One’s Not Mine

I just really liked this shot. Right out of the box.

That’s Samuel Katz, the oh-so-adorable offshoot of Daniel & Autumn (also disgustingly adorable), plus Samo and Gracie.

Fisher rejects racial discrimination at Universal Studios

Many Universal Studios park goers looked on as Fisher stood in line at “E.T. the Extra Terrestrial” and declared that he couldn't wait to shoot E.T. with a laser gun. This is in light of the fact that it is required in the M.I.B (Men in Black) ride.

Who gets to decide which aliens are shot and which ones are hugged? It would seem that my son has a strong sense for equal justice. If you’re gonna disintegrate one, you should probably disintegrate them all.

Winner Takes All

Please join in prayer with the Christians of Florida. It’s their Presidential Primary today, and it’s "winner takes all.” Florida has 57 delegates and they will not be divided among the top candidates. That’s 5% of the total needed to win the nomination. There’s no red ribbon today. Second place gets you zilch. Expect prominent faces to drop out after this contest.

Please pray that the Christians of Florida will anoint a Godly king. Pray that a pro-life candidate emerges as the winner today. Pray that we get a champion for the unborn in the White House.

Land of the Lakota

I’m sitting here in Charlotte waiting to fly to Sioux Falls, SD. Bound4LIFE chapter leaders from five surrounding states are gathering there today to make plans for the Midwest. I love it! It doesn't get any better than this. I was supposed to be in L.A. today, but God rearranged my schedule so that I could be up there. The temperature in Charlotte has dropped in the last few days, and I hear that South Dakota is having a heat wave today. So they should feel about the same.

I met with Senator Brownback in DC on Tuesday. After several years of effort he said that he had the Native American Apology Bill hitting the Senate floor that day. This truly is amazing. He said the debate process will begin, and he hopes to finally get it to a vote. Sam worked with some of our Native American friends to bring this initiative before the Legislature. This would bring significant healing between the U.S. government and the First Nation’s people concerning the hundreds* of broken covenants that have not been forgotten.

–Special prayer for my friends Gabe & Vi Medicine Eagle, Jay Swallow and Nigel Big Pond. I know how important this is to you to see healing of the nation.

C’mon! The new National Treasure movie [ATTENTION SPOILERS!] featured a massive treasure of gold belonging to the Lakota that was discovered under the Black Hills. That treasure became a blessing to the entire nation in the present day. Could be prophetic. Even the name is prophetic.

* I cannot recall right now the exact number of broken treaties, but I think it's like near 500. This is inexcusable, but I hope forgiveable. If anyone knows the exact number, please leave a comment.

What do Lindsay Lohan and Brooke Amabile have in common?

Well, not much at all except that they’re competing for the title “Most Photographed Teenager in America.” (and Lindsay isn’t even a teenager anymore.)

Go Brooke!
