Father! — to God himself we cannot give a holier name. ~William Wordsworth.
I had planned a post with some family pictures. But my iPhone won't download my pictures into my computer. So I asked the Sweetman when I could download some data from my phone.
He says, "I don't know."
"What do you mean you don't know?"
He shrugs.
"When does the billing cycle start and end?"
"I don't know."
"But you pay the bill."
"I still don't know."
I say, "OY VEY!"
I figured I could put my blog post together via my iPhone. The way our account has been set up is more than annoying. The Sweetman gets unlimited everything while me, the writer, gets the limits. What a load! Right?
Hope everyone had a Happy Father's Day!
Hugs and chocolate,
Shelly
See you on Thursday.

An On-Line Novel: The Immoral -One of the Guys
One of the Guys
The girl’s words pricked Ronald to his very soul. How
could she tell? It had to be impossible. He looked like any other
fourteen-year-old guy. Rolling back his shoulders, he strutted toward her.
“What are you doing?” Cassandra grabbed his elbow
from behind. “You don’t want to get caught and be suspended on your first day.”
Leanne glanced down her nose at his BFF.
Ronald watched a grin slink across the principal’s
daughter's face. It twisted her angelic appearance. “Don’t worry. Everything will be fine.” He yanked his arm away from
Cassandra and made his way to the picnic table. There, he bent to the left and
peered up the girl’s skirt. White panties. They were no big deal. The undies
resembled some his mom wore.
Cassandra huffed from behind.
He knew she was disappointed in him. But what she didn’t
know was that he needed to keep a secret that she didn’t even know. He had to
prove that he was just one of the guys.

Conspiracy Theories: The Origins of the New World Order and Nimrod
Today, I thought I'd write about the possible origins of the New World Order. Some say it began with Nimrod and the Tower of Babel. The concept is nothing new. Like King Solomon once wrote, "There's nothing new under the sun."
Pics from the Internet
Genesis 10:8 - 10 b tells us: Kush fathered Nimrod, who was the first powerful ruler on earth. He was a nighty hunter before Adonai-this is why people say, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Adonai. His kingdom began with Babel, Erekh, Akkad, and Kalneh, in the land of Shinar. Ashur (Nimrod) went out from that land and built Ninveh and Kelach-the great city. The Complete Jewish Bible
Nimrod is known to be the first anti-Christ. His name means "The Rebel." His goal was to build a tower to reach the throne of God. He wanted to be God's equal. He even wanted to be God.
Those of us who are familiar with the Book of Jasher know that Nimrod was raised to be a spoiled brat. Cush had him in his old age and 'loved him exceedingly'.
Also, Cush was the son of Ham and Ham was the son of Noah. And during the time that Noah was moving out of the Ark, Ham stole something special. He took the garments that God had made for Adam and Eve after they were deceived by the serpent.
In the Book of Jasher, chapter 7, you will read that Ham gave these garments to Cush in secret. So Cush passed them onto Nimrod. After he turned twenty, he put these garments on. These clothes gave him 'might and strength'. He became a famous warrior and people looked up to him, eventually making him king.
Jasher 7: 45-47 "And all the nations and tongues heard of his fame, and they gathered themselves to him, and they bowed down to the earth, and they brought him offerings, and became their lord and king , and they all dwelt with him in the city at Shinar, and Nimrod reigned in the earth over all the sons of Noah, and they were all under his power and counsel.
And all the earth was one tongue and words of union, but Nimrod did not go in the ways of the Lord, and he was more wicked than all the men that were before him, from the days of the flood until those days.
And he made gods of wood and stone, and he bowed down to them, and he rebelled against the Lord, and taught all his subjects and the people of the earth his wicked ways...et al" The Books of Enoch, Jubilees, and Jasher
You can read more about Nimrod in Genesis 11.
I find it interesting that he obviously had a big ego and had pretty much made himself a god. This sounds a little like Lucifer. But he's a whole other post.
Before I go, thought I'd post this video for you all. This guy makes the story of Nimrod and the Tower of Babel all the more interesting.
Hope everyone has a great week. See you on Thursday when I post another chapter to The Immoral.
Hugs and chocolate, all!

An On-Line Novel: The Immoral- Cleavage
I know I was supposed to post this yesterday. Sorry for being late with this. Lots of stuff going on.
Cleavage
“We’re here,” her mom said, sounding cheery.
“Nervous?”
Cassandra blew out a puff air that she had sucked in
as her mom drove them into the school parking lot. “A little.” She didn’t want
her mom to give her one of her pep-talks in her mimicked Mini-Mouse voice. They
were so annoying, making her feel like she was five all over again.
“Well, I was too on my first day of high school.”
She patted her daughter’s left thigh. “But you should be alright. I said a few
prayers for you this morning.” She withdrew her hand from her daughter and
placed it on the automatic shift between them, slowing the speed of the car. After,
she braked few feet from where Ronald sat and put it into park.
“Thanks, mom.” Cassandra glanced out the windshield.
Ronald sat all by himself on a bench while a group of boys and one girl sat
around a picnic bench in front of a steel building with giant double red doors.
Guess the kids aren’t all that friendly. Poor Ronnie. She curled her fingers
around the lever on the passenger door, lifted, and pushed it open.
Ronald rose from the bench and waved.
“Hi, Ronnie,” her mom hollered from her window, and to Cassandra she
said, “I’ll be here at three-thirty to pick you both up.”
Cassandra slid out of her seat and got to her feet hurriedly
as though to avoid the anticipated motivational speech. Her book bag smacked at her
side. “Ow!” The thing felt heavy and awkward. She and it had something in
common. She hoped that her outfit didn’t make her look too big.
The kids at the bench glanced her way for thirty
seconds, said something to each other, and then let out a round of laughs.
“Let me take that.” Ronnie raced toward her and slid
the book bag from her shoulder.
“Thank you.”
“No problem. I’m glad you finally got here.”
Cassandra’s mom beeped her horn and backed out of
the drive. She honked and waved one last time before she slowly drove the car
to a stop sign.
Both teens, side by side, waved and waited for her mom's car to pull into traffic.
“So are the kids nice?” Cassandra wanted to know
before she walked up to them. They certainly didn’t appear to be a gracious welcoming
committee. None of them were rushing to introduce themselves. They had went
back to whatever it was they doing before they looked at her and busted out
laughing.
Ronald shrugged. “Don’t know. I was waiting for you
to come.”
“We might as well get this over with.” She walked
ahead of him dreading the initial introduction.
Her BFF followed in her wake.
When she reached the picnic table, she extended her
hand toward the girl sitting on the edge of a wooden bench. “Hi, I’m Sassie…
and this is Ronnie.”
Ronald nodded, giving her small smile. “Nice to meet
you.”
Light blue eyes peered out of a mop of blonde curls.
Her lips curled into a soft smile. She placed her hand gently into Cassandra’s
and then pulled it back. “I’m, Leanne Ray, the principle’s daughter.” A strong
Georgian drawl oozed all over her words. The girl flashed a gaze from the
top of Cassandra’s head, then to her midriff all the way to her shoes. After, she snapped her head in Ronald's direction. "Likewise."
The boys at the table guffawed.
“You
two look a little stiff.” Leanne reached for the top button of her blouse and
un-did it, and loosened two more. It was enough to show what small
amount of cleavage she had.
Cassandra gasped. Ronald said nothing.
The four young men at the table punched each other’s
shoulders, and snickered.
“Look,” the girl said, standing while hiking her
skirt above her knees. “How about a game to break in the newbies?” After, she
stepped onto the bench and made her way to the middle of the picnic table. “What
color are my panties?”
Cassandra and Ronald glanced around the premises,
both hoping a teacher or some other adult would come.
Each of the four teens craned their heads upward. Their
mouths fell open as they gawked up her skirt.
“You see,” Leanne said, turning her attention to
Cassandra. “I may be the principal’s daughter. But I’m no prude. Are you?” And
to Ronald, she said, “Well...aren't you going to look? What? Are you gay or something?"

Conspiracy Theories: The New World Order
Over the next few months, I figured I'd write about the New World Order. Personally, I don't believe its another CONSPIRACY THEORY. Everything happening as of late is quite blatant and in our faces. Sadly, most people don't see it while others know its there but prefer to stick their heads in the sand.
If you're a history buff, you'll be able to find quotes by all the different players who were or have been busy putting together this atrocity. Not to mention, the Bible talks about this New World Order in the Books of Daniel and Revelation.
America is definitely a big player and has been since it became a Democracy, in 1775, which by the way is always debatable.
I still have a ton of research to do on this topic. It has grown into a giant bushy tree. There are so many layers to this giant onion and ties in with what we see and hear coming out of our televisions and radios. So for this post I'll be posting a few quotes.

An On-Line Novel: The Immoral: Insecurities
Cassandra stood in front of her bedroom mirror,
smoothing her plaid skirt out over and over. She moved sideways and sucked in her
stomach as tight as she could. It nearly suffocated her doing so. As she let
the air out her belly bulged. After, she shifted herself around and glanced
over her shoulder at her backside. Bubble-butt. Hiroshima-hips. The fatty. The
voices played over and over in her head. She fisted her hands and pounded her
hips. Ronnie had told her once that if she’d beat them, it would break up the
fatty cells. He had read an article in one of his mother’s Cosmopolitan
magazines.
“Sassie!” her mother called.
“Yes!” she hollered back, still staring at her
backend, thrashing on her hips. Her diet plan had failed again. They always
did. She’d have to try something different. Slimfast maybe. It should be okay
for someone my age. The commercial says it’s full of vitamins.
“We need to go. It’s seven-thirty. I can’t be late
for my shift.” Her mom was a registered nurse for a nursing home. She went into
work early Monday through Friday and was always home by the time Cassandra got
home from school.
Cassandra spun around to face the mirror again before
scooping up her book bag. At least her curly hair looked alright and she hadn’t
had a break out in a long time. Maybe no one will notice my weight. It’s a
Christian school. Everyone should be cool with me she told herself.
***
Ronald glanced out the windshield as his stepfather
pulled into the Baptist school’s parking lot. Three boys and girl sat at a
picnic table under a large tree full of moss. He scanned beyond them, hoping to
see Cassandra. But she wasn’t there from what he could see. His shoulders
slumped and the pit in his stomach felt as if it would swallow him from the
inside out.
“What’s the matter, little Ronnie?” his stepfather smacked
his shoulder. “Afraid?”
He didn’t answer, grabbed the car handle, and pushed
the door open. Hesitantly, he slid out of the seat and got to his feet, staring
straight ahead. He figured if he ignored the head cheese he’d leave or melt
away. Maybe he’ll crash his car somewhere today and die. That would’ve been
fine with him. God knows he’s not been a real father figure in my life.
“Hey! Aren’t you gonna say good bye?” His stepfather
sounded pathetic, kind of whiney. The guy has feelings?
Ronald rolled his eyes. “Bye.”
“Make sure you do what you can to walk like a man,
girly-boy.” Those were his stepdad’s last words before he peeled out of the
parking lot.
The kids at the picnic table all looked in his
direction.
A lump grew in the bottom of his throat and he
rolled his shoulders back. He took his stepfather’s advice to act like a man
and puffed out his chest. Think John Wayne, he thought. It would be a great
travesty if these kids figured out his secret.

Conspiracy Theories: On Behalf of the Duggars
I debated whether or not to write about the Duggars. I love their show. People who have 19 kids are either cuckoo or awesome. I have 5 and peeps think I'm insane. Whatever... This isn't why I decided to write this post.
Honestly, I feel bad for the entire family. Yes, the oldest son did some nasty things to his sisters and another girl between 2002 and 2003. He was 14 and 15 at the time. And Josh isn't hiding what he did either like a Weiner or other celebrities who have down something sexually immoral. Sadly, this is something that was taken care of a while ago whether the authorities did the right thing or not.
I guess what I want to say here is, we all have skeletons in our closets. Some of us have more than one closet full. I have a few of my own. During my teen years, I was a moron. In my twenties, I was half a moron. And even in my thirties and forties, I've had moments where I've reverted back to that moronic-state. I have several lists of sins. Trust me.
And every family has problems. I know I've shared issues on this blog about my own. Daughters number 3 and 4 struggle with drug addiction. When one appears to be doing well the other one falls completely off the wagon into the never-ending-addiction-abyss. Believe me, we all have something we're not proud of from our pasts and within our own families.
The Bible says, in Acts 13:22, that King David was a man after His (God's) own heart. But later, this man had an adulterous affair with Bathsheba, got her pregnant, and then had her husband killed in battle to cover up what he had done. But the cool thing is, God saw it all and spoke to David through a prophet.
This brought David to repentance and God forgave him. But because of his sins he experienced a lot of heartache regarding his own children. The child he conceived through adultery died. Later in life, his son Amnon raped his daughter Tamar, the sister of Absalom. And Absalom avenged his sister's rape by murdering Amnon. He also tried to have his own father killed so he could become king.
We all sin. We all fall short. We all screw up. And we all have consequences to pay even after God forgives us.
But this whole thing irks me about how the media is handling it. Is it because Josh and his family are confessing CHRISTIANS? What if Bruce Jenner had done this when he was a 14 year-old? Would the media go after him?
Are the masses who sit in front of the boob-tube going to see every Christian as a child-molester now? Is this one more skeam to paint Christians in a bad light?
I've really been thinking long and hard about this only because so much has been happening to Christians here in America and around the world. Even our military men and women get fired for having Bibles and scripture verses on their computer screens. And of course, overseas, Christians are being crucified, burned alive, and beheaded.
What is going on here?
Anyway, before I go I'll leave you some quotes from the Bible.
Matthew 6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your father forgive your trespasses.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.
