WELCOME TO THE SHOW!

Hi. (Sorry, that’s about all I have the energy for right now.)



BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY

“I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge -- that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” --Ephesians 3:17-19


The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights. — Habakkuk 3:19

HEARTLIGHT VERSE & THOUGHT

Since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. — Colossians 1:9


Thought: When we hear of Christians in other places, especially where circumstances and times are difficult, or they are new in the Faith, let's intentionally and purposefully pray this prayer for them!
Prayer: Loving Father please bless my brothers and sisters in Christ all over the world. Strengthen those under attack and facing oppression. Mature those new to your family. Enlighten those who are facing doubt and uncertainty. Please bless your people today with peace. In Jesus' name I ask it. Amen.
The Thoughts and Prayers for Today's Verse are written by Phil Ware. You can email questions or comments to phil@heartlight.org.

SECRETS OF THE UNIVERSE

Why do pigeons so easily adapt to city living?
One could speculate that it's because cities have the greatest concentration of automobiles and window ledges. The pigeon's mission in life is to befoul these objects, and city living gives them a clear shot at many targets -a turkey shoot, you might say. Those who study such things, though, have a different view of the matter. They point out that pigeons have a long history of domestication. Being descended from tame birds makes them used to always having people around. These experts also observe that pigeons appear to have originated in areas of North Africa characterized by cliffs. Tall buildings thus remind them of their ancestral homes. Anyway, whoever comes up with a definitive answer will have scored a real coo--uh, coup.

NEW NEWS KICKERS…

Senator Ted Cruz says if he's elected president, he plans to hold a Cuban pig roast on White House lawn. *** Which is a terrible thing to say about Raul Castro.


A Florida couple are accused of giving their teenage daughters cocaine and marijuana if they went to school and did household chores.  *** Remember when your allowance was only like five bucks a week?  Boy have times changed.  
Pizza Hut is set to begin selling a pizza with 28-hot dogs stuffed in the crust.  *** Congratulations, Pizza Hut – you just out-trailer-trashed yourself.  
A 60-year-old Massachusetts woman has pleaded not guilty to running a crack cocaine delivery service from her pickup truck.  *** Sounds like a pickup and delivery service to me. 

NEWS KICKER EVERGREENS…

Bottled water may not be any healthier or safer than tap water, according to Florida-based sports nutritionist and dietician CynthiaSass, who says that 25% of bottled water on store shelves is actually just repackaged tap water. A recent Gallup poll found that we drink bottled water because we think it is purer than tap water, tastes better and is more convenient.  ***MARLAR: More convenient?  What can be more convenient than walking outside and drinking from the hose?


Smoking damages the body in minutes rather than years, according to research in the US.  The report, published in Chemical Research in Toxicology, shows that chemicals which cause cancer form rapidly after smoking.  Scientists involved in the small-scale study described the results as a stark warning to people considering smoking.  The long term impact of smoking, from heart disease to a range of cancers, is well known. This study suggests the damage begins just moments after the first cigarette is smoked.  ***MARLAR: In fact, cigarettes are so dangerous that they will now be banned from even being looked at without proper I.D. 
British scientists have developed a new melt-proof recipe for chocolate. The heat-tolerant chocolate, developed by Cadbury engineers, remains solid even when exposed to temperatures in excess of 104 degrees (40 degrees Celsius) for more than three hours.  ***MARLAR: It doesn't melt in your mouth or your hands! It won't melt at 104 degrees – but our own body temperature is 98.6.  That means it won't melt in our mouths either – unless we have a really bad fever.  At which point, do we really need chocolate? 
So ladies, how do you make him fall in love? Take him on a rollercoaster ride. Or bungee-jumping. Or whitewater rafting. Literally. It turns out that stomach flips, adrenaline and screams associated with any white-knuckle event create a rush of the hormone that makes us fall in love, according to research from Richard Robinson, author of "Why the One You Fancy Never Fancies You." That hormone is called phenylethylamine. An important component in the science of attraction, it is secreted when you see someone you really like.  ***MARLAR: I fell in love with my wife Robin from the adrenaline rush of being in the passenger seat when she was driving.  My heart is still racing.

MOMENT OF DUH

What do you do for a man who has cancer?  Fire him from his job, of course!

54-year-old Ronald Michalowicz is a fire inspector for Bedford Park, Illinois. That is he WAS a fire inspector. He was fired after 28 years on the job -- about one year shy of retirement -- for violating the town rules against soliciting charitable contributions. But get this -- the solicitation was initiated by other people to help pay for Ronald's treatment for tongue cancer, which was thought by doctors to be quickly fatal. However, Ronald got his miracle, beat the odds, and survived after chemotherapy. So he returned to work. But even though a town official, having noted Ron's near-terminal condition earlier, approved the solicitation, when he came back to work other officials insisted on enforcing the no-solicitation rule and had him fired! Heartless jerks.  He has rightfully sued for wrongful discharge.

THE FILES OF LAW & DISORDER

What people sometimes fail to realize is that it isn't important whether the police get their man. It's only important that the police get A man.
FILE #1: Brian Mulligan was arrested on a driving charge. He spent 20 hours in a police cell before being driven 150 miles for a court appearance. You see, he had the same name as a man on an arrest warrant. His address and date of birth did not match but it was close enough for the police. Never mind the fact that they had the wrong man. It was close enough for the Greater Manchester Police, but not close enough for the courts who released him because he was, after all, the wrong man. So they let him go, 150 miles from home, with no means to return home. He had to hitch a ride. Needless to say, he's upset... and he's suing. I would too.
FILE #2: When rescue crews arrived at McCail's home in Akron, Ohio, after a series of confusing phone calls, they did not find a medical emergency. But they did find a batch of newborn puppies. McCail delivered 13 healthy puppies on her own. In the process, authorities say she abused the 911 emergency system meant to save human lives. "That means they can't respond to another call that may be in their immediate vicinity," said Lt. Alan Bragg of the Akron Fire Department. "And that call could be for something that's very serious." McCail is now facing criminal charges for calling in a false alarm. "We're trained to save human lives, not animal lives," Bragg said. "Woman in labor? Yes, we do [that]. Dogs, no."
FILE #3: An Illinois man robbed a gas station and then fled, well maybe 'fled' is not a good word, who slowly, very slowly, drove off in an 18-wheel tractor-trailer, which also had his name on the door. He drove away so slowly, in fact, that the manager had time to call the police and get into her own car and tail him, even having to slow down at times so she wouldn't bump into him. Easy day for the Illinois police.
STRANGE LAW: In Pueblo, Colorado, it is illegal to let a dandelion grow within city limits.

THIS IS YOUR BRAIN ON DRUGS

A man is acquitted of drunk-driving because he was too drunk!

In August, a Portland, Ore., jury acquitted drunk-driving defendant Robert Lee Buskirk after a judge accepted his argument that incriminating statements he made at the scene not be used against him because he was so drunk he didn't know what he was doing when he waived his "Miranda" rights.

TABLOID MATCH GAME

MAD ______ ON THE LOOSE! (DENTIST)

El Dentista is on the loose in New Mexico – and he’s coming after your teeth!

Police say Alejandro Colinas, known as El Dentista, is attacking citizens in New Mexico and cleaning their teeth, giving them root canals, and extracting wisdom teeth.

Colinas has been practicing out of his car for five years. Officers found portable drill, teeth molds and prescription drugs scattered around the vehicle

El Dentista has attacked hundreds of citizens.  In public places, he puts a gas mask over their face and drags them to his car where he works on their teeth.

It started with Colinas operating as a ‘mobile dentist’ out of his small sedan around Santa Fe.  But soon he realized that many people did not take care of their teeth properly and “that really set him off.”

“Colinas started attacking people and making sure that they had their cavity filled and that they understood the importance of good hygiene,” said Sgt. John Malley.  ”He’s sort of a Robin Hood of dentists.  He takes bad teeth and makes them good.  Unfortunately, he’s also attacking people and operating on their teeth without their permission.”

Authorities are asking all victims of a man known as ‘El Dentista’ to file a report.

One woman told investigators she had teeth removed by Kestler but he didn’t come through with replacements.

Celina Westervelt, a spokeswoman for the Santa Fe Police Department, described the conditions inside Kestler’s dental practice on wheels as ‘disgusting,’ explaining that the car was filled with ‘leftover residual materials.’

Among the items seized from the red Chevy sedan were teeth molds scattered around the interior and prescription drugs, including Lidocane, Epinephrine, Septocaine and Disprospan.

Colinas was arrested but escaped from jail using a dentist drill he had in his pants.   If you see him in Santa Fe – cover your mouth and run!

JOKE #1

Two elderly gentlemen were visiting. "I guess you're never too old," the first one boasted. "Why just yesterday a pretty college girl said she'd be interested in dating me but to be perfectly honest, I don't quite understand it."

"Well," said his friend, "you have to remember that nowadays women are more aggressive. They don't mind being the one to ask."

"No, I don't think it's that."

"Well, maybe you remind her of her father."

"No, it's not that either.  When she mentioned that she wanted to date me, she also said something about Carbon 14."


JOKE #2

Three seniors were discussing the problems of getting older. One said, "Sometimes I catch myself with a jar of mayonnaise in my hand in front of the refrigerator and can't remember whether I need to put it away, or start making a sandwich."

The second senior chimed in, "Yes, sometimes I find myself on the landing of the stairs and can't remember whether I was on my way up or on my way down."

The third one responded, "Well, I'm glad I don't have that problem---knock on wood. "She rapped her knuckles on the table, pause for few seconds and then said, "That must be the door, I'll get it." 


JOKE #3

It was Mickey's first night in the penitentiary. All of the inmates were in their cells and he was trying to become a bit more comfortable with his meager surroundings. As he leaned against the bars at the front of his cell, Mickey heard a voice call out "44" and the whole cell block erupted into laughter!

Another voice called "16" and again there was laughter.

A third voice called "62" which was followed by laughter throughout the block.

Mickey didn't know what was going on so he rapped on his cell wall.

"Yeah, whaddaya want?" came the gruff reply from next door.

"What's going on, here?" asked Mickey.

"Well," said the other inmate, "down in the prison library there's only one joke book. We've all read the book so many times that we don't waste time telling the joke, we just call out it's number."

So the next day Mickey went down to the library and, sure enough, found the yellowed, dog-eared joke book and read it from cover to cover.

That night, wanting to be part of the group, Mickey confidently called out "44" and everyone laughed! He tried calling "16" and "62" and again there were peals of laughter. Then he called 57, and the halls rang with laughter.

After several minutes, one prisoner was still rolling on the floor laughing. More minutes - still laughing.

Mickey rapped on the cell wall.

"Yeah, waddaya want?" asked the other inmate.

"I don't understand it," asked Mickey, "Why is Tommy STILL laughing?"

"Well," said the gruff inmate, "He'd never heard that one before!"

USELESS FACTS

For the first time, lifeguards in Sydney, Australia, will be allowed to fine swimmers who disobey orders and do things like swim outside designated safe surfing sections on beaches. ***MARLAR: The fines range from $32 for swimming outside the flagged areas to $118 for singing Beach Boys songs without a clear understanding of four-part harmony.


Norway struck an unprecedented blow for sexual equality when the government said it would force companies to guarantee that women could be in board meetings. ***MARLAR: Male board members unanimously agreed, and then immediately asked the women to bring them coffee and Danishes.

A FATHER'S NOTE TO PROSPECTIVE SUITORS

  • Rule One: If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.

  • Rule Two: You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.

  • Rule Three: I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue, so I propose this compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object. However, in order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.

  • Rule Four: I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without utilizing a "barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate: when it comes to sex, I am thebarrier, and I will kill you.

  • Rule Five: As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget. If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge e. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like changing the oil in my car?

  • Rule Six: The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter: Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool. Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns within eyesight. Places where there is darkness. Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness. Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka zipped up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies which feature chainsaws are okay. Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.

  • Rule Seven: Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a pot-bellied, balding, middle-aged, dim-witted has-been. But on issues relating to my daughter, I am all-knowing!



IT MUST BE TRUE BECAUSE I HEARD IT ON THE RADIO!

WRONG TURN

An elderly couple has been found after being missing for six days... turned out they were just lost.

We've all been on a road trip and taken a wrong turn, right? Or maybe you know where you're going, but didn't realize that there was going to be construction and that you'd have to take a detour. It takes a little longer to get to our destination, and it's a bit annoying, but it doesn't cause a huge problem in our lives... right? That's not the case for Albert Boveroux and Marie Schellings. Albert and Marie were on their way to go see some local waterfalls about 46 miles from their home when they ran across some construction, diverting traffic. Somehow, they got lost, ended up in Germany, couldn't figure out the traffic signs, and were lost for almost an entire week! For six days they did nothing but drive in their car, eat their picnic lunch, drink bottled water, and stop for gas. I know what you're thinking... obviously it was Albert that was driving. He'd stop for gas, but asking directions was apparently out of the question. Typical man driver, right? Well, in his defense, you should probably know that he had no idea how to speak German, and neither did Marie.

QUOTES ABOUT DADS

  • "It doesn't matter who my father was; it matters who I remember he was." -- Anne Sexton

  • "I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection." -- Sigmund Freud

  • "A father is a guy who has snapshots in his wallet where his money used to be." – Unknown

  • "A man knows when he is growing old because he begins to look like his father." -- Gabriel Garcia Marquez

  • "If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right." -- Bill Cosby

  • "If my son is getting half as much out of college as the college is getting out of me, he'll be a success." -- Unknown



DRIVE TIME DEVOTIONAL

Do you scare easily?

Someone has written that the words "Do not be afraid" appear 366 times in the Bible in some form. That's one for each day of the year, with one left over for leap year! Those words of encouragement and exhortation meant a lot to those who received them, including Mary (Luke 1:30), Joseph (Matthew 1:20), and the shepherds who heard the angel's announcement of Christ's birth (Luke 2:10).

Five-year-old Nathan had to go to the doctor. As they walked back to the examining room, his mother whispered to him, "Don't be afraid."

Abby was beside her grandfather as they started to cross a busy street. "Nothing to worry about," he reassured her.

Max was headed off to kindergarten on the big yellow bus. "Don't worry," his mom said. "You'll be safe."

In each instance adults reached down and the children reached up, and they held hands as they faced the realities of life together.

In Isaiah, chapter 41, God had been reassuring Israel that even though they were going to go through rough times, He would be with them. Then He said of Himself, "I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand" (Isaiah 41:13). His touch, His presence, His encouragement would carry His beloved people Israel through the difficult times before them.

The same is true for us. When we are facing a few rough days of exams or car trouble or the flu or work (what student hasn't had days or weeks like this?), it's God's powerful, large hand that reaches down to where our small hands can reach up and grasp His. Then He walks with us all the way.

When by faith you're holding hands with the Lord of the universe, you do not need to be afraid.

I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand. --Isaiah 41:13

MAYBE HE RUNS THE COMPUTER’S TREADMILL?

A computer engineer has found a live mouse inside a faulty PC's hard drive. Gary Taylor, of Coppull, Lancashire, says the creature caused the machine to short circuit by chewing through wires to make a nest. He thinks the rodent may have crawled into the computer through a tiny hole at the back. The engineer said he looked inside the computer and saw a little face staring back. Mr Taylor, who runs Taylormade Computer Services, cleaned the computer out and set the mouse free. ***MARLAR: Don’t all computers use a mouse?

JUST FOR FUN

T-REX NO MORE?

When is a Tyrannosaurus Rex not a Tyrannosaurus Rex?…

…When it’s Manospondylus gigas! The good old T-Rex might be losing his familiar name. Some T-Rex bones unearthed in South Dakota could be part of a fossil found in 1892, before the T-Rex was named. According to the rules of paleontology, the first person to find it names it, and the man who found that skeleton called it "Manospondylus gigas," which means "giant, thin vertebrae." "Tyrannosaurus Rex," by the way, is Latin for "tyrant lizard king." ***MARLAR: T-Rex’s everywhere are already agonizing over all the potential paperwork… getting their driver’s license changed, their social security cards, monogrammed shirts, etc. Either that, or they’ll go by "The Dinosaur Formally Known as Tyrannosaurus Rex".

GET A GOOD NIGHT OF SLEEP

Find information on how to sleep better online from the National Sleep Foundation. http://www.sleepfoundation.org/

Here are some simple tips to beat insomnia and get a good night's sleep:


  • Do something dull before retiring. Do your taxes, read a phone book, sort your laundry. A little of this boredom goes a long way toward promoting sleep.

  • Drink milk before bedtime. Milk contains substance that relax the body. And the great news is it doesn't even have to be warm to be effective. Warm it only if you like that way.

  • Keep the bedroom dark. Light interferes with sleep. Even when your eyes are closed, they still perceive light. Avoid nightlights and illuminated clock dials, and close the shades if light from the outside comes through the window.

  • Keep the bedroom cool and the bed warm. The ideal sleeping situation is to be bundled warmly in a snug bed in a room that's well ventilated and a little bit chilly.

  • Enjoy herbal tea before bed -- but not too much of it. Many people sip relaxing teas made from chamomile, passionflower, hawthorn and other herbs to help them get their rest. But remember, drinking too much of any liquid before bedtime can have the opposite effect, particularly if you have a sensitive bladder.

  • Use your bed for only one thing: sleep. If you like to read yourself to sleep, or knit or work puzzles, do these activities in a favorite chair or sofa. We want our minds to associate bed with sleep.



TOTALLY OUTRAGEOUS!

(Mondays Only)

Imaging being told you can’t graduate, because during your graduation you threw your cap into the air!

(From 2013) Administrators have had a change of heart after withholding diplomas from an entire graduating class because students defied instructions not to toss their caps in the air at graduation.  Ridgewood High School in Norridge, a suburb of Chicago, referred to the cap-tossing at the ceremony on a Tuesday as "disrespectful and insubordinate behavior.”  (Disrespectful?  Insubordinate?  Have these people never attended a high school graduation before?  It’s tradition!)  By that Thursday morning, officials had reversed course, saying it had "re-thought" its policy and would be sending out diplomas immediately.  Ridgewood High School is known as the home of the Rebels.  ***MARLAR: You’re school is the home of THE REBELS, and it surprises you that the student body defied you?  Maybe the educators need to go back to school and learn how to use a dictionary.  If they’d looked up the word “rebel”, maybe they wouldn’t have been so shocked at the results.

It took Connie Vitolo 95 years, but she finally found her calling. According to the Charisma News article, it wasn't that long ago that Mrs. Vitolo didn't care whether she lived or died. It was during that dark time that her daughter saw an ad on a bulletin board stating that volunteers were needed to make items for orphans in India. And with that ad, Connie found her purpose. Over the past year she had made 12 blankets for the orphanage and says she prays over each one.

Some people spend their entire lives trying to escape poverty. According to Mission Network News, one Gospel for Asia preacher did escape but now is going back. Pastor Marty grew up under a bridge in the slums of Mumbai, India. He was able to escape the grip of poverty, eventually enrolling in Bible college to become a pastor, but he never forgot the suffering of his childhood. After graduation, Marty returned to the slums. Now, he is sharing Jesus and meeting the same needs he himself once faced.
