- "If we don’t change, we will probably go out of business at worst or be totally irrelevant at best. It is futile to dig in our heels and resist the inevitable changes that the forces in our external environment are thrusting upon us." (Hans Finzel)
- Remember that the six most expensive words in business are: “We’ve always done it that way.”
- There are risks and costs to a program of action. But they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.
- “The problem is not that there are problems. The problem is expecting otherwise and thinking that having problems is a problem.” (John F. Kennedy)

This was sent to me by a friend. I laughed..... thought you might.
...
A 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class. She presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you. While reading, keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is a classic!

(the following post is neither unbiased, nor politically correct. This has been edited since I first posted it, since I think I was a bit carried away with the language, I apologise to anyone who read it prior to this edit.)
I just finished watching 4 women complaining and whining about a woman named Nadya Suleman. She is the mother of 14 children, 6 previous children and an amazing set of octuplets in January 09 brought her to the attention of the media.
The headlines are full of her. "Nadya Suleman talkes about her days as a stripper!" and "Octo-mom is an octo mess." Frankly I don't give a flying rat about her past, I've likely done worse.(and ,yes, I'm talking about the stripping, ha!) I care even less weather she is or isn't going to take a deal for a reality show. The women I saw "reporting" (I'll throw that term out loosely here) the story were neither unbiased nor fair. This was not reporting, and it pissed me off!
"I love kids!" she said. Find fault in that. Comments online about her range from, "what a looser" to "I hope someone kills her". Well, I hope and pray nothing happens to her. One reporter said, "she was only loving and motherly when the cameras where rolling. When the cameras went off, she left the kids in a nanny's care and went shopping." Well, retards, maybe she needed something like I don't know....... DIAPERS..... MAYBE FOOOOOOD!!!! So far the only thing fueling the controversy is the self righteous, selfish, uptight, people who are too self centered to ever raise a child of their own, much less 14, that they can't understand and therefore hate anyone who makes their mind up to love and raise babies.
Is she the perfect mom? Impossible. no one is.
Is she capable of raising that many children? we'll see.
But please, for the love of God,(though I doubt that would constrain them much) get off your sex in the city watching, high horse and find a way to help her. At the very least, stop abusing her with such hateful coverage.
Ok, I'm going to calm down now. Like I said, this is by no means unbiased. She is cute,( I think) and looks sweet. I have a soft spot for single moms, granted. But the way she is under attack by Americans with no lives, and no love for anything or anyone but themselves, really got me going. Stop pushing buttons on your remote control, except to turn off the garbage that box is feeding you and get a life.
Killer Quotes.
“Christ wants not nibblers of the possible, but grabbers of the impossible, by faith in the omnipotence, fidelity and wisdom of the Almighty Savior who gave the command. Is there a wall in our path? By our God we will leap over it! Are there lions and scorpions in our way? We will trample them under our feet! Does a mountain bar our way? Saying, ‘Be thou removed and cast into the sea,’ we will march on! Soldiers of Jesus, never surrender!” C.T. Studd.
>>>
“is a fight making its demands upon physical, mental, and spiritual powers, and there are many adversaries. The dead weight of heathenism, the little appreciation of one’s object and purpose, and the actual vigorous opposition of the powers of darkness, make it a real fight, and only men of grit, of courage, devotion, and infinite patience and perseverance, will win.
“Have I painted a discouraging picture? Am I frightening good men who might have volunteered and done well? I think not. I think the right sort of men, those who ought to volunteer, will be attracted rather than repelled by the difficulties.”—Rev. J. Lampard, India
>>>
“[May] the Lord lead further and further those who do in earnest want to live the Joshua [i.e., transformed] life. It means a daily dying to self and what self wants; a daily turning to our Master with a ‘Yes, Lord’ to everything, even to what is most against the grain. May He quicken those who have not yet begun to live this life to see what they are missing, before it is too late.—Amy Carmichael

In a continuance of past habits I give you my fifth tribute, this time not to an individual but a group.
If this information is new to anyone I would be surprized, shocked, and downright dissapointed. Only in the complete absence of these individuals would one fail to aquire this realization, and there are few, if any, who live in total absence. We've all had a lack of them from time to time, but I doubt that anyone i know hasn't encountered their fair, "share"(oh, thats corny! you'll get it later). The point is, you should know this already and are thus held accountable.
I could try to come up with a bunch of flowery vocabulary that would send you running for a dictionary, but I'm a simple man with a simple message. Family Chicks Rock! Imagine, a living breathing example of the word in action. "It's only Jesus." She'll say, my case in point. Then imagine, if you can, this living, breathing, humble example is fun, wild, free, and HOT!
Granted I'm speaking from a biased point of view as a man, guy, or whatever you prefere to call me. No, not you Mari, I don't answer to that. But I think you'll agree with me that family girls are fantastic. So in the spirit of valentines, I give you all a "how you doin", complete with a raised eyebrow and wandering eyes, (not like a lazy eye, but like I'm checking you out) as well as a full and complete thank you for your dedication to the family and love for Jesus.
as far as the fact that it's only Jesus, you cannot help but love the artist more through seeing the art, and the art is impressive.
