Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
See the horrific result of an early exposure to the prose stylings of Tolkien?
Pure horror. There is no recovery from damage like that.
Nope. I blame it on my mother. After all, she taught me to read with phonics...
I tell ya, when I get my next cholesterol test back, if it's low, I'm going back to eating regular mayo. I don't eat that much mayo and I've decided that is the one thing that the substitute just doesn't do justice. Honestly, eating the substitute gives me the impression of chewing on a polyester suit.
I spend a lot of time thinking about it.... I am glad there are a lot of people who try very hard to understand how the whole thing works and the few who have really "got it". I enjoy pondering and searching and reading and thinking about it. I just think whenever people get together to try to organize faith they end up cluttering it up.
My friend Tiffney would be REALLY disappointed if I let someone else get to me first. :~D
Heh. Well, my family appreciates your efforts on our behalf. ;~)
Sigh... that would be nice if I could find a decent "support network" here. Blah.
What I want for Christmas: a sound system in my home church and somebody who tapes the sermons. Then I could go to church here but still listen to the good sermons from home.
Yes, Tiffney said that they did...
Ditto, ditto.
I try to listen to the sermons but I've been spoiled by, you know, decent sermons. It's hard to pay attention to boring rambling monologues in the hope that something good is buried within.
Honestly, some Sundays I feel like I'm going for the hymns... bad attitude. I'm not going for me at all.
No wait.... I was not wrong but neither was the prof.... drat! Still not the same as me being right :P
Well, half the songs are hymns. Some of them are the good ones. The rest are praise choruses. Mostly really bad ones. I try not to complain too much.
You're right, it is a good support network. I love being around people who have better faith than myself, it makes me better. I love that the hobbit hole is full of so many friends that bring great testimony and fellowship here.
Preach it, Brother Corin!
LOL! It's fun to be able to understand, laugh about and even poke fun sometimes without folks getting their knickers in a twist cause we know where we're coming from! That's what I love about the Hole.
Oh I agree completely, we're completely responsible for our own choices, but he can sure encourage other folks to make OUR lives miserable because of THEIR stupid choices! ;o)
LOL! He's such a hoot!
I'm enjoying homemade almond butter with canola oil on two slices of low carb bread with just a sprinkle of splenda and a diet riot.
They don't sell this bread as low carb...they sell it as (don't look, hair) "High Fiber"...It's Vey Good bread at only 5 carbs per slice.
