Alexander’s Targum Lamentations reviewed

Ah the quientiscential C of E matron. And this additional note from a friend from Louisiana. Well, I concur with Mrs. Bemish, but the funniest thing of all is that the Vicar “Ken” is really my classmate Kevin Brown. Apparently someone found his picture on his church’s website and thought […]

Jesus died?! Where’s my time machine?

My wife is a relative newcomer to facebook (I have been on since 2005). She has been drawn in by the fact that over the last three months or so many of our former high school friends have been joining up. As more friends have joined you of course find […]
