Friday 13th is traditionally a very unlucky day.
It doesn't seem to get much attention these days. In fact, it now appears to be the name of a shopping day when things are discounted. Work that one out!
I haven't touched my violin yet this morning. Present me is wondering if changing my chinrest was a wise move. Well, I guess I'll find out soon enough!
I think I need a coffee.
Ah well, what's one more trip to the bathroom? I'll be back shortly.
Back.
There's nothing nicer than coffee,
When you're up but the sky's not blue.
It's good to sip the nice warm juice, but
Then it sends you to the loo.
It's a wet morning in the Nui. I bet it has been raining in Moera and Raccoontown too.
I decided to only drink half of my coffee.
For the ways of the Lord are straight and virtuous men walk in them; but sinners stumble and drink all their coffee. Hosea 14:10 & 14.11In his latest post Rob tells us, "The more astute of you have noticed no quotation marks. The practice of using quotation marks for anything in the Bible has fullen out of fashion. Also it's likely that the writers of the Gospels didn't quote Jesus exactly. How could they? Mark, who wrote the first Gospel, did so early in the fifties. That's twenty years after Christ died and rose again. So it goes."
This is actually good news. Mark was obviously writing from memory, or what someone had told him. Imagine if he had 'fullen' into the trap of using some of the strange words that Rob uses. It wouldn't make Jesus look that smart. Better if the actual author takes the blame.
Hey, Good Friday is on April 3rd. That's a more positive name than Black Friday. Good Friday, if you're anywhere near a Catholic church, is a day when you should avoid expressions like, "Nailed it!"
It's probably time to give that chinrest a run.

| No! That's not the one! |
Ah well, I'll leave you there for this morning.
Enjoy your Black Friday.
Ciao tutti.
AFTERNOON, after 3pm.
All back to where I started from. After 1 hour, 20 minutes of try out time. Right back to where I started.
Ah well, we live and we learn.

I'm filling in time while I eat brunch.
God made the universe.
At the beginning there was only GOD (made up of two people and a bird). God has been around forever. If it wasn't for the fact that he (them) was perfect, in every way, I'd suggest that he was bored. Anyway, he (they) decided to make man. For the act of reproduction women were required too. Everything around God was perfect. For some reason, he decided to give humans free will. This meant that God had to create evil. Free will came at quite a cost for humans.
Free will meant that some humans would scuff up and would need to be punished, but how would that punishment be carried out? God decided to create an angel named Lucifer. God, who knows the future, knew that Lucifer, unless given special guidance, would scuff up big time. Lucifer gave God someone to blame, someone to 'bounce off'. God invented the word 'devil'. As they say, "If the hat fits, wear it."
The rest is his story.
Next time eat something that requires two hands.
No. Va a fatti fottere.
Lutherans are into predestination. I don't think knowing the future makes you responsible for future events or else the poor weatherman would have a lot to answer for.
It does if you set up an environment for evil when it didn't exist beforehand and you knew how things would work out. The weatherman doesn't possess the same skills as God.
That’s a very good comeback Richard.
I guess that the poor old weatherman, or woman or person doesn’t get paid as much as old god does.
I think that allowing for the possibility of not being good is a loving act. What is evil? Is it the opposite of good or just the absence of good?
I just worry about those underpaid weatherpeople.
No wonder it rains when the forecast says otherwise.
