Oh look, Chicken Thursday.

I am part of Refugee Sponsorship group in a village next to our city. It's actually a nice little village, but they would never allow me to move there because they already have an idiot.

We are rescuing a young Christian couple who had to flee their country after the husband, a reporter, covered a story on a serious crime that ended up getting the perpetrators arrested. The problem was the perps belonged to a group that is part of the dominant religion of the country and they didn't take to a Christian playing such a role. Actually, in that country they don't take to Christians having any role that affects them in any way.

I mention this because I have been working on the group's website where we have a silent auction underway and two of the most popular items being bid on are eggs and chickens - or is it chickens and eggs (I can never remember which comes first.) I chuckled when I noticed this because it was a reminder of the ridiculous corner of my mind that gets excited whenever there is something "chickeny" that I can write about on Chicken Thursdays.

Mission accomplished for another week!

Of course, most of you are too far away to place a bid on these eggs and chickens, but there is one silent auction item available that anyone anywhere can bid on. I have offered up a turnkey, startup website that is a great deal for any individual, church, organization or business that is overdue (it is 2021 after all) for a website, or a renewed website. You can see all the details at:

My mom is a less than fastidious housekeeper.

One evening my dad returned home from work, walked into the kitchen and teased her, "You know, dear, I can write my name in the dust on the mantel."

Mom turned to him and sweetly replied,

"Yes, darling, I know. That's why I married a college graduate."

Self-loathing: I hate intolerant people!

"Be a Billionaire!"

My grandmother told me how she ended up marrying Grandpa.

She was in her 20s, and the man she was dating left for war.

"We were in love," she recalled, "and wrote to each other every week. It was during that time that I discovered how wonderful your grandfather was."

"Did you marry Grandpa when he came home from the war?" I asked.

"Oh, I didn't marry the man who wrote the letters. Your grandfather was the mailman."
