This Memorial Day seemed especially sad. We've lost so many in Special Forces under this president and in suspicious circumstances. Seventy-two percent of the military deaths in Afghanistan (72%) occurred under this president. Former SEALs lost in Benghazi under a shroud of lies. Extortion 17 killed 30 SEALs under flawed conditions aimed at destruction…

    I have fought the good fight. I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.   2 Timothy 4:7 (NIV)

                          The third book in the Porter Family Novels, A Love Like Ours by Becky Wade tells the story of two best friends separated at early ages who are reunited as adults involved in the same industry of Thoroughbred horse racing. The third and youngest Porter brother, Jake, damaged, scarred, and haunted by his final tour…

     The original film clip of the Michelangelo Antonioni movie Blow-Up starring Vanessa Redgrave and David Hemmings pictured above. It was a fascinating film full of symbolism and "deeper" meanings.

  Taking the short trip over to Novel Rocket today. Have you ever felt like you did everything right only to have it turn out "wrong"? See you over there.   Father, grateful for it all. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

    One of many great clips from the classic American Graffiti. There were a lot of soon-to-be-stars in this film. This is one old movie I can watch again. The first time I saw it I went alone to a matinee. It's weird to laugh by yourself in a theater. This was a very well done coming…
