"Here you go, son. Here's the fries you wanted." The father handed his son a super sized container of french fries and a coke. He sat across the table from his son to sip his coffee and read his newspaper.His son was becoming quite the young man. It seems like just yesterday that they brought him home from the hospital wrapped in a baby blanket his grandmother knitted. Now he is taller than his mother and is showing traces of peach fuzz on his chin.Turning to the Sport's section, the smell of the fresh french fries distracted him. He reached across the table to take a couple. "No Dad," the boy snapped, "these are my fries, you can't have any."

A common expression goes like this, "If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail." This is true in every walk of life and we are all guilty. We find solutions to problems and opportunities using our resources no matter what scholastic, spiritual or professional level we may achieve. For example, a mathematician views virtually every problem as being number-related. Dieticians can cure your health problems with a new diet and a surgeon wants to cut on your gizzard. A carpenter sees broken chair and reaches for his nail gun, while the refinisher relies on glue and clamps. Each person is confident they have the correct tool for the job and each kinda sorta might work. It is important to use the correct tool. Remember, hot glue is for crafts, Elmers glue is for paper, wood glue is for wood and super glue is for fingers. It's simple once you get the hang of it.

I recently won a book. It was a guide-book to a place where I've never been and am never likely to go - bearing in mind that the Phillipines are on the other side of the world to the UK and the furthest I've ever been is Malta. Nevertheless, I found it incredibly interesting. For example, I now know that Pagsanjan is the best place to go if

I was ever to try canoeing and just happened to find myself close to Manila. Caving? Then I should try Palawans underground river. In short, I now know more about the Phillipines than I will ever need - but I still won't know it as well as a Filipino.

Cody just left our house. He was here with his boss, reviewing issues we have with the work they failed to complete. We made an expensive purchase from them and they seriously failed their contractural and moral obligations. You see, Cody's employer, Mr. Lowville, has a reputation of being one of the worst businessmen in the region. We didn't know this when we signed a contract with him and since that day, we have regretted our decision. We have heard horror stories from many people how Mr. Lowville takes advantage of everyone he meets. Unfortunately, we have learned of his unscrupulous dealings firsthand. This purchase has been one of the worst experiences of our life. Imagine our shock and disbelief when Cody told us he is a Christian.

Stan, not his real name, is a walking contradiction. When I first met him, he proudly introduced himself as a Radical Messianic Jew. He has an impressive library of sacred books, and at first, appeared to be fairly well-versed in Judaism and Christianity. He religiously kept the Sabbath, Jewish food laws and celebrated the feasts. His initial display of faith was admirable, but like many others before me, I soon realized things aren't always as they seem. The more Stan spoke of his lifestyle, the more troubled I became. For example, he bragged how he violently killed over thirty goats with his AK-47 in a fit of rage. From what I have seen of his brittle personality, I believe him.
