OPINION: Enslaving debt soars to over $23 trillion
In listening to the 2020 Democratic presidential debates or President Donald Trump's many addresses to the American people, you would not know that we have exceeded $23 trillion in debt and that to liquidate this debt, $186,577 per taxpayer is due immediately (see www.usdebtclock.org). America cannot pay its existing bills.

OPINION: My opinion is not worth all that much
I dreaded getting that old sore-footed cow cut out and up again this morning. She has a dang good calf by her side and I like for the belly to stay full so the udder can stay full for the babies, but we had to do something for the pain and misery of her sore foot. I saw she was not moving around much last week, but she didn't show me limping when she did move. The drive through the herd after church yesterday made me wish we had penned her last week.

Halloween dreaming? With snowflakes?
Trick or treat? This is being written during the morning of Halloween Day when Mom Nature ended another of her summer and autumn wringing-wet surprises. After scraping the ice off the car windows this morning, I happily welcomed the sun that began a day of autumn glory. But ... the trick is for later this Halloween evening when the north winds are going to blast the costumes of kiddies strolling the streets, freezing their little noses and, if hands are not enclosed, those fingers will tingle as they knock on doors or ring bells. This evening is supposed to be as cold as kraut. That description has been around forever. Who doesn't know how cold kraut is?

RELIGION: Seeing through Faith
"So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum. When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death. Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe. The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die. Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way. And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth. Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him. So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house. This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee." John 4:46-54

"And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled." Revelation 6:9-11
