The song “Fifty Years from Now” was fairly popular on Christian Radio when I was a kid. Apparently it was inspired by an off-hand comment overheard in a bow and arrow factory where I’ve done some construction work. We all have to be inspired by something. I am inspired by the fact that “year” and…

Be all you can be. U.S. Army Recruiting Slogan “Beans is all canned beans.” Slurred Joe. Joe had a drinking problem, but he preferred to call it a solution. It totally escaped him that not all beans were canned. In fact, some beans are picked freshly and eaten right out of the garden.  Joe knew…
