Proof of God's Existence
Certain scientists and non-religious people don't believe in God but I have proof of his existence. In 2002 or 2003, my late mother had terrible arthritis in her legs. If she had to bend down, the pain was unbearable when she got back up.
Mom was watching a faith healer on TV. The faith healer asked his viewers with afflictions to get down on their knees and pray to be cured. Mom got down on her knees and prayed and God cured her arthritis.
This proves that God exists. Arthritis is a serious medical condition. You can't just wish it away. When Mom's arthritis was cured,...

Agnes's Grave
My Chihuahua dog died in July. Her name was Agnes and this is a picture of her grave. You may be wondering why I put a door and cinder block on top of her grave. I'm not an expert at digging holes. I put the cinder block and door on top of her grave because I was afraid that a bigger dog might come along and dig her up. My next door neighbor was kind enough to loan me a shovel so that I could dig her grave.
I was originally going to hire a Taxidermist to mount Agnes when she died because I wanted to have her forever. But doing that might not have given Agnes the respect she...

Women For Trump
Certain women are going to vote for Donald Trump and this picture proves it. If no women were going to vote for Trump, they wouldn't be making and selling these stickers. A woman bus driver told me that she voted early and she voted for Trump.
Tomorrow I'm going to vote early and I'm going to vote for Trump. I commend each and every woman who plans to vote for Trump. I also commend the men who vote for Trump.
Some people may intimidate people who are going to vote for Trump and that's wrong. Certain people have been persecuting Billy Graham's daughter because she...

Saint Agnes
Saint Agnes is what my mom should be called.
When she died, I was both saddened and appalled.
I admire women homemakers more than women who work because Mom was a homemaker.
I was devastated on March the 6th of 2013 because my poor mother needed an undertaker.
Mom wasn't actually a saint but she was as close as a person could get.
You would've been very happy and fortunate if you and Mom had met.
She was a wonderful mother and that's something I'm proud to confess.
She was one in a million and she should be called Saint Agnes.

PXL 2000 Camcorder
I received a PXL 2000 Camcorder 32 years ago today. It was an early Christmas gift that I got on October 16, 1988. One thing that was awesome was that it only cost $100. But it was in black and white. That sucked.
Even though it was a video recorder, it used audio cassette tapes. But it only worked with High Bias tapes. A free cassette was included with the camcorder but I had to buy other High Bias tapes.
Because the cassette wheels span much faster than a regular tape recorder, you could only record five minutes on each side of a 90 minute cassette. A 60 minute...

My Baby Doll - Part II
When you died, it brought about sadness, pain and tears.
You died three months ago today, that's a fourth of a year.
You died ninety-two days ago.
Your death was a devastating blow.
You have been dead for a little over thirteen weeks.
You had brown fur and you were special and unique.
On July the 11th, my heart was broken because you passed away.
You were my baby doll and your Daddy will love you for the rest of his days.

Trump Has Covid-19
For those who don't know, Donald Trump has Covid-19. I heard that millions have prayed for him. When I prayed, I didn't ask God to heal President Trump. I begged God to heal him.
Certain people hate Trump but he does not deserve to have Covid-19. Nobody does. I'm asking everybody who reads this to pray for Trump. If you already have been praying, I thank you for it.
I'm not a Joe Biden supporter, but I sure hope that he doesn't get Covid-19. Let's hope and pray that President Trump gets well.

55th Wedding Anniversary
Today would've been Mom and Dad's 55th anniversary if they had lived. They were married on September 25, 1965. Dad was seventeen (almost eighteen) at the time. Mom was also only seventeen.
They were both so young that they both needed a parent's permission. Mom's older sister thought she could sign for Mom to get married, but she learned that only a parent or guardian could do it.
Papaw Greene (Mom's Dad) was having his supper when he was asked to sign. Papaw Greene said "Let me finish eating my hot dog and I'll sign".
My brother and his wife (Rick and Vernie)...

Why I Hate Guns
This article is about my hatred of guns. When I was a teenager, I thought it would be cool to own a gun, but I changed my mind. Don't get me wrong. I'm not one of these people who wants to disarm America. I have no problem with people owning a gun or guns. But only if they are responsible. If you are an irresponsible gun owner, you should have your gun or guns taken away immediately.
A couple of gun owners turned me against guns. One of these things happened here in Tennessee close to thirty years ago. On a cold winter night, a nine year old girl was chilly. She decided to get an...

Gospel Music
Gospel Music is fantastic music because it praises God.
When it comes to Gospel Music, it's something to applaud.
Anything is good if it praises the Lord.
When it comes to God, he should be adored.
Gospel Music is incredible music and that's a fact.
It's awesome and that's a statement I won't retract.

My Big Buddy
It was very sad when your life came to an end.
You weren't just a cat, you were also my friend.
You became my cat after you were born in 2002.
You were good to me and I was good to you.
You were black, white and gray.
I miss you because you passed away.
You made me feel better whenever I got upset.
You were my big buddy and you were a great pet.
You were very pretty and friendly too.
It was a privilege to have owned you.
(Note: This is not a picture of my cat. It's a picture of a cat that looks very similar.)

Fifty
My cousin would've turned fifty today if he hadn't died in 2019. His name was John Brown and he was born on September 9, 1970. He would've been on this earth for half a century if he hadn't died. He died because he used drugs.
John started out smoking pot and later did worse drugs like Meth. All John cared about was getting high and chasing women. He had the habit of finding the wrong kind of women and doing drugs. If he had said no to drugs, he'd be alive today.
When John came to my house a few years ago, I knew that he had been doing Meth. I said to him "You've been...
