Cashmere, you killed me ded in fbook. I'm so psyched you're out canvassing.
Thanks, Sox. I've been more excited this election than I have in a looooong time. So that helps. And the fact that I feel confident enough now to talk to strangers. It takes an awful lot for me to go out knocking on doors, I tell you!
I think I hit a skunk with my minivan on the way back from the grocery store. I had to park the van outside because I could smell it from inside the house!
I'm sorry for your loss, Aimee.
{{{Aimee}}} I'm so sorry.
I slept in waaay late and then went to the library and browsed through a fun book about horse racing in America where I discovered the interesting fact that the man who bred Domino was named Barak. I wonder if it was a family name - like Almanzo Wilder's . .. what is the likelihood that he was Islamic?
It's also a biblical name. He was a general in the book of Judges, fighting against Sisera. (It means "lightning" in Hebrew. Same-sounding word means "blessed" in Arabic.)

Aimee - we're so sorry for your loss.
{{{{{Aimee & Dad}}}} peace~ to you both, with my condolences.

Palin's Movement Urges 'Godly' To 'Plunder' Wealth of The 'Godless'
Sarah Palin endorser Bishop Thomas Muthee, in a speech he gave before blessing and anointing Sarah Palin as a political leader, on October 16, 2005 at the Wasilla Assembly of God, laid out the current agenda of the New Apostolic Reformation - how "God's kingdom" needed to "infiltrate" seven sectors of society. Muthee listed most of them: business and finance, schools and education, media and entertainment, politics and government.
Muthee also stated "The Bible says the wealth of the wicked is stored up for the righteous. Sarah Palin was in the audience. Minutes later, she was anointed, and blessed, with the laying on of hands.
Thomas Muthee is an internationally known celebrity in the New Apostolic Reformation and a personal friend of the movement's head, C. Peter Wagner. In June 2006 Wagner proclaimed that "God has declared through His prophets that the wealth of the wicked will be released to the Kingdom of God," and declared, threateningly, "the enemies' camp will be plundered."
This religious movement that Palin is a part of is mega-scary, and has gotten practically no mainstream media attention.
Oh my - this group is also connected to the weird "Anointing the Bull" ritual prayer thing at Wall St. the other day.
