DESCENDENTS OF ABRAHAM...SINCE WE ARE ALL FAMILY, LET'S PARTY, LIMING, FIESTA, FOREVER!!! ALL NIGHT LONG!!!

HEY ALL:

We can certainly put aside all our political agendas and sovereign nations and plans to move to other continents and building separate governments and scholarship and rantings for a little while...

and just enjoy each other's company...

can't we?

Richard, hello

Can I refer you to what Jesus said in FIRST BOOK OF JOHN in the Holy Bible. Now you and I both love Jesus so lets both listen to his words together " Chapter 8 verse 36 "So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed. I know that ou are descendants of Abraham: yet you look for an opportunity to kill me, because there is no place inou for my word. I declare what I have seen in the Father's presence: as for you, you should do what you have heard from the Father.

They answered him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were AQbraham"s children, you would be doing What Abraham did, But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that i heard from God. This not what Abraham did. you are indeed doing what you father does. They said to him, " We are not illegitimate children: we have one father, God himself." Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now I am here. I did not come on my own, but he sent me. Why do you not understand what I say ? It is because you cannot accept my wor. you are from your father the devil, and you choose to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does nogt stand in the gtruth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. But because i tell the truth, you do not believe me. "

SOUNDS TO ME THAT JESUS POINTS TO 2 DIFFERANT FATHERS: A FATHER OF TRUTH OR ABRAHAM AND ANOTHER FATHER OF LIES OR THE DEVIL.

Do you understand something differant in what Jesus was saying out of his own mouth ?

Dear Jamal:

How about we postpone this conversation to another time and place.

While it is true that you and I have a different perspective on issues--how about we try to find something we BOTH can appreciate.

How about picking up a "party" spirit???

We can dispute and debate later.

So Irma--why not bring some of that music over here!!!

NOW GET THIS AS SOMETHING THAT SURPRISED ME AND MADE ME THINK ABOUT THIS FIESTA post...

I saw last night for the first time on tv an ad promoting a new contest at the Feather River Indian casino in Chico, Ca. This contest is one you can win daily "OLDIES BUT GOODIESrecords FROM THE 50s and the grand fanially at the end of this contest is going to be for an arthnic JUKE BOX!!!!...

can you beat this for me saying how our youth just maybe have never seen a record?!? lol.

(smile)

It sure is C-H-A-N-G-E..."I" can look forward to. (smile) As Usher and Tina Turner are my 2 favorites at this moment I sure look forward to their being there...

and, by the way my oldest daughter's favorite music is country and western, my mom's was Jazz and classical music. and, her favorite musican to not like was Elvis Presley. I do admit that by the time the music scene had changed from my era's musical tastes , I could fully understand my mom's out look. lol.(smile)

Rich, am I nuts or did you say something at the begining, say like in the theme of this of this blog about not bringing in reliegious one upmanships into our festivity?!?

Or, am "I" just too wrapped up in the need and the purpose of respecting other's points of view over my own selfish egotistical needs that can never be satisfied??????

Rich, I do so apologize for your even having to make that comment that is right above this one of mines.(smile)

aFTER YOU BLOG ABOUT THAT DRUNK PONE CALL PROFESSOR, i THINK WE MAY HAVE TO CHECK ALL OF THE PHONES AT THE DOOR LIKE THE CAOTS. LOL..

yES rICH, LETS BRING OUT SOME OF OUR FAMILY'S CLOSET COMICS...they have started a bi-monthly week end comic try outs locally that is called teh garage comic show and they hold them in different local home garages along with singing and good foods and dancing. (smile)

Is there a doctor in the house for this person and his being unable to get enough home made butter pecan icecream???(smile)

Rich, this is the very reason I am so glad that Jen just as she was about to throw out some old, old records she was able to learn how valuable they were eventhough this generation maybe have never even seen an old record..."I" will have to pull out the old record players and maybe get them fixed...what a conversation piece this would be for even Siebra's young 20 somethings at our party because they can not drink yet some of the Vodka and Gin Cynthia needs you to bring her on another blog to help with that you know what that is getting on her last nerve over there and I refuse to go back to although I did enjoy the blog so very much???? looooool (smile)

Actually Rich they had a program on last night about obsilete thechnology...old movie cameries and records and such from formet times before computer every things. (smile)

All I have to say in defense of the "good old days" is things did last for a life time and not only a few years or until the next highest priced WHATE EVER COMPUTER PROGRAM hit the market!!!! lol

(smile)

i DONT' DRINK EITHER cYNTHIA SO SOME ONE MUST COME UP WITH SOME NON ALCOHOLIC DRINKS...me I have a house full of cook books and magazines so I will come u with somethings. for us non drinkeers..plus Siebra I don't think is of legal drinking age...oh and as you mentioned Clcak at least you and I will not be making any drunk phone calls to be loosing any jobs over. (smile)

Siebra, I have been looking for Jen also, because this is why I was gone for a short time...

I know that Jen likes butter milk and I ran across a recipt by a Peggy Gwillim in my monthly Taste of HOme cooking magazine called Tangy Potatoe Salad...it is the first potatoe salad recipt I've seen that has butter milk and radishs and white wine vinegar in it. And, it looked so interesting and delicous I just had to make it...

please don't tell brother Cow how I just had to take a break from making home made butter pecan icecream...someone give him a glass of wine (smile)

Great foods, music, dancing and sharing lies sounds like a winner...me, I can talk about cooking, gardening and good books for ever. (smile)

Cynthia, you and I must sneak off and do some shoe shopping or just shoe looking and day dreaming about those that are totslly our of our price range as I also follow a budget... (smile)
