When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. Unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the Earth which will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much hosed no matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteor. -Despair.com
My dad once bought a calendar from despair.com. He got a confirmation email entitled: "Let the Buyer's Remorse Begin" filled with such cheerful sayings as "why did you choose that calendar when the other would have been better. Just think of what else you could have bought with your hard-earned wages." & etc. & etc.
I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."

Sienna, I thought it sounded like Jack too.
And Sarah, despair.com is a great place to go if you want to start laughing.
Are you saying that laughter begins in despair?
