I don’t know if I’ve shared this song before, but I’ll tell ya’ – during my dark days, this was the message I needed to hear. Even now, even on my good days, this message still brings me to tears.
It applies to everyone on the Couch, too.
The days will come when you don’t have the strength
When all you hear is you’re not worth anything / Wondering if you ever could be loved
And if they truly saw your heart they’d see too much
You’re beautiful / You’re beautiful / You are made for so much more than all of this
You’re beautiful / You’re beautiful / When all you hear is you’re not worth anything
Wondering if you ever could be loved / And if they truly saw your heart they’d see too much
You’re beautiful / You’re beautiful / You are made for so much more than all of this
You’re beautiful / You’re beautiful / You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You’re beautiful
And praying that you have the heart to find
Cause you are more than what is hurting you tonight
For all the lies you’ve held inside so long
And they are nothing in the shadow of the cross
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You’re beautiful
And praying that you have the heart to find
Cause you are more than what is hurting you tonight
For all the lies you’ve held inside so long
And they are nothing in the shadow of the cross
I love the group MercyMe. The lead singer has a daughter with some kind of serious health issue, and his song “Even If” also brings tears to my eyes, because it sprung out of his feelings for his daughter. He has an incredible story as well, and you can find it in the movie “Imagine”.
That ring was kinda gauche, anyway.
Too thick, heavy, pierce carved James Avery yellow gold. Extremely uncomfortable.
It’s successor was (is) much better.

An employee decided my shiny new wedding ring needed a new home.
Oh yeah, good times.
Wonderful.
Into the Favorites in record time.

Wooden shoes, wooden head, wouldn’t listen.
Christmas was coming. Payroll – including massive overtime – had to be made throughout this large project.
Except for the principals.
We worked some twenty hour days.
I was one tired, broke, and angry hombre.

Yes, you did. I’d forgotten about that bastard who ran off to China and left us hanging.
I questioned the testicular volume of a Dutchman once.
Crooked third party inspection outfit.
They’re a pushy bunch.

FALL OF CIVILIZATION DAILY “All the News that Fits We Print”
by VANDERLEUN on OCTOBER 16, 2019
Commenter John the River requests, Some more pictures of cute puppies interwoven between the stories of the ‘Fall of Civilization’ would be appreciated.
Challenge Accepted!
I went to a Flower Auction in Amsterdam.
They sell backwards…high to low.
I’m glad our resident chemist cleared up that the Dutch do not have a problem with our atmosphere containing close to 80% N2.
I saw that this morning, I say bring it on, we could use more rain, still down about 17″ for the year. And that includes the very wet, early spring and slightly wet summer.
ALERT
Must see TV.

Good grief. A 26 year old woman from Israel (born American) has a tiny bit of pot in her luggage and gets busted in Moscow on a layover from India. Now an international incident ensues from this clusterf*ck. Na’ama, 26, was returning to Israel from India in April of this year, but when she changed planes in Moscow, a dog… Read more »
Who could possibly give a rat’s behind about what some rich knee grow who doesn’t even have a high school edumacation says or thinks or feels about anything? I just don’t understand why anyone gives these people the time of day – like they knew what the time of day means or something. Who’s stupider – the people who say… Read more »
I always feel more edumacated after spending even a few minutes here on The Couch!
Mr. James is being reminded of this tweet back a couple years ago.

Oh I don’t know. They look pretty good for people in their 90’s.
68 phil Does Starr Boggs now deliver lobster bisque and baked North Shore clams to the doorstep? Since they’re not on the water and don’t have a boat dock, I’ll never know. And the fact I don’t eat shellfish is a problem since that’s most of what they do. Let me tell you something. I’ve seen photos of homeless people… Read more »

We’re sending you a disturbance from the Gulf.
All the rain you want.

Yeah, we’re having a pretty good little frog strangler here. It’s been raining hard for about 4 hours. Where I live we don’t flood, but there are plenty of low places around here that do. Winds aren’t due until around midnight. It will be dry tomorrow although winds are supposed to be steady at 25 mph.

Great catch.
I see.
Does Starr Boggs now deliver lobster bisque and baked North Shore clams to the doorstep?
And Grey Poupon and butter for the bread along with a free rental of Splash starring Daryl Hannah?
Courtesy of Townhall: Back when Biden was running against Obama in 2008, the Democrats could not have cared less about running interference for the Gaffing Blunder Boy. Brokaw hammered him on national TV about Hunter back then. Tom Brokaw grilled Joe Biden about Hunter being hired by MBNA, a credit card company based in Delaware, right out of law school.… Read more »

It’s those damn nitrites and nitrates in bacon that’s going to kill us all. In fact, the study that originally connected nitrates with cancer risk and caused the scare in the first place has since been discredited after being subjected to a peer review. There have been major reviews of the scientific literature that found no link between nitrates or… Read more »

All those orange groves in central Florida disappeared in the 80s. Global warming caused historical and prolonged cold winters that wiped out the groves. They were replaced by lumber pines and large palm farms for landscaping.

He’s gotta wrap the dogs and bring the pipes inside.
And throw the patio furniture into the pool.
On a related topic, when’s the Astros game gonna be?
He wants to immediately reduce, by diktat, the speed limit for the entire nation to 70 kph or 43.496 mph. Sounds like everyone’s fave preezy of united steezy, Peanuts, when he lowered the speed limit to 55. I drove from Norman to N. Cal. and back a few times back then. Difference between 55 & 75 is staggering at that… Read more »
That’s exactly the opposite of what needs to happen. Nitrogen fixing plants make their own fertilizer.
They really shouldn’t call it a “nitrogen” crisis. The problem is nitrogen containing compounds, not nitrogen gas. Nitric oxides, nitrates, and ammonium compounds are the problem. And yes, they are essentially fertilizers in the environment. Runoff from animal farms can be a problem. In Florida back in the 70s and 80s many of the lakes were giant slime reservoirs because… Read more »
I do hope that Texpat got the memo. According to ABC News, northern New Jersey is in a deadly Cyclone, with 80 MPH wind gusts and a possibility of 4 inches of rain! Apparently everyone will be killed! I hope that he battened down the hatches and wrapped up the dawgs and his pipe! 😉
Sounds like Holland needs to plant clover or some other common nitrogen-fixing plant, so they won’t be bothered by all that “excess” nitrogen in their air. OMG.

Thanks, Hammy, that was it!
53 Shannon
No, they say there’s too much nitrogen in the air in Holland.
It constitutes nearly 80% of the earth’s atmosphere, for crying out loud.
52 Hamous Congress, especially the Democrats, like things just the way they are. Decades ago, Congress ceded their power to the White House on foreign military engagement. This way they don’t have to take responsibility when things go wrong or not as we expected them to and can lean back in DC, hold useless hearings and blame the President for… Read more »
I just assumed the nitrogen issue had to do with fertilizer runoff. Which is probably the only legitimate ag pollution concern, 1st worldwide.
And cow farts. (Including bovine ones.)
If the duplicitous Dems and neocons want us to stay in endless, centuries-old conflicts they are the only ones who have the power – they should declare war. Not sure who they’d declare against. Turkey? Declare war or STFU.
37 Shannon I looked up this “nitrogen crisis” in the Netherlands. What the hell ? I can’t keep up and I thought everybody was hysterical over carbon. It turns out the globalist Dutch Grand Poobah commissioned a report from some of his buddies who came out and said we have a nitrogen crisis. Who knew and what will the crisis… Read more »

Yeah, I saw that. Enes Kanter’s family lives under near house arrest in Turkey and Erdogan has threatened to throw his father in prison.
I’m still waiting for the LeBron James family story about them being harassed and tortured by the Trump administration.
The vet tag means very little anymore.
I would just rather spend the next campaign looking at her. Plus, she can put together at least three sentences before going all bug-eyed Commie.
Heh heh heh.
