That kinda hurts...

For the past several months, my car has not been doing so good. It started back in March when my car would occassionally lurch when I was driving. When this would happen the check engine light would come on and I would lose pickup. If I turned the car off at a light the check engine light would go off and things would be normal until it happened again. Shortly after that my car became extremely loud and all my co-workers would say it was the exhaust. They were right. The one tube was hanging by a thread and pretty much no exhaust was being pushed out the back. At this point as well the check engine light remained on permanently. A few weeks ago a loud noise started to come from my rignt wheel. It probably wasn't safe to be driving it, but I had to do what I had to do to get to work. The bad part is that my commute totals sixty miles a day. Of course things got worse. The wheel got so loud that I had to use my wife's car. Last Thursday evening, I dropped the car off and by

And so the mighty storm has passed

"   8  Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him:  9  “I now establish my covenant with you and with your descendants after you  10  and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth.  11  I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be destroyed by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.”   12  And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come:  13  I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.  14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,  15  I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.  16  Wheneve

Good Morning!

It is beginning to look like this hurricane is no joke! I am in Pennsylvania and they are issuing severe weather alerts already. I just wanted to say to everyone, be safe and may God get you through this storm safely. Take care everyone and God Bless.

Class of 2024

My wife and I just got back from our son's kindergarten orientation. I can't believe that next Monday his academic career begins. It seems as though the time has just flown. What really got me was when we entered the school, we were greeted by a sign that read "Welcome Class of 2024." I know that that day is far off but at the same time I realize that it is not too far off. I know that on the first day of school the crying is usually reserved for the mother, but I know that I will well up too. My only prayer as he begins his academic career is that as each year passes he remains just as excited and enthusiastic as he is now for school. I don't want him to be like me and how I was with school. I did not mind school or going, but I was always the kid that never applied myself and capable of much more. I look back and realize that has probably came back and bit me in the butt! Dear Lord, I pray that you be with Casey as he begins his academic career and instil

Seriously, what is wrong with people?

I was just surfing around and I found this little gem:  Lohan sues rapper Pitbull for using her name .  Now, I am not one to judge someone, but really Lindsay Lohan...really?  I am actually kind of nervous that I might get sued.  This definitely signifies that her career has truly hit the bottom.  I am not a Hollywood expert, nor do I claim to be, but apparently the drugs, jail time, and all of the poor choices that she has made hurt her credibility as an actress leaving her hurting for money (which I highly doubt, see me about "hurting" for money).   The lyric in question is, "I got it locked up like Lindsay Lohan." Wow, I have heard other artists talk much worse about other celebrities/artists [Eminem] and no one has ever sued. This can only mean one thing, she needs the money! There is one quote in particular that had me chuckling a bit, "The problem is they used her name without compensation in the song, and confused the public about whether or not or no

So it has been a minute, hasn't it?

I would say greetings and good morining to my subscribers/followers here, but unfortunately I do not have any on here so it is just a general Good Morning to all! I can not say that it is at all unusual to not have any subscribers, especially seeing that this is my first post since May. Sometimes I wonder what is the point of blogging or having a blog if no one is taking the time to read it or comment on it. I know I do not live a high profile life and I am nothing more than your average everyday joe, but I think that I can bring something to the table. I may not know what that something is, but when I do...I'll bring it. Now, you may be wondering why I would care one way or the other if someone read what I had to write. In all honesty, I do not really care, but I think that if I did have some followers or subscribers that took interest into my ramblings, or even if I got people leaving comments (real ones, not spam) it would help me stay motivated and blogging an a daily basis
