They Think I'm A Child
They think I’m a child, but I’m already about the age of Mary when God called upon her to carry the Lord Jesus into this world.  I think there is something wrong with a society that tries to keep its people in a child-like state well into their 20’s.  I have culpability.  I can be tried as an adult for certain crimes.  Why can’t society see me as worthy of honor if I am...

Inflation Illustrated
Imagine we have two farmers: Farmer John and Farmer Pickles.  They both have a barns full of hay bales from their previous harvest.  They both take a bale each day to the market and trade if for a loaf of bread.  And this is the extent of their work for that season because they had a very hard summer.  Just one bale is taken into town each day by wheelbarrow which is traded for a loaf of bread.  ...

A Song of Sixpence
Before we had TV and the Internet, people would amuse themselves with rhyme and song. But they actually did much more than that. Wouldn’t it get boring just singing and rhyming all day, even if that was your only option? If you divide one pound sterling (british currency) into 40 pieces, each piece is called a sixpence. Sixpence was a coin used for 450 years in England. They used to be made...

Are we "Alongside Night?"
“Alongside Night” is a book by J. Neil Schulman about a not-so-distant future that predicted (from the standpoint of 1979) the collapse of the United States government. A lot of people are talking about this book because of the predictions and ideas offered by the author. So are we Alongside Night?  I’m sure there are a lot of blog posts that ask this these days.  Schulman...

Happy Birthday to ME!
It is really nice to now be 12!  But I still can’t join Facebook. Anyways, I’m having fun with all these people I’ve met on the internet.  And Obama is a dream (don’t tell my dad. He hates him, uh-oh I forgot he reads my blog oh well).   So today we went to the aquarium for my birthday.  It was pretty fun. But it’s my first birthday without mom, so it still felt like...

Pandora
Here’s my Pandora account: http://pandora.com/people/j.mckenzie97  Yes, I had to lie about my age in order to sign up.  But even if I was 12, they still wouldn’t let me sign up like they say for 8 months after that because there’s no place to put the month!  So I told them I was 111 years old and they let me in.  I’ll change it later.

Wretched Little Girl
I am going to be a good girl today.  But, everyday I try and I want to be a good girl, but I can’t do it. I can’t be a good girl.  Because there is only one person who can ever help me to be good: Jesus. The only person who would ever help me be a good girl is Jesus Christ. I am a sinner, and I cannot control my sinful nature.  I wanted to be good but I can not, instead I do things...

At Shooting Range #1 of #3
I’m on the shooting range performing drills with Tactical Response.  That particular pistol in the video is not mine.  I have a Taurus PT609 Titanium but we were having some problems with it so the instuctors let me use one of their Glock 19s.

Orange Colored Snack
My snack has a vibrant orange color.  It is crunchy and noisy when I eat it.  It is a little sweet but not that sweet because it is a vegetable.  Someone pulled it out of the ground before the flowers bloomed.  Either a person did or it was machine, I’m not sure.  I bet you’ve never seen its flowers.  It was gathered into bunches after harvest and rubber bands were wrapped around the...

Lovely Christmas Pictures
I can’t believe how beautiful these pictures are: http://reflectionof.me/nothing-better-to-capture-thes I just had to point them out.  Since I want to be a writer, I feel very bad about being unable to express what is so great about these pictures.  It only comes out as simple ideas that make me break down into tears.  If only the tears would stay ideas.   Posted via email from McKenzie...

Henry Clay
One of my favorite historical figures is Henry Clay.  There is an intuitive perception about [Henry Clay], that seems to see & understand at a glance, and a winning fascination in his manners that will suffer none to be his enemies who associate with him.  When I look upon his manly & bold countenance, & meet his frank eloquent eye, I feel an emotion little short of enthusiasm in his...

Log Cabins
I was thinking how fun it would be to live in a log cabin.  They can build them so they are pretty draft proof.  Supposedly, early settlers would build them by shaving the sides of the log.  They would fit exactly on top of the previous log which kept out the smallest draft.  It would still be pretty cold during the winter time.  They would still have to have a stove with a fire burning inside....
