2011 - CHRISTMAS EVE - LETTER TO SANTA CLAUS
|
Dear Santa,
I have been a good boy this year. A really good boy. Even my Mommy says
so, so it must be true. If you don’t believe me, ask her. She’ll tell
you. I want a bicycle and a sled and a Game Boy and a LEGO Ninjago
Spinjitzu Dojo and a NERF Vortex Nitron and a basketball and a football
and a catchers mitt and ball and bat... Mommy tells me she can’t find a
catchers mitt for me because I’m left handed. I don’t know what that
means but I bet you do. You can make one for me, can’t you? And did I
say I want a sled? I want the round kind that slides around in circles.
My friend Tommy has one. I like sliding in circles. My Mommy says I... Read More. More Community. |

Three Messages from us Old Folks
Edited by Bob Robinson
Think twice before messing with an oldster - An old prospector shuffled
into the town of El Indio, Texas leading a tired old mule. The old man
headed straight for the only saloon in town to clear his parched
throat. He walked up to the saloon and tied his old mule to the hitch
rail. As he stood there, brushing some of the dust from his face and
clothes, a young gunslinger stepped out of... Read More. More Blogs. |

CNO CHRISTMAS... HERO OF THE PEOPLE

The Learning Channel...
‘The True Story of Santa Claus’

visits brought joy to all the children of the world, Santa Claus was a
child himself. He was once just an ordinary baby boy named Nicholas.
The baby boy was just like any other, but his parents hoped for great
things from their only... Read More. More Community.

2012: An Upheaval of Monumental Proportions
by Armstrong Williams
It’s that time of year. Time to take stock of 2011, and prepare to ring
in a much-welcomed 2012. For millions of Americans, the New Year can’t
come soon enough, leaving behind a miserable era of leadership: by this
Congress, this president, our college sports coaches, some doctors
(see: M. Jackson), financial leaders -- the list seems endless... Read More. More Blogs. |
