Thank you, and laughing at Pink made me laugh; at least you are consistent....

I read you exchange with Jason from Fide-O here: http://fide-o.blogspot.com/2006/06/foreordain-and-foreknow_07.html

and I just wanted to say that I found myself laughing out loud at how similar my conversations have been with Calvinists online. It is absolutely amazing how childish people can be. I'm glad to know that there's other people out there who take the time to challenge them.

Do you go to Asbury?

Thanks for stopping by, and thank you for the encouragement. And yes, I do go Asbury, although not for much longer...wooohoo!

Seminary or college? I lived in Wilmore for a year way back in fourth grade... Aaah Kentucky.

Seminary.

Excellent. This is what I assumed, but I just wanted to cover my bases. I trust my comment was not insulting to you (for such was never my intention). My dad got his ThM at Asbury. Sounds like a good school. Would you agree?

daniel--

No problem. Yeah, it's a pretty good school. It's a little conservative for my tastes, but there are some outstanding profs here.

I loved "Where the Red Fern Grows"
I heard it first in 4th grade and then made my wife listen to it on audio tape on a drive to Kentucky. The book didn't finish by the time we got to Wilmore, so we sat in a parking lot on the college campus at about midnight, with street light shimmering off of the tears on our cheeks as we found out where the red fern grows...

I'm not crying now though. I'm fine. Leave me alone.

But with the change in the modern life style and the economic changes you can find
some changes in the way home these days are being decorated.
Maison de Verre - Translated as the House of Glass, it was designed by
Pierre Chareau. She had always wanted to be an interior designer but she ended up being a banker after taking a management course.

It is easier to remove the holder if its not stuck
to the cardboard tubing. A table cloth having rich and warm colours such as orange,
brown, red, yellow and gold provides a cosy feeling.
While there are places such as Home Depot, Staples, or Office Depot where you
can buy organizers to put them in, these can run
a pretty penny.
