Marriage is clearly a broken institution anyway. Hopefully it does get redefined. Sooner the better.

"....That we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

I came across thin is one of my daily devotional “Girlfriend in God”
Comfort with Your Words
“But my mouth would encourage you; comfort from my lips would bring you relief” Job 16:5 The spoken word is powerful, and spoken words of encouragement can bring great comfort. The idea is not to speak many words, but the right words. Consider this:
·The Lord’s Prayer contains 71 words.
·The Gettysburg Address contains 272 words.
·The Ten Commandments contains 139 words.
·The Declaration of Independence contains 1323 words.
·A U.S. government order setting the price of cabbage contains 26,911 words.
When it comes to words with impact, being long-winded is not a value. But speaking the right words can be life changing.

@Veronicaleigh Lincoln delayed his drafting of the "Gettysburg Address" two days for a frozen yogurt break. #historychannel

I am forced to reflect upon the importance of my craft when my class weeps to the reading of the Gettysburg Address by my professor. From this I gather both the significance of remembering the great political individuals of history, and the assurance that we study them so that such speeches may never be needed again.

Question of the Day: How do you feel about General George B. McClellan's time as the commander of the Army of the Potomac? If given the chance could he have been just as successful as other Generals such as Grant?

Every year at this time marks a passage of great solemnity in the annals of evolutionary urban wildlife I like to call "The Gathering of the Jackhammers."
See, every week-day morning--at precisely 90minutes before I want to get up--these proud beast of technology gather at the side of my street and let perform their drum-beating drone of mating-calls...all at the same time.
For hours.

It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. -(the best part of the Gettysburg Address.)

The first Boston Butt of the season was gently and lovingly placed on the Weber grill at the 7:35 am. My stash of pecan wood chips close by to add additional flavor. The 2013 grilling season is officially underway. Let the magic begin.

The Gettysburg Address
Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
November 19, 1863
On June 1, 1865, Senator Charles Sumner commented on what is now considered the most famous speech by President Abraham Lincoln. In his eulogy on the slain president, he called it a "monumental act." He said Lincoln was mistaken that "the world will little note, nor long remember what we say here." Rather, the Bostonian remarked, "The world noted at once what he said, and will never cease to remember it. The battle itself was less important than the speech."
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
