    Drudge has a satanic “one-eye symbolism” photo of Eminem today. It’s like a day doesn’t go by when we don’t get a new one-eye symbolism pic of a celebrity. They are a cult.

    They aren’t hiding it. The people are hiding themselves from it, and refusing to see it.

    “It’s just a photo of someone covering one eye. It doesn’t mean anything at all, whatsoever.”

    Not even when every single celeb has to take a staged publicity photo like this to signal that they are in the club? Oft-repeated symbolism means nothing, right?

    Every Thanksgiving, I see the WKRP clip, and I have the same question, nagging at me.

    Is “As God as my witness, ” correct English? It always sounded wrong to me.

    As God IS my witness? WITH God as my witness? CONSIDERING THAT God is my witness?

    Much as I love that clip, I don’t think that phrase is rendered properly. “As God as…” huh?

    Anyone wanna diagram that sentence so it makes sense?

      I’ve visited there, it’s a beautiful place. It’s very near my DH’s birthplace. Anytime you take the main train through the region, there it is! Such a wonderful sight.

    lilbirdee12’s prayer:

    Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.

    Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.

    Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.

    Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
    Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.

    We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
    Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.

    And, Lord, we pray for all the people who have been affected by the earthquakes and hurricanes.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
