FYI




This is a five year history, of murders in Memphis:

153 in 2005 = 12.75 per month
118 in 2004 = 9.83 per month
138 in 2003 = 11.5 per month
162 in 2002 = 13.5 per month
156 in 2001 = 13 per month
159 in 2000 = 13.25 per month

There are 59 as I post this in 2006 which = 14.75 per month.

At this rate we will have 177 murders in 2006, let's pray that we don't.

    DIRECTIONS TO OUR
    FATHER'S HOUSE


    Make a Right onto Believeth Blvd.

    Keep straight and go through the Green Light, which is Jesus Christ

    There, you must turn onto the Bridge of Faith, which is over troubled water.
    When you get off the bridge, make a Right turn and keep straight.
    You are on the King's Highway - Heaven-bound


    Keep going for three miles: One for the Father, One for the Son, and One for the Holy Ghost.
    Then exit off onto Grace Blvd. From there, make a Right turn on Gospel Lane.

    Keep Straight and the make another Right on Prayer Road.

    As you go on your way, Yield Not to the traffic on Temptation Ave.

    Avoid SIN STREET because it is a DEAD END. Pass up Envy Drive and Hate Avenue.

    Also, pass up Hypocrisy Street, Gossiping Lane, and Backbiting Blvd.

    However, do go down Long-suffering Lane, Persecution Blvd, and Trials and Tribulations Avenue.

    But that's alright, because VICTORY STREET is straight ahead!!!

  2. Blinders Off,

    That is beautiful. It is timely also. It corelates with this weeks Sunday School lesson. I've gotten two ideas, from you this week. I hope you don't mind me using them.

    Seems like when we're ahead of the year before.The criminals see the numbers, and go out and catch up with last years.
