 TODAY'S QUOTE  

 A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on   John F. Kennedy

     

  HAPPY FINALLY FRIDAY

  Yesterday I got a call from DDIL#1  letting me know that DS#1 came through his corrective eye surgery just fine !  We'll see now if he has better than 20-20 vision!  This happens very often.  For someone who's been wearing glasses since the 2nd grade - it is truly like a miracle.    Our painter says that today is THE DAY!  We won't have to look at buckets and ladders in the back yard any more !  We'll see....   I am sooooo happy the weekend is here !  I've got great plans for lots of R&R!!!  

Have a great day all !  Another wonderful one on the Way!    

    TODAY IS..SPICY FOOD DAY

  The spices in the hot foods we eat are oily. And, we all know that oil and water don't mix. So, what can you do to cool down a hot mouth? Try one of these... Eat bread - it will absorb the oily spices. Drink milk - it contains "casein" that binds the spices and carries them away

   

   TODAY'S TRIVIA  

 0014: Augustus Cësar, 1st Roman Emperor, dies

1929: Amos & Andy, a radio sitcom starring white actors Freeman Gosden and Charles Correll as African-American characters, debuted on NBC Radio. One of radio’s longest-running shows, it moved to television with an all-black cast for two seasons in the early ‘50s. Reruns finally disappeared in 1966 after complaints from civil rights groups

1856: Gail Borden of Brooklyn, New York, patented his process for condensed milk. The milk from contented cows. This slogan was one of the great American advertising campaigns. Borden's is still in business and is one of the largest dairy product concerns in the world. The familiar flat-topped cans of Borden's condensed milk are still available, as are Borden's ice cream, cheese and other products -- all with the seal of approval by Borden's famous mascot, Elsie, the cow

1981: The final episode of "Charlie's Angels" was broadcast on ABC-TV. The show which starred Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith and the voice of John Forsythe, went into syndication

  

 TODAY'S SMILE

  Praise The Lord!
 
There was a preacher that was trying to sell his horse. A potential buyer
came to the church for a test ride.

"Before you start," the preacher said, "you should know that this horse
only responds to church talk. Go is Praise the Lord; and stop is Amen."

So the man on the horse says, "Praise the Lord," and the horse starts to
trot.
 
The man again says, "Praise the Lord," and the horse starts to gallop.
Suddenly there is a cliff right in front of the horse and the man yells
"Amen!"

The horse stops just at the edge of the cliff.

The man wipes the sweat from his brow and says,

 Praise the Lord

 


  TODAY'S WORD

 serried
Pronunciation: /SER-eed/
adj : crowded or pressed together, especially in rows

 


TODAY'S REFLECTION  

 O Lord my God, I cried out to You, and You healed me   Psalm 30:2  

 Sometimes it seems that our prayers are unanswered. Unfortunately we begin to doubt because God doesn't fulfill our desires. But healing is not always physical. Sometimes God's healing is in strengthening our ability to cope  

 

TODAY'S ADVICE FROM THE OLD FARMER'S ALMANAC  

For minor cuts, apply crushed geranium leaves to stop the bleeding  

August 19 - Full Sturgeon Moon. Some Native American tribes new that the sturgeon of the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain were most readily caught during this full Moon, while others called it the Full Green Corn Moon or the Full Grain Moon  

34 DAYS UNTIL AUTUMN    

Delight yourself in the Lord
and He will give you the desires of your Heart
Psalm 37:4

  I Love You All !!!   Be Blessed !!!   Ma
