WHY I'M CALLED MAD DOG

As usual I'm reversing my thank you by saying it before I read the next awesome blog by my hero Don. I like to do a lot of things back asswards. 
I also have gotten into the habit of praising the Lord before the experience which I do on a daily basis. I would actually go to work even though I was tired and grouchy saying I LOVE MY JOB! This brings to mind a workplace story that will partially explain why I am called MAD DOG. Later Gators.

THE STORY OF THE GOLD COIN IN THE FISH'S MOUTH AND JESUS

821 a.m. I'm sitting on the side of my bed. I finished my first cup of coffee. I don't think I'll post this on Facebook. I'm enjoying our friendship and mutual support and a little bit of privacy so I can talk about my personal life a little bit more open way than I can even on Facebook. 
Briefly, I not only voted for this, but I also clearly see God's providential hand in this and an answer to my specific prayer which may have happened after our company moved to Mishawaka and we brought assembly back from Mexico, but I don't remember the specific year other than it was after possibly 2000? Somewhere in that time period it dawned on me that the story of Jesus instructing one of the disciples to go fish and bring back a gold coin to pay for the temple tax was actually a heavenly hint on how to run our finances as a nation. Also, although I had fallen into the trap of thinking every president needed to be as smart as a lawyer or in the case of George Bush Jr well never mind but he was able to get everybody on board for the midterms of his first term in office. I've said enough and I take it back I am going to put this in the shepherds Journal blog but not in substack. Unlike my friends nobody shuts me up they just hide me or block me we're ignoring me until they're ready to talk me to me. I just got into a rant with a liberal friend on Facebook and I'm still not blocked or warned. It's a gift but then I have to hide a lot and either small churches or third shift or I have to be married as in my first wife who took all the black slack flack silly AI but she's cheaper than a third wife.

GUARDIAN ANGELS?

To my international friends... No messenger phone calls! I love you guys but I don't want to talk to you on messenger. It is 12:47 a.m. or after midnight anyway. I finally talked the cat into sitting on my lap without jumping off even though there's chicken close by and she wants to run and get into that but she'll also settle down and let me pet her. Carl should be headed home soon Charles pardon me while I correct my silly AI secretary my Google pixel phone. I'm learning to use my secretary more and more in my blogging life. I feel compelled to share the story of Jesus but in my typical stealth mode where you don't suspect I'm a preacher and so I bring up all sorts of interesting things to talk about as I sneak around behind you and get ready to introduce you to Jesus. So anyway I'm very happy with the responses I get with several blogs. It's obvious that God wants me to tell this story because he has anointed me but I claim no special privileges I'm no longer ordained I just tell my story but you do have to admit it's pretty cool that God answers my prayers in such spectacular ways. Some of them aren't in my book, for example the young lady by the name of Sarah who was almost killed by her husband and I had to run to the hospital to find her and I knew she was there but that doesn't stop a preacher from finding somebody in the hospital and so I found my way into the room and the family was terrified that the numbnuts husband was going to attempt to try again and I could see there thinking in that. So I prayed the very specific prayer that God would place two guardian angels by her door. Now she was in a coma for some time but when she slowly came out of it and started to speak which by the way the doctors at first thought that that would never happen, she's lifted her hand up and was whispering and her handsome brother but don't tell him. It'll go to his head. Anyway her brother leaned in close and she said quietly in a whisper there's two men in white at the door. I don't take credit for that I just say that from time to time God answers my prayer very specifically and for some reason he's still gives me insights into what's going on and hence I keep telling stories and some people are starting to believe them.

TRUMP'S FAULT

I just texted my oldest daughter. 
Also I need to get some more linisopril. I've reordered but it won't be here till May 14. Probably Trump's fault. 
Happy birthday to my only remaining son in law. Last man standing. My ex son-in-law is as romantic as a brick. Not taking sides. It is what it is.

ISRAEL NEEDS A FRIEND

My comment today on substack. 
As per my normal? Form I will say good morning first and thank you all for being part of this amazing Mental Health support group. It's 10:25 a.m. and I am so thankful that God answers specific prayers for I pray for this and it's all set up. What I see is as my favorite President has said a golden age coming although not without some birth pains, and I'm not sure where the judgment of Babylon fits in, for we, the builders of this super corrupt city on seven hills certainly qualify and we as it's being revealed have driven the economies of not just ourselves but the world. But for now, Israel definitely needs a friend and my favorite President certainly qualifies. Even the very confused opposition called the Democrat Party agrees, although their help has been very tepid except for my favorite Democrat John Fetterman. 
This is enough for now. As usual, you guys inspire me and this will become a post, first on Facebook and then on blogspot and hopefully with time on substack. Later Gators.

ABOUT SUSAN COLLINS, SENATOR FROM MAINE

I would even say a kind word about Collins, who under extreme pressure came through with a reasoned treatise and a deciding vote on Trump's impeachment. 
On the other hand, there are a few living pieces of garbage that I would not throw a lifeline to if they were sinking in a cesspool. May I mention again Bill Gates, Mitch, Adam Schiff, Hillary Clinton, and the CBS Network executives that canceled after 3 years Star Trek.

DEEP SPACE NINE

HE WHO HAS THE GOLD MAKES THE RULES 
As stated by the infamous Ferengis, on the best Star Trek series Deep Space Nine led by Avery Brooks who also costarred in Spencer for Hire as a hit man and was coincidentally an excellent jazz pianist. 
The cast of characters that co-starred with them are iconic and memorable. 
My oldest daughter and I were so moved by their characters that we decided to attend a Star Trek Convention in nearby South Bend. We came in normal attire and were extremely underdressed. Klingons in full attire were speaking Klingon. More later.

U-2 banned?

Recent discussion on my Surber Nation Mental Health Group. 
Jeremy: U-2 the band? 
Don: it was never banned. It just didn't get much air time. 
Don't forget U-2 was shot down over the Soviet Union, being piloted by Gary Powers. There was a cute cartoon of two pilots with parachutes looking at each other, and one says U-2? 
You're welcome America.

SIMILAR REASONS

BUY AND HOLD TESLA. God has his hand on Elon just like he has his hand on my favorite President for similar reasons the protection of Israel and the promotion of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
