My Journal

I was at MACY's last morning, picking up some stuff for a friend and I'm amazed at the responsibility there. I was at the same counter a day before an hour prior to closing time, and was told the staff has left for the day. Now, I had waited from 10:30 to 11:50 AM and no body showed up, while the other staffs from other booths couldn't do anything more than serving their own counters which are also apparently very relaxing at this hour.

With this kind of management, how one would wonder why people get laid off, economy is falling or even reaching the conclusion that immigrants (illegal or otherwise) are 'stealing' their jobs is just astonishing.

Those IP Webcam is quite handy, especially the remote pan/tilt ones. Would be an easy setup over the DVR ones. As for quality and results, I do not know.

Today (or Yesterday-Saturday) marks the 3rd time of my participation in Wildman Steve Brill's foraging tour in city parks. First two were Central Park and Prospect Park (I couldn't remember the order). Now Inwood Hill.

This time, with the benefit of my iphone, I get to put photos and notes together very quickly on the spot.

I should upload the photonotes.

Perhaps I could predict this:

Lyna: 哇， 詩班很多不會唱的，最後都唱得很好，感謝神。

Me: 詩班唱得怎麼樣，由聽眾心裡決定，上帝知道，不需要您畫蛇添足。

Some think having greencard without citizenship is not "American", some think as long as they are born outside of USA regardless of their country of citizenship, they are not "American", etc.

Personally, I see American as someone who could easily go in and out of U.S.A. without any hassle, just as any U.S. citizen.

Obviously, my criticisms on Americans do not cover every single individuals.

In Bible studies, especially the Evangelical ones, many love the principle of "Speak out your opinion, nobody is wrong".

I am not so. I would point: This one is wrong, that is right, this person is right, wrong, etc.

I wouldn't even consider covering someone's erroneous statements. One must be responsible for one's speech.

Bible study is teaching when there's a teacher present. Not discussion and certainly not a place to bring false principles and false doctrines.

Questions and doubts are always welcome, but one shouldn't be defensive when one's false doctrine is judged. Who can judge? All servants of God, followers of Christ.
