smell?
Posted:
March 8, 2007 | 9:40 AM | Emily Ralph
To get rid of skunk smell on dogs, people, objects:
1 quart of hydrogen peroxide
1/4 c. baking soda
1 t. liquid dishwashing soap
To get rid of lingering
skunk smell in the house or car, cut up fresh lemons
and set around the space--we're told it gets rid of
the smell within an hour!

My voice is so bad, I can not sing a note
And no one would listen to songs that I wrote.
So when I wake up, I know just what to do
I turn on the Word FM Morning Show crew!
Miss Emmy is sweet, and she
brings out our smiles
With her charm, intellect and her feminine wiles.
While Dave cranks the tunes out to brighten our days
And teases Miss Em in the funniest ways.
So if you find coffee just
won't do the trick
Tune in to the Morning Show crew - they're a kick!
Sick Notes
Posted:
February 26, 2007 | 2:52 PM | Emily Ralph
These are real
notes written by parents in a Tennessee school
district.
1. My son is under a
doctor's care and should not take PE today. Please
execute him.
2. Please excuse Lisa for being absent. She was sick
and I had her shot.
3. Please excuse John being absent on January 28,
29, 30, 31, 32 and also 33.
4. Please excuse Roland from PE for a few days.
Yesterday he fell out of a tree and misplaced his
hip.
5. John has been absent because he had two teeth
taken out of his face.
6. Megan could not come to school today because she
has been bothered by very close veins.
7. Chris will not be in school because he has an
acre in his side.
8. Please excuse Jennifer for missing school
yesterday. We forgot to get the Sunday paper off the
porch, and when we found it Monday we thought it was
Sunday.
Spiritual
Pathways Assessment

God is "Big
Enough"
Posted:
February 5, 2007 | 7:40 AM | Emily Ralph
We've been reading through the Bible this year and right
now we are reading about Moses and the God
delivering the Israelites from Pharaoh in Egypt.
I came across this article from
NetBible.org:
What would have happened had Moses tried to figure out what
was needed to accomplish God’s command? One of the
biggest arithmetical miracles in the world was
required in the desert.
Moses led the people of Israel into the desert….Now what
was he going to do with them? They had to be fed,
and feeding 3-1/2 million people required a lot of
food. According to the U. S. Army’s Quartermaster
General, Moses needed 1500 tons of food a day,
filling two freight trains, each a mile long.
Besides, you must remember, they were cooking the
food. Just for cooking this took 4000 tons of
firewood and a few more freight trains, each a mile
long and this is only for one day (not to mention
for keeping warm, and if anyone tells you it doesn’t
get cold in the desert don’t believe them!). They
were for forty YEARS in transit!!!
Let’s not forget about water, shall we? If they only had
enough to drink and wash a few dishes (no
bathing?!), it took 11,000,000 gallons EACH
DAY--enough to fill a train of tanker cars 1800
miles long.
And another thing! They had to get across the red sea in
one night. Now if they went on a narrow path, double
file, the line would be 800 miles long and require
35 days and nights to complete the crossing. So to
get it over in one night there had to be a space in
the Red Sea 3 miles wide so that they could walk
5,000 abreast. Think about this; every time they
camped at the end of the day, a camp ground the size
of Rhode Island was required, or 750 square miles.
Do you think that Moses sat down and figured out the
logistics of what God told him to do before he set
out from Egypt? I doubt it. He had faith that God
would take care of everything. Let us have courage,
we share the very same God!
Computers
vs. Cars
Posted:
January 30, 2007 | 9:20 AM | Emily Ralph
The Word FM received this via e-mail and makes no
claim to accuracy or intention—we just thought it
was really funny!
At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates
reportedly compared the computer industry with the
auto industry and stated: “If GM had kept up with
technology like the computer industry has, we would
all be driving $25 cars that got 1,000 miles to the
gallon.”
In response to Bill’s comment, General Motors issued
a press release stating:
If GM had developed technology like Microsoft, we
would all be driving cars with the following
characteristics:
-
For no reason
whatsoever, your car would crash. . . twice a day.
-
Every time they
repainted the lines in the road, you would have to
buy a new car.
-
Occasionally your
car would die on the freeway for no reason. You
would have to pull to the side of the road, close
all of the windows, shut off the car, restart it,
and reopen the windows before you could continue.
For some reason you would simply accept this.
-
Occasionally,
executing a maneuver such as a left turn would
cause your car to shut down and refuse to restart,
in which case you would have to reinstall the
engine.
-
Macintosh would make
a car that was powered by the sun, was reliable,
five times as fast and twice as easy to drive—but
would run on only five percent of the roads.
-
The oil, water
temperature, and alternator warning lights would
all be replaced by a single “This Car has
performed an illegal operation” warning light.
-
The airbag system
would ask “Are you sure?” before deploying.
-
Occasionally, for no
reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out and
refuse to let you in until you simultaneously
lifted the door handle, turned the key and grabbed
hold of the radio antenna.
-
Every time a new car
was introduced, car buyers would have to learn how
to drive all over again because none of the
controls would operate in the same manner as the
old car.
-
You’d have to press
the “start” button to turn the engine off.
