“There are things that money can’t buy, like manners, morals and class.” (Unknown) It was Andy Rooney who said, “I’ve learned that money doesn’t buy class.” More Andys: “I’ve learned that…You’re almost always better off keeping your mouth shut…Everyone needs a friend to act goofy with…It’s the small, daily happenings that make life spectacular”…I miss curmudgeon Andy. In your mind, what are some of the things money can’t buy? ;-) Jack
FROM WILLMAR REV: Can't buy me love, love Can't buy me love
I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend
If it makes you feel all right
I'll get you anything my friend
If it makes you feel all right
'Cause I don't care too much for money
For money can't buy me love (The Beatles, "Can't Buy Me Love
If it makes you feel all right
I'll get you anything my friend
If it makes you feel all right
'Cause I don't care too much for money
For money can't buy me love (The Beatles, "Can't Buy Me Love
===JACK: A favorite song of mine....The Love of God Is Greater Far than tongue or Pen Can Ever Tell.
===REV: I'll take yours over mine any day.
FROM OUTHOUSE JUDY: Money can’t buy: time with loved ones, good health, good friends, honestly, faithfulness, kindness, forgiveness, and true love!===JACK: ...and peace of mind.
FROM NORM'S BLOG: Occasionally, (and today was one of those days) I find myself writing blog posts that don't get published. It's not because I've reconsidered the thoughts that I've written, but mainly that I've reconsidered the nasty reactions that sharing those thought might provoke. It is just not worth the firestorm of ignorant retort that I might get.===JACK: You caught my drift?
FROM SHARIN' SHARON: Money can't buy a relationship with God. In fact, seems like--in my experience anyway--the closer a person moves towards God, the more the Adversary tosses everything he can at me, including feels like the kitchen sink or something. That old hymn "A Mighty Fortress is Our God" wherein Christians get sort of beat up is still very true though contemporary Christians with our inclinations to move around and make things more tolerable for ourselves try to mitigate the true cost of discipleship. Maybe in a future epoch this situation will be changed, don't exactly know what God's plans are for us. Best wishes to you and your wife for a very pleasant day.===JACK: In the end....God wins!
FROM TAMPA SHIRL: Money can't buy happiness.===JACK: I've never been to Disney World. How much does it cost to get in?
FROM ST PAUL: are you talking about Trump by chance??:):):)
FROM EILEEN: Beatles song..money can’t buy you ❤️ ===JACK: So....another Beatles' fan!
FROM BLAZING OAKS: Money does not buy happiness, although as John Wayne once pointed out, it's more comfortable to cry in a Mercedes, than on a bicycle! :-) My husband was chaplain to the IL Senate, and sometimes counseled wealthy senators, whose personal lives were far from happy,,,it can't buy any of the really needed things in our lives like health (although the poor often die younger than the rich, due to poor health care) rich relationships, wisdom, etc. It's still true that it is comforting to have enough to pay all your bills, and to live "comfortably"! Which many do not

have the means to do! LOVED Andy Rooney! He was a treasure!! We have a book by him; makes me want to re-read it! blessings,===JACK: Chaplains need chaplains, too. I wonder if Andy ever had a "religious friend?"
FROM RS IN TEXAS: Love, happiness, health, character, compassion, integrity, empathy....to name a few. For those we need the teachings and love of Jesus....along with the love of family, especially growing up.===JACK: Values that we embrace are usually the result of examples that we were shown and taught during childhood. Not being shown and taught values as a child carries over into adult life, too.
FROM NRFC: Money can’t buy a big brother who didn’t turn out to be a gangster. Thanks, God!
