Information is something we have gotten accustomed to reading, hearing, and seeing a lot of every day. So here I am in my little corner of Lancaster County, PA and I think to myself, "Why don't I do my part to flood your world with information as well." Some of the information will be intentionally comical. For example, when I give you a "useless fact" from the "book of useless information" and then proceed to make fun of it using various methods (making up a story, or creating a straw man from it, or some other sundry method for evoking a bark of laughter). Other times, I'll give you the information and make a spiritual lesson out of it perhaps even including a scriptural reference or two. I might even offer this piece of information and simply let you ponder the greater implications to your life and world. Regardless of the method used, my purpose is to have fun, increase our learning together, and to enjoy this short time we all have on this earth. Let's see how things go and take it from there. Who knows, I may never write a post like this again if the responses I get are so outraged. Then again, if you respond positively, I may be encouraged to continue my silly tirades.

Apparently, "George Washington was deathly afraid of being buried alive. After he died, he wanted to be laid out for three days just to be sure he was dead." Apart from the pun in this tidbit, I can't help make this one comical. I'm sure you probably found this out after the fact George, but when you're gone you're gone. Letting you lie around for three days would only enforce this fact by the assault you unleashed on our olfactory senses. Put bluntly, Yous would stink to high heeaaven attt that point! In all seriousness though, I hope to see you some day. Sincerely, me.
