I’ll be cranking up the zero turn mower and the weed-eater later in the day to knock down the tall stuff that has popped up around the farm. I know you working stiffs will be doing the same thing (albeit with wrenches, keyboards, and hand trucks) at sundry work spaces across the country.
Y’all have a great day. Keep the sun in your face and the wind at your back.
Four months ago, the Browns said, Sheehy-Guiseppi was sleeping outside a Miami gym after spending his last $200 on training.
A former teammate from a flag-football league tipped him off to the time and location of the Browns’ spring practice. He convinced Browns management that he knew the team’s vice president of player personnel (he didn’t). He walked up to the VP, introduced himself and talked his way into a spot alongside the invited players.
That gave Sheehy-Guiseppi a chance to catch balls and run the 40-yard dash, which he did in an impressive 4.38 seconds and that was enough to earn a spot at the Browns’ next practice a week later. At that workout he impressed enough to get a contract and a role in the preseason opener.
The game was the first time he faced a live punt return since his days at Phoenix College. Sheehy-Guiseppi had misplaced his cleats before the game, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, so he was running in borrowed shoes..
To be out of football as long as he’s been out, and still have that type of speed? That means he’s fast. And now he’s eating three square meals a day, sleeping in his own bed. The sky’s the limit for him.”
The Washington Examiner is running with a story that proves the Trumpster’s point about Joe being overcooked. What Trump tweeted is directly below. A portion of what the Examiner reported follows the tweet. Link is here. What may be important to consider is that this is the third verbal stumble in as many days.
2020 Democratic White House hopeful Joe Biden added to his recent series of gaffes by claiming he was vice president during the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, last year that killed 17.
Speaking with reporters in Iowa on Saturday, the former vice president said, “Those kids in Parkland came up to see me when I was vice president.” He went on to claim that lawmakers on Capitol Hill at the time were “basically cowering, not wanting to see them.”
“They did not want to face it on camera,” he added. Biden, however, was no longer in office at the time.
Appreciate your patience while I break away from the keyboard to do farm and garden chores. Got bunches done yesterday and today. I did manage to put up more Jap-a-leno’s and now have a respectable store of salsa on the shelf.
So I hear that Jeff has bit the dust. While it couldn’t have happened to a more deserving guy, I’ll bet dollars to donuts that the federal investigation now gets shit-canned.
Sorry to report that I used ‘drop caps’ for the first time on this site for the sole purpose of placing the word ‘ASS’ in big capital letters ! Y’all enjoy the balance of the weekend.
The only thing they could do that is more idiotic would be to disguise themselves as a deer during hunting season. Who raised this brood? We should all write the EPA and suggest that they test the school on the left coast for lead based paint.
There are many sayings in Thomas’ Gospel that seem un-understandable. They’re mysterious and draw me in because they hint at a greater meaning that is just out of reach. That, as I believe, the sayings have been modified, jumbled up (portions of sayings intermingled with other sayings) and that they appear to be incorrectly ordered make for difficult reading (and understanding).
I believe that understanding some of the sayings is contingent on first understanding another saying. I am also beginning to think that an understanding of some of the sayings requires that it be considered/contemplated/thought of along with another saying. In other words not sequentially but rather simultaneously.
The 50th is highly esoteric saying. It’s challenging. It may be a ‘keystone’ that many of the other sayings need in order to stand, or it may be a ‘rosetta stone’ that is useful in interpreting meaning. Speculatively (vice operatively) It could be the stone the builders rejected in saying 66 or the stones mentioned in saying 13 or 19 or even 30 . It may be none of these. What is certain is the terms and concepts mentioned in 50 exist in many places throughout the balance of Thomas’ Gospel. Below is what a quick and cursory look at 50 and it’s relationship to other sayings looks like. I focused on four terms: light, became manifest, being, and image.
50. “If they say to you, ‘Where did you come from?’, say to them, ‘We came from the light, the place where the light came into being on its own accord and established itself and became manifest through their image.’ If they say to you, ‘Is it you?’, say, ‘We are its children, we are the elect of the living father.’ If they ask you, ‘What is the sign of your father in you?’, say to them, ‘It is movement and repose.'”
83 “The images are manifest to man, but the light in them remains concealed in the image
of the light of the father. He will become manifest, but his image will
remain concealed by his light.
84. When you see your
likeness, you rejoice. But when you
see your
images which came into being before you, and which neither die nor become manifest, how much you will have
to bear.
5. “Recognize what is in your sight, and that which is hidden from you will become plain to you. For there is nothing hidden which will not become manifest.“
6. Do not tell lies, and do not do what you hate, for all things are plain in the sight of heaven. For nothing hidden will not become manifest, and nothing covered will remain without being uncovered.
11. “This heaven will pass away, and the one above it will pass away. The dead are not alive, and the living will not die. In the days when you consumed what is dead, you made it what is alive. When you come to dwell in the light, what will you do? On the day when you were one you became two. But when you become two, what will you do?”
19. “Blessed is he who came into being before he came into being …..
Hope I don’t break my mind thinking through what all this might mean !
