Capt. James H. Callahan

I've spent some time in prison thru Kairos for the last 12 years or so. Going in Thu thru Sun (hopefully, Robertson Unit is currently on lockdown) and am a volunteer chaplain there. As may be expected most what you see on TV and the movies is hogwash. JHC

I HATE those cussed things and pretty much refuse to use them. I walked out of one and left a buggy full of stuff because there were no cashiers not too long ago. JHC

Seems I recall long ago Ohio only allowed shotguns? I guess that's an improvement if so. JHC

Prayer sent just now. Back in Jan. my sister and her husband died almost exactly 24 hrs apart from secondary pneumonia from Covid. They were both pretty much anti vaxers and were not immunized against C19 or pneumonia. Pneumonia is a killer. If you're not immunized protect your life and get shot! JHC

It would be nice if people that make gun laws knew SOMETHING about guns other than they hate them. JHC

That's so hard. Been there more times than I care to recall, probably about to happen soon with our 19 yr old pom. It never gets easier, if anything only harder. You'd think old dogs would be considerate enough to just up and die, but it seldom happens that way. JHC The Power of the Dog, Rudyard Kipling https://www.bartleby.com/364/335.html

My thought is fight shy of odd ball calibers. I like time proven. 20 years from now the 5.56, 7.62 NATO, .30/06 and .30/30 will most likely still be around. .223 Wylde and .350 Legend? They may be great performers, but I'd pass. JMHO, worth what you paid for it. JHC

April 5. We scored the teddy bear on our last cruise. Two days later she was at death's door. JHC

Nora Benjamin's Story on FB. JHC https://www.facebook.com/Nora-Benjamins-Story-106197011167760/

First photos were posted on her FB story three hours ago. I take it they were taken today. JHC

April 7. She was on TOTAL bypass. Kidneys had pretty much shut down.

Gal my wife used to work with has a grand daughter named Nora. I could make a REAL long post about all her health problems including a heart transplant and several near brushes with death. The latest was a 40 day stay in the hospital with a code blue that lasted a long time. Thought AGAIN that she was lost. She went home today. Lots of prayers answered. She just turned 5 years old. If you are so inclined please send up prayers for God's continued healing for this little girl. Personally I think He has some kinda great plan in store for her. Sus amigo, JHC

There's one around here at a Methodist camp where we have Kairos stuff. Way out in the sticks where cell service is iffy at best. JHC
