Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedevs off-air comments that Russian Presidents are given a secret file about extraterrestrials living among us created much media interest. Most news reports claimed that Medvedev was simply joking. His apparent reference to the Men In Black movie as a source of information on a super secret agency that monitors extraterrestrials on Earth was commonly cited as key evidence that he was in fact joking. The reasoning is that no political leader would refer reporters to a comedy to clarify national policy. It has now emerged that Medvedev was not referring to the Men in Black comedy after all, but to a recent Russian television documentary titled Men in Black that reveals many details about an extensive cover up of extraterrestrial life visiting Earth.
However, a more accurate translation of what Medvedev actually said about the Men in Black phenomenon was: You can receive more detailed information having watched the documentary film of the same name. So Medvedev was referring to a Russian documentary film titled Men in Black, not the Hollywood blockbuster by the same name...
Russian Men In Black (MIB) documentary, a number of prominent UFO cases in Russia and the USA are discussed. The Roswell UFO crash is covered, along with a number of extraterrestrial abduction cases, and UFOs disabling nuclear weapons facilities. The documentary examines testimony that extraterrestrial bases have been established on Earth, and that some are in restricted US military areas with the full knowledge of the Pentagon. The documentary even goes on to seriously discuss President Eisenhowers alleged meeting with extraterrestrials, where agreements were reached with some of the visitors giving them permission to take some of the Earths resources in exchange for advanced technology...

The correct answer is, of course, "Why would I want to grow up?"
That's still the one I use.
Just BE in The Vine.
I was talking about this very thing with one of my best friends last week. Im just about to the point of subscribing to the idea that, if Id JUST BE in The Vine; if Id JUST focus on First Commandment, First Place, if Id just REMAIN, to use Jesus verb from John 15 then all of the DOING I invest (waste?) so much time trying to make happen would be Divinely re-ordered, and the things that REALLY need to get done would actually flow naturally (and peacefully) out of my relationship to God, instead of being this forced mass of chaos that I keep cobbled together all over my mental calendar.
Scotch mist... ok, got it. Definitely not to be confused with Scotch Bonnet...
And it is the English rain that is responsible for suntans... (or so one noted Expert with an MBE tells us..)
Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun.
If the sun don't come, you get a tan
From standing in the English rain.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus
Or more correctly, HAD an MBE...
OK, Face. It’s my honor to have you as my honorary sis. *HUG*
Thanks for the kind wishes, nti!
No baby yet, but today the doctor told her she will probably have the baby in the next 24-36 hours. She’s already 2cm. (Sorry if that is TMI for the guys.) And she got a beautiful picture of his face when she had her ultrasound today.
Why, indeed...
11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;
14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,
15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head — Christ —
16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
— Eph. 4:11-16 NKJV
1 Therefore let us go on and get past the elementary stage in the teachings and doctrine of Christ (the Messiah), advancing steadily toward the completeness and perfection that belong to spiritual maturity.
— Heb. 6:1 AMP
And not forgetting to properly acknowledge this instruction:
15 Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive and accept and welcome the kingdom of God like a little child [does] positively shall not enter it at all.
— Mark 10:15 AMP
For we here recognize that the directive is that we must accept The Kingdom in childLIKE — not childISH — fashion, which ability has no discord with growing up to maturity.
I went to college w/a fellow from Ethiopia. He was definitely the darkest-hued person I’ve ever seen.
Maybe the whole point is to let yourself flow to where the Creator wants you to be. Maybe, “How may I best serve?”
Good point.
You are the most together person!
Thank you for the update!
Sounds like good progress, everyone can remain clam.
Everyone is clamer, now that Marshall can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Your excellent contribution advances the discourse in furtherance of our mutual edification, for no lesser a light than St. Peter has, himself, addressed your same subject:
4 Come to Him [then, to that] Living Stone which men tried and threw away, but which is chosen [and] precious in Gods sight.
5 [Come] and, like living stones, be yourselves built [into] a spiritual house, for a holy (dedicated, consecrated) priesthood, to offer up [those] spiritual sacrifices [that are] acceptable and pleasing to God through Jesus Christ.
6 For thus it stands in Scripture [ref. Is. 28:16]: Behold, I am laying in Zion a chosen (honored), precious chief Cornerstone, and he who believes in Him [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Him] shall never be disappointed or put to shame.
— II Peter 2:4-6 AMP
And so the metaphor of a stone also undergirds (as a foundation) our prior themes: of being (for a stone has no busyness; it simply is); and of maturity (for in a stone we find that which is "older than the hills").
Not To Much Information, but you need to know that guys handle this information a bit differently.. To females it's a stage in the process. To guys, 2 centimeters is just a hair bigger than a 3/4 inch wrench.. (or DEFA rounds if you're military - or so I'm told..)
LOL, which is what would make the guys squirm if they thought about needing to expand that to 4”.
Well... if we needed to do that, we'd just get a bigger wrench... ;-)
LOL!

I found this message a while ago.
Stones make my bed, too.
Thank you for the Ping, Silentgypsy.
