“What God means by happiness and goodness is a far higher thing than we can conceive.” — Elisabeth Elliot
Don’t take me too seriously. I don’t.

Golf Signage
Here is an actual sign posted at a golf club in Scottsdale:
- BACK STRAIGHT, KNEES BENT, FEET SHOULDER WIDTH APART.
- FORM A LOOSE GRIP.
- KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN!
- AVOID A QUICK BACK SWING.
- STAY OUT OF THE WATER.
- TRY NOT TO HIT ANYONE.
- IF YOU ARE TAKING TOO LONG, LET OTHERS GO AHEAD OF YOU.
- DON’T STAND DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF OTHERS.
- QUIET PLEASE…WHILE OTHERS ARE PREPARING.
- DON’T TAKE EXTRA STROKES.
WELL DONE. NOW, FLUSH THE URINAL, GO OUTSIDE, & TEE OFF.
Bill Hits the Home Run
What Hillary lacked in support for Barack, Bill Clinton supplied. Bill actually endorsed Barack for President. Hillary’s speech was an, “It’s all about me,” speech. Bill’s was, “Obama’s ready to be President,” speech–in spite of all the things he’s slammed Obama during the primaries. Clinton is a pro and he showed it tonight.
Give it to the Dems
An historic moment. The Democrats have nominated the first black1 candidate for the President of the United States of America. Congratulations to the Democrats! I’m proud of you.
--------------------------------- I say black because, even though African-American is the PC term, there are many black-Americans that are not from Africa [↩]
Two Things I’ve Observed
I’ve observed two things from the Democratic National Convention: First, they’ve done a good job of teaching the dignitaries to clap in front of their own faces in case they get a close up during ovations. And Second, Bill Clinton is great at mugging for the cameras. When he sees the cameras on him, he breaks into a big smile, gets wet eyed, and when Hillary is speaking, mouths, “I love you,” and shakes his head just so proudly.
