off topic,
Just now saw your comments, & as you can see, per Quix, he didn’t get stitches due to too little skin left for that; he is now reporting, in the wee hours of the morning, he has a headache but the hand is stable.
He has quite a constitution, handles pain like a manly man, gives very little outward reaction to adverse circumstances, very admirable.
He was the same way when he had all his teeth pulled. Remarkable.

OTAC, I have somewhere a copy of The Message, it’s good. I want to get a copy of New Living Translation (I think Joel Osteen has a leather copy of it available) and at biblegateway dot com I will scroll to the Young’s literal translation & to the Amplified Bible if I’m wanting help understanding a Bible verse.
One of my son-in-law’s most treasured possessions is an heirloom Bible that’s held together with duct tape, I kid you not. I’ve seen another person at my church bring a Bible held together that way.

And going even further off topic,
Gorilla Duct Tape is the best brand to buy. 3M duct tape offers less adhesion than used kleenex, seriously,
so OTAC, and everybody else,
BUY
GORILLA brand DUCT TAPE
and avoid 3M — I speak from personal AND work-related experience. Nuff said.
THX MUCH for your kind words and helpfulness.
BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD. HE ALONE IS WORTHY; HE ALONE ENABLES. HE ALONE HEALS AND RESTORES WHAT’S WORTHWHILE.
I have my old, falling apart, wide-margin KJV that I used all throughout Bible College. I have so much written in it, cross-refs, notes, poems, prayers, etc. that I would never even consider getting rid of it. I have other versions, but I still use it quite a bit as most of my memory verses are from the King James Bible. When I use the online searches I mostly look up phrases from memory when looking for the chapter/verse in KJV but will often read the verses from other versions for better understanding. I really like also having an online concordance - what a 21st. century treat!
