Church signs revisited

A couple of weeks ago I drove to my dentist in The City and I saw a sign on a church that said:

If your Bible is in good shape, chances are you're not.

Yesterday while driving the same route for the same purpose, I saw a sign on a church a little further down the road that said:

If your Bible is worn out, chances are, you're in good shape. ;)

(And yes, the winky smiley was there too!)

How true this is! Well, unless your very worn bible has dust on it. I have many I've completely worn out that were leather bound. Some of my paperback bibles have held up nicely. (I don't feel bad taping them back together, lol.)

The Bennets

Taking a cue from Zelie I've decided to rename my kids after the five daughters in one of my favorite literary works "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen. Henceforth my five daughters shall be known as Jane, Elizabeth "Lizzy", Mary, Catherine "Kitty", and Lydia. It will be a bit confusing for me at first, as our Elisabeth will not be Elizabeth. ;o) But it will be fun. I've always had a hard time giving my youngest three clever names, and now this will solve the problem. I will change their names in the side bar later.
