National Day Of Prayer

Thursday, May 7th, is the National Day of Prayer.

Many churches are meeting of the evening to pray together. Even though we are out-of-state, we play to attend. I would like to make a humble request to all my fellow Christians. I've been given a great burden for our country. We're losing our heritage and our culture every day. My humble request is that all Christ believing people, far and wide, rich or poor, black or white or yellow or pink, to please pray for our Nation ALL DAY in their hearts. Please lift up our leaders to our merciful God and Father for scrutiny. That they be convicted in their hearts and ask to be saved by the blood of Jesus, for their sakes and for our nation. And also that there will be a great revival that the unsaved may know Christ as their Saviour. Jesus loves us all very much and wants all to be saved from the wrath to come.

Maybe if we all pray for mercy, have contrition and humble ourselves before a mighty and fearful God, He will have mercy on us. Only He can bring forth the hope to save our nation from this evil lawless regime. I'm not being a drama queen. This is a real threat and we might still have time to correct it.

I love our country and my fellow man. I only want the best for us all. To live free, have a strong economy and be safe. I know you want that also, not only for ourselves but the generations to come after us.

So, let's be Soldiers for Christ that the lost be saved and our nation brought back from the brink of oblivion.

Thanks y'all. God bless you! Lift high that royal banner and BE BOLD FOR HIM!

"Stand up!--stand up for Jesus,
Ye soldiers of the Cross!
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss.
From vict'ry unto vict'ry
His army shall He lead
Till ev'ry foe is vanquished
And Christ is Lord indeed."

"Stand up!--stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet-call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict
In this His glorious day!
Ye that are men, now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger
And strength to strength oppose."

"Stand up!--stand up for Jesus!
Stand in His strength alone;
The arm of flesh will fail you,
Ye dare not trust your own.
Put on the Gospel armor,
Each piece put on with prayer;
Where duty calls or danger,
Be never wanting there."

"Stand up!--stand up for Jesus!
The strife will not be long;
This day the noise of battle,
The next, the victor's song.
To him that overcometh
A crown of life shall be;
He with the King of Glory
Shall reign eternally."

"Stand Up!--Stand Up for Jesus"

New Cruise Package Available

I was checking cruise lines because I heard the rates are very cheap right now. I found a Somalia cruise package that departs from Sawakin (in the Sudan) and docks at Bagamoya (in Tanzania).

What I found interesting and enlightened is that the cruise is encouraging people to bring their 'High powered weapons' along on the cruise. If you don't have weapons you can rent them right there on the boat. They claim to have a master gunsmith on board and will have reloading parties every afternoon. The cruise lasts from 4-8 days and nights and costs a maximum of $3,200 per person double occupancy (4 days). All the boat does is sail up and down the coast of Somalia waiting to get hijacked by pirates.

Here are some of the costs and claims associated with the package:

* $800.00 US/per day double occupancy (4 day max billing).
M-16 full auto rental $ 25.00/day ammo at 100 rounds of 5.56 armor piercing ammo at 15.95.
* Ak-47 riffle @ No charge. ammo at 100 rounds of 7.62 com block ball ammo at 14.95.
* Barrett M-107 .50 cal sniper rifle rental 55.00/day ammo at 25 rounds 50 cal armor piercing at 9.95.
* Crew members can double as spotters for 30.00 per hour (spotting scope included).
* They even offer RPG's at 75 bucks and 200 dollars for 3 standard loads.
* "Everyone gets use of free complimentary night vision equipment and coffee and snacks on the top deck from 7pm-6am."
* Meals are not included but seem reasonable.

Most cruises offer a mini-bar ... these gung ho entrepreneurs offer ... get this ... "MOUNTED MINIGUN AVAILABLE @ 450.00 per 30 seconds of sustained fire".

"Sign my arse up!", I proclaimed to the computer screen.

They advertise group rates and corporate discounts and even claim "FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY". Sounds like good wholesome fun to me.

They even offer a partial money back if not satisfied.

Here's some text from the ad:

"We guarantee that you will experience at least two hijacking attempts by pirates or we will refund half your money back including gun rental charges and any unused ammo (mini gun charges not included). How can we guarantee you will experience a hijacking? We operate at 5 knots within 12 miles of the coast of Somalia. If an attempted Hijacking does not occur we will turn the boat around and cruise by at 4 knots. We will repeat this for up to 8 days making three passes a day along the entire length of Somalia. At night the boat is fully lit and bottle rockets are shot off at intervals and loud disco music beamed shore side to attract attention. Cabin space is limited so respond quickly. Reserve your package before Feb 29 and get 100 rounds of free tracer ammo in the caliber of your choice."

As if all that isn't enough to whet your appetite, there were a few testimonials.

"I got three confirmed kills on my last trip. I'LL never hunt big game in Africa again. I felt like the Komandant in Schindlers list
---- Lars, Hamburg Germany

"Six attacks in 4 days was more than I expected. I bagged three pirates and my 12yr old son sank two rowboats with the minigun. PIRATES 0 -PASSENGERS-32! Well worth the trip. Just make sure your spotter speaks English."
---- Ned, Salt Lake city, Utah USA

"I haven't had this much fun since flying choppers in NAM. Don't worry about getting shot by pirates as they never even got close to the ship with those weapons they use and their crappy aim. Kinda reminds me of a drunken 'juicer' door gunner we picked up from the motor pool back in Nam."
---'Chopper' Dan, Toledo USA

"Like shooting ducks in a barrel. They turned the ship around and we saw them bleed and cry in the water like little girls. Saw one wounded pirate eaten by sharks. What a laugh riot!! This is a must do."
--- Zeke, Minnahaw Springs, Kentucky USA


Finally, someone had the common sense to cash in AND solve a major problem. These folks deserve a medal!

Dangerous Demographics

Shadetree Mechanic's R Us

My better half put a set of Lowering Links on my Suzuki V-Strom today. My bike has been just a little too tall to flat foot it at a full stop. With the Lowering Links in place, I can now rest my feet completely on the ground.


In the rear, he replaced the two factory suspension links with two after market suspension links which are about 1/2 inch longer. This raised the rear suspension by about 7/8 inch thus lowering the bike so I can reach the ground easier.


One of the new Lowering Links


I learned something new. I've owned this bike for over 2 years and didn't know the gears were plainly displayed on the front sprocket cover.


Everything went along dreamily until he got to the plastic pop rivets on the fairing. The fairing has to be open to reach the forks.


"These *&^% plastic pop rivets are making me vewy angry!"


"Now open wide and say 'Ahhhhh'"
The bike with the fairing open.


The source of all the cussing ... I mean, fussing.


Then he raised the front forks by 7/8 inch by loosening the pinch bolts on the front yokes. This lowered the front to the same as the rear. It has to be precisely balanced or it can be a disastrous ride!


I played with Maxie for awhile. I'm surprised she braved the torrent of flying insects. This little dog HATES bugs with a purple passion but she will walk over hot coals to play with that tennis ball.

Well, now we go out to eat and try to cool off ...


"This crab is really fresh, isn't it?"
I hope y'all have a great weekend. We're going riding!
