A teenage boy had just passed his driving test and inquired of his father as to when they could discuss his use of the car.
His father said he'd make a deal with his son:
'You bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible, and get your hair cut. Then we'll talk about the car.'
The boy thought about that for a moment, decided he'd settle for the offer, and they agreed on it.
After about six weeks his father said,
'Son, you've brought your grades up and I've observed that you have been studying your Bible,
but I'm disappointed you haven't had your hair cut.
The boy said,
'You know, Dad, I've been thinking about that, and I've noticed in my studies of the Bible that Samson had long hair,
John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair ~ ~ ~ and there's even strong evidence that Jesus had long hair.'
You're going to love the Dad's reply:
'Did you also notice that they all walked everywhere they went?'

Todays Quote
Birthday Girl
Beverly Sills
A happy woman is one who has no cares at all; a cheerful woman is one who has cares but doesn't let them get her down.
Beverly Sills
A primary function of art and thought is to liberate the individual from the tyranny of his culture in the environmental sense and to permit him to stand beyond it in an autonomy of perception and judgment.
Beverly Sills
Anger begins with folly, and ends with repentance.
Beverly Sills
Art is the signature of civilizations.
Beverly Sills
Attachment to spiritual things is... just as much an attachment as inordinate love of anything else.
Beverly Sills
Christians should never fail to sense the operation of an angelic glory. It forever eclipses the world of demonic powers, as the sun does a candle's light.
Beverly Sills
Everything you need you already have. You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice person on the way to someplace else. Your completeness must be understood by you and experienced in your thoughts as your own personal reality.
Beverly Sills
I lived through the garbage. I might as well dine on the caviar.
Beverly Sills
I've always tried to go a step past wherever people expected me to end up.
Beverly Sills
In youth we run into difficulties. In old age difficulties run into us.
Beverly Sills
My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.
Beverly Sills
My voice had a long, nonstop career. It deserves to be put to bed with quiet and dignity, not yanked out every once in a while to see if it can still do what it used to do. It can't.
Beverly Sills
There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.
Beverly Sills
There is a growing strength in women but it's in the forehead, not the forearm.
Beverly Sills
You don't always get what you ask for, but you never get what you don't ask for... unless it's contagious!
Beverly Sills
You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try.
