BJ Not BK

I hate cliches...don't you? Let's cut to the chase. If you could have any super power in the world what would it be? Most people say flying and most men say X-ray vision or invisibility. We won't go there. Here is the challenge to you my faithful readers. What obscure super power would you choose for yourself if you could? Here is mine: I would give myself the ability to manipulate and control melon fruits. I would call myself - HONEY DO!!! My powers would give me the ability to control, manipulate, move, transform, shape, any melon fruit into any fashion I so choose. Here are some examples: I could fashion a jet fighter out of fresh cantelope. With a watermelon I could build a bridge or heal the planet of global warming. You get the idea. My weakness would be that melon fruit is seasonal.

I came across this movie the other day and had to share it with you. The title of the file is "One Word" and was created by Chelsea Moore 17 of Tennessee. The film is short but very cool [ link ] about 60 seconds. The concept is also simple but great. If you could pick one word to define you, to be your charge, to guide and then live that word out what would it be? Here are a few I thought of for myself - laughter, warm, close By the way...Chelsea was honored in New York City as one of nine winners of an international film making contest for 16- to 25-year-olds, she is 17, and she is home schooled. What is your word?

It is estimated that only 5 people read a book last year and that out of 300 million Americans (plus 20 million illegals) over 299 million have never read one book from start to finish. What a sham, what a shame. This all ends today. Dr. Francis Schaeffer put for the idea that Rome did not collapse due to the invasion of the barbarians but that the demise of Rome came from a prevailant apathy among the citizens. The citizens gave up the pursuit of all things intelectual, their creativity grew stagnant, and the turned to satisfying their own selfish desires, sounds vaguley familiar huh?
