John chapter 14 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?" When I read this I think that God has different places for Catholics and Lutherans, but not just that but for Christians and Jews and I like to think he has those places for Muslims and Hindus and all others that love Him and serve Him. I hope it is so and that we can all praise our Maker together in a great noise to Him. What do you think?"
On this day
2008 They poured concrete on my side of the street. This was the year they tore up my street, redid the water and sewer and repaved. One side at a time, so we parked in the next block. We also had a porta potty on our front lawn for the entire summer. It came in handy when Nicole had her annual kegger in May - all the guys were using the potty. It was also the day I had a bad toothache and left work to go to the dentist and Nicole had finals at Wayne State and the Professor asked her to be his assistant the next year. Not sure what came of that, but it was a busy day.
2008 - India set a world record when it sent 10 satellites into orbit from a single launch. Wow! that was a busy day!
Yemen
Theatre[edit]
The history of Yemeni theatre dates back at least a century, to the early 1900s. Both amateur and professional (government-sponsored) theatre troupes perform in the country's major urban centres. Many of Yemen's significant poets and authors, like Ali Ahmed Ba Kathir, Muhammad al-Sharafi, and Wajdi al-Ahdal, have written dramatic works; poems, novels, and short stories by Yemeni authors like Mohammad Abdul-Wali and Abdulaziz Al-Maqaleh have also been adapted for the stage. There have been Yemeni productions of plays by Arab authors such as Tawfiq al-Hakim and Saadallah Wannous and by Western authors, including Shakespeare, Pirandello, Brecht, and Tennessee Williams. Historically speaking, the southern port city of Aden is the cradle of Yemeni theatre; in recent decades the capital, Sana'a, has hosted numerous theatre festivals, often in conjunction with World Theatre Day. I am trying to find something positive here.
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable! Happy Birthday to Josh, Sarah and Julia!
