Now, that makes sense.
But, don't you have some homework to do?








(BTW, my wife was cleaning her desk are and she found a small stack of Noah's Thank You Notes that were never done. I am embarrased. One of them was yours...

So, I told him that he needed to buy you a box of cigars. He told me to go play on my laptop...)

Just read this, pretty funny. Too bad that Noah isn't more obedient, the cheapskate.

If we are to have capital punishment, I vote for Lincoln.

I say it's a matter of accountability. Both the criminal and the executioner are accountable to a Higher Being.

Not sure now if I can still make an argument for capital punishment by splitting hairs over the difference between murdering & killing - used to justify killing of murderers via the Ten Commandments... Now with dna testing exonerating some...
