Prayers go out to Tony Gwynn's family, friends and fans.


Posted: Jun 16, 2014

Tony Gwynn, AKA Mr. Padre, passed away today, 06/16/2014. Our mayor, Kevin Faulconer, said something that will resonate for the ages: "Our city is little darker today without him, but immeasurably better because of him." Rest in peace, Mr. Padre. May God bless your soul and heal your family's sorrow. There is a beautiful statue of Tony Gwynn in front of Petco Park in downtown San Diego as seen in the below-noted link.

R.I.P., Mr. Padre - NK

As a lifelong baseball fan, although a different team, I remember Mr. Gwynn's induction into the Hall of Fame. I'm sure he was very proud of his son's following in his foot steps.

Prayers For Me And My FamilyOct 10, 2011
Like so many of us today my family is beginning to suffer from this economy tremendously.  Much job loss in my family, potential loss of their homes, and now finding out addictions in some members that were surprising.  I see this as all coming from the stress of worry.  I have begun to pray for healing for my brothers and sisters that they be given what they need for their families - steady work, and supporting their efforts to get counseling and go to rehab. Please pra ...

My Family Needs Prayers Please!May 02, 2012
So a few months ago my grandmother got pneumonia which lead to CHF and then she was put on a ventilator...before that the last time she was in the hospital was 25 years ago for a hysterectomy. The medication they put her on made her hallucinate. She is still in the hospital, has gone thru 3 different hosptials, swing bed, etc. Now, she is in Senior Care for 2 weeks to see how she does. She is still not herself. They are hoping it is delirium instead of dementia, but also mentioned brain damage f ...

A Local Family Needs Prayers, Please!Mar 07, 2017
A family in my area needs a lot of prayers right now. A young woman (50) had a brain aneurysm last week and made it through surgery, but the family just received the MRI results that show this woman suffered a devastating brain injury. Things were hopeful as her body had started working on its own so they took her off the paralytics and sedatives, but her brain was terribly injured. The family is going to donate her organs, but said the process of her passing could take several days. Mir ...

Uh-oh. FRC Tony Perkins Warns Scott Brown To Aug 21, 2012
after he jumped on the bandwagon, filled to capacity, with fellow RINOs calling for Akin's resignation.  I guess Brown's lock-step misstep threatens to push Warren out of the statistical-tie corral and into the forefront (confound, that woman!).  The strategy there had been for Brown to keep his mouth shut on those troublesome "issues" after the phoney outrage over the Cherokee heritage scandal failed to move the numbers.  Do I detect another crack in the GOP' ...

Dr. Tony Martin: The Judaic Role In Slave TradeDec 13, 2011

My grandma's side of the family has a biannual family reunion and it's a pretty big party.  Every reunion a different families "hosts" the reunion.  Hosting generally means they pick a location for everyone to gather, book the facility and caterers, send out the newsletter, and contact local motels and campgrounds for special group rates, etc.  Then of course their in charge of the events at the dinner like giving prizes for who traveled the farthest, the oldest, the you ...

TWD Fans, What Do You ThinkAug 09, 2016
of Fear the Walking Dead?  I've been wanting to ask all of you at the end of season one, but thought it was way too soon.  With the first part of season two behind us and the rest of it starting on the 21st, I would like to know what you think?  It is supposed to take place about 3 weeks before Rick wakes up in the hospital, so things went into the crapper pretty fast.  I do think they need a Daryl Dixon type. ...

For All Rush Limbaugh FansNov 20, 2009
Taken from a segment on Countdown on Wednesday.  Laurence O'Donnell speaking about MSNBC and Keith Olbermann's involvment in the free health clinics that are being set up all over the country.  The comparison between Keith Olbermann's personal contribution and Rush Limbaugh's over so generous contribution of a product he didn't even pay for should say it all.  I guess the $400 million dollar man can't afford to give something personally . . . .

How Joy Behar Keeps Fans Is Astounding To Me.Oct 30, 2010
Not only did she call Sharron Angle a "b" but she said she was going to he!!.  When people heard this they got angry and sent money donations to Sharron Angle.  When Sharron Angle sent flowers and a thank you card, Joy again called her a "b" and told the audience that the flowers were cut by illegal immigrants.  Joy is a hateful, spiteful woman and I can't stand to listen to her.  Joy Behar is the very definition of a left-wing nut job.  ...

Something New For NRA Fans/O Haters To Salivate Over.Jan 16, 2013
The lobbyist's latest public temper tantrum.   I wonder how much money they've dumped into their anti-Obama campaign in the last five years? They might as well be flushing it down the toilet--although they've done a super job of making themselves look petulant since Sandy Hook, so I hope they keep on keepin' on. ...

Book Choices For Twilight Fans?Jan 14, 2011
I'm mid 30s and this may sound a bit juvenile, but I LOVED the Twilight series.  I could not stop reading them!  I read when I get on the treadmill, so it worked great that I would want to read chapter after chapter.  Someone recommended the True Blood series to me, but I couldn't really get into it.  Someone then recommended the Vampire Academy series and I have just started the first book, but it seems a bit TOO juvenile for me.  Please help, lol, my butt is ...

Fans Go WILD After Trump Does THIS… But Then He Was Met With Something He Never Expected This is one of the biggest Trump rallies that took place in Kissimmee, Florida. This is the same town where Hillary Clinton recently invited the father of the Orlando shooter to the rally. Not many people showed up for Hillary. Of course, Trump sold out the arena that can hold 8,000 people. The polls may be saying one thing, but this turnout says quite another. Scroll down past half page to see ...
