Speaking of vegemite, my sermon at St John's on Dec 30 is to be entitled "Last Words". This arose from a conv. with my wife that recurs from time to time. I'll say something like "Excuse me, I need to use the bathroom" and then "I hope those aren't my last words" . . . "or those" . . . "or that" . . . at which point Lynn says "Please shut up".
I want my last words to be something better than "Sorry about that fart". So then for a while I'll follow all mundane utterances ("Oh that was stupid of me") by saying to Lynn " . . . and I love you my dear" or "Being with you has been the most wonderful thing ever". But it's easy to forget. So today for example if I peg out while typing this, my wife's final memory of me will be my saying to her "I'm off to get a haircut". Not very inspiring. Especially since I won't be there at 1pm to pick her up and she'll be getting angrier and angrier wondering where I am.
I hope these aren't my last words . . . but if so, the past twenty and more years at Cafe D'Artre, WDYK?, the Soapbox and now here have been really something. Or other.

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

I guess I don't need to refrigerate it. I just need to remember where I put it.
It only expires when the statute of limitations for dumping toxic waste runs out.

No vegemite?

Wanting to make sure Vegemite is *not* the last word.
A far better choice would be chocolate.

Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?
