  • 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.

Think I'll sit down here for a bit... (6)

While I feel bad for you hug:light hug so as not to sting)... I don't wanna hear it!!



I guess the fact that lots of Yankees and Canucks were also taking in the sun of the Chisos Mountains won't surprise you, then.

Well..goodbye everyone!!

I'll be gone till late Palm Sunday at a regional bandfest outside of Detroit, MI.

I may have internet access..but I'm gonna go ahead and assume not. If I do, TCL probably won't be the first place I go.. (But you never know..)

I'm nervous about all the papers and tests I have due/to take during Holy Week, as that's also the last week of the Quarter before Spring/Easter break..

Well..see you guys soon!!

I'll be leaving for 4 days, starting friday morning. It's my grandma's 90th birthday this weekend. Hubby is gone working, so I'll be making the 7 hour trip alone. None of my family is Lutheran anymore, except my grandma, who is ELS. She likes me a lot, little WELS gal that I am.

Anyway, I'll miss you guys. I'm not heading to warmer temps.....so no reason to be jealous there.

Yeah, let's see, did you say you were from somewhere in the northern part of the world? We've had waaaay more winter than we are used to- even for Iowa! In fact- I wouldn't mind a brown Christmas this year!
Winter is great: No bugs, definitely no ticks, no sweating, no headache from the heat and so on.

But summer is great too. I just don't like any of the things I mentioned above. I do, however, like BBQ and other summery things.

I guess all 4 seasons have their charm, and I am blessed to always have lived in places where we had all four of them.

I love having 4 seasons as well. It's when one season seems longer than the others that I get impatient

Have a very safe trip. No fun driving 7 hours by yourself. Tell your grandma Happy Birthday from a fellow ELS'er!

I feel a little strange asking this...but...Oscar is one of God's creatures too so...(and I'm going to ask that there be no inappropriate...or even if you think it might be appropriate...dead cat jokes or I hate cats comments. Please.)

My boy cat, Oscar is getting ready to turn 13 a couple of days after Easter. Late last week I noticed that he just wasn't himself. Knowing that he's getting older, I took him to the vet for a check up. Vet said there's something wrong but his symptoms are so slight (and he's so cranky) that they'd need blood tests to make sure. The three contenders for older cats are Thyroid disease (treatable and curable) Diabetes (treatable) and Kidney disease (neither treatable nor curable but palative care can be done to help extend life and keep him comfortable)

Vet just called with the test results of his blood work. He has chronic kidney disease which means it's been going on for a while and he could either continue like this for years OR he could go downhill VERY fast no matter what we do for him.

This is my baby. I've had him since before he was born. (his mommy cat lives at my parent's place) I watched him be born, I've done everything in my power to keep him healthy and happy (and rather spoiled.)

So...if you could please...pray that God gives him more years to be with his human Mommy? I can't take losing him right now.

Thanks everyone,

Kae
