Well, I appreciate that, and I would love to but it would take hours, and besides, the greatest truth resides within the greatest simplicity. My statement above is extremely profound in its simplicity.

But I welcome the discussion, only I can't get into that now (I'm at work - shhh).

Thanks for the response!

Oh, I don't know - it is ruled paper, after all!

Looks like I've stirred up quite the hornet's nest - good, good. Reminds me of a saying by Jesus about being a rock to make them stumble.

But seriously, I'm ready to quit talking whenever y'all are ready for me to.

Nard, have fun! I remember going as a kid in the '50s - even seeing Walt himself! I have a photo taken there of my brother, me, and Roy of the Mickey Mouse Club. I haven't been in years, but I know I'd get a little misty as soon as I stepped onto Main Street...

Braling II: Back! It's 4:35PM. We have the yearly pass thing and the spur of the moment trips don't cost. And lo and behold, they AGAIN raised their admission pricefor non-card holders. $83.00 per person! Now there are two different parks, California Disney, and the original one. Two different admissions. Today, place was overcrowded, temps are in the mid 80's.

The way to do this and first thing in the morning. Lots of rides have changed, and they got rid of my favorite awhile back, the 360 degree round theater. Guess that's too stuffy. High-tech movie theater nowadays is 'Bug's Life Theater'. That'll surely get anyones heart a pumpin'.

83$! Holy smoke! I'm glad we have the SoCal Residents Yearly Annual Thingy too.

We're next going the week of November 27th. You should come with - it'll be fun. And I promise I won't say a word about the Saviour!

Yeah, today would not have been ideal. Those Santa Ana's play havoc with my sinuses.

Who is Jesus Christ? He is The Lord Jesus Christ. He is the great I Am. He is the Trinity. He is totally human and He is totally God. He is were our sins go—but only by His grace. It doesn’t matter what we do—but it’s kind of nice to try to live a life he would approve of and to be an example.

When I think of Him He is the Maverick Rabbi and a totally selfless man who rejected wealth. And He is the first and only real Christian who ever lived. And all that we can really do is “try to love everyone we meet”—oh, and “always remember to take [our] hats off in elevators.”

Chap, that's THE question we will ALL have to answer; what He asked the disciples; "Who do YOU say that I am?"

Nardster, Eighty-three dollars?!?!?!

(though, I guess adding up all those "E tickets" in the '50s ...)

More Agnes. And even more Moorehead.
