I don't know if very many of you know who GK Chesterton is, but please read these quotes. They are very true and/or very funny. Fallacies do not cease to be fallacies because they become fashions."My country, right or wrong," is a thing that no patriot would think of saying except in a desperate case. It is like saying, "My mother, drunk or sober." A good novel tells us the truth about its hero;

My friend Ashley posed this question in her blog: Truly, what is the facination with girls who have these retarded pics of themselves half-naked or attempting to be sexy. I personally think they are making asses of themselves. You do not look sexy, my dear. You look silly. Sexy is confidence. Sexy is chastity. Sexy is self-respect. Sexy is knowing that you are worth someone who will

I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me. 4. I'll

Okay, My friend Justine just did this, and did a phenomenal job of it, too. I couldn't believe it, but wow, that was awesome. Now I'm obligated to do this myself..so in response to what she said: 1. Your cousin is Brian Martin, whom I know! Yes indeed! That's awesome! I didn't know that you knew him. 2. The Fhwqugtsn Everybody to the Limit song... Strong Bad Rules! 3. Pages: The

Thursday: I went to the Chris Tomlin / Matt Redman concert. Beth, Scott and I had our picture taken by someone before the show, and during the concert, they showed a ton of pictures they had taken, and ours appeared. It was awesome! What a great picture, too. It's too bad they delete the pictures after the show. Friday: Went to Subway with Courtney and Mary. They were playing country music

Here are the lyrics, so far, of a song by Mark Schultz that he performs live, but hasn't yet finished writing. It's supposed to be on his next album. I can't wait to hear the final version of it.

Walking Her Home
Mark Schultz

Lookin back
he sees it all
it was her first date the night he came to call
her dad said "Son, have her home by nine.
Promise me you'll never leave her side."

(they go out on a date)

He was walking her home
Holding her hand.
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah (etc)
He remembered where he was the night he fell in love
He was walking her home
He was walking her home

(years pass, because he's hitting the highlights)

Nursing home
At 92
it was their first night alone in separate rooms
at three am, shook by a storm
and when he awoke, she stood outside his door.
Nurse came down, she'd heard it all
She looked in the room, then down the hall

He was walking her home
to room 103
He needed to be with her so that she could fall asleep
Just for a while
They were 18
She was still more beautiful to him than anything
He was walking her home
He was walking her home
