Musashi was a warrior in Japan in the 1400's. It's also a type of katana.
Oh Yes, I do!!! Reading his latest book right now.
I got the wrong date before.
Greta has made no mention of the Schindlers. Do you think they'll be on?
Phenomenal!!!!
No, they just showed on prevue that they will be on tomorrow night. I hate watching her show and I have had it on because I thought they were gonna be on. Darn!! I do like Mark Fuhrman, tho. hehe
Absolutely! When my oldest was about 3, youngest was 1 1/2 (and younger), I'd often pray while in the car, aloud, that God would give us a parking space beneath a tree when we'd go to the mall; it worked almost every time. We lived in the hot desert, and the car would be unbearably hot when we'd return to the car if there was no shade. I used to have to use a potholder to turn the ignition (it was metal) and the metal seat belts would burn my daughters' legs if it went against their skin. I wanted my girls to know that God listens to all our prayers, no matter where we are when we pray and no matter how "insignificant" it might be; if it's important to us, it is to Him. They still remember those prayers and how we always seemed to get a spot under the tree. It also taught them another lesson: even our biggest prayers are still "little" to Him.
Do they commit hari kari in the Harima Province? Anything in the book Spiritual Litigation about about swordsmen named Musashi?
"As long as one of us heard it, we can hold him to it."

Where Are the Catholic Priests, Pro-Life Group Wonders
Susan Jones
Morning Editor
(CNSNews.com) - The American Life League says now is the time for Roman Catholic priests -- especially Terri Schindler Schiavo's own bishop -- to offer prayers for Terri's safety.
"Bishop Robert Lynch of St. Petersburg and his brother bishops across Florida and the rest of the United States must not let Terri die a painful death while they quietly sit by and do nothing," said Judie Brown, president of American Life League.
Brown says every Catholic priest should be "preaching from the pulpits on why one can never remove food and water from a person whose death is not imminent."
Although Terri Schindler Schiavo is severely brain damaged, she breathes on her own. Videotape shot by her parents shows Terri propped up in her hospice bed, wide awake, and appearing to respond to her mother's attention.
However, at her husband's insistence, Terri's food and hydration tube will be removed on March 18, unless Florida Circuit Court Judge George Greer reverses his order.
Michael Schiavo insists that his wife told him long ago that she would not want to be kept alive artificially if it ever came to that. The courts have consistently sided with Michael Schiavo and against her parents, who want to keep her alive.
If Terri's feeding tube is removed, it might take several weeks for her to die from starvation and dehydration. Terri's family and supporters say it would be an excruciating and inexcusable way for anyone to die.
"We call on Catholics everywhere to pray for Terri and for the spiritual conversion of her husband, Michael," Brown said in a statement. "All Christians -- clergy and lay people alike -- must display true courage and stand against this injustice. Terri is not dead yet and we must do all we can to prevent that tragedy from occurring."
The American Life League says Catholic priests should be participating in public vigils and prayer services for Terri -- and pressuring public officials to do everything possible to protect a woman whose "basic civil rights are being tragically trampled upon."
The Florida Catholic Conference released a statement Feb. 28 stating its "continued concerns for Terri Schiavo," but Brown said that doesn't go far enough.
"To the best of our knowledge, there has been a tremendous lack of effort from the Florida Catholic Conference -- and in particular from Bishop Lynch, who is Terri's bishop -- to assist in this situation.
"Time is running out for Terri, but we encourage people not to give up hope," Brown said.

I stopped watching her a few weeks ago, and decided to go to bed instead.......after the way she treated Terri's Dad and one of the lawyers.
I had thought she was on Terri's side, but now am not so sure.
George Noory looks like a very kindly man. I hope he reads my e-mail and finds it in his heart to devote a large segment of his air time to Terri - soon - and tells me when his program is on in Arizona, and which station to dial.
I thought I heard earlier today that they will be on Friday night. Tomorrow is Thursday. Possible I am wrong...
George Noory's daughter was in a horrible accident. His daughter's best friend was killed in the accident. For some reason, he relates that to Terri's circumstances and like most of the world, Noory thinks this is despicable. Wesley Smith, phd has been on coast to coast before, while Terri was being denied nutrition and hydration. We were there at Hospice listening to coast to coast and Terri was just across the street in Hospice Woodside on the deathbed they made for her. Thank God, she's still with us.
Terri ping to 958! If anyone would like to be added to or removed from my Terri ping list, please let me know by FReepmail!
They need to participate in PROTESTS!!!!!!!!!!
We need passionate citizens as well as priests PROTESTING!!!!!!!!!
