Where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday we were starting our small, inconsequential blog. And now 1,500 postings later, it seems like we are just scratching the service of what is possible! So much more to do!

We want to thank our readers for your support and encouragement. Thanks for taking an interest in our work and thanks for taking time to leave us an occasional comment.

We also want to recognize and thank HermannMoNews, a relatively new local news blog published by my new friend 'Poor Richard 2011'. I first met 'Poor Richard 2011' about two months ago when he emailed me to thank HermannHearsay for inspiring him to create his own news blog. Since that time, we have worked together and shared helpful information.

I consider HermannMoNews to be the 'Drudge Report of Hermann'. 'Poor Richard' is especially adept at doing internet research and digging up news stories with local content as well as national and global stories of potential local interest. If you are not already visiting HermannMoNews, I encourage you to do so very soon. Tell 'Poor Richard' that we sent you! Click on the following link to visit 'Poor Richard' at HermannMoNews.

Hermann Hearsay is sincerely interested in your ideas for our website. Please let us know how we can better serve your needs and interests.

Best regards,

Jimmy Oldsun

Woman Falls into Fountain while Texting

Many states have laws against texting while driving because it is dangerous and causes accidents and deaths. The video below is also a demonstration at how dangerous texting can be while walking. At Berkshire Mall, a woman is texting while walking and the lack of focus causes her to trip right into the mall fountain. The footage in the video below is video taken of the security cam footage of the incident. It shows it from two different angles…

"He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it." ~ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

He who works his land will have abundant food, but the one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty. – Proverbs 28:19

We live in a culture that sows the seeds of fantasy. We watch “reality shows” (I question how real they are) where young adults are placed in homes and situations that they normally can’t afford. We watch and criticize their antics, but we also allow seeds to be planted in our hearts – we want to live in those homes; we want to have the money to be in those situations. And we don’t understand why we have become disgruntled with our current job and living situations. Guard your heart, for God has given you that job and surrounding. To learn to work the land that you have will reap much greater rewards than chasing media fantasies funded by corporate money.

Today’s commentary by Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org
