Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...is your weather holding ugly? Do the trains not run at all if there is snow?

Did you have a safe and uneventful commute home?

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!





Pte. Robert Wood, British Army, Royal Logistic Corps (RLC), Died Afghanistan 14FEB2011






I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)


Flowers of the Forest



Black Watch Piper

The Soldier

If I should die, think only this of me:
That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is forever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam;
A body of England's, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
And think, this heart, all evil shed away,
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given;
Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;
And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,
In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

Rupert Brooke

Hiya Navy Bro!

We're suppose to get a couple of inches of the white stuff; schools will close, the city will come to a standstill, mass panic....Oh, the Humanity!

But snowmen will be built and I might get a day off.

How's things your way?!

Trains were running about an hour late this afternoon. I drove in today. Had an accident on the way home - must have fallen asleep at the wheel and drifted into the car next to me. Luckily only some twisted metal - no bodily injury to either me or the guy I hit. Someone looking out for me.

Aloha again Night Owl!

Another perfectly sunny day again.....and please refrain from remarks about the rainy weather and that Hilo is 'the rainiest city in the US' at least for the snowbird tourist season. We need the bucks.

(If it rains while they're here....we'll make a fortune selling umbrellas.)

Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.

We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

The Variety Of Creation
February 23, 2011

Have you ever stopped to consider the amazing features God placed in the animals He created? Job did, and one of the most interesting he wrote about is the ostrich. Despite its apparent lack of good sense and its eccentric parenting skills, its offspring survive (39:13-16). And despite its membership in the bird family, it can’t fly—but it can outrun a horse (v.18).

Another remarkable creature is the bombardier beetle. This African insect shoots two common materials, hydrogen peroxide and hydroquinone, from twin storage tanks in its back. Apart, these substances are harmless; together, they blind the beetle’s predators. A special nozzle inside the beetle mixes the chemicals, enabling it to bombard its foe at amazing speeds! And the little guy can rotate his “cannon” to fire in any direction.

How can this be? How is it that a rather dull-witted ostrich survives despite a seeming inability to care for its young while the bombardier beetle needs a sophisticated chemical reaction to ensure its continued presence on earth? It’s because God’s creative abilities know no boundaries. “He commanded and they were created,” the psalmist tells us (148:5). From the ostrich to the beetle, God’s creative work is clear for all to see. “Praise the name of the Lord” (148:13).

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful;
The Lord God made them all. —Alexander

The design of creation points to the Master Designer.

Read: Job 12:7-13

In [God’s] hand is the life of every living thing. —Job 12:10
Bible in a year:
Numbers 7-8; Mark 4:21-41
