    What’s it take to become a sublime expounder of prose like yuroself?

    • Hey, this sounds really interesting. I would like to visit Australia some day. I seriously doubt I would take on the challenge of climbing Mt. Kinabalu, though a drive around the base would be interesting. Since the name means “the revered place of the dead”, I will add you post to http:/www.superwhamadyne.com/Death.

      Thanks for the pictures.

    Thanks so much for all Scripture verses in the KJV. I memorised all my verses in the KJV and appreciate the sound and beauty of the language. If I need help with certain archaic terms, I go to the NASB – the next closest to the original translation. Thanks and God bless.

    • Thanks for your blog Bethany.

      When I joined the Navy, the Navigators got hold of me and taught me to memorize Bible passages using the Topical Memory System.

      These verses are still in my memory today.
