So begin your prayers by praying for those closest to you. They are the easiest to remember. To pray for our loved ones is, as C. S. Lewis once said, a 'sweet duty.' 2.

I recently received this email which contained a link to the following YouTube video. It shows the Bob and Tom radio show in Canada creating a Parody song. According to the description, "Canadian comedian Greg Morton weighs in on the current financial crisis and how President Obama plans to get us out of it." It's been up since April, so they probably aren't going to "pull" it off YouTube.

The caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you protest that you never received a summons for jury duty, the scammer asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information

FDA approves sale of milk and meat from cloned cows

Unfortunately, the FDA does not require the labeling of such products as coming from cloned animals, nor does it require any sort of tracking of the offspring of cloned animals. Without this

One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class was walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, 'Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd.' I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friends tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my shoulders
