The Neverending Story

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

After a nine month hiatus, The Neverending Story, the granddaddy of daily threads, has returned to Free Republic. Originally begun on March 24, 2001, as a religious discussion thread, the NES evolved over time into a daily thread spanning a wide variety of topics. The new and improved Neverending Story will feature conversation on religion, politics, culture, current events, business, sports, family, hobbies, general fellowship and more. We welcome you to hang your hat in our little corner of FR. We ask you to abide by the FR posting rules and, even in the midst of serious debate, to keep the discussion friendly and respectful. Those who wish to "duke it out" are asked to take it over to the Smoky Backroom. I placed this thread in "General/Chat" for a reason, so play nice and have fun! :o)

And if you've got a pizza stone or ceramic oven insert, turn the oven up a little higher than you need it for baking and toss 1/2 cup or so of water on it right after you put the loaf in the oven for baking. You'll get a better crust.

Interesting. Thanks for the tip!

I think he is telling me I'm going to die tonight. :-)

Then I think we have some things to talk about. We need to clear up this whole "unitarian" thing for one...

[OLD REGGIE]

To be pednatic, I don't fry that, I nuke it. :o)

You nuke it because this old man told you it was the only way to make it edible. :-)

You're certainly taking the news bravely.

With our cat it always means he wants some food. Not that food. Different food. Not the stuff he liked yesterday. Something else. He's so spoiled.

Remember, if that happens, we promised to give you a proper sendoff. :o)

That could be it. Li'l Reg is tired of tuna and wants some mahi-mahi or Chilean sea bass.

[IMRight]

If we could set up an e-mail account we could get him to settle some longstanding arguments for us.

But it would be just like him to make something weird up just to yank our chains. Ragnarok or similar.

:-)

[OLD REGGIE]

It could be that young Reggie is feeling a little under the weather. Or he broke something you haven't found yet, and he's trying to curry favor in advance.

I've already checked my bed to see if he hacked up a big hairball on my pillow. :-)

Unitarian=Universal=Catholic. No problemo.

Maybe you should start calling yourself a "Sola Scriptura Unitarian Catholic". That'll really confuse 'em! :o)

The "Catholic" part of me allows me to define "Sola Scriptura" in many ways. Ways meant to mislead and confuse.

And whichever way contributes to your winning the current argument. Don't forget that!

Yup! I'm in the process of writing a Catechism full of contradictory "infallible" pronouncements. Rather than arguing I'll simply say "see #624" and the argument is over.

Gee, I'm glad our cat isn't the only one that does that!

[CMOTB]

Does OnStar have a detection device that can tell if the airbags deployed? I thought I saw a commerical where they were able to tell if the car was in an accident. It would seem they could call 911 and let the police know that there was a deployment and no response from the driver.

Or is that what you were refering to?

[CindyDawg]

Reg , you still with us?

Warning: Christian content:')

Dave have you seen the Resurrection Eggs that Walmarts selling? I bought one today and it's such an easy(and fun) way to teach children about Easter.

[IMRight]

Almost anything put out by FamilyLife is worth looking at... so I'll look into it.

But I'm skeptical of the faith value of anything sold at WalMart.

You could just get Malakhi to give you a file of all your previous posts going back to day one. :-)

It would at least get half of the requirements fulfilled.

Which half?

[IMRight]

Which half?

We will leave that as an exercise for the student. :-)

I just wanted to see if you were still "with us" and thought a jab might be the best way to get a response.
