The Blog-Health-o-Meter™ reads Wow.
Crunchy numbers
A Boeing 747-400 passenger jet can hold 416 passengers. This blog was viewed about 3,000 times in 2010. That’s about 7 full 747s.
In 2010, there were 261 new posts, growing the total archive of this blog to 530 posts. There were 146 pictures uploaded, taking up a total of 32mb. That’s about 3 pictures per week.
The busiest day of the year was January 7th with 199 views. The most popular post that day was Minus WHAT?.
And they made more comments of course. Wish they could have picked a more flattering photo! Haha!
Still, overall, I am pleased!
So yes, thanks for coming to view this site!

2009 AD
05/01/2009
2009. That’s the year that school children write when they go to class this week. Actually, it can be written as 2009 AD. What is this AD?
Here’s what WikiAnswers has to say about AD and BC
It is commonly thought that BC stands for “before Christ” and AD stands for “after death.” This is only half correct. How could 1 B.C. have been “before Christ” and 1 A.D. been “after death”? BC does stand for “before Christ.” AD actually stands for the Latin phrase “anno domini” which means “in the year of our Lord.” The B.C. / A.D. dating system is not taught in the Bible. It actually was not fully implemented and accepted until several centuries after Jesus’ death.
It is interesting to note that the purpose of the BC / AD dating system was to make the birth of Jesus Christ the dividing point of world history. However, when the B.C. / A.D. system was being calculated, they actually made a mistake in pinpointing the year of Jesus’ birth. Scholars later discovered that Jesus was actually born in around 4 BC, not 0 AD. That is not the crucial issue. The birth, life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Christ are the “turning points” in world history. It is fitting, therefore, that Jesus Christ be the separation of “old” and “new.” BC was “before Christ” and since His birth, we have been living “in the year of our Lord.”
So it is now 2009 in the year of our Lord.
May the rest of the year be truly the year of the Lord.
Is It An Ending?
03/01/2009Or is it a Beginning?
We will always face all sorts of difficult situations in life. Some can be major crises. Others are little hiccups. But what we do with them as important as the situation itself. Most important is how we face them…..
You can’t change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying over the future.
If you fill your heart with regrts of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for.
“I’ll Teach You to Steal, Drink, Lie Swear,” says Pastor
10/10/2008
I shall never forget my pastor taking me aside just after I had been converted and saying, “I am going to teach you to steal, to drink, to lie, and to swear.” 
Sensing my astonishment, he quickly went on to add, “I want to teach you how to steal time out of every day to read something the book of Proverbs. And then I want to teach you how to drink from its clear, refreshing water, to lie on your bed at night and meditate on its great themes and to swear that by the grace of God you will put into practice its wonderful teaching.”
The above was attributed to Selwyn Hughes.
By the way, folks, I have added a chatbox on my left bar. Feel free to post there too. Blessings!
