You Know Your God is Too Small If....
You are Bored

The ED Thanks You! (Part 1)

9/21/2023

 
The Emergency Department (ED) would like to thank the following groups of patients and caregivers for their contributions to the ED:
1. Patients and caregivers who bring lists. We know it's difficult to remember all 13 of your medications. Thank you for bringing a list!
2. Considerate patients. When you hear CODE BLUE overhead, you are the patients who ask us if we need to go. We are so grateful that you are willing to put other patients ahead of yourself.
3. Those who understand allergies. You are the ones who will clarify that you are not allergic to NSAIDs, but have kidney disease and aren't supposed to take them. Thank you! This way if you are having a heart attack, I know I can give you an aspirin which may really help your heart.

All We Like...Sheep

9/14/2023

 
But why?!
Maybe because sheep are frail and need a flock?
Or maybe it's because sheep are easily deceived by their past experiences?
It couldn't be because sheep are stubborn and slow learners?
Yeah...doesn't sound like us at all.
But at least we keep our wool clean...

All We Like...Sheep

But why?!
Maybe because sheep are self-serving, and don't know what's good for them?
Or it's because sheep are vulnerable, and easily drawn away by food?
It couldn't be because sheep need a Shepherd, could it?
Yeah...doesn't sound like us at all.
But at least we don't stink...most of the time.

Nerdy Jesus Thoughts (Part 3)

8/31/2023

 
Jesus had a belly button...
But did he have hairy ears?
Hairy ears are a Y-linked gene 
-- and girls don't have a Y chromosome --
so boys must get this gene from dad.
Just curious.

Nerdy Jesus Thoughts (Part 2)

8/24/2023

 
Jesus was born of a virgin.
But there's no reason God had to use Mary's DNA, do you think He did? 


And not that it matters --
But I bet the other half of Jesus' DNA doesn't match a man, why would it?


I think about these things...
No comments from the peanut gallery.

Nerdy Jesus Thoughts

I had this thought while walking in a graveyard.
(This is not a joke so don't laugh, 
I do some excellent thinking there :0)
In this life we will never know Jesus' DNA code --
because His grave has no body!
Praise the Lord!

WATCH OUT!

8/10/2023

 
“Watch Out for Deer” the first line of the sign read. Sensible when you are driving 80 mph on a rural highway.

“In Your Lane” the second line of the sign tried to clarify. What?! Does that mean don't look at deer in the other lane? Or maybe you are supposed to ignore deer about to jump onto the road?

Why is this even there?

My conclusion: My amusement.

Jane went to Bonita Lake!

Unfair Fruits (Part 6)

8/3/2023

 
Picture
Blueberries and blackberries are actual fruits...but why no other colors? Redberries sound good and I’d be interested in trying a turquoise berry.

The upside is that fruit never complains about our crazy naming schemes or the way God made them. They just keeping growing and getting sweeter.

Unfair Fruits (Part 5)

7/27/2023

 
It seems unkind to give dried grapes, cranberries, and plums their own special titles, but insist on calling dried apricots...dried apricots.

And why aren’t nectarines called naked peaches? Or peaches called hairy nectarines?

We have pears, but no trios, and a privileged class of fruits that are actually veggies!

Unfair Fruits (Part 4)

7/20/2023

 
Why do we always pick on the apples? Eve supposedly ate an apple and plunged the world into sin. Why not a mango or a banana?

The apple is always poisoned. Why not the pear or the peach?

We impugn apples character and call them crab apples, why not crabby plums?
