John chapter 13 "So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas son of Simon Iscariot. After he received the piece of bread, Satan entered into him." I suggest that we don't think to badly of Judas, he had a role to play and if not for all the sin in the world which all of us own, Jesus would not have had to die. He came for all of us, to save us from our sin - don't judge Judas to harshly.
On this day
1984 I had flown to Dallas to be with my friend Linda. She had been attacked in her apartment parking lot and when she got loose and ran, he shot her 3 or 4 times in the back. She was lucky to survive. A neighbor stepped out on the balcony of his apartment and fired a rifle at the kid and he took off. On this day Linda was still in the hospital after multiple surgeries to repair the damage. A detective came in and asked her if she would look at pictures to identify the kid. She did and they eventually found the kid and prosecuted him. It it Texas and he is probably still in prison, if alive. Linda got out of the hospital and wanted to go walk around the mall, so we did and then went and to her apartment and played cards, which we always did. I'm glad to still have my friend Linda.

Carthage Tunisia
Carthage was one of the largest cities of the Hellenistic period and was among the largest cities in preindustrial history. Whereas by AD 14, Rome had at least 750,000 inhabitants and in the following century may have reached 1 million, the cities of Alexandria and Antioch numbered only a few hundred thousand or less.[9] According to the not always reliable history of Herodian, Carthage rivaled Alexandria for second place in the Roman empire.[10]
On top of Byrsa hill, the location of the Roman Forum, a residential area from the last century of existence (early second century BCE.) of the Punic city was excavated by the French archaeologist Serge Lancel. The neighborhood, with its houses, shops, and private spaces, is significant for what it reveals about daily life there over 2100 years ago.[11]
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable!
Happy Birthday Kathy! Greg and Heather!
