We have all read the parable of the good Samaritan and nod our heads, thinking that we would have helped that poor man, however, we rarely give credence to the parable because after all, it is just a parable.

When was the last time you saw someone in need and walked away shaking your head?  You may have even thought, "I really wish I could have helped but there was nothing I could do." 

Those words are nothing more than a way to sooth your guilty conscience.

I’m not a musician. I’ve only ever been “booed” off stage once in my life.  Maybe twice after today.  Perhaps I should explain.

She was one of the innocent casualties of my split from God. In fact, she was the most innocent of all until I shattered her glorious naivety in 1982.

MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin (AP) -- A 56-year-old Milwaukee man is accused of shooting his lawn mower because it wouldn't start. He told police: "I can do that, it's my lawn mower and my yard so I can shoot it if I want," however, if found guilty, he could face an eleven thousand dollar fine and spend six years and three months in prison.

Perhaps him being drunk and using a sawed off shotgun upset the locals.

We've all been there.
