First Vlog post

My First Truck!

Hi Y'all!
I am getting a truck! We are picking it up on Saturday! The Lord provided exactly what I needed and even gave me one that was more than I needed! Here are the pictures that I have right now! I will post more later!

The Little "Red" Hen with a Twist

Well I am still working on my article on the Republican VP candidate. In the meantime, enjoy this wonderful rendition of, The Little Red Hen. A true story of one who became "Red".

'Who will help me plant the wheat'? asked the Little Red Hen.
'Not I,' said the cow. 'Not I,' said the duck. 'Not I,' said the
pig. 'Not I,' said the goose. 'Then I will do it by myself,' said
the little red hen, and so she did.

The wheat grew very tall and ripened into golden grain. 'Who will help me reap my wheat?' asked the little red hen. 'Not I,' said the duck. 'Out of my classification,' said the pig. 'I'd lose my seniority,' said the cow. 'I'd lose my unemployment compensation,' said the goose. 'Then I will do it by myself,’ said the little red hen, and so she did.

At last it came time to bake the bread. 'Who will help me bake the bread?' asked the little red hen. 'That would be overtime for me,' said the cow. 'I'd lose my welfare benefits,' said the duck. 'I'm a dropout and never learned how,' said the pig. ‘If I’m to be the only helper, that's discrimination,' said the goose. 'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen. She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her neighbors to see.

They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share. But the little red hen said, 'No, I shall eat all five loaves.' 'Excess profits!' cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi) 'Capitalist leech!' screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer) 'I demand equal rights!' yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson) The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy) And they all painted 'Unfair!' picket signs and marched around and around the little red hen, shouting obscenities.

Then the farmer (Obama) came. He said to the little red hen, 'You must not be so greedy.' 'But I earned the bread,' said the little red hen. 'Exactly,' said Barack the farmer. 'That is what makes our free enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can earn as much as he wants. But under our modern government regulations, the productive workers must divide the fruits of their labor with those who are lazy and idle.' And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen, who smiled and clucked, 'I am grateful, for now I truly understand.' But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her. She never again baked bread because she joined the ‘party’ and got her bread free. And all the Democrats smiled. ‘Fairness’ had been established. Individual initiative had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one cared...so long as there was free bread that 'the rich' were paying for.

EPILOGUE Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs. Hillary got $8 million for hers. That's $20 million for the memories from two people, who for eight years, repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn’t remember anything. IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT?

Palin and such

To all,

I will be posting my thoughts on the current election and several other topics. I am quite busy catching up on some school work. Just wanted to let everyone know that I have not dropped off the face of the Earth, or was ignoring the current election!

Graduation

Hi Y'all!!!



I have some great news! I graduated with my first diploma from CLI!! Here is a video of the "ceremony". I am so excited to have completed the course. As for future plans, I am still taking classes at CLI and have a internship next year (this will complete a second diploma). I am also considering getting a B.A. from another online school.

Blessings,

Andrew

What is this?

Hi Y'all!

What is this? I took this screen shot today. Guess away!

Prayer Request

Hi Y'all,

I am requesting prayer from you. I am behind in some of my school work. Please pray that I will be able to catch up in the next week.

Also, on Saturday I had a meeting with an association of which I am a member and on the Board of Directors. It did not go well. All I will say is that I was called names and cursed at for about 45 minutes for forgetting to renew my membership and still serving the group. I am not sure what I am going to do right now. I would ask you to pray that I not become bitter.

Well, enough about me. What about you? Is there anything I can pray for?

Hi Y'all,

Here is another Mini Sermon! Got to run! I am finishing up some school stuff! God Bless.

I will continue to blog! But due to how busy I am with school and also having 2 all day meetings this week my next post may not come for a few days...LOL Thanks y'all for the encouragement! If you have not yet posted that you read please do!

Who is out there?

Who is reading my blog? I am trying to decided what to do. Attempt to post more or leave it alone for a while... Please comment?! even if you read by a feed.

In the last week

Well a little over a week has gone by since I last posted. I am still very busy with school. I covet your prayers for my college classes. The other thing I have been doing is working for a small chicken farmer who raises all natural chickens. I worked in the kill room on Saturday and helped de-bone in the afternoon. Then yesterday I helped finish the dog food that he makes (Joshua and Stephen started it on Monday), and did some metal work on the feed bins. It has been great working for him and getting to know his Christian homeschooling family! That is all for now!

Andrew

Hi Y'all,

Here is a mini sermon that I preached yesterday. I thought it might bless some of my readers. There was a difficultly with the speakers a few minutes in. Other than that it went great!




In Christ,
Andrew

Hi Y'all!

Many of you may be wondering what I have been up to since my last post. The answer is school. I have been quite busy with my studies. I have not had much to post about so I have not posted. If the Lord wills I will be preaching a short sermon tomorrow. I might post the audio of it on Monday. I am trying to decide what direction to take this blog. In other words, what I should post and how often. Please pray for me as I think. Also if you have a suggestion let me know!

This man could blow too of them! I cannot even do one for very long!

This is a copy of a "dead sea scroll". They hope to have an exhibit of copies some day... I would put in some pictures of my favorite it stop the scriptorium...But they did not allow any pictures :( They has some neat Greek and other copies of the bible from the past 2000 years!

Until later,

Last of the fossil pictures for now...

Hi Y'all!

This has been quite a week! Joshua, Stephen, and I had a great time shooting. Here are the last of the pictures from the Parker's CEV (Creation Education Vacation). Tomorrow I hope to post some pictures from our stop at the Holy Land Experience. At a later time I will (when we get the pictures developed, Yes we used a film camera for it!) post pictures of the canoe trip.

Dr. Parker reading to Timothy

Am I dirty enough?

One of the nights we had a plaster jacketing lab!

After our canoe trip we had an evening of identification!

Well that does it for the fossil hunting trip!

Until tomorrow,
Andrew

Hi Y'all!

What can I say but wow! I just got my driver's permit :D!!! Well Joshua, Stephen and I are going skeet shooting this evening! So I do not have much time to post. Here is one picture for the day. I hope to put up 2 more posts of pictures from the vacation.
