  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Cob pipes are one of the best smokes I have ever had. The great thing about them is that they are very cheap. :thumbsup:

When weather permits I steal away from the family to pray for them and meditate on the scriptures. I take my cob and my ugly dog along to sit by a creek that snakes through an old cemetery just a few blocks from my place. The cob warms the hands...scripture warms the soul.

Ever try a hooka?

You'd draw some attention for sure praying in the graveyard with a bible, dog, and a hooka.
Not the same as a bong but can be used the same I am told. You would probably get the attention of the police.

Especially if while he smoked the hooka in the graveyard, bible in hand, dog in lap, he sat atop a large blue mushroom shaped bean bag.....grinning.

I would like to try a Hooka but it seems like a lot of work.

^_^

I imagine it is. There is a Greek restaurant close by me that rents hookas to customers who want to smoke from one. It looks hard. Funny, but hard to maintain.

My dog loves me with all it's heart, soul and mind...unless you have food. Then she'll love you with all her heart, soul and mind!

:crosseo:

For real, my dog is a pug and pug ugly.

My aunt once had a pug. It would get so excited that it would run around and flip in circles and such until it passed out ^_^

The tedious tangle of the Law






When head is sick and brain doth swim,
And heavy hangs each unstrung limb,
‘Tis sweet through smoke-puffs, wreathing slow,
To watch the firelight flash or glow.
As each soft cloud floats up on high,
Some worry takes its wings to fly;
And Fancy dances with the flame,
Who lay so labor-crammed and lame;
While the spent Will, the slack Desire,
Re-kindle at the dying fire,
And burn to meet the morrow’s sun
With all its day’s work to be done.

The tedious tangle of the Law,
Your work ne’er done without some flaw;
Those ghastly streets that drive one mad,
With children joyless, elders sad,
Young men unmanly, girls going by
Bold-voiced, with eyes unmaidenly;
Christ dead two thousand years agone,
And kingdom come still all unwon;
Your own slack self that will not rise
Whole-hearted for the great emprise,—
Well, all these dark thoughts of the day
As thin smoke’s shadow drift away.

And all those magic mists unclose,​
And a girl’s face amid them grows,—​
The very look she’s wont to wear,​
The wild rose blossoms in her hair,​
The wondrous depths of her pure eyes,​
The maiden soul that ‘neath them lies,​
That fears to meet, yet will not fly,​
Your stranger spirit drawing nigh.​
What if our times seem sliding down?​
She lives, creation’s flower and crown.​
What if your way seems dull and long?​
Each tiny triumph over wrong,​
Each effort up through sloth and fear,​
And she and you are brought more near.​
So rapping out these ashes light,—​
“My pipe, you’ve served me well to-night.”​

Don't get me wrong, pugs are wonderful companion dogs, just ugly. If you cover their ears they look kind of like a monkey.
Have you ever noticed how dogs and their owners look alike?

I don't look anything like my dog, a unique, one of a kind AKC miniature poodle....one of the smartest, funniest dogs I've ever known. She was the runt of the litter, with a coat and markings not usually found in the line. She has the coloring and markings of a Rottweiler, the coat of a poodle, but she is full blooded, from pure, AKC registered parents, grandparents, and great grandparents. I had to agree to have her spayed so she could not breed, so her markings and coloring would not propagate. That makes her a unique dog.

What are you trying to say there buddy, the dog actually belongs to my wife!

:idea:

I take my cob and my ugly dog along
You said it was your ugly dog but now that it has been pointed out that dogs oftentimes look like their owners you say it is your wife's dog. HMM! It ain't me saying anything about your beautiful wife. :p

Does she have the fierceness of a Rottweiler as well? :thumbsup:
