My somewhat sarcastic father used to tell me to never pray a prayer I didn't expect to get heard. He would then end that piece of advice with, "... 'cause ya' know the answer's always gonna' be Yes, No, or Maybe." Wise 'ole coot!

I am Christian and so you probably know good and well what I believe in and where I stand (and to those who wish to criticize -- it's alright, I've got broad shoulders).

No, I don't have a church. Yes, I have lived longer than anyone expected me to. No, I am not as healthy as I wish I were. But you sir, are going to be prayed for whether you've asked it or not! Now take your medicine!

I only know you 'electronically' but I think I can still understand what kind of man you are. You're in our thoughts and prayers.
