Quote of the Day

"Character may be manifested in the great moments, but it is made in the small ones."

– Phillips Brooks

I had an unusual Thanksgiving, and I did our play slips over dinner. It wasn’t until I scan the tickets that I realized; I had two lines the same. Sorry about that.

We didn’t win in Saturday’s night’s drawing, but the good news is that no one won the Jack Pot, its going up.

Here is the Spreadsheet that Mac provides us: http://tinyurl.com/2nvbld

Your next drawing is Saturday November 28^th, 2007. That drawing is worth $26 Million. The Cash Option is worth $16.2 Million.

There were 19 shares sold in this game. So I will take the Cash Option from Lotto Texas and divided it by 19. Here is what you would net, it does NOT include any attorney fees, taxes or tithes:

Shares Purchased	Winnings
.5	$426,315.78
1	$852,631.57
4	$3,410,526.28

Getting Into Heaven

I was testing the children in my Sunday school class to see if they understood the concept of getting to heaven.

I asked them, "If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the church, would that get me into Heaven?"

"NO!" the children answered.

"If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the yard, and kept everything neat and tidy, would that get me into Heaven?"

Again, the answer was, "NO!"

By now I was starting to smile. Hey, this was fun!

"Well, then, if I was kind to animals and gave candy to all the children, and loved my wife, would that get me into Heaven?" I asked them again.

Again, they all answered, "NO!"

I was just bursting with pride for them. "Well," I continued, "then how can I get into Heaven?"

A five-year-old boy shouted out, “YOU GOTTA BE DEAD!"
