International Left Handers Day

August 13, 2019 Herb 1
Jdg 20:16  Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men lefthanded; every one could sling stones at an hair breadth, and not miss. 10% of the world’s population is left-handed, and if you are blessed or lucky enough to be Continue Reading[...]

Jeptha Berengar

August 12, 2019 Herb 2

Again?

August 10, 2019 Herb 2

Just Wait

October 9, 2018 Herb 4
The retail world is crazy and they have taken a time of wonder and beauty and turned it into something crass and vulgar.  Or at least they have tried.  No matter how much Mad Ave, Hollyweird and the rest of the entertainment Continue Reading[...]

Passin’ Through

On the main page here I have a few fan pages about Louis L’Amour books and stories relating to the Sackett, Talon, and Chantry families.  The two chronologies, one I call Louis’ chronology, which is based on his book about the Sacketts and my sticking Continue Reading[...]

September 27, 2018 Herb 3
Dear Fans, Friends, Fiends, Foes and Foundlings, I like to shop at the dollar store.  I also like the ARC Thrift Store and the Goodwill and stores like that.  A lot of times you can find things in these places that a Continue Reading[...]
