When I decided to get a B.A. instead of a B.S. at ETBU, I knew I would have to take a course in some foreign language. And since Greek was the World language when Jesus was born and since our New Testament was originally written in Greek, I decided Greek would be my foreign language choice.

November 19, 2018 - When I was in High School, Mrs. Heyer’s typing class was my favorite. Even though I never learned to use my “little fingers” as part of my home keys, my love for it made me the fastest in the class and I was soon typing 75 net words a minute on an old Royal Manual typewriter. I liked typing so well that I typed sentences with my fingers as I walked along the streets of Center, Texas.

November 5, 2018 - When I returned from a Lion’s Club meeting one day, Pam met me on the porch. “Doug, you just missed a true Mountain Man,” she said. “He came to see your gun shop… he was tall, wore a big hat, and had a Sam Elliot mustache. He said he’d be back tomorrow.”
