Got our first couches there in 2005. Still have them and on their last legs.

When I grew up, going a few miles away was a pretty big deal, even at 16. Anywhere I couldn’t go on my bike. This and my church was the boundary of external influences on me. Public schools, so the most I had to compare myself to was what Nike’s were in style or getting the latest Mossimo shirt. The world was small around me, so to speak.

Exposing kids to social media has resulted in the entire world being at their fingertips. This results in the feeling of being even smaller or more insignificant in the world due to the infinite comparisons and influences.

I have this folding umbrella type. Most see are the ones that just fold in half. Although it’s a little more difficult to unfold. I like the compactness of the umbrella style.


He would tell some crazy stories. Talk about being in the complete dark/black and silence for hours on recon, etc.

God’s chosen people is the lie they want us to believe.

They were God’s chosen nation to carry his message of faith to the world. When Christ came, they are no longer required for this.

However, Bible prophecy speaks to Israel rising up and having a place in the future after Christ returns. 1/3 to believe in Christ for salvation, etc (Zachariah, Revelation).

This doesn’t mean that I have to support them or their govt in everything they do.

That stuff probably has broken down by now.

It’s not really for reuse. There’s a deep seated fear that if we ever need to paint over a spot, we’ll forget what color was used.

This fear is typically realized months, maybe years after painting. This, along with the last thing anyone wants to do amidst a painting job is manually recording every color used for such a day, results in cans stashed away where they are forgotten for years.
I realized the other day after keeping 20 cans of now-dried up paint, that the places we bought them from have what we bought stored in our account history.
Just saw one at the USS Alabama Battleship Park.

Yeah I don’t think it’s the “best” Halloween movie. Although the subject states this, since these threads quickly go down the path of everyone trying to name a movie they like that hasn’t already been named already, this is why I threw it in.

Practical Magic (1998). Not really a Halloween movie but feels seasonal around it. A sequel just came out and is currently in theaters.

I have had them along my fence line mixed with some mother things and they provide shade, so I’m my case I leave them.
