Five Little Stones

Our country is in a serious condition. This time we are fighting a BIG giant. Its time we acted on our beliefs.
God said that if He is for us, who can be against us. I think I know why David slew the giant with five little stones. It was the number of the Pentatuch, where God always prevailed.Who has five stones?

Status Quo

I'm 87, but I'm not in my rocker just yet. Status quo would like to keep me there, but I'm still trying to learn new things. I like to write, but I don't read all that much so I joined the "Reader's Club" where I live, and had to give a book report. I am interested in anything French, so I decided to get David McCullough's latest book "The Greater Journey" Americans in Paris.
It tells of the Americans who came to advance their scientific and cultural aspirations.It is 535 pages of  rivoting interest in the accomplishments of James F. Cooper, Louis Gottschalk, Samuel Morse and George Healey and the list goes on. You also read of their lives through the French Revolution, and how that war affected our way of thinking here in America today.
