Dear Howdy
Did you ever realize your e-letter is mainly filled with
(alleged) letters from readers saying little else then
how great and funny you are and what a ___ of a great
thing your letter is?! Ever tried to fanthom what kind
of ego problem it is that you have? Can you give one single
reason what the point is to bother so many people with
your ridiculous and immature ego-trip, inferiority complex
and pathetic religiousness?
Just wondering.
Lothar Köhler - (Denmark)
Hey Lothar,
Ever notice that I don't use my real name???
Wondering also,
Howdy
P.S. Might be braggadocios to do that & say that
'T & H' has been read by two million fine folks in
every country except N. Korea but I keep it a secret
even to friends so that I might not become replete
with superciliousness.

Husband & Wife
.
My parents have been married for almost 40 years.
Whenever anyone asks my Dad how they've stayed married
for so long, he claims they are compatible. They both
like to fight! He says that they have come to an
agreement on one thing...
He doesn't try to run her life, and he doesn't try to run his.

Video Games -
The New "Playgrounds of the Self?
.
Just a couple of years ago, I was talking to a group of college students--
mostly young men--about pressures, temptations, and challenges that
come with living in our postmodern world. Predictably, many of these
students mentioned challenges related to technology, such as the
availability of internet pornography. What took me by surprise was
their near-unanimous judgment that video games represent a persistent
pattern of temptation they often find very hard to resist.

Letter To Howdy

Dr. Howdy,
I just found you online today and what an inspiration. Your blog
has been in full force for well over a year and it has brightened
my day. Your big words and thought induced phrases are a fresh
reminder of what one can do with a clear mind and a pure soul.
I did run across your E newspaper posted 8/11/05 and I felt a
different flow or intention. Your other posts were over flowing
with love and faith in your fellow man.
Different views for different people. Change is inevitable and
tolerance is a skill, but truth with always be truth.
I will be visiting your blog and online education for your words
are powerful. Your high level of education and great study habits
are shown on every page.
You are doing a wonderful mission and I am blessed to have
found you online.
Thank you again,
Joel

Marine Recruiter
.
Serving as a Marine recruiter in North Carolina, I found a
UNC student who met all the requirements and was ready
to enlist. I explained the importance of being truthful on
the application, and he began filling out his paper work.
But when he got to the question "Do you own any foreign
property or have any foreign financial interests?" he
looked up at me with a worried expression.
"Well," he confessed, "I do own a Toyota. Does that matter?"

Blog Scribbler
.
The Scribbler is a fun little site. Draw a basic object using your
mouse and click Start Scribbler.
The Scribbler starts drawing on top of your original, creating new
lines and adding to the piece. You can adjust the settings so that
it draws in a different color, uses thicker lines or increases
the "scribbliness."
Even those who aren't very good at drawing can create very cool
pictures. If you like what you created, take a screen shot of the
picture and e-mail it to the Web site's gallery.

Blog Dentist Visit
.
A UNC student walks into a dentist's office and says,
"Excuse me, can you help me. I think I'm a moth."
"You don't need a dentist. You need a psychiatrist."
"Yes, I know."
"So, why did you come in here?"
"The light was on."

Riddles - 8.12.5
.
1) Two people are talking on the phone long distance. One
is in an East Coast state of the U.S., the other is in a West
Coast state of the U.S. The first asks the other, "What time
is it?" He hears the answer and says, "That's funny. It's
the same time here!" Neither one of them were mistaken
about the time. How is this possible?
2) Can you tell me what is remarkable about this rather
long sentence?
Dennis, Nell, Edna, Leon, Nedra, Anita, Rolf, Nora, Alice,
Carol, Leo, Jane, Reed, Dena, Dale, Basil, Rae, Penny, Lana,

Reba, Diane, Lynn, Ed, Eva, Dana, Lynne, Pearl, Isabel,
Ada, Ned, Dee, Rena, Joel, Lora, Cecil, Aaron, Flora, Tina,
Arden, Noel, and Ellen sinned.
3) Eliminate all the days of the week except for one, and to be
forthright about it, this day is NOT the day after Sunday or
the day before Wednesday, and it can't be that Saturday is
tomorrow, nor can it be that Saturday was yesteday, and it
most certainly couldn't be two days before yesterday, and
while we're at it, let's eliminate Thursday. So, what day
is it?

Academic Fables and Myths
.
Can we really make something true just by believing it?
How about a concrete example? If you sincerely believe
your onion rings are French fries, do they become French
fries? If you sincerely believe that you're a frog, do you
become a frog? You might leap in the air, but you will not
be a frog.
When it comes to concrete, familiar objects, no one falls
for the sincerity myth. We all know there's an objective
reality that exists on its own, despite what we may believe
about it -- and no matter how sincere we are.

Uncle Joe
.
After much urging by his wife, Uncle Joe applied for work on
a farm. The foreman decided to give him a try and told him to
milk a cow, equipping him with a stool and a bucket.
An hour later Uncle Joe returned dirty and sweaty, the bucket
in one hand and the broken stool in the other.
"Extracting the milk was easy," he explained. "The worst part
was getting the cow to sit on the stool!"

Does Believing Make It So?
.
Professor J. Budziszewski explains that new college students
often run into the powerful myth that "truth is whatever you
sincerely believe." It holds that, if you believe it, then it's
"true for you" -- and rules of logic and evidence don't apply.
