Imagine a truck stop the size of a small town. It covers 6,000 acres, more than 9 square miles. It has connections to move cargo from anywhere in the world to anywhere else. It serves trucks, railroad and air transport, and even though it’s 800 miles from the ocean it links with the largest seaports in the Western hemisphere.

It can service the most modern and energy-efficient trucks, next door to a comfortable hotel for drivers. It has warehouses and factories, privately developed, which create the opportunity for value-added Read More

By Fr. Glenn Jones:

Hmph. Someone brought cookies to work. Again, dang it. Well … how ‘bout just one? Well … another one won’t hurt. And before long, it’s “Is that the last of them?” Blast.

A trivial example, but … oh, the temptations of life! Always those seeking to be good persons, whether they be Christians or no, must battle those pestilently persistent deadly sins: lust, gluttony, envy, wrath, pride, greed, sloth—all, of course, rooted in selfishness.

Los Alamos
For the Los Alamos Daily Post

I love Facebook marketplace, and I have found some amazing bargains there. That said, you need to be careful because for every bargain there’s a scam!
