Re: a gifting opportunity to Africans
This is most interesting. I remember from way back hearing references to t.w.r. programs and projects. Internet searching their history and personal reviews and testimonies nets no evidence of exorbitant salaries & the like. We have been long supporters of samaritan's purse but mister g's report...

These folk are local to me..... https://bearandsoncutlery.com/about-us/ and claim "made in usa" but the only ones I own (bear) I ordered from smokey mountain knife works and are clearly marked "china". The theory is that the ones I ordered were old stock from a previous iteration...

Re: Favourite Hymn.....
One thing I dislike is when someone feels the need to add something to these wonderful old hymns. Perhaps a Segway or chorus or some such. It always takes away from the original fine old hymn! Reminds me of a joke: A young musician was asked what they did for a living. They responded: I write prais...
