When the anthem was finished, I asked my partner to cover the starting line-ups while I took care of something, removed my headset and made a beeline for this kid. Apparently, his dad had seen him from across the gym and luckily beat me there. He took the kid's cell phone and put it in his pocket. My partner knew exactly where I was going because he had seen the kid too and gave the play-by-play on air of my march over and the aftermath.<br /><br />We received a lot of positive feedback from the incident, and I still hear about it from some people 10 years later. I think a majority of people are upset by the removing of God from public display and a disrespectful demeanor toward our country...they just feel powerless to stop it. We shouldn't be afraid to speak our minds on either subjects and let others kow how we feel. Strength in numbers!<br /><br />Your pictures from the graduations on Facebook were excellent. We live in estrogen laden families my friend...and I don't even have a male pet!Tony Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05525644107594362899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257114463060999037.post-47811312423474798302009-06-09T23:11:39.377-04:002009-06-09T23:11:39.377-04:00David:

I know I do. <br /><br /> Thanks to the ACLU actions we may not have Under God mentioned at all in the pledge very soon. I highlighted on my blog about the ACLU actions at a high school graduation in my home town.

One daughter graduating pre-school and one graduating high school.<br /> One entering Kindergarten and one probably entering college, and entering the world, so to speak.<br /> And so much that happens in between those years.<br /> You are truly a blessed man David, as I am sure you know. Wonderful wife and daughters and even an extra blessing for now in JA.<br /> No matter what nonsense 'the world' does, no one and nothing can take away from us those who the Lord has blessed us with. And the memories, all of them good and sometimes not so good.<br /> It makes me think a little differently of the verse that says 'nothing can separate us from the love of God'. That love of God is often expressed in the gift of our loved ones. So nothing can separate us from anyone or anything that brings God's love into our lives. In the end it's all about love.eaglegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16796480659339896271noreply@blogger.com
