have been saying that persecutions are coming. Many people said they were paranoid. Even though it has clearly happened in other countries throughout history and still happens today, people said you were paranoid if you thought such things. It is now OK to teach kids about Islamic beliefs, Greek mythology, and pretty much any other religious belief, as long as it isn't Christianity. And people wonder why we home school. It has long been a favorite tactic of our enemy to go after our children. Most dictators used it, Hitler used it, the devil uses it, and now our own leaders use it. If it became law that you had to send your kids to a public school that you knew would indoctrinate them with values against your own, would you do it? Hopefully you wouldn't.

Over the years it has slowly become more acceptable to kill the innocent because they are "inconvenient" or "don't have much of a chance". Besides the obvious that this is simply wrong, it soon leads the way for government mandated killings. This too has happened in other countries throughout history and continues to happen today. Yet are you paranoid because you are against abortion? Would you let a government tell you whether or not your unborn child can live? Hopefully you wouldn't.

For years people have been warning us about economic collapse. Yet others always called them paranoid despite the fact that this has happened in the USA in the past. People continued to take on debt spending money they didn't have. Well, here it is. Was I paranoid because I felt a deep desire to get back out of debt? I live in an area where many people grow and/or hunt most of their food. We are all happy that we do. To be honest, the economy hasn't really affected us. I really don't even notice. But despite how all this happened, you have a government that wants you to continue to spend, continue to borrow. Will you do it? Hopefully not.

People say you are paranoid if you think the government wants to disarm you. Yet history tells us that an unarmed populace is not safe from their own leaders. History tells us that an unarmed populace is not safe from the criminal elements. Have you ever really thought about and studied why our constitution says what it says about arms? The framers of our constitution where amazingly intelligent people. They studied history and saw first hand what an out of control government can do. They were prophetic. They were also very wealthy (most of them anyway) and had LOTS to lose in this so called "rebellion" they led. Is it really rebellion to fight for ones life? They wanted the 2nd amendment in there as a last ditch effort to stop a tyrannical government and rampant crime. In England now, if you must wound or kill somebody in self defense, you will serve time. Would you let a tyranny happen to your house because the leaders tell you you're not allowed to stop it? For your children's sake, I do hope not.

The above things we have been "paranoid" about are coming true. Homeland Security says that if you think any off the above things you need to be watched. They think that YOU are a potential terrorist because you disagree with them. Government mandated thinking. My friends, ultimate responsibility for you and your children lie with YOU! It is time we all get off our lazy hind ends and pray for our country. The Lord promises He will heal our land if we humble ourselves and pray. It is also important that we do our civic duty and VOTE! Our government isn't the way it is because it was Gods desire. It is the way it is because of our laziness, sin, and apathy. It wasn't Gods desire for Israel to be under bondage to other countries so many times in history, it was because of their laziness, sin, and apathy. The Lord has given us such a great and wonderful country to live in. It is worth fighting for. It is still salvagable. There is still hope. God is NOT done with this country. God has NOT forsaken us. We have turned away. Will you continue to let your homeland waste and rot away? Hopefully not.

Sorry I didn't get this to you before the deadline for the special.
