Saturday Coffee Break & Prayer Revival
Good morning Morons. Where
Need some help and/or advice with coffee roasts? Here ya go.
AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo atsign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update. Prayer Requests: 8/19 – Coelacanth asks for continued prayers. There are problems with his son Cam. Cam has been concealing many things for many years and has been lying to his family. His mother is heartbroken.
8/24 Update – Cam is still suffering with his significant health issues, and his mental state is unstable. He is making decisions based on feelings, and guided by bad advice, will not consider his parents’ cautions.
9/9 Update – Coelacanth and his wife have had the “adult” conversation with Cam, since he had been misusing the money they’d sent. They did pay off his student loans, per their original promise, and Cam called to thank them. He still has a lot of medical problems, and so much has been taken away in the last 6 months – he went from an Olympic class athlete to needing a cane to keep his balance. Prayers are still needed. 9/23 - Tecumseh Team sends many thanks for the prayers for her and her husband. They are making slow but forward progress, and the Lord is answering their prayers. 8/26 – Jewells45 posted that she could use prayers. Her last round of chemo was tough on her.
9/9 Update – The CT scan found another spot on her upper left lung that is about 6 mm. The rest of the nodes showed no change, and a few very small ones in both lower lungs. The doctor was concerned enough to order a PET scan, which was then scheduled for 11/29!
9/15 Update – It’s been another bad week after chemo treatment. 8/26 – Dash my Lace Wings asked for continued prayers. Her husband is still sober but needs to develop some interests to keep his mind and body busy – something that will give him joy and purpose in life.
9/23 – Thanks are sent to all for the prayers. They are doing well. 8/30 – Debby Doberman Schultz asked for prayers. Her husband passed away on 8/30, with her sitting beside him, holding his hand. The kids had been in and out, but the end it was like the beginning - just the two of them. As painful as it was, she wouldn’t have it any other way. She is so gratified that he is relieved of his suffering. 9/2 – Oddbob’s granddaughter was released from the hospital. Since then, she has had only one seizure so it seems like the meds and keto diet are working. The docs say she might grow out of it in a few years but of course can’t promise anything. If not, she and her parents are in for a lifelong process of monitoring, controlling, and coping. He thanks everyone for their prayers and concern. 9/2 – Skip shared his concerns about his aunt and uncle, who are moving to a retirement community soon. His uncle is not doing well, mentally or physically. Skip hopes for more peace for them. 9/8 – Inogame requested prayers for his wife and their next daughter, due in March. Please help pray for health. His wife is struggling with morning sickness, but otherwise both are healthy. He also sends thanks for the Horde’s prayers of support, both now and when they had miscarriages in the past. 9/9 – Jewells asked for prayers for her brother-in-law and his wife. The brother-in-law has been diagnosed with dementia. He is diabetic and cannot give himself his injections, and he refuses to let his wife help him. He also refuses to stay home, even getting into the car with strangers to get away. Please pray for strength and wisdom for her, and for him to accept the changes that have to happen.
9/23 Update – The situation is getting worse. Her brother-in-law just wanders off when he knows his wife is not looking. He also has a “friend” who helped him withdraw all the money from the couple’s joint account, and put it into an account in just the BIL’s name. Now the wife cannot pay the bills or the mortgage. The BIL fell again, and his wife is at her wits end. 9/9 – NaughtyPine asked for prayers for one of her brothers. He’d been in the hospital for a week after a breakdown. This is the strong brother, the one who takes care of everyone else and never asks for anything.
9/23 Update – Her brother finished the program this week and will have a follow-up next week. He is going to spend time with their Dad, which will be good for them both. 9/9 – San Franpsycho sent some updates: Paul, who we have been praying for as he deals with cancer, was admitted to the hospital last week for an ulcer. The NG tube was removed, and he will be able to eat soon. The other update is that Mrs. F. is feeling better in the ER, after 2 fluid IVs.
9/23 Update – There is no good news on Paul to report. Mrs. F is back to 100%. 9/9 – RedMindBlueState requested prayers. His brother-in-law’s mother was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and is not doing well. Prayers also for the family at this difficult time. 9/14 – creeper asked for prayers for a man who has destroyed his back after years of hard physical labor. He can’t have any more back surgery, so he is having an electronic nerve stimulator put in. Prayers that it would work would be appreciated.
9/16 Update – creeper sends thanks to all who prayed. The temporary stimulator was implanted and it does seem to help. If all goes well, they will install the permanent one.
9/23 Update – creeper says thank you for your prayers. They took the temporary nerve stimulator out of his back, and it’s up to him if he wants a permanent one. But it was the first noticeable pain relief in three years. It may have been medical science helping, but creeper thinks it was the Horde’s prayers. 9/14 – FenelonSpoke requested prayers for Jessie, their church organist. She hasn’t been able to play at church for a while, but she is back in the hospital. Prayers are appreciated! 9/16 – Rhennigantx asked for prayers as he experiences Afib. He is now facing drugs or maybe the ablation treatment. 9/16 – LMD asked for prayers for a sister who is in the final throes of hospice. Please pray that she will pass on so that her suffering will stop. Prayers are much appreciated. 9/22 – DaveT sent an update. He is a retired gentleman, and we had prayed for him in May, as he was going through some legal battles to save his home, for himself and his cats. The legal (and home repair) battles continue, and additional contributions would be very much appreciated. Please email Annie’s Stew directly if you would like to contribute, and she will send you the link to his GiveSendGo account. 9/23 – Jim (in kalifornia) provided an update on his relatives. His father-in-law is better after having a vascular catheter put in and emergency dialysis. His mother-in-law suffered through helping him, and also ended up with a new tumor. She also missed about 5 treatments, so all her other tumor markers are way up. 9/23 – Polliwog the Ette requested prayers for her mother-in-law, Peggy, who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. It seems to be contained, but fast-growing, and hopefully a lumpectomy will be sufficient. She is understandably nervous about the whole thing and would appreciate prayers. 9/24 – Eromero was having dinner with a 95 year-old buddy at the senior living facility, and had to bring his friend to the ER with pneumonia symptoms. For submission guidelines and other relevant info, please contact Annie's Stew, who is managing the prayer list. You can contact her at apaslo at-sign hotmail dot com. If you see a prayer request posted in a thread comment, feel free to copy and paste it and e-mail it to Annie's Stew. She tries to keep up with the requests in the threads, but she's not here all of the time, so she may not see it unless you e-mail it to her. Please note: Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks or so unless we receive an update. Romans 8:26-27
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
Thank you Annie for your efforts.
Before we get going just a few gentle reminders.......(Rulz) 1) Open thread. Opine and/or bloviate or lurk or wear white after Labor Day. We get it.
2) Be nice to one another a few of you better leave the the 'ettes hair alone.
3) Walking fast, running or being careless with sharp objects is frowned upon.
4) Have a great weekend.

It claimed to be "seriously past due", complete with a threatening letter addressed to "Discharged Resident", claiming repeated attempts were made to contact, and lack of response leads them to believe he did not intend to pay his debt. This was followed by a threat of litigation.
Bill was for $1K, 5 days of Medicare copay at $200/day, which began after the 20 day 100% coverage period. My father had secondary insurance which covers that -- no attempt was apparently made to file that.
Anyway, 30 days after charges began, and 24 days after he died, they send such a letter, and to a dead man.

Also, see "steganography", the hiding of a real message inside a larger message.
That can be done by hand, with physical letters easily. You send someone a collection of your favorite recipes for something you make up. In that, you hide the real message by some agreed upon formula.

A special prayer for those with wayward family members, that they find their way back to family and God. May you all have peace in your families.

I plan to take her over there tomorrow after church to say goodbye.
I'm not sure how this will hit her. She has no problems with comprehension - her issues are with short term memory, and thus with making decisions. We've talked about the sale and she seems to be philosophical about it. Yet she often still tells people things like "I'll be back home soon."

I don't think the estate owes that much, as I don't think they filed with the secondary insurance. He was in such a facility a few years back for rehab, and the secondary covered the difference.
At any rate, after receiving a letter like that, out of the blue, I'm gonna slow walk the whole process and drag out paying whatever they are ultimately owed as long as possible.

That can be done by hand, with physical letters easily. You send someone a collection of your favorite recipes for something you make up. In that, you hide the real message by some agreed upon formula.

I'm back from washing and feeding the car. Strangely it's *almost* pleasant out there -- I emphasize *almost*, as it's still nastily humid. But a temp of 73-75 at seven a.m. instead of ten degrees more, as it was in July and August, is welcome.
Off to barber shortly -- and the library: some books to donate, some to return, some to extend, and some new ones to find and take out.

In order to acquire “the right data” to achieve this goal, USACE lists a series of questions it aims to answer over the next three years to advance DEIA throughout the service. Among the listed questions are
“Does equity apply the same for all groups across the board? If not, why might that be?” and
“Does everyone feel included and a sense of belonging?”
Equity by definition does NOT apply to the same groups across the board. In fact the application of EQUITY requires that Group A be punished so that Group B is rewarded.

It was indeed. I hated my work, which was outdoors in the heat. But I loved my home life (married -- and happily -- for the second time), I was working on a novel, the booze had not yet gripped me in its jaws again, my workouts were good, Arizona the red tabby w/ white was a year old, and for most of that year we lived in a two-bedroom half-house with a big living room and a local park right outside the front door. Damned if I recall why we moved from that place.
And a lot of pop music, like "Ghostbusters" (and the movie of course!) and "Holding Out For a Hero," was dynamite.

When we feel the pressure to conform to the insanity of a God-less culture driven by a totalitarian power elite, we must ask ourselves: who are we trying to please? Whoever we are trying to please, that is who we serve. God gives us free will to choose - will we serve Him, or will we serve those who seek to undermine our relationship with Him? We can't serve both.

I particularly enjoy the liberal Christians who demand to know why Catholics and traditional Christians are so obsessed with sex
Likely because it's easy to go bumpity-bump down a road leading to real and tragic consequences. People get angry all the time but rarely commit murder. On the other hand, it's not all that difficult to go from flirting with other women to adultery.

Possible celebrity sightings for CU vs. USC game
Many A-list celebrities are set to travel to Boulder for Saturday’s matchup.
According to Sports Illustrated, notable names like LeBron James, Jay Z and Matthew McConaughey are rumored to be watching the game unfold on Folsom Field.
Lil Wayne is also expected to return to Boulder after he helped lead the team out onto the field before the matchup against Nebraska. Sanders gifted the rapper a custom jersey with his nickname, “Tunechi,” emblazoned on the back, so he will most likely be repping the Buffs this weekend.
The celebrity list doesn’t end there.
College Football Blue Bloods, a college football content creator account on X, formerly known as Twitter, said Snoop Dogg, DJ Khaled and Will Ferrell are also rumored to be attending the game.

I think the time was better. Leaders were more mature, the culture was rational, etc. Consider that Gary Hart had to drop out of the presidential race because he was caught cheating.

When we feel the pressure to conform to the insanity of a God-less culture driven by a totalitarian power elite, we must ask ourselves: who are we trying to please? Whoever we are trying to please, that is who we serve. God gives us free will to choose - will we serve Him, or will we serve those who seek to undermine our relationship with Him? We can't serve both.

Lust is absolutely the most dangerous of all the deadly sin. Hardest to resist. Dom Lorenzo Scupoli wrote that there can be no long-term resistance to it, the best thing to do is run away, avoid the circumstances where it can arise. The temptation is just too dangerous, and we see that playing out today.

See, here's what you gotta do: go somewhere where there is so much snow (yes, Western Wyoming) that it is beautiful all winter, and the localities have dedicated the resources to its constant removal from the roadways.
I didn't really like winter much, then I moved to Wyoming, and the winter joy was kind of infectious. Now I miss it.

I can't say I like winter, but I made peace with Wyoming winters (snow more so than wind) after I got good Icebug boots and quit busting my ass on the ice. The biggest problem I had with Wyo winters is how long they are. I'd get depressed around April every year because it was supposed to be spring.
The blissful summers and autumns more than made up for any winter unhappiness.

2) can understands and can plot out gameplay like a mofo
3) both - very rare
He's obviously the "recruiting" guy and has few if any game strategy or training chops.
His task will be to find up and coming genius offensive and defensive coaches who don't mind playing under a monster ego who will soak up all sunlight and credit.

A fun thing about working in libraries is occasionally you'll find letters or other interesting things in library books. My favorite (and also the saddest) was a beautiful handmade Valentine card tucked in a geology book. In spite of the sediment, the relationship met a rocky end.
Now I work mostly with data and I never find any Valentine cards there, although sometimes I find amusing or mystifying things that a confused human or machine did.

B. is cognitively disabled and we wanted to have him visit. Can't drive to our place so we put him on a bus. Nashville's bus stop is a hell hole and rattled him. He did get on the right bus but the driver skipped stopping at the rural stops between N. and Raleigh that would get him here. So, B. freaked and was dumped off in the middle of nowhere after he became agitated. LEO got involved but no real harm done. We finally located him and drove all over God's green acres to retrieve him.
We made a mistake putting him on a bus but all's well that ends.

I'm not sure how this will hit her. She has no problems with comprehension - her issues are with short term memory, and thus with making decisions. We've talked about the sale and she seems to be philosophical about it. Yet she often still tells people things like "I'll be back home soon."

Wife hasn't been doing her cancer treatments (missed a month helping her dad, came back, Hilary caused one missed, missed two more for infections, and will miss next one for new infection, plus has new tumor in new organ, a lung).
younger son is being a stupid teenager. Found drugs (weed, shrooms) in his room, he didn't see anything wrong with what he did (not to mention, my house, my rules, zero drug policy). Might still get HS diploma in continuation school after failing all classes last semester and first quarter of school year.
FIL is finally out of the hospital. Decided to spend and extra month doing stuff instead of getting his surgery. As wife flew out for her treatments almost 2wks ago, he flew into and almost immediately went to emergency. Was released from hospital yesterday; needed vascular catheter insertion to do dialysis, had hospital dialysis for 1 1/2 weeks in hospital, doing dialysis this morning, so better...
All this means I haven't been working, so with big bills coming up (home insurance, car insurance), will be...fun figuring out which bills not to pay. Dunno who'll drop first; me or wife.
Such is life.

Even though I signed out while Trump was still president, they didn't give me a retirement certificate signed by him. They disposed of them early at Bragg. I declined having a Biden one sent to me. Wrote to Trump, and he sent me a letter. Form letter, but his team had a response ready, at least.

Since I was forced out by Biden's vaxx b.s., I saved the certificate for its irony. The way things are going, a non-defaced one may be a valuable collectible some day.

No, they're teasing him. He's not on the roster but "protected" from other CFL teams showing interest. Basically, they put him on ice.
Oh, and the CFL salaries are laughably low compared to NFL, so even if they take him, his salary is going to be a joke.

How is that possible when you're only 29?
I went to a science & math high school. Many of my classmates went on to Do Great Things and Change the World. My best friend is the only one from HS I really want to keep in touch with, although there are a few it would be nice to see sometime. I don't regret getting off social media (and will never go back), but that did make it easier to catch up with people you haven't seen in ages.

I have never had one single thing get stolen or even lost. Over a decade of sending letters, packages, all kinds of stuff. Not one thing lost, ever. I've sent books and stuff to myself from multiple countries around there, never lost anything that way either. I think they're all paranoid or projecting.

Ah. Huntsville, Alabama at the Space & Rocket Center. Space Camp was a newish thing when I went *mumble* years ago. We did a mock shuttle mission, I can't remember what my job was, not the pilot or we surely would have mock-crashed.
In those days they'd let you crawl inside the Apollo 16 command module at the Space & Rocket Center.
They've got a real Saturn V there too. I haven't been to Huntsville in many years, but I'm not too far away now. Need to go back...

Yes, at times.
Because it is a living medium we all inhabit and it is very plastic,
can be shaped and molded, very similar to Wiccan or practices in
sorcery, a means of manipulating the natural magic and energy which surrounds us.
Of course, prayers can go off the track, when the sorcerer's take over as we see today with the Dark Globalists in charge, or in ancient Meso-America, when the sorcerer's instituted human sacrifice.
