March 9, 2014 Sunday

Remember the Sabbath to keep it Holy.  (no exercise)


2 Peter - chapter 2 "But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you."


On this day:
1936 - The German press warned that all Jews who vote in the upcoming elections would be arrested.   Spepaking of false prophets - Hitler.
1978 - I was living in lala land.  Pete, my then boyfriend, and I were going to a marriage counselor.  Now,  if you have to do that before you get married...... well you can guess.  Have to laugh at ourselves.


Parenting - Have you wondered what the "reality" shows are doing to your child's concept of reality?  I watched too many romantic movies growing up.  It isn't like that.


Book club - The Nine. Have moved on to the inmates rights at Guantanamo.  Now that is interesting.


New Orleans -
Much of the population in early days was of the wildest and, in part, of the most undesirable character: deported galley slaves, trappers, gold-hunters and city scourings; and the governors' letters are full of complaints regarding the riffraff sent as soldiers as late as Kerlerec's administration (1753–1763).
Two lakes in the vicinity, Lake Pontchartrain and Maurepas, commemorate respectively Louis Phelypeaux, Count Pontchartrain, minister and chancellor of France, and Jean Frederic Phelypeaux, Count Maurepas, minister and secretary of state; a third is really a landlocked inlet of the sea, and its name (Lake Borgne) has reference to its incomplete or defective character.


Enjoy the day!  Make it memorable!
