I have put my leisure reading on hold so I can read selections from the Federalist Papers. (Just a little light reading) Lucky for me someone had the brilliant idea of translating them into today's common language. He had originally translated all of them, but when putting the book together it was decided to only include what was most relavant to today. (As we have already adopted the constitution) While still easier to read and understand, it still presents itself as something needing to be read and pondered multiple times. (Kinda like Scripture, just too get the full meaning of them. If you think about it, the papers are kind of the Scriptures of how our Constitution was established) As you may know, I hate reading and watching anything more than once. The mystery and excitement of the first experience is never the same on subsequent visits. (I have found that there is an exception to this, for me, if enough time has gone by, say 20 years, then I have no problem and it's almost as if it were the first time)
Katy Perry's fail...
You may have heard that Katy wanted us to pray for Israel. (That is not the fail) She received quite a backlash of resentment for her tweet. (Wait for it, here it comes...) Katy recanted quickly. (And FAIL!)
Just a few tips for those, like Katy, who find themselves in the public spot light:
1-- You can't please everyone (in this case the palestines)
2-- Understand what you say and be prepared to back it up and stand up for it or don't say it.
Roku....
The little miracle that transforms old out dated televisions, like mine, into an internet app supported (apps like you get on any blu ray player or HD TV) power houses.
I recently got 2 of them. (because 1 is never enough) I have been accused of hogging the computer and I don't think I get to use it often enough. The computer has become my TV, everything I like to watch is on either Netflix or Hulu. (And now GBTV) I still need to get Hulu plus to move the majority of my TV experience back to the actual TV, anyone want to go halves? Or I give you access to either GBTV or netfilx (for Roku or TV apps only, don't want any accidental account changes)
And now, because I have thought about the meaning of my words, pray for Israel and stand with them, for we are all of Abraham.
