- Tuition for TCU goes to $30,000 a year next year. I think I've figured out why the Common Man doesn't readily jump on their bandwagon.
- The roof of Reunion Arena comes down today which is a bummer because the course of the Dallas Turkey Trot, which I run every year, goes right by it. I kind of wanted to see it in its current huge coffee table form.
- The Fort Worth Court of Appeal reversed one of those DWI "No Refusal Weekend" blood draw cases last week, but the facts were so wonky I don't think it is very significant. But it sure scared the heck out of prosecutors when it was first released.
- We haven't had a good Wise County public official scandal in a long time. Somebody needs to step up.
- From the I Couldn't Care Less Department: President Obama bowing to the Japanese Emperor.
- My dry cleaning lady now wants to talk about what I wear on weekends.
- I don't know who the Republicans can possibly find as a presidential nominee for the next go round. Sarah Palin is Sarah Palin. Mike Huckabee, based upon his radio "show", might be an actual hillbilly. the governor of Louisiana freezes when a camera comes on. and Mitt Romney has the baggage of the right wing believing he is a cult member because of his Mormon faith. Who is left?
- And I only saw a couple of seconds of Palin on Oprah. I didn't feel emotionally strong enough to sit through it since I misjudged the impact of seeing both of those women together.
- I still don't understand how the conservative talk show hosts refer to 9/11 as an "act of war." An act of war declared by what country?
- Cowboy Hot Sports Opinion: The loss of offensive lineman Marc Columbo is so huge that the wheels might fall off this team.
- (Side note for my lawyer buddies: Google is getting into the free Texas legal research business. Quick link.)
- Something very weird about my dreams: The always involve something bad happening to me. I mean, I never awake from one of them and think, "I wish that were true."
- For some reason, I'm going to the the Redskins game this weekend.
- The 86 year old owner of the Tennessee Titans shocked everyone this weekend when he flipped the "double bird" in front of TV cameras. Yeah, that's bad, but is it worth a $250,000 fine by the NFL?
- After several awful football seasons, the Chico ISD let coach and athletic director Pete Hart go last night. Uh, and they wrote him a check for $75,000.

Barry, I have children at both TCU and Baylor. TCU is no higher than your beloved, Baylor.
God bless Pete Hart. A coach whom truly loved the kids he taught. Chico may find someone that may win more games, but they will be hard-pressed to find anyone that cares as much about the kids as Pete. I wish him the best and hope he bounces back as strong as ever.
Barry, I am concerned about us Democrats. Clinton may have been our best candidate for decades...and we know he was a bit less than he could have been. Obama is a mortification for anyone with any party on any level. Try thinking more about us, forget the Republicans.
You left wing idiots are always labeling people and giving credit to the right wing. We will never know why you are so hung up on using those French terms anyway. If you think being a Morman is a cult just say so...none that I know do...so take credit for your own feelings...you know no one else's. You are just like your state run media. (How is that for a hasty generalization?)
Would someone who's better at managing other people's money please tell me why he could not be allowed to finish out the year teaching?
Shouldn't he be offered a different position instead of just paying him to leave? With his record, it's not like he's going to get a head coaching job anywhere in Texas.
Why not keep him since he is a positive influence on the students and makes a difference in their lives?
If the board members had to write a personal check, I assure you he would be allowed to finish his term.
There's a long time before the next Presidential campaign officially begins. If Obama continues his "wheels-off" streak throughout his term, Republican (and Democrat) challengers will line up to have a go. (If I call Obama The Mule, some people will see the aptness of the description.)
As for using the term "act of war," refusing to take action until some government takes credit for an attack doesn't make a lot of sense. Do you wait for someone to officially say "let's fight" before you strike back? Or is a beer bottle over the head enough of a clue? Practicing law may have made you too rigid in your thinking, counselor.
I agree with you 8:27 Pete Hart cared truly for each one of those kids. He wanted to win but at the sametime he helped so many children. He is a good man and I wish only the best for him and his family...
6, 6.25
Watched all of the Oprah/Palin interview. The whole thing was stilted.
Boring.
Chico isd must have really wanted Coach Hart gone to pay him 75,000. I wonder what he did to make them so mad. That might be an interesting scandall.
Yeah the craziness at Chico thinks that if they get a new coach he can turn around a program that virtually has no talent and zero prospects of any talent coming up. And besides that what fool would want that mess over there to begin with. Pete is an great coach who did as much as possible with the talent pool (and most of it comes from the shallow end) that he had. Good luck Pete. You will be in a better place soon.
Your Palin/Oprah comment is truly disturbing. I hope you were being facetious, is all I can say. Otherwise, surrender your man card immediately
A civil war can be sparked by an "act of war" - from a section of the population within a nation - yet not be declared as war by a country. Is it impossible to start a war without the benefit of a nation's blessing?
Stay classy, Bud Adams!
BG: is this whole TCU hate-fest just a bit? Did you check to see if TCU is any more expensive than other private universities like Baylor and SMU? Why is there so much jealousy and hate inside you? As a TCU alumni and a Christian, I can no longer read your posts. I will only look at the photos of girls with big tits. You have my sympathy, sir.
Good comments about Pete Hart from Denny Crane.
Schools don't care about teaching much anymore, or a caring teacher.......
...just sports and winning games.
Sad.
Chico ISD doesnt deserve a coach like Pete Hart...there isnt a coach in the world that could have helped chico football win games...Coach hart was an awesome coach in a not so awesome situation in chico...No talent, no support, parents complaining all the time, etc...seriously Mack Brown himself couldnt have turned this team around...all of the people that ran him out of town should be ashamed of yourselves.
God bless you Coach, you'll land on your feet somewhere soon.
I don't see how 9/11 was an act of war either. I think it just was an excuse for the boys in Pentagon to get to play soldier with our american boys for awhile to boost the economy. Didn't work...just got our boys killed for NO REASON. Ridiculous!
All the private schools cost that much...TCU is no higher than Baylor, and SMU is even more costly than those two.
Palin rocks.
8:35, "How is that for a hasty generalization?". You said it all when you said hasty. It shows that you do not put any thought into what you say. You just take the what the talk show idiots spout out ad repeat them as your ow. Stupid, really stupid.
Doubt if Pete taught any classes to finish out the year......another example of our ISDs blowing money. Some even have secretaries and aides.
If the public ever really saw the schedules of our coaches there would be revolution, not to mention the number of them who are not that great in the classroom anyway.
However, coaches who are real teachers (in the classroom) do exist and WOW does the ISD get a bargain then.
I have taught next door to more of the former than the latter, but I count those few as real treasures.
What is wrong with the School Board in Chico. Paying $75,000.00 to get rid of someone. If he was not doing the job, they should just fire him. If he was doing his job, then keep him till his contract runs out. But first and formost, they should set guidlines for employees when they hire them and then hold them to that level. Accountability is the keyword.
Bport should replace Henson with Hart. Heard henson will be leaving once his son graduates anyways so why not beat him to the punch!!
I dont even know him(Hart) but have heard nothing but good about him so finding a job with the references he has should not be hard!!
No scandals for public officials? I guess a newly elected public official "allegedly" molesting his own daughter is not a scandal?
I guess you liberals don't even believe there are such vermin as terrorists! Idiots!
You people would readily hand our country over to pirates in the name of "neighborly love" before you'd ever think to protect this precious country. Do you honestly think terrorists would preserve the freedoms we have here? Honestly, do you? If so, you are all morons.
Run, Pete Hart, as fast as you can away from Chico! It's a blessing.
Coach Hart only had 8 people from the public to back him up last night? That's strange. When were all those people ranting about his leaving on this blog? Mmmmmmm.....
8:47am
"And besides that what fool would want that mess over there to begin with."
Let me take a stab at that comment.
MMMMMMmmmmmm.....Pete Hart did
DUH
I think the real shame in what happened to Pete Hart is that Chico will probably be 1A next year, which is probably where they should have been for a while. I wonder if they will compete next year in a different class and then further blame Pete Hart for their failures. I remember listening to the radio show a year or two ago, and they were not even sure they could fill 20 uniforms on Friday night with healthy players.
9:53. I do not consider myself a a liberal. My opinion depends on the issue being discussed. I hate Obama, hate welfare and any socialist program, etc. HOwever, I am a child of the 60s and I detest war in any shape or fashion. Had I been a boy in the 60s, I would be a Canadian now, and you are correct...I would never, no way, no how, join the military for any reason. I would move from this "precious country" in a heartbeat if required to join the military and never look back.
9:16, I'll go out on a limb here and guess you're a female moderate. I like your take on the war. Palin rocks? Her nomination was McCain's bain. Lets hope she stays a 'WAS'; take your book money and fade away media whore.
All the Pete Hart fans on here are from Bridgeport. They think he is so great because Bridgeport was great while he was carrying Henson's clip board around. I pray that he becomes there coach and craters there program too. Chico went from district champions to having to schedule Era and Perrin for possible wins. Call it what you want you die hard maroon but facts are facts. A nice guy he may be but a winning head coach he never was or will be.....
District champs in 1A but we also had kids that wanted to win... Not kids that cry to their parents if they do not play or get yelled at.Wake up dude No coach will be good at chico unless the kids want to win.....
9:53
I believe you are a terrorist by the way you are ranting and raving! Blah Blah Blah! LMAO! Get your big girl panties on and get to work. Osama is calling you...
9-11 not an act of war? You are an idiot.
Alvord should send them one, i think they like 15 coaches
District champs in 2a also. And to the previous message about number of kids playing. Since Harts third year numbers have been less than HALF of the twenty year average while enrollment is up. Come on now with the kids wanting to lose comment. No kid wants to lose.
it looks like chico should focus on reading and writing instead of football, the numbers don't look good over there
Both my kids had Pete Hart in the classroom (Bridgeport) and although he was a nice guy - he never stayed in the classroom long enough to teach. He left the classroom every day 15-30 minutes early leaving the class unattended. I assume since both my kids had the same situation, this happened more than 2 different years.
Barry, you are WAY behind the times for private school tuition. 30K/yr is a drop in the bucket for private schools - even 6-8 years ago. One thing I WILL say for private schools - there is a TON of money given to students who initiate applications for scholarships. TCU has thousands of dollars each year in scholarships that no one even applies for.
Will there ever be a Banjo class at Chico High?
I would move there if they ever did offer it.
Damn Jim, maybe you should contact Hart and see if he might tutor you on spelling.
10:37 You are correct in your assessment of me. At least we agree on the war issue!
9-11, by definition was an act of war. BG has a point asking by what country was the act committed, and there is no country, so the coalition of allies came up with the term War on Terrorism. Bush the decider and all his 'bad intelligence', got antsy and rolled the Endless War on Saddam / Daddy's Vengeance War into the War on Terrorism. JMHO
10:48, at least I'm AT WORK! Where are you? Sitting on the couch collecting welfare from some made up disability? Why don't you move your lousy A** to Canada with 10:36? OH, but wait, Canada doesn't GIVE handouts to losers like the good ol USA does.
You both are exactly examples of reasons this country is in jeopardy! Losers!
Shut up, Denny "Douche" Crane
I heard that Senator Kay has been checking out tanning beds in Austin. Just because Gov. Palin had one put in it doesn't mean that every Governor's mansion should have one.
Palin is pretty and smart - great figure..... but mercy - that voice. Twang and hicksville. Anybody remember LBJ and his "my fella Mericans"......?
Do we really need a repeat of that butchered English?
if they thought pete was no good, wait until the struggle to find someone to fill the worst job in texas. no talent, no students = failure for anyone. look at kyle story ... he has 850 students to chose from and has no talent.
cognrats pete, you no longer have to put up with the BS
11:10 Why the comment about "Daddy's Vengeance War"? The only "Daddy" did was push back an aggressive tyrant who invaded a much weaker neighbor. He did not advance into Iraq he just defended a weaker country and I did not see any other world power do it. Find a new argument, that one is getting old.
Jim Evidently you do not have a kid that has went to school in chico all their life.The kids might not want to lose. But when you have parents that raise all kinds of crap when they try to discipline them or make them run for conditioning you can not be a good coach.... over there the coaches have to raise all kinds of crap in order to be a coach.. Behind previous supertindent They had to do what the parents said.. Make parents happy.. That is all Chico is about. We get a good girls bball coach in.They will try to get rid of him too because he makes them work out..come on I will laugh my ass off if he gets a school that respects him as a coach and comes over here and kicks chico butt..... Because it is the parents.. Not the coaches!!!! Wake up Chico or you will lose more coaches!!!! Make your kids want it!! Make them strive to win!!! and you will be winners but if you complain like you have the kids will end up being like you disrespecting the Coaches..Let them coach they went to school to do that you didnt
11:34 do you by any chance live in one of those homes that can be moved from one place to another?
I see you missed the point "Old Timer"...the insinuation was simply too deep for you.

Here, and scroll down a little to put President Obama's kowtow in perspective- important.
Were I or you to meet the emperor of Japan not only would I bow respectfully- we probably SHOULD- that would be under the, he emperor- I nobody department.
President Obama is the leader of the free world AND the most powerful man in the world and he hasn't figured that out yet.
The world just does not work the way he thinks it does- show 'respect' you get respect. A leader shows obeyance to another head of state he is saying without a word,"I'm weaker than you."
Don't believe me? Wait until he gets our butts handed to us over the nuke talks with Medvedev. He already got us and Poland clobbered over the missile defense project on their soil.
The people who "couldn't care less" simply don't understand how much they should care or at least- don't realize how much the rest of the worlds leadership DO care.
They see it as the sign of weakness it is.
Im Double Fake Pete Hart and I approve this add...Dude..have you really ever talked to someone from Chico...Football should not be on the top of there needs...Dental care and Weight loss should be up there..they have more rolls than a catapiller
I heard Chico is hiring Gordon Wood. He is a little stiff, but he can still win some games.
Football guru
AMEN 9:14, and 9:58!! Well said! C'mon people~~~Coach Hart filled 14 uniforms on Friday night.. he didn't have a chance in he**. But, he will be the first one to tell you to stop knocking these kids!!!!! It's a small group of idiotic parents and school board members that are against him. Most, if not all, of these kids love him. all I can say now is RUN, COACH, RUN!!!!!! You are better off!! So is your family!! They won't have to listen to all the crap coming out of the stands anymore. Diagreeing with coaching is one thing, hatred and abuse is quite another!!!
Who do I need to send my resume to in Chico?
Double Fake Todd Dodge
Bud Adams is certainly a bat-crazy old wildcatter. His firing of Bum Phillips (my favorite coach behind Tom Landry) & the moving of the Oilers to Tennessee still gets older Bayou City residents in a boil. He is a tough old nut with enough money to do what he darn well wants to do, no matter the public opinion. The birds may yet fly again.
9:39 I heard the same thing and heard she put up a website about it. The website wasn't up long but a friend of mine saw it and made a copy of it.
Coach Hart has a great reputation for caring about the kids and is a good man. As a taxpayer in Chico ISD, it makes no sense to pay off his contract and let him go immediately.
The number speaking for him was more than the few who spoke against him; however, the school board turned away from what the kids were saying about him. Next year, he may have had a chance playing smaller schools.
Wait until this school board wants more money for buildings because my vote will be NO next time.
How easy it is to spend money that would have been good raises for teachers.
We were able to hear the meeting since many didn't go knowing it was a cut and dry decision made behind closed doors before the meeting.
Good luch to Coach Hart and his family. He will get another job and have a good savings account for all the years he helped kids in Chico. Will the next coach care about the kids and the girls track team? Not if winning is the only thing that matters.
I can't believe I votes yes for the new high school that they don't need now since their enrollment is down.
Is there a good cheeseburger place in Chico? If there is, let me know, and I'll send my resume in. I'm going to be needing a new job next year.
I really like cheeseburgers....
Double Fake Wade Phillips
10:36 WTF is stopping you from becoming a Canadian now. Seems like you would fit right in. You want to be a part of something great unless you have to get your hands dirty to protect it. I got some news for you, America doesn't need you!!!
Quick! Someone grab an applicationj and make a phone call. I hear Mike Chaney is looking for a head coaching position. Think he would fit in @ Chico any better than @ Alvord?
I am more amazed that Chico actually has 75K.
Chico Mart has good cheeseburgers and they support the dragons.
Pete Hart for president!!!!!!!
1:04
Ya think Coach Hart did not get paid every year for caring about those kids?
Jim, your saying Coach Hart wasn't anything more than a two bit clipboard holder from B'port? No wonder he didn't know how to coach. I attended 12 years of school in Chico. What were they thinking when they hired this guy?
GO CHICO DRAGONS!!!!! May a REAL coach come knocking on your door!
I could teach Banjo there for $75,000 a year.
Hey 1:50 - can you play banjo and eat cheesburgers at the same time?
If so, Oprah wants you!!
Do math teachers who are "wonderful people" and "care about their kids" and "do great things" but nevertheless have students that don't learn math get $75,000 checks when they are made to leave?
Coach Hart has more character in his little toe than the entire town of Chico. I personally witnessed him create integrity and drive in kids that would not have a chance in hell otherwise. They made the grades in order to play football because he cares. There were plenty other coaches on the same staff that the kids despised b/c of the ego they carried with them and you could see how much they didn't care on their face.
You other teachers can take shots at coaches all day long but I personally learned more from them than most all of the others combined. Their class may have been easier but that doesn't necessarily mean it is any less successful. For the most part they know how to relate to the kids they care about, create a fun learning environment, and get more from less b/c in the end the parents & students who care are becoming fewer.
He may not have a very good record as a head coach but there are schools all over waiting for the opportunity to hire him. Good luck to Coach Hart and Chico will still be Chico.
Obama is suppose to be Mr. Anti-oil man and yet he gives $2 billion to Brazil for off shore exploration and drilling. And on top of that,we won't see one drop of that oil, China has all the contracts for that oil. Who benefits? George Soros. It's his company behind this sweet deal. Is this some sort of a payback? We can't go for more oil here, but we can fork out $2 billion to aid Brazil and Soros make a bunch of money going for it down there.
1:47 12 years of school, so you made it to the 3rd grade. Pete you are better off.
I would lick all ten of those toes.
I mean twenty
Unless they're deformed and it's 22
or 18 or somethin'.
Then I still might.
Ya know, I'm going to need a new job next year too. Is there a Catholic church near Chico and some place with an all-you-can-eat buffet?
Double Fake Charlie Weis

* Perhaps, it is just that I grew up understanding the difference between a reigning monarch/royalty and an elected official that enables me to attach no significant meaning, other than showing respect to a person's lineage and station in society established by their birth, to anyone bowing to a reigning monarch/royalty.

I could not help but notice that, Internet Tough Guy, jim is back talking more of his lame, baseless smack. Keep in mind, jim is the same Bozo who assured me that because he is who he is, that he knows me and was going to break a few windows at my home while he golfed over the weekend. When I called jim on his BS he NEVER posted my real name or called me. See, if jim was not a poser and REALLY knew my name all he would have to do is look it up in the local phone book, get my phone number and give me a call. Jim is just a impedant, whiny weasel who is best ignored.
Good gosh people. Pete Hart is laughing all the way to the bank with his $75,000.00. If it had been just a 'teacher that did not get their contract extended or renewed would everyone be raising so much cain? Heck no, cause this is about king football or lack thereof. Life will go on.
If it took a Carter to get a Reagan, then maybe it will take an Obama to get a Nugent.
THE NUGE FOR PRES IN '12
I honestly think that Hart should get out of Wise County. Got get a coordinator job at some 3A school, where none of the baggage will follow and start over. He's a good coach who cares, but there is just too much OPINION about him here now.
Well said, Robin.
The Mormon church is a CULT!!!!
Dum dum dum dum dum!
I don't trust any church that keeps dead bodies lying around in the building for weeks at a time.
So Chico no longer has HEART!
Is it true?
Sad!
Dragon Dad
I'M CONFUSED MZCHIEF. WERE YOU TALKING ABOUT YOURSELF WHEN YOU SAID "whiny weasel who is best ignored".
CUZ IT SHORE SOUNDS LIKE IT.
Yeah, I bet king obama kissed his China a$$, too!
3:24! I love it--the Nuge for Pres.
"I still don't understand how the conservative talk show hosts refer to 9/11 as an "act of war." An act of war declared by what country?"
Well, Islam, you fool. Just ask them (or not), they tell you publicly that their goal is to have the entire world subject to Islamic rule.
You might wanna quit bein' gay. It's kinda against their rules, and they're gonna win in the end. They're meaner than we are, and in the animal kingdom that's what usually wins. Not gay and nice.
Thanks a lot, Butt-Head
3:51 You don't know what you are talking about, so keep your ignorance to yourself.
I have a broken HART!
Chico is trash and that is all there is over there. Coach Hart is a great coach/teacher. Has anyone mentioned that there was 7 members of the varsity team that failed drug tests. Coach Hart wasn't the problem over there.
I am a teacher, and I would be very happy if someone paid me $75,000. to back my bags and go home!
6:28 - I know the Mormon church is a joke. Joseph smith was a delusional, false prophet who is undoubtedly burning in hell right now for spreading his blasphemous pollution that is the book of Mormon.
Dum dum dum dum dum.
3:24/5:49 please tell me you're joking, or smoking the new harvest. Ted needs to stick to stuff he does well: hunting and music. Don't ruin my memory of Ted rockin out to Stranglehold with a campaign media circus attacking his extremist blabbering; his chances of political success in anything, anything, beyond local politics, are absolutely nil. Him now living in Crawford, TX is very frightening.
SCANDAL.... Barry we have not caught the last SCANDAL wanted for MURDER. 1994-1996 Crime Chief Eric
Rosenstraum of the Ryan regime.... that's 200 felony cases dismissed then.. next?
From 8:49, we forget alot of things, reckon?
So you wonder who the Republicans can run for President in 2012 and you name several and then finally you wonder who is left?
That's the problem, too many of the "leaders" of the party have moved too far left.
You'll see, someone will step up to the plate that those of us who want to go back to the Republican platform can embrace and we'll be off and running and we'll retake the WH. Just wait!
3:51
That explains the smell around Decatur there’s a Mormon church there.
8:01pm #1 How do you know? #2 Can you prove your accusations? You just sound like your an ignorant name caller with no substance to back up your empty accusations.
Coach Hart was always under the gun by parents and some school board members who thought they had great athletes and should win district (playing Boyd) every year if they had a good coach. They are not in reality because some of the better players would not show up for "two a days". The coach should have played the Freshman and set their butts on the bench because I'm going to do whay I want to do want win games or build character.
Coach Hart would send someone to pick up a kid if they did not have transportation to get to practice. If a kid got hurt and didn't have insurance, he would make sure he got medical treatment.
Eventually, he was going to be let go by the school board. The next coach will not be able to win withut parental and school board support for discipline. Our son was lucky to play in the Brownwood program when Gordon Wood was coach and later under other winning coaches. It is about discipline and hard work. Until a school board and superintendent figure this out, Chico will not have a program starting in junior high that will constantly win district.
But a school board that spends our taxpayer dollars on a new high school when enrollment is dropping due to parents transferring their kids out of the district, is not going to make good decisions on anything. They are the ones that need to go, not Coach Hart.

Not that it matters, but I think Barry wasn't attacking TCU but pointing out that local fan support for the football team hasn't been as great as it could have been.
DFW is a market that has a lot going for it, so locals have a lot to "hang their hat on", so to speak. They can throw their support behind the Cowboys, Rangers, Mavs, etc. If you live in Lubbock...what do you have? Red Raiders.
"Coach Hart would send someone to pick up a kid if they did not have transportation"
(Any parent who was dropping off their kid for practice would have done this)
"If a kid got hurt and didn't have insurance, he would make sure he got medical treatment."
(NO ONE is denied medical coverage at any hospital whether they have insurance or not.)
LMAO What's your point?
Jim,
You must belong to the same family of ediots that clapped at the meeting after they announced he had signed the resignation agreement. The reason most of the supporters didn't go was because they had already found out that HE had signed the agreement. The deal was done way before the meeting - Pete didn't want a public scene, which speaks even higher of his character.
Speaking of character - how professional is it for the admin to discuss the agreement with the Mess before it was signed. As far as the 75,000 - That is a small portion of what his contract entitled him to. He could have held out for his entire contract - again, he showed good character by requesting what he had to to support his family.
The problems at Chico have nothing to do with Hart - but because he is not there - the problems will get worse.....drugs, sex scandals, poor grades.
Until the real problem is addressed Chico will continue to lose - on and now off the field.
You want to change it? - Restructure the Board, the admin and get someone that is not manipulated by has been, alcoholic, loud mouth ediots!
10:47....I don't have to prove anything. Why don't you prove me otherwise. Show me Joseph Smith wasn't a false prophet.
11:29 Well, here we go. He was a Prophet called by God personally in vision as in similar callings in the Bible. He was called upon to restore the true Church of Jesus Christ back onto the earth just as it was in its original form in the New Testament with: all the priesthood offices, priesthood authority, revelation, gifts of the spirit, correct doctrines and teachings such as correctly defining who God and Jesus Christ are, the role of the Holy Spirit, ordinances such as baptism, sacrament etc.
Also, understanding man's purpose in God's plan in terms of answering such questions as: Where did we come from before we were born? Why are we here on earth experiencing mortality? And where do we go when we die? He restored the purpose of Temples, which were a huge part of Old & New Testament worship.
He received many revelations involved in the detail of the restoration and they are published in the Doctrine & Covenants as scripture. He also translated the Book of Mormon into english by the gift and power of God, which is another testament of Christ from another civilization. So, he produced new scripture to join with the Bible in testifying of Christ as our savior.
He prophesied of many things that came to pass and some that are yet to come to pass. Many other things, but these are just the things off the top of my head.
Now your turn.
i guess the moss boys finally got their way
1:47....you proved nothing with that. Where's the proof? Joseph Smith still continues to burn in Hell.....you will to if you don't renounce this Mormon garbage. Save your soul while there is still time.
Dum dum dum dum dum.
No Hart No Hart the Dragons they got no Hart! No Hart No Hart the dragons they got no Hart!!!
Double Fake Norm
Re the 2012 Presidential elections, my money is on John Boehner on the Republican side of things. He certainly appears to be auditioning for the part any chance he gets.
2:17 Why don't you disprove what I said? Or disprove Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God? Can't, right? Just as I've said from the beginning of this; you are nothing but an empty name caller with nothing to back up your lack of substance names and accusations. That makes you dum dum dum dum dum.
Chico has the biggest bunch idiots on the school board i have ever seen. Hart was not not the problem. It all started with the parents. I live in the chico district but my kid will never attend there.
4:01.....my point is that you can't prove that Joseph Smith didn't make it all up. (because, in all likelihood, he did make it up........at least to a REASONABLE person it seems that way)
If u believe it, you are, in fact dum dum dum dum dum.
ANSWER; Next year is 1A ball. Since 1983 Chico is .5, 1.5 or 3 whole students over the UIL cut-off requirements. Next year is 26 years over due, 16 players VS 55 players are not equal.
The MOSS MEMORIAL DISTRICT could have a chance.
Midnight Lurker: Don't put too much money on Boehner. The reason you see him all the time is he happens to be the minority leader.
He might want to run, but he will NOT get the nomination. He's too moderate, almost as moderate as John McCain and we see what a fiasco that turned out to be. The party has not changed one plank in the platform, but the moderates have refused to stand on them, NO MORE! Those of us to the right of the moderates (I don't me far right) are doing everything in our power to regain the party.
My fear is that if the moderates don't shut up and sit down, that a third party will emerge and that means more wins for the DIMwits1
Most of those griping, don't even have a Dragon on the field. Why, they are all in drug rehab or jail, or can't play due to grades.
Chico may start winning some games because they are moving their JV squad to a 1A division where they can compete. But, if the parents don't straighten out their kids, they'll be looking for 5th graders to take a varsity position.
That being said, there are good people in Chico - but they get over-looked because of all the @&*#. If I were them, I'ld do what Pete did. Take the money and run!
6:42 pm I gave you more evidence than the evidence the Bible gives that is proof that Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Noah, Elijah etc were prophets and proof that Jesus Christ is the redeemer of the world and that Peter, James and John were true apostles. Can you prove they are not false prophets?
2:49....Uhhhhhhhh....the Bible wasn't written by some delusional scumbag who threw a seerstone(that he also used to hunt buried treasure) into a hat and stuck his face in it and pretended to dictate words from some golden plate. Don't tell me that's not how it happened, because, although the mormon church does not readily admit to that story, there are at least 3 credible eyewitnesses who say it is the way it happened.
Better be careful trying to question my religion....remember, if you tear mine down, yours goes with it.
Oh, almost forgot.....dum dum dum dum dum.
8:47 Wow, you just keep digging yourself deeper and deeper. Don't you see that your exact same accusation towards how the Book of Mormon came to be can be used to condemn the Bible too. It could easily be said that each writer of the various books in the Bible were delusional scumbags and trying to deceive those who would later read their works. Once again you skirt around the questions and challenges I have put your way. Throughout our dialogue you haven't directly answered one time. I can only conclude that you really don't know what the heck you are talking about and that you truly are a coward. All mouth of name calling and accustions but nothing to back it up. Good luck living in your deceived world.
I was already aware that Boehner is minority leader, thus all the camera time; however, I have been quite amused that he appears (to me) to be auditioning for the part of President next time around. I can't hear what he's saying because when he is on camera, I'm falling over laughing.
9:39am, It never became a scandal. BG is right. No one wanted to talk about it. I got silenced. Life goes on..... Wise County keeps its constable.
anyone know who this chick on the right is? she is really hot. or a link that has other pics of her?
