John Kloehr Posted May 9 Posted May 9 Intersting insight into the Bible. Did not know when judgement day came, men would arrive a 1/2 hour before women. Look for yourself, Revelation 8:1: "When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour" 2 7 Quote
John Kloehr Posted May 9 Posted May 9 From: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1017258899258118/permalink/1763432501307417/?_rdr " FREE ROOSTER- Demon in a feather suit. Up for rehoming one extremely effective, deeply unpleasant rooster who has taken his job way too seriously and now believes he is the final boss of the property. HIGHLIGHTS- Protects his hens like they’re under federal protection. Zero fear, zero hesitation, zero interest in your safety. Stunning bird, absolute menace. LET ME BE VERY CLEAR He does not like people, not you, not me. Not anyone! This is not a “he just needs love situation” he received love but rejected it. Violently! He will not bond with you. He will however identify your weaknesses and exploit them. If you enter his space, you are not the owner - you are an intruder, and he will respond accordingly. Daily experiences include - Surprise attacks from a bird that weighs less than your groceries, but hits like he has a grudge. Making eye contact and immediately regretting it. Questioning how something with feathers can carry so much hostility. IDEAL HOME. Someone experienced with roosters, a strong sense of humor, quick reflexes, and possibly shin guards. Best for a setup where he can protect his hens without needing to interact with humans unless absolutely necessary (and even the, good luck). REASON FOR REHOMING We enjoy farming, he enjoys violence! These goals no longer align! " 1 5 Quote

Look for yourself, Revelation 8:1: "When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour" That's an erroneous interpretation. The women arrived well before the men. In the Greek the word used means "the silent glare" or "the cold silence." St. Jerome mistranslated it in the Vulgate Bible. 2 Quote

Sedalia Dave Posted May 10 Posted May 10 An Ellisville school teacher called the local phone company to report her telephone failed to ring when her friends called and that on the few occasions, when it did ring, her dog always moaned right before the phone rang. The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see this psychic dog or senile lady. He climbed a telephone pole, hooked in his test set, and dialed the subscriber's house. The phone didn't ring right away, but then the dog moaned and the telephone began to ring. Climbing down from the pole, the telephone repairman found: 1. The dog was tied to the telephone system's ground wire with a steel chain and collar. 2. The wire connection to the ground rod was loose. 3. The dog was receiving 90 volts of signaling current when the number was called. 4.. After a couple of jolts, the dog would start moaning and then urinate. 5. The wet ground would complete the circuit, thus causing the phone to ring. This demonstrates that some problems CAN be solved by pissing and moaning. Thought you'd like to know. 1 4 Quote

Actually went out on a trouble like that once! The phone still rang but the dog would get zapped! After party lines went away, the ground was no longer needed for the ringer to work. My customer was on the ring side of an old party line so it didn't need to be rewired when party lines went away . Poor doggie, that ringing current hurts!! It was closer to 105V in our system. 1 2 Quote

I took what the queen said - why is this knight different from any other knight - did the search on that but leaving the K off. Why is this NIGHT different than any other NIGHT. Turns out that that's the beginning of something during the Sedar, and it's actually what he was saying - in Hebrew. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ma_Nishtana 2 2 Quote
