About a Gaming Grandmom and her Runescape-Playing Son

Hi there!

I am not a teenager, (I still remember being one, back in the seventies razz ) but my son is! He is 17 now and has been playing for Runescape almost non-stop for several years. He has chronic asthma so this has been his outlet for fun and accomplishment. I wasn't crazy about it at first, but I have come to respect the game, even having him teach me the basicis on my own character. Through that I got interested in the whole world of online gaming.
I confess I am a former class nerd. Being fourteen was one of the hardest years of my life. I was rejected by the other kids. I don't know why the "in crowd" picked on me to this day?! I still remember a couple kids who were mean to me. You know that still hurts to think about even now..and I am 54! I say that in hopes that those of you who are picking on somebody will think twice about it. Do you want to be remembered as someone who made a kid's life miserable for the rest of his or her life? A little kindness to an outcast could mean so much...

Are you a class nerd? You are welcome here! You are cool to me and I would like to have you for a Gaia buddy!

Some of my interests include these topics: Bible, Christian, Lutheran, family, playing computer games with my son, dealing with asthma (two of our kids have it--argh!)choir, singing, piano, pets, [we have a dog and 2 guinea pigs now] nature study, laughing, making friends of all ages from everywhere, just to name a few...how about you?

The Anthem from my Alma Mater, Westminster Choir College:

The Lord bless you and keep you,
the Lord lift his countenance upon you
and give you peace.
The Lord make his face to shine upon you,
and be gracious unto you.
Amen.

My Car

Meet-up and Rally

Peace be with you...

A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing!
Our helper He amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing.
Just as who that may be?
Christ Jesus it is He!
Lord Sabbaot His name,
from age to age the same.
On earth is not His equal!

Since the Pledge of Allegiance
and The Lord's Prayer

are not allowed in most
public schools anymore

Because the word "God" is mentioned....

A kid in Arizona wrote the following
NEW School prayer.
I liked it.

Now I sit me down in school

Where praying is against the rule

For this great nation under God

Finds mention of Him very odd.

If Scripture now the class recites,

It violates the Bill of Rights.

And anytime my head I bow

Becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, orange or green,

That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.

The law is specific, the law is precise.

Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.

For praying in a public hall

Might offend someone with no faith at all.

In silence alone we must meditate,

God's name is prohibited by the state.

We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,

And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks.

They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.

To quote the Good Book makes me liable.

We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,

And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.

It's "inappropriate" to teach right from wrong,

We're taught that such "judgments" do not belong.

We can get our condoms and birth controls,

Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.

But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,

No word of God must reach this crowd.
!

It's scary here I must confess,

When chaos reigns the school's a mess.

So, Lord, this silent plea I make:

Should I be shot; My soul please take!

Amen

If you aren't ashamed to do this,

please pass this on.

Jesus said,

"If you are ashamed of me,

I will be ashamed of you before my Father."
