GUEST POST from Don: Hans Van Doorn

HANS VAN DOORN If you are over 40 you probably think back to how AWFUL Brussels sprouts taste. You are wrong. Your ability to remember is fine. Like you, I remember that … and lots of other stuff I thought was awful. For instance, I tried coffee…lots of times as a teen. I wanted to …

My Myelogram – Health

I will try to make this brief, but I want to cover all the bases also. BEFORE: I had dreaded this test, and here’s why: First, for most of my life when anyone I knew had one, all I ever heard was how painful it was and how miserable afterward. Second, the effects from the …

Saturday Social – April 22, 2023 Edition: Snapchat

Today I am deleting my Snapchat account. That also includes Bitmoji, which I’ve had fun with for a long time. In fact, I’ve had fun with Snapchat… I’ve given up Snapchat before. Once they determined that I had to claim an astrological sign – no way to avoid it – I left. There are numerous …

At this time of year I have a constant sense in my heart of Jesus’ last week on earth…today thinking about His last supper with His disciples, His betrayal, His anguish knowing what was come in just hours…I can’t imagine any man who could endure what He did, out of love for us. I can’t …

GUEST POST from Don: Public Schools, part II

PUBLIC SCHOOLS part 2 Last week we presented a few of the issues which are corruptions of the true purpose of public schools. We presented literally only a fraction of the issues plaguing public schools. Yet, merely decrying the stupidity does not get us to any solutions. Can it be fixed or improved? Many “solutions” …

GUEST POST from Don: 5-Star Reviews (and other lies…)

5-STAR Reviews (and other lies) I once worked for a business that rewarded its workers every time they were named in a 5-star Google review of the company.  Dutifully, each employee would ask customers for a 5-star Google review and hand them their business card.  Of course, the result was a lot of 5-star reviews for the …
