Christopher Columbus

“He is Christopher Columbus. Christopher Columbus reached South America in 1498. (look it up, she’s awesome) He wore a hat for many years. (again, check it!) He was born in Italy. He crossed the sea for King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella.”

Best.

Columbus Day Post.

Ever.

Once 16 million strong, U.S. veterans of World War II are dying at a rate of more than 1,000 a day and now number about 2.5 million, the Department of Veterans Affairs estimates.

Take time to thank your father, grandfather or great-grandfather today. They literally changd the course of history.

hold on to that feeling.

Don't Stop Believin'

I think the site’s down. Sorry.

Some perspective:

1 Corinthians 13

The Way of Love

1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

13So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Spelling labor with a “u” is definitely cooler, but alas…

You’ll have to report to class after lunch if you don’t read this article.

Just thought you should know.
