Sunday greetings everyone!

The link to last week's video share was not totally obvious, so if you missed taking a flyby of Jupiter you can take it by clicking here.

This week's video share is a blast from my past - well, actually it's a wreck from my past.

I used to race at the local speedway where my nickname was the Pastor of Disaster. I raced in a couple of different classes, but my favourite was hit to pass demo trucks. In that class you aren't allowed to pass the truck in front of you without making some kind of "contact" with it. The "contact" can be bumping, spinning, flipping or a combination and while you are doing that to pass, the guy behind you has the same rule to pass you.

This video is of a big wreck I was involved in back in 2002. I'm driving the #61, blue, Ford f150 and yes, that's my rear end in the air when I hit the wall! You can watch it at this link.

Enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

Quote #1955

quote 1955

"A man who is born again is careful of his own soul.
He tries not only to avoid sin - but also to avoid everything which may lead to it.
He is careful about the company he keeps.
He know that "bad company corrupts good morals" and that evil is more contagious than good, just as disease is more infectious than health.
He is careful about the use of his time; his chief desire is to spend it profitably.
He desires to live like a soldier in an enemy country - to wear his armor continually and to be prepared for temptation.
He is diligent to be a watchful, humble, prayerful man."

- J. C. Ryle

Friendly Competition

man6 A group of friends who prided themselves on their intelligence set out to have a contest of wits. Each person in turn asked a question, and anyone who volunteered an answer that was wrong dropped out. If no one could answer, the questioner himself had to answer, and if he was wrong, he dropped out. Each dropout had to put $5 into the pot.

Eventually the matter boiled down to Thompson and Brown, and the erudition of each one boiled up so that both were held even for half an hour.

Finally Thompson said, "How does a gopher dig a hole without leaving a mound of sand at the lip?"

Brown thought about that and said, "I can't answer that. However, since it's your question, you had better answer it."

Thompson said coolly, as he reached for the accumulated pile of bills. "Easy. The gopher starts at the bottom of the hole and that's where he leaves the sand."

"Hold on," said Brown heatedly, grasping Thompson's wrist to prevent him from taking the pot. "How does the gopher get to the bottom of the hole in the first place?"

"That's YOUR question," said Thompson as he took the money.
