The irony of a member of the Trump family trying to talk about values is certainly off the charts but there is nothing that this family won't do to earn a quick buck. Cheers!

Then the class bully walked into the washroom and asked me why I was being a big baby and crying. I explained what was going on and he said - eeeeey you have to pull the zipper down then he left. The next day he started talking to me and we eventually became friends. Cheers!

Problems of Orthodoxy in America
The Spiritual Problem
by Father Alexander Schmemann
This is an incredibly insightful and penetrating essay which, when written decades ago in the sixties, probably applied almost solely to America. Unfortunately, after the fall of Communism secularism began to make steady inroads into historically Orthodox countries. While in Romania in January, 2008, I distinctly remember the highly esteemed Bishop Vasile of Cluj-Napoca remarking with great sadness that secularism was perhaps the greatest threat to the Church in Romania, and that stemming its tide seemed almost hopeless. Other pious Romanians lamented the abrupt loss of morality and Christian virtue in general that began... less

If you've been trying to sell your car for 20 years without success, that is no reason to give up hope.2) You have to put your car out there.3) Remember, the buyer is just as nervous as you are.4) Don't put your buyer on a pedestal. It's up to them to impress you, not the other way round.5) Exercise Drive your car every day6) Shower Wash your car every day7) Be honest.8) Fake it till you make it. If you convince yourself that your car is a Ferrari, buyers will see it as a Ferrari.9) If a buyer rejects your car because it's ugly, then it just proves he or she is shallow. You deserve someone better.10) If you find you can't sell your car, maybe you need to lower your standards. Be realistic - you're not going to get an aristocrat or a movie star to buy your car.11) Don't seal the deal on a first date meeting with a potential buyer. The buyer will respect your car more if you make him wait.12) My friend manages to sell two, maybe three, cars every week, and they're way uglier, slower an... less

And I also think that the horrible things he is talking about are him having to pay back taxes. He also might of meant it as a treat which kind of seems more likely. Cheers and happy New Year!

Rosie was dedicated to saving America by facing and fighting Donald J. Trump and anybody who looked or acted like him. So in her absence I figured I better continue her work. I think I have been very diligent at continuing Rosie's work so a trophy or medal would be helpful in continuing her work in the New Year. Cheers and Happy New Year!
