I’m the son and grandson of ministers, there are 7 ministers in my family, I’m in church almost every Sunday worshipping God. I don’t understand people who have “Christian” in their profile and are defending ICE. You worship a different Christ than I do.

Found this today at an antique store. If you are from central Illinois you know what a legend Toby was. Back when newspapers had local columnists who had ink their veins and brought local characters and issues to life. They were must reading.

Ann: you need serious counseling, do you think you’re going to use new hoses next week?
Randy: could be warming trend coming
Ann: we are leaving at Noon

I remember a group Americans who also waived the flag, thumped their bibles and called people communists and celebrated the government beating and killing Americans, it was during Vietnam and history doesn’t look kindly on them and their actions and beliefs.

Things that make feel old. Bank tellers dressed like they are going to work out instead of wearing business attire, paying for gas before I pump it, hearing 70s and 80s music on “oldies radio” and watching friends retire. 😂
