Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Oh the Pure Unadulerated Joy

.
Recently when our cable TV provider DROPPED CBS, we switched back to Dish so I wouldn't miss any more IMPORTANT football games.

Well - - - - we have found an unexpected "blessing" on Dish.

The World Fishing Network.

Fishing shows.

24/7

In HD even.

Hubby is ecstatic.

Can you imagine the endless boredom???

I can't find my blog said...: Thank God we live almost a whole country apart. We'd never get our husbands (and my boys!) off of the couch.

Although, you and I could be blogging, chatting, and laughing at them, so maybe it's not such a bad idea to be closer, hmmm? :-); October 26, 2008 at 11:25 PM
Keetha Broyles said...: I think we could have a lot of fun if we lived in the same zip code!!!

:-)

Hubby does leave the couch occasionally - - - to go do the fishing himself. I'm sure he'd be more than happy to haul your hubby along.; October 27, 2008 at 4:10 AM
Indian Lake Papa said...: Jesus is always looking for good fishermen - must be a worthy profession! LOL How about those Spartans - yet there is next week!; October 27, 2008 at 7:40 AM
Julie said...: Wow, that sounds like endless hours of excitement! :); October 27, 2008 at 8:14 AM
Char said...: Fishing, football, pick your poison.; October 27, 2008 at 9:07 AM
Keetha said...: The World Fishing Network. You're joking, right?

Of course, I thought the same thing about the Golf Channel.; October 27, 2008 at 11:50 AM
Keetha Broyles said...: I totally kid you not, Keetha.

World Fishing Network - - - chock full o' fishing "experts" casting their little artificial lures into the pond all the while "teaching" you how to do the same.

Seriously; October 27, 2008 at 4:13 PM
