Am praying you have a wonderful ceremony Twinky. I hope you share some pics... and hope you have an excellent photographer!

The Street Walker Strangler -- story about a merciless killer who had a bad childhood and abused drugs and who later committed suicide. While in St. Louis, visit the Gateway Arch and Basilica of St. Louis... (I was blessed to hear that she has great appreciation for and loves to visit old Roman Catholic Cathedrals).

Amen. We thought we had all the right stuff... am thankful now to see that that presumption was erroneous.

Excellent and sharp point she makes i.e.... women no longer need to be silenced in public as was in recent history and culture at the time -- but Paul confirmed women deacons completely smashing that view. AI gave me a different take that was quite pleasing to me -- it said that verses about women being silenced in the church, should predominantly be interpreted as in the context of local Corinthian women causing a disturbance of local worship services only and not a general prohibition on women speaking altogether in church services.

Another musical genius who died early due to alcohol and drug abuse...

Sorry about that Raf! From now on, I will only comment on her non-political stuff as time allows-- Sure wish we had a little political corner...

This great song was a hit for the Miracles, the Beatles and Percy Sledge:

Agree! News reports (from independent media) proclaim over 60,000 + innocent Palestinians have been murdered in Gaza by Israeli Military onslaught. Complete hypocrisy from a religion that touts "thou shalt not kill" as one of its commandments. Or else, "Israel" is not who many think they are.

Here's a video that popped up on my YouTube page, no doubt because I've been watching Monte's videos; thought I'd post it here:

American Mafia -- thorough and enjoyable to hear the history of the Mob. When she was in NY she lived in Astoria... so did I for a year or so...memories...

Love the string bass ... played it when I was in high school (HS of Performing Arts, Manhattan)

The murder-suicide of Zack and Addie ... horrible and gruesome... he suffered from PTSD already ... THAT plus the drug abuse was enough to open up the trap door allowing the evil spirit(s) to enter ...

I'll try to watch as much of her stuff as I can... she's got alot there. It may be helpful for someone simply to mention a topic that she believes in and we can discuss it outright rather than watch the video... "Legend of the Bell Witch" -- No problem believing it... evil spirits and related activities etc.
