#rmdo Candyman, Corpses, and #fringe #humor


In the latest episode of Fringe, from the 2nd season, that Mary and I are viewing on Amazon Prime, 3 autopsied  but animated corpses sat up and sang "Candy Man".
Weirder and weirder.. #rmdo

#rmdo Heart Attack Snow #humor

The Detroit, Michigan suburbs has been experiencing above average snow falls this year. This prompted a conversation between my brother and me:
Tim Dittmer: Boy, oh boy! I was sure glad I bought that snow blower this morning.
Heart attack snow.

Mike Dittmer: Boy, oh boy! I was sure glad I had the sense to marry a woman  who lives in a condo, where they shovel the snow for us, and we spent most of February in Florida. #rmdo

If you're making decisions about your future education, here is an something you should consider - coding. #rmdo

#rmdo #mcdonalds WHY WASNT I CALLED??!! #humor



I found, through a random question at the drive through, that McDonald's brought back their delicious cherry pies.
They had stopped selling them almost a year ago. Shortly afterwards their stores had a disastrous financial report in which, for the first time in 10 years, their stores sales dropped. Their CEO was fired.
I blogged about this and told McDonalds that if they wanted their store sales to get back on track again, they needed to BRING BACK CHERRY PIES! I reminded them of this every time I went through the drive through, until, partly though despair and partly because Mary made me, I quit asking for cherry pies for several months.
Now, without announcement or fanfare, at the original low price of two for a dollar, (they were 2 for $1.39 when they stopped selling them) cherry pies at McDonalds are back.
What upsets me, Ronald McDonald, is this: WHY WASN'T I CALLED??!! #rmdo

#rmdo Ketchup and Kisses #humor

Mary and I stopped at the drive through for burgers. Mary got some ketchup on her face. I offered to clean off the ketchup with kisses. Mary said No.. not while I'm driving. #rmdo

#rmdo Life Giving Hell Fire Quenching GRACE! #prayer #wisdompoet

Only Your GRACE! keeps me from being consumed by Your fiery anger..
GRACE! that flows like a mighty river from the Cross.
I embrace that Cross where Your Son willingly died for my sins.
Fill my heart, soul, body, spirit, my life..
with a flood of Your life giving, Hell fire quenching GRACE! #rmdo

#rmdo Drawing a Box Around #God #humor #romance

Mary and I will soon be married 3 years, the day after my 65th birthday. I find both her and our love amazing.
Time after time during this 3 years I will say, "It can't get any better!?" and then it does.
I'm going to try to quit drawing a box around God and how much He can bless the love between two of His children. #rmdo

#rmdo Further Observations About #Fringe #geekhumor

Two further observations about Fringe:
1. The plot line is about whackey people chasing even whackier people.
2. Never say at any point that the plot line can't get any stranger. #rmdo

#rmdo #fringe: weirder and weirder #humor

Mary and I are watching another episode of the first season of Fringe. This episode deals with the spontaneous combustion of people. It just keeps getting weirder and weirder. #rmdo

#rmdc SETTLED! #dralberta

It's SETTLED! RECEIVE! REMAIN! REJOICE! Dr. Alberta (the sermon outline made a good quote, don't you think?)

#rmdo #homeschooling, #salvation, #grace #wisdompoet

Homeschooling is (or should be) like salvation- not a burden but a joy, relying on the indwelling grace flowing from the child made in the IMAGE OF GOD. #rmdo

#rmdo Fairness vs Generosity #wisdompoet

I don't want God to be fair. I want God to be generous. God doesn't give us what we deserve. He gives us what we need.#rmdo (Dr. Alberta brought up this point in his message which reminded me of my quote from some time ago.)
