NLYP - I don't think it's fair that you can get on here and preacher-bash. I thought that was against the rules.

He justifies it, but it was very negative.

not if sang to the tune of:


The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Preach on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, "The Preacher-Kicker Five"

They played the bash
They played the preacher bash
The preacher bash
It was a churchyard smash
They played the bash
It caught on in a flash
They played the bash
They played the preacher bash

As I sit in the funeral home and sing it to the tune of "Monster Mash"

Yeah...I didn't really think he'd consider it...he's too busy growing a church.

ours went up too...people around here are in an uproar. Ameren said rates would go up 50% for January....one local business has a sign on their marquee "Thanks Ameren December $748 January $2497"

Our pastor mentioned that our church bill went up 50% as promised...mine went from 103 to almost 500...

I called JEA and they are going to come out and reread the meter, because she said it was a big jump in gas usage. I'm praying that they are just wrong. My highest bill ever was $453 last winter, and I nearly choked over it!

Just wondered if anyone else has had this kind of shock this year?????

Sherri,
Here is an article I wrote back in April 2004. It was published in the Milwaukee Journal. Attached is the link if anyone wants to pass it along.

I know I talked about oil. But many people use oil to heat their homes.

I copied the article below.

http://www.findarticles.com/p/articl...9/ai_n10960586

Lawmakers must act on better energy policy

In April 2002, Democratic Sen. John Kerry and his colleagues celebrated the defeat of a bill that would have allowed oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. With gas and home heating prices so high, Congress should immediately vote for President Bush's proposal to begin drilling in Alaska for economic and security reasons.

The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries' monopolistic pricing schemes have caused unstable oil prices that continue to harm the U.S. economy. There needs to be a competitive world price for oil.

Some suggest that our president went to war for oil, when at the same time, there are senators in our country voting to maintain our dependency on foreign oil -- a sure thing in the years to come. They can't have it both ways.

Thank God for Freedom to allow Capitalistic companies to make money!

This IS the greatest country on the Face of the Earth. Besides, when have you seen some real action on domestic energy since the crisis of 174 shot gas from 27 cents to where we are today- still captive to OPEC! GM could have produced a car with low maintaince and ZERO pollutants. Instead they shipped all the EV1's to Arizona and crushed them!

I believe it is all part of the end times to make it where men will suffer financial calamity seeking someone like The AntiChrist to arise. jmo

My electric bill this past month was $186.00, including water. Of course, we're on a well, and have a septic tank. Bet none of you folks on city water never had to go out and spend $500.00 for a new pump and pressure tank like I did yesterday!

Our gas runs about $200.00 every 2 or 3 years, which is only for cooking.

Thank GOD I live in Florida!!! We run the heater about 10-15 nights/year, and if it is a mild winter, we may not run it at all.

On the other hand, we run the AC the other 355 days!
