Get Faith
Acts chapter 9  "....Immediately (Saul) began to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, saying, "He is the Son of God."  I like what the study writer said in the Theme: If Jesus can meet a Saul of Tarsus and turn him into Paul the apostle, he can meet us and change us into his image."  So if you can meet Jesus and let him inspire you to be converted and strengthened in your faith - well how great would that be?! 

On this day
1982   Ah!  the Offshore Racing days.  The last time Love It raced on the Detroit River out of the Rooster-tail he smoked them.  The boat was faster than boats in the open class.  So on this day we were all pumped and ready for the race the next day.  Chuck had a room at the RenCen and Andy, Ty and Norma all came up for a pre-race party.  We were living high in those days - so much fun.   I had just met Chuck last year at this same race.  He and his boat were from Florida and all the crew that came with it.

1859 - Andrew Lanergan received the first rocket patent. Really?!

Bhutan

Human rights[edit]

Homosexuality is illegal in Bhutan. The Penal Code (Articles 213 & 214) states that same-sex sexual acts (regardless of whether they were consensual or done in private) are punishable by a prison sentence of between one month to less than one year.[80] Some members of the Parliament of Bhutan have publicly called for the anti-gay laws to be repealed, as majority of Bhutanese are against the discriminatory laws.[81]
Very often it is hard for a country to shed the stigma of old beliefs and laws but when the people reject those beliefs it is time to reconsider the law.

Enjoy the day!  Make it memorable!
