Is My Ship Sinking?

I don’t want to be one of those old men who goes on and on about his various ailments. But if I disappear suddenly, I’m sure some of you will want to know why.

Tomorrow I go to Dr. No. 6–or is it 5? or 7? Can’t keep track–and the next day, another one.

I’ve got to get my hip replaced. Several people who’ve had it have told me it’s no problem, I’ll be fine when I wake up, bob’s your uncle.It’s hard for me to believe this. I have a superstitious fear of dying.

And our internet has been on strike most of this morning, so I went out and had a cigar. There won’t be any cigars, where I’m going.

Prayer Request: Heather

Please, Lord, bless and defend this family, your servants. Protect and heal them by the power of Jesus’ name: Amen.

Sorry! Couldn’t Make It Today

How can I tell if my cat is sick? | Berkeley Vet Blog

My afflictions got the better of me today, so it’s a skimpy blog. No Joe Collidge. Nothing in the way of nooze. Maybe I should have posted more hymns.

If I could just get a good night’s sleep!

Next week I’m scheduled for a chin-wag with doctors who are going to install a new hip. Supposedly that’s a relatively easy operation, but I’m not sure there’s any such thing. Then they have to schedule it. And all of a sudden it’s December.

This is getting me down. Please pray for me.

Prayer Request: Heather

Our friend “TheWhiteRabbit” has a prayer request, on behalf of his daughter, Heather.

O Lord our God, we are your people, the sheep of your hand; and we need our shepherd.

Your servant David’s daughter is sick, we don’t know how badly–but we prayer for her, and for your blessing and protection. Please, Father, be swift to heal her. Let David’s family shelter under your wings. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Let’s start with Ella Fitzgerald: Throw Out the Lifeline, sung by Ella Fitzgerald; requested by OhioChessFan.

Of Course They Have an Agenda!

James Carville and Stan Greenberg Have A Message For Obama ...

Big-name Democrats–Obama and James Carville spring to mind–have been haranguing their troops for “not having an agenda.”

This is ca-ca. Of course they have an agenda; they’re just having a hard time selling it. Most of us, by now, know what their agenda is and want no part of it. Here are three details of it.

*World government… run by them and their Far Left wacko following.

*Erasure of free speech. Any notions but their own are simply Wrong-think and must be punished severely.

*Promote LGBTQ and “trans” as if their lives depended on it.

If you’d like to add anything to that three-item list, the door’s wide-open for you. I’m sure President Trump could think of a few more.

Still Sick… (*Sigh*)

People keep saying I look better. But I feel like a boulder rolled downhill and squashed me. I can’t imagine any reason for friends, family, and casual acquaintances to say this if it weren’t so. All I can say for sure is, I’m still sick.

And I have to wait till mid-August just to have a “consultation” about my no-good broken him. They’ll fix it… someday. Meanwhile, it hurts all night, all day. What I wouldn’t give for a good night’s sleep!

I will try to work today. Please pray for me and wish me luck.

Do I Have to Write Nooze Today?

Do owls know better than to try to force themselves uphill? Do we?

I have just posted an eye-wateringly beautiful rendition of In Christ Alone, by Michael W. Smith. I’d kind of like it to stay with me for a while! I do not want to write about Obama and Kamalalalala or any of the rest of ’em. Scat! Shoo!

Anybody out there got any hymns you’d like me to post?

Don’t Move to Iran

There must be a zillion places to go to, other than Iran. Here is Reason No. 5,575 not to move to Iran.

https://www.rferl.org/a/iran-dog-walking-ban-pet-ownership/33439982.html

Yep, they’ve made it against the law to walk your dog. They don’t like dogs. Dogs are “unclean.” Boo, hiss. If you take your dog out for walkies, you stand a very real chance of being tossed into prison.

The ban has taken effect in 18 cities. Scratch those off your vacation list.

And our Democrats want to import Iranian culture because ____________. Fill in the blank and win a box of chiggers!
