Signs of the End Times?

Years ago I remember reading a book describing Biblical prophecy, that when Israel was attacked the enemy’s missiles would be knocked out of the sky. Kinda what happened this weekend, right? Pastor Greg Laurie on why Iran’s attack on Israel is a sign of the End Times.

But before you start saying your goodbyes and spending your IRA’s on Hawaiian vacations, remember that no one knows the time and place. God’s timing is different than yours and mine. Another sign of the End Times was when Israel became a sovereign nation again in 1948 – over 70 years. ago.

There have been increased sightings of black-eyed people and children. Is it a sign of the end times? Why is the national media trying to hush this story?

I have got to get to Fort Mountain to see the moon-eyed people artifacts, of Cherokee Indian legend. Aliens? Demons? Or worse – Europeans?

Tuesday: worked past six again. Spent most of Tuesday doing someone else’s work. Not happy about it. Plus orders were entered in error that clogged up the works, but no one went back and cancelled them. So many people are confused about this SAP all over the country. Lots of problem creators, not many problem solvers. Even my bosses’ boss was saying that.

Wanted to watch the Braves on TBS but it was blocked on my TV. Watched Jeopardy, The Neighborhood, The Weakest Link, and Password. Ceil fixed meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and steamed broccoli.

Forgot to run an errand on the way home. Didn’t realize it until this morning. Hit up Arbys for lunch today. Leftovers tonight if C has her small group.

The must-eat food from every state. For Georgia it’s the peach cobbler from Mary Macs. In Florida it’s a sub sandwich from Publix. Okay.

Planks or Crunches – which is better? Both are good. Crunches focus on building ab muscles. Planks are good for a wider range of body parts.

RIP CARL ERSKINE [SABR Bio] his record for most strikeouts in a World Series game was broken by Sandy Koufax. In the 3rd game of the 1953 Series, Erskine struck out 14 Yankees, including Mickey Mantle four times. Koufax had 15 K vs. NYY in G 1 of the 1963 WS. (Mantle only struck out 2 X that day). Erskine had a record of 20-6 or .769 to lead the NL in 1953. He placed 9th in the NL MVP voting in 1953, for the only time in his 12-year career. Seven Dodgers received MVP votes that year, with teammate Roy Campanella getting the top vote. Erskine was the last surviving player highlighted in the ground-breaking book, “The Boys of Summer” by Roger Kahn. Kahn, well-respected writer on sports, published his masterpiece in 1972. After recounting his childhood in Brooklyn and his life as a young reporter on the New York Herald Tribune, the author relates some history of the Brooklyn Dodgers up to their victory in the 1955 World Series.  He then tracks the lives of the players (Clem Labine, George Shuba, Andy Pafko, Joe Black, Preacher Roe, Pee Wee Reese, Carl Furillo, Gil Hodges, Roy Campanella, Duke Snider, Jackie Robinson& Billy Cox a well as Erskine) over the subsequent years as they aged.  The title of the book is taken from a Dylan Thomas poem. Erskine’s no-hitters were on 19-Jun-1952 vs. CHC and 12-May-1956 vs. NYG - each in a season where his team won the pennant. For his charity work after his career, the Hall of Fame honored him with a special award, one given to only five other recipients. In 2023, the HOF announced that Erskine would be awarded the Buck O'Neil Lifetime Achievement Award for his contributions to charity & his work towards the Special Olympics. After throwing his second career no-hitter, he passed on a bottle of champagne offered to him instead celebrating with an orange soda. His second no-no was at home in Ebbets Field. Erskine was conscious of his image with the Brooklyn fans (who affectionately called him “oisk”).
