The GREAT PROPHET MOHAMMED was mentioned by name in the forgotten gospel of Barnabas,who was one of the disciples of THE GREAT PROPHET JESUS CHRIST.
The gospel is here: www.barnabas.net/
in the aforementioned site,make a search for the word "mohammed".
heres a sample: from part 97
Then said the priest: `How shall the Messiah be called, and what sign shall reveal his coming?'
Jesus answered: `The name of the Messiah is admirable, for God himself gave him the name when he had created his soul, and placed it in a celestial splendour. God said: "Wait Mohammed; for thy sake I will to create paradise, the world, and a great multitude of creatures, whereof I make thee a present, insomuch that whoso bless thee shall be blessed, and whoso shall curse thee shall be accursed. When I shall send thee into the world I shall send thee as my messenger of salvation, and thy word shall be true, insomuch that heaven and earth shall fail, but thy faith shall never fail." Mohammed is his blessed name.'
Then the crowd lifted up their voices, saying: `O God, send us thy messenger: O Mohammed, come quickly for the salvation of the world!'
what do you think?
Sorrowfully have joined late (church activities ate up the evening), and am soon to depart.
MY advice would be this: SELL everything you can't absolutely live without and replace it after you get up here. No sense paying freight/postage on tons of useless stuff you'll just have to put into storage when you arrive. Keep your lovie-blanket and your favorite coffee cup, but sell furniture, bedding, dishes (unless they are heirlooms, of course) and go light. It cost me $16,000 to move up here in August of last year. I wouldn't do it again.
That's because this would be a one-way INTERNATIONAL move. From one state to another, no problem. Cross an international border, and all kinds of restrictions come into play.
We carried our guns and never had a problem with them. They were listed and nobody said anything. If you are going to be carrying them, the best thing to do is to break them down and mail the pieces to yourself. The Canadian government was very strict about handguns, but allowed us both times to bring our weapons, as long as the bolts were removed and they were reported on the manifest.

That table sounds beautiful. Promise you'll post pics of the (re)finished work.
That's good advice too.
$16,000 to move? Good thing you don't have to do it again. Wow.
That just proves it was time for me to leave...brain wasn't working...
Ya know...? After I posted that and then read it again, I realized that at least one international border was going to be crossed at least once....*blushing*
Then I should be leaving too. I'm up and in the office, but the brain just isn't working. Up way too late last night.
work calls...
I'm going to try and go as light as possible.
I'll check out a used trailer possibly this weekend, which I can sell there I imagine.
I'm also going to check out a huge roof-top ski box, which I could fit quite a bit in also. I would like one anyways, and I could easily sell it in AK, probably for a profit.
No furniture will be coming with, and I don't need fancy stuff when I get there. Goodwill furniture is a luxury for me!
That sounds like good planning.
I asked what kind of guns are not considered guns.
LOL!
I woke up in the middle of the night with the perfect sign for that, and didn't write it down. Of course, I can't remember what it was.
But I sure was laughing about it when I thought of it...;o]
Yep. As a military wife and mom, I've lost track of the number of moves for whatever reason. I think I quit counting at 100. There have been at least six times when I started over with nothing but paintings and photos.
Like redhead says...unless it's an heirloom, it can be replaced when you get where you're going.
Conversation between James and his alternate personality:
"James, you threw Pat's Lego building across the room! Bad James!"
"Pat is screaming and hitting you with Josie's trashcan, James. I think he's angry with you!"
Curiously, I identify with James.
That's what I get for making my pen name a character.
