JANUARY 14 "TWENTY-FOUR AND NO MORE"

TWENTY FOUR AND NO MORE...
THANKS, BUT NO THANKS,
ITS US TWENTY-FOUR
AND NO MORE.
DON'T EVEN THINK
SOMEONE NEW,
WILL EVER WALK THROUGH THAT DOOR.
I REALLY DO APPRECIATE YOUR ZEAL,
BUT I CAN NO LONGER CONCEAL
THAT FACT THAT YOU DON'T KNOW...
IT'S JUST US TWENTY-FOUR... AND NO MORE
I KNOW ALL ABOUT
YOUR FLYERS, OUTREACH AND REVIVALS
BEEN THERE, DONE THAT,
AND ITS ALL A BORE!
DON'T YOU SEE, ITS US TWENTY-FOUR
AND NO MORE!
THERE ONCE WAS A PREACHER WHO BLAZED THROUGH OUR DOOR
HE PREACHED TO US TO REACH THE LOST
AND SAVE THE POOR,
TO EXPECT A VISITOR,
TO WALK THROUGH THAT DOOR
TO CONVINCE US WE COULD....
BE TWENTY-FIVE AND MORE!
SO AGAIN WE SAID,
FLYERS, OUTREACH, REVIVALS AND MORE,
BEEN THERE, DONE THAT ITS ALL A BORE!
BUT I NEVER KNEW THE TWENTY-FOUR
WOULD ONE DAY BE...
LESS THAN......FOUR!
I NEVER KNEW THAT ONE DAY
THEY WOULD COME,
AND SHUT OUR DOORS.
THE TWENTY FOUR WE ARE NO MORE.
FLYERS, OUTREACH, REVIVALS,...
OH HOW I WISH WE HAD DONE MORE,
I'M SORRY LORD,
I THOUGHT... IT WAS SUCH A CHORE...
OUTREACH, REVIVALS, I WISH WE HAD DONE MORE
I'M SORRY LORD, I THOUGHT IT WAS SUCH A BORE.
THE PREACHER PREACHED
TWENTY-FIVE AND MORE,
WE PREACHED,
TWENTY-FOUR AND NO MORE!
WHOEVER THOUGHT WE'D BE LESS THAN FOUR?
WHOEVER THOUGHT THEY'D COME SHUT OUR DOORS?
TWENTY-FOUR AND NO MORE...

OH HOW I WISH... WE HAD DONE MORE!

OCTOBER 15 "RE-UP - MARRIED AGAIN!"

Paul Chudnow, 71 and Phyllis Chudnow, also 71 decide after 50 years to get hitched for another 50. The mood was lighthearted before the 7:30 p.m. service. "I figured if you can last 50 years, you might as well look for another [50 years]," said Phyllis Chudnow, 71, who will be married to Paul Chudnow, 71, for 51 years in June. "It's something to celebrate," Paul said. The couple lives in Fort Lauderdale . What happened 50 years ago I’m sure is very special to this couple, but even more special, even more meaningful, is that 51 years later, whatever they felt, whatever moment they had, 51 years ago, it’s still going on 51 years later! This couple, “has it going on” beyond what any deluded teenager thinks about “how they have it going on”, this is the real deal!

MAY 13 "EVOLUTION VS. CREATION"

WHY VENUS SPINS THE  WRONG WAY -AMERICAN SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL Our neighboring planet Venus is an oddball in many ways. For starters, it spins in the opposite direction from most other planets, including Earth, so that on Venus the sun rises in the west. Not that it happens often: a day there lasts a little more than 243 Earth-days, actually making it longer than a Venusian year, which is only about 224 Earth-days long. Many scientists believe that the long days are a result of the sun's strong pull on the planet. But scientists are still puzzled by Venus's retrograde, or backward, rotation. Evolution teaches that creation started by the "Big Bang Theory"; thence sending all sorts of particulars flying through the explosion through the momentum of a blast. If that were the case, the momentum of the blast, if we can somehow take a grand leap of faith that the blast created planets (big leap I know) than we can only conclude the planets would all be spinning in t...
