it was long ago, and far away and i was on assignment.

my darling wife was on duty, and she got the off-spring to the local hospital.

the surgeon said appendicitis has to be taken seriously. very seriously, no time for discussion.

not to meander too far from the main center of the road, anyone who places god into an image is heretical?

that is, who knows what god looks like? YHWH, or any other for that matter. to hang up a pic. of god is heresy?
