Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 5:16 King James Bible

Invocation

May 11th, 2010

Kathy Hummel, a member of Cuyahoga Falls City Council, read the following Chinese proverb during last night’s council meeting:

If there is light in the soul,
there will be beauty in the person.
If there is beauty in the person,
there will be harmony in the house.
If there is harmony in the house,
there will be order in the nation.
If there is order in the nation,
there will be peace in the world.

Then she added, “Let us all pray for that peace.”

Amen.

Funny sign

April 30th, 2010

Saw this sign last night on my way home from work. It was out in front of a bar/restaurant on the edge of Kent, Ohio. It appears they used up all their B’s spelling out BBQ RIBS on both sides and had to use upside-down P’s, except the P on this side is right side-up.

Regis the Runaway Dog

April 13th, 2010

The front of the April 11 issue of the Falls News-Press included my story on a dog that ran away from his family and was on the road for 10 days before his family came home from vacation and they were reunited. Regis’s owner, Teri Gibson of Tallmadge (pictured here with her son, Sonny), said she believes her dog was hit with separation anxiety when her mother-in-law-to-be took him home with her to take care of while his family were at Disney World. Here is the link to my story.

Hulk’s name is Bob?

February 9th, 2010

I always thought that Dr. Bruce Banner turned into the Incredible Hulk in the comics. I knew it because I read it. Over and over, that was his secret identity, known only to Rick Jones. On TV he was known as David Banner, but he remained Bruce in the comics.

So now I see in a reprinting of Fantastic Four #25 in Fantastic Four King-Size Special #4, which I purchased from Jeff Harper’s commic book convention in Akron Sunday, that the Hulk’s alter ego is really BOB Banner. Above is as scan of the top strip of Page 5 of FF 25. I never saw this before. Did you?
