I must confess that some of the generic, "modern" worship songs really helped me in my depression. So yeah, they may be kind of lame, but they really helped me.

You wanna talk about people being disappointed at the lack of ice cream. You should see all the people when they found out Blue Bell was shutting down for a time. ^_^

Im just waiting for BlueBell stock to go public...... buy low and sell shortly after the ice cream returns as its sure to peak very high very quickly...... CACHING!
I have a cousin who is pregnant and has been craving Blue Bell the whole time...

It's that serious, guys. We're dying for lack of ice cream.

He knows business. There's a lot more to running a country than business.

Frankly I think it's a crying shame we live in a world where he's even running, much less being taken serious by some folk.
I don't think he quite has the "running a country" thing down, but none of the other Republicans running seem to get it either.

The thing that's attractive about Trump is he seems motivated. He is always doing things, as opposed to the other conservative candidates who seem very quiet and unsure and scared to say or do anything.

Some of the stuff he's said is offensive, but at least it's something HE decided to say, not him repeating whatever Republicans have been saying for years.

That's something I can appreciate in most people.

Doesn't matter if people don't like your opinion, so long as it's your opinion and not just the headline from a newspaper with no substance or context.

I disagree. Some of those candidates are/were governors, or at the very least Senators. trump is an intelligent businessman, but he can't be president. I realized that when I was watching the debates and his past was scrutinized by the moderators, although they were certainly biased against him.

O tell of his might, O sing of his praise,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space,
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form
And dark is his path on the wings of the storm.


You just don't see these kinds of lyrics in modern music for worship anymore.

Do you ever listen to the Keith and Kristyn Getty? They are by far my favorite new hymn writers.

I have a cousin who is pregnant and has been craving Blue Bell the whole time...

It's that serious, guys. We're dying for lack of ice cream.

Im not even an ice cream fan so, to me.... it means very little that there is no bluebell.

Its not that I hate it, I just prefer my treats a certain way. Much the same that I don't drink hot drinks.I dont like a cold mush in my mouth that gives me brain freeze. So, ice cream to me is pretty much.... take or leave it.

Sweets in general aren't my thing, but thats more of a Pavlov's Dog situation. After having cavities in my wisdom teeth (Not enough room to get back there sufficiently) I wound up just about on the floor in pain at times when I ate sweets that had an icing or filling. So, I grew to like the bread part of cake more than the icing. etc. cause I associated icing with pain. Now the wisdom teeth are gone....... but...the response is the same.... I tend to go for the less icing, more sweet breading type of desserts.

Besides, why waste space with sweets and junk when you can always finish up a good meal with say..... more tacos, or a BBQ bacon cheddar burger instead for dessert. Besides, with all these veggiesaures someone has to take up the slack and make sure the animals don't have the numbers to rise up knowing there are those of us that will eat them for breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner and dessert. :D

I haven't listened to much of them, but I'm familiar with a few of their songs. I have been quite impressed with their lyrics, but the contemporary sound really isn't my favourite. A while back, I listened to one of the New Irish Hymns albums for a several days, but had to give it up. I wanted to like it, but it wasn't to be. :p

No, it was a political debate. I was surprised that Trump didn't act quite as non-nonsense-like as he had been before, but he did seem to sort of defend himself a bit. He's no Republican and he's no conservative, although he does say what is on the minds of some people. He shouldn't win, though, I don't think he'd make the best President. Maybe a cabinet job?

Trump would make a great financial advisory or some economical cabinet position, but not president. Running a business is not like running a country.

I disagree. Some of those candidates are/were governors, or at the very least Senators. trump is an intelligent businessman, but he can't be president. I realized that when I was watching the debates and his past was scrutinized by the moderators, although they were certainly biased against him.

I've heard some republicans say last night was a train wreck and don't support anyone who was there.

I just love blue bell's tubs, with the girl walking the cow and how they're color-coded. I think someone my grandpa knows is related to some local BLue Bell provider, but I don't think he gave much of an update on their situation. Nor do I think my grandpa would remember if the guy had told him how the company was doing, not because he's old but just because it probably wasn't something he'd remember if it seemed irrelevant at the time.

I hardly think that's the case. One of the things that's characteristic of the extreme politics of today are the dramatizations of political figures, which comes with comparisons to Hitler and the like. He's a buffoon for sure, but I don't think he's going to go off and start killing millions of Jews. :rolleyes:

I consider it to be in line with when people start raving about how Obama is going to take everyone's guns away and start putting people in concentration camps.

Hasnt stopped the American public from voting for someone before. Potential of being a good president is no longer cause for electing. Skin color, gender and looks are.

A presidential election has become more of an elderly beauty pageant, Im surprised they havent reduced it to a reality TV show..... "Who wants to be Mr.(Mrs.) America".... call in and cast your vote.

Trump owns the Miss USA, Miss Teen USA, and Miss Universe pageants, so who knows? ^_^
