Fatherhood by Bill Cosby
Bill Cosby wrote this in his book, Fatherhood:
Now that my father is a grandfather, he just can’t wait to give money to my kids. But when I was his kid and I asked him for fifty cents, he would tell me the story of his life. How he got up at 5 A.M. when he was seven years old and walked twenty-three miles to milk ninety cows. And the farmer for whom he worked had no bucket, so he had to squirt the milk into his little hand and then walk eight miles to the nearest can. All for 5 cents a month. The result was that I never got my 50 cents.
But now he tells my children every time he comes into the house: “Well, lets see how much money old Granddad has got for his wonderful kids.” And the minute they take money out of his hands I call them over to me and I snatch it away from them. Because that is MY money.
That is funny.

World’s First PromiseGroup
Check this story out from the bbc.
Archaeologists in Rihab, Jordan, say they have discovered a cave that could be the world’s oldest Christian church.
Dating to the period AD33-70, the underground chapel would have served as both a place of worship and a home.
It is claimed that it was originally used by a group of 70 persecuted Christians who fled from Jerusalem.
These early Christians lived and practised their faith in secrecy until the Romans embraced Christianity several hundred years later.
Littering
I put this on twitter on Memorial Day as a thought provoking matter, but I want to extend to the blogosphere.
Is it littering to leave a penny on the ground?
You drop some change. You scoop up the quarter and dimes and leave a penny that is several feet away. You are in too much of a hurry to walk over and pick up a 1 cent piece. It is worth very little, yet worth something. I know some of you are already asking…”What if everyone left their pennies behind”
Any philosophical ideas/debates?
