I have the day off today and a list a mile long of things that I want to get done.
Recently I have been really getting more and more things accomplished and I am ashamed to admit that it is because of my phone! I bought a Palm Centro a month ago when I switched to Sprint for a carrier and I LOVE this phone. This phone does everything but my taxes and I think it could probably do that too!
I try and use as many of the features as possible, so… every few minutes my calender/planner is telling me to do some thing or another. I also check my email, update my status or upload pics to facebook, browse the web, use the GPS & Googlemaps to get places with ease and on and on and on…
I’m not dissing my RAZR, but… that was a phone, this thing is a little computer in the palm of my hand that I can take everywhere! Did I tell you how much I love this thing?
Talking about electronic gadgets… I see hype from time to time for the Kindle, Amazon’s ebook reader. Man, do I WANT one! I can’t even read the articles in fear that I will just impulse but the heck out of it and BUY one NOW! I’m trying to wait for the next version, the Kindle 2. I’m not buying one until then… please Amazon, hold off for a few more weeks, LOL!
Speaking of books, I am reading “Fortress of Eagles” by C.J. Cherryh. This is the fourth book I’ve read by Cherryh and the third in this series although I am for some reason reading these way out of order. I’d read “Fortress in the Eye of Time” about a year ago, that was the first one in the series, then I ended up reading the most recent one in the series, which skipped me over 3 or more books, and now I’m back to reading in order… I think.
Either way, Cherryh has received praise for this series, which I won’t discount, because I like the books too, but this book in particular she is really ranting on her dislike of the established Catholic Church.
Don’t get me wrong. I am not enamored with the Catholic Church either, I think they’ve gotten a long ways off the narrow road. I don’t however think I would spend quite so much time extolling their vices when to me it is apparent that although Cherryh is right in her views of Catholicism and its inadequacy, she also doesn’t have the Truth either. To make a very base analogy, I find it annoying when I’m reading, because its somewhat like the prostitute complaining about the rapist.
But, before I get way off track there, I wanted to share with you some interesting reading I received in the mail a few days ago. Its about Barack Obama. This is what it said:
These are the facts about Barack Obama’s citizenship:
- The Constitution requires the president to be a natural born citizen.
- Obama’s grandmother said she was there when Barack was born in Kenya.
- Obama refuses to release his original birth certificate.
- Instead of a birth certificate, Obama’s campaign posted a certfication given to those born abroad.
- Experts have called even that document an “obvious forgery”.
- Obama attended school in Indonesia as Barry Soetoro, when only Indonesian citizens were permitted to attend.
- Obama’s school records list his father as Lolo Soetoro and Obama’s citizenship as Indonesian.
- Obama traveled to Pakistan in 1981 when it was illegal to enter as a U.S. citizen.
- Sixteen lawsuits in 12 states and two cases before the Supreme Court now challenge Obama’s citizenship.
and then the mailing gave me this address… www.obamaforgery.com which I have not visited.
I’d heard something of this before, but had put it off as the losing side whining and stirring up dissent for the new president elect, but, this mailing was from Janet (Folger) Porter, whom I respect very highly and trust. I own some of her books, and even have had one of them signed and 99% of the time I think she is right on with her push for truth and her struggle to keep America as I prefer it. Anyways, if this or this type of issue interests you, stop at www.f2a.org.
OK, I’m heading over to get a health club membership, then since while I was posting this I actually accepted some overtime today and now I have to work, I have to speed up my errands today. Too bad I woke up early(because of my phone) and already have a few things on my list done…see what I mean about this phone?!?
