There are people there, but I didn't see any of the usual
suck this suck that stuff posted by the regular sickos.
I mean, I was told about it. Not that I'd actually go to that NG.

I went to the NG. Richard had posted in the past 7 days, so had
Dougal. And obviously Rumple was still around.

(for the essential spelling flame) If a flooging is anything like a
fledgeling, they can usually fly there without needing additional postage

Something Xerox is doing

If you go to this web site,

www.LetsSayThanks.com

you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will

print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently

serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it

will go to some member of the armed services.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received

a bunch of these? Whether you are for or against

the war, our guys and gals over there need to know

we are behind them...

# It has been claimed the only reason the English Language is so widely
used is a mere historical accident - the prevalence of the erstwhile British
Empire.
But it is this very cosmopolitan venture, plus the "rough edges being
knocked off" of the "mongrel" British Isles (with its own invasions, in
turn), which has polished up, and streamlined, English into a very efficient
communicator.
Don't be too quick to laugh at its spelling either - which is more
sophisticated than many will credit; as witness various attempts at reform,
which mostly fail.
True, such Rules of Spelling as exist may have many exceptions, but the
Rules are handy to know and apply.
As to English versus German - English ("Anglish") was once Germanic
itself, as per the invasion of Britain by the Angles. Saxons, and Jutes.
My own modest reform of English would be in use of "ch", such that it
always sounded thus, by slight modification of words: "schalet, children,
sckool" - thus retaining connection with original, yet being consistent.
The weakness of English is that it has insufficient vowel symbols to cope
with its vowel sounds, but this is where rules take over, and diacritical
marks are avoided.

TOPIC: Christian group prays for troubled Hollywood Celebs--why?

==============================================================================

== 1 of 1 ==

From: Tim Howard

www.rawstory.com/news/mochila/Christian_group_prays_for_celebs_11152007.html

Just to summarize the above story:

A Christian group called the Hollywood Prayer Network, who according to
the story, has over 5,000 members (why has this group of weirdos not
gotten any attention before) has them pick a celeb to pray for.
Troubled celebs like Brittany, Lindsay, Paris, etc. are the top prayer
receivers. The group even claims one of their members met and gave a
Bible to Paris Hilton recently, and they plan "to pass one on to Spears
later this month." I guess they know her schedule. : )

Why would they waste their time? According to the story, "Members of
the network, which has chapters in 16 U.S. cities and eight countries,
see Hollywood as the 21st century's largest mission field, a powerful
industry that can be used to sow the seeds of an international cultural
and religious revival." And if you are wondering if they really take
themselves this seriously and think marginally talented self-centered
Hollywood celebs are that important to everyone's lives, consider this
quote from one member, Robert Johnston, a professor of theology and
culture at Fuller Seminary in Pasadena...
"The prayer network is the equivalent, and perhaps more important,
than praying for our president," Johnston said. "Just as churches have
traditionally prayed for leaders, now we recognize that one of our
primary sources of leadership is the entertainment industry."

I guess these silly religious celebfans have never read the parable of
the sower. Don't sow your seeds on rocks or among weeds, sow them on
fertile ground.
