Tom Tancredo of Colorado continues to speak out on illegal immigration in this WorldNetDaily article .....

http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=243565

I agree with Mr. Tancredo. We have an illegal immigration problem, and the U.S. and Mexican governments are doing little to solve it! What do you think?

Alice is walking throught the forest of forgetfulness. She wants to know what day of the week it is. She stops and asks a lion and a unicorn. Now the lion lies all of the time on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. The unicorn always lies on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Alice asks the lion what day it is, he says, "Well, yesterday was one of my lying days." Alice can't figure it out just from the lion's answer so she asks the unicorn and the unicorn says, "Yesterday was also one of my lying days." What day is it?

Song Of The Day - Wednesday, 12/29/2010

"Auld Lang Syne" is the theme song from the 1940 movie "Waterloo Bridge".

"Waterloo Bridge" is a 1940 remake of the 1931 film of the same title.

The film was made by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, directed by Mervyn LeRoy and produced by Sidney Franklin and Mervyn LeRoy. The screenplay is by S. N. Behrman, Hans Rameau and George Froeschel, based on the Broadway drama by Robert E. Sherwood. The music is by Herbert Stothart and cinematography by Joseph Ruttenberg. The film stars Robert Taylor and Vivien Leigh, her first film after the success of "Gone with the Wind". MGM bought the 1931 version from Universal when they did this remake.

A simple tale of love gained and lost, the 1940 film "Waterloo Bridge" tells the story of a dancer and an officer who meet in a chance encounter on Waterloo Bridge. This initial encounter occurs during an air raid in World War I. But because of the Hays Code, which had not been in effect when the 1931 film version was made, the plot of the 1940 version had to be changed and somewhat sanitized. In the original play and film, Myra is an ordinary chorus girl of easy virtue, and Roy is too naive to realize this until near the end. In the 1940 version, Myra is a ballerina in a prestigious dance company, who descends into prostitution after mistakenly believing that Roy has been killed. In the first film, Myra is accidentally killed; in the 1940 version, she commits suicide in order not to involve Roy in a scandal.

"Waterloo Bridge" was a success at the box office and nominated for two Academy Awards — Best Music for Herbert Stothart and Best Cinematography. It was also considered a personal favourite by both Vivien Leigh and Robert Taylor.
Here then is "Auld Lang Syne" along with selected scenes from the 1940 film "Waterloo Bridge" .....

''We all know there is a long tradition of great nations importing foreign workers to do their farm work. After all, it was the ancient Israelites who built the first food pyramids. ... But this is America. I don't want a tomato picked by a Mexican. I want it picked by an American. Then sliced by a Guatemalan, and served by a Venezuelan in a spa where a Chilean gives me a Brazilian.'' ~ Stephen Colbert, testifying before Congress on behalf of the United Farm Workers Union, which was pushing an agriculture jobs bill to give illegal immigrant farm workers a path to citizenship

“We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive.” ~ C. S. Lewis

Bible Verse Of The Day - Wednesday, 12/29/2010

Then Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother: “This child is destined to cause the falling and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against, so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed. And a sword will pierce your own soul too.” – Luke 2:34-35

Simeon gave Mary and Joseph much to think about. Jesus would become a powerful force on the earth, yet many will speak against him. On top of that, Jesus would cause Mary much pain as she witnesses his death on a cross many years later. This is a true picture of the Christ – one who will be a healing balm and an exposer of sin. Do we see Jesus like this? A sanitized Jesus that doesn’t pierce our soul is not the Jesus of the Bible. His love is what brings the pain in order to restore us to Himself.
