The Whipping

This is a story of a school with a class of students that no teacher had been able to handle. Two or three teachers had been run off from this school in one year by the unruly students.

A young man, just out of college, heard about the class and applied to the school.

The principal asked the young man, "Do you know what you are asking for? No one else has been able to handle these students. You are just asking for a terrible beating."

After a few moments of silent prayer, the young man looked at the principal and said, "Sir, with your consent, I accept the challenge. Just give me a trial basis."

A Prayer

May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God.
Let this presence settle into your bones and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.
It is there for each and every one of us.

--Saint Theresa

1. If you're too open minded, your brains fall out.

2. Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

3. Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.

4. Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

5. If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you haven't tried before.

7. Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that life is serious.

9. For every action, there is an equal and opposite government program.

Random Thoughts

Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.

Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst, for they are sticking to their diets.

God put me on earth to accomplish a certain number of things. Right now I am so far behind, I will live forever.

If you can remain calm, you just don't have all the facts.

9 Brain Quirks You Didn't Realise You Had

Wed, 11 Jul 2007 22:59:58 GMT

1) Your short-term memory has a max capacity of seven.

Humans have three forms of memory: sensory, long-term and short-term. Long-term memory is like hard-drive space, while short-term memory works like a very small RAM. This short-term memory can hold only about five to nine (average is seven) items at a time.

2) Chartreuse is the most visible color.

Your eyes have receptors for blue, green and red. Being in the middle, yellow-green triggers the most of these receptors to fire

3) Your subconscious is smarter than you are.

Or at least more powerful

4) You have two nervous systems.

One set controls excitation and the other controls inhibition

5) Your brain is awful at probability.

6) Your memory isn’t great either.

people are highly likely to misremember past events

it is incredibly easy to suggest a memory that never happened

7) You can perceive depth with one eye.

8 ) Long-term memory shuts down during sleep.

9) You have an instant playback feature.

I told him we would find him a bed, but to rest on the porch. I went inside and finished getting supper around and when we were ready, I asked the old man if he would join us.

"No, thank you. I have plenty." And he held up a brown paper bag.

When I had finished the dishes, I went out on the porch to talk with him a few minutes. It didn't take a long time to see that this old man had an oversized heart crowded into that tiny body. He told me he fished for a living to support his daughter, her five children, and her husband, who was hopelessly crippled from a back injury. He didn't tell it by way of complaint. In fact, every other sentence was prefaced with thanks to God for a blessing. He was grateful that no pain accompanied his disease, which was apparently a form of skin cancer. He thanked God for giving him the strength to keep going.

At bedtime, we put a camp cot in the children's room for him. When I got up in the morning, the bed linens were

The Pots God Plants Us In

Our house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to out patients at the clinic.

Yet his voice was pleasant as he said, "Good evening. I've come to see if you've a room for just one night. I came for a treatment this morning from the eastern shore, and there's no bus 'til morning." He told me he'd been hunting for a room since noon, but with no success. No one seemed to have a room.

"I guess it's my face. I know it looks terrible, but my doctor says with a few more treatments, it will get better."

For a moment, I hesitated, but his next words convinced me. "I could sleep in this rocking chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning."
