I know my Michigan peeps are suffering in the heat but even with their heat index we've got 10 degrees on them. I left for my Wednesday ride, a 35-miler, at 7:30 this morning and that wasn't early enough. Four bottles of water didn't do it either (I stop to refill at the turn-around point.) It's been almost 12 hours and I'm still recovering.
The cleaning product Spic and Span was invented in 1933 by two housewives, Elizabeth MacDonald and Naomi Stenglein who lived in Saginaw, Michigan. For years it came only in powder form and needed to be mixed with water.
Did you know we had a soccer team??
It's starting to look like the government crackdown in Iran will have its intended effect. Brute force applied without restraint will usually carry the day. But driving it underground may only cause the pressure to build until it erupts again, with greater force and effectiveness. Worth watching.

The central exegetical issue in this section is the meaning of the word "glossolalia," typically translated with the English word "tongues." The Pentecostal and Charismatic movements understand that term to refer to ecstatic speech unintelligible to humans, a "heavenly language" understood by God and by angels. Those who speak in tongues are worshiping God under the controlling influence of the Holy Spirit.
To be sure, some of the things Paul writes in this chapter make that sound like a correct understanding of glossolalia. However, the first Scriptural use of this word in Acts 2 seems to have a very different meaning. At that event it appears believers spoke in real human languages unknown to them.
So which is it? Or is it one thing in Acts 2 and another in 1 Cor. 14?
Ah, to get the answer to that one you have to show up Sunday morning.
Or listen online from the church website Monday.
I had hoped that the Geico caveman ads had finally disappeared.
How much should I tip the person who cuts my hair? It was only $10 - not a lot to cut - but I had no clue what made for an appropriate gratuity. I asked her but she wouldn't give me an answer. I'm not going to tell you what I ended up doing just in case it makes me look really cheap or really stupid (or both). So you gotta help me out on this one because I'll probably go back there in a month or two.

The technical answer to tipping barbers or hairdressers centers on whether they rent a chair or own the shop. Common practice is that if they own the shop, they get 100% of your fee and aren't due a tip. If they are an employee, then a 10-20% tip is appropriate. I buck common thought and tip $2, even though my barber is the only one in the shop she owns. I rarely follow tradition for tradition sake. CYB
I was just wondering that! I always tip a hairdresser 15%, but I'm going to start using a woman with her own business out of her home. Since she gets all the money anyway, I wasn't sure how to handle that. Thanks for asking!

I appreciate your sermon series. Looking forward to hearing and learning more on Sunday.
I don't tip my barber anymore. After many months of tipping him, he finally said to me, "If I needed more than I charge I would raise my price."
