Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 ESV)

Notes &

Well Sen. Harry Reid has decided to postpone Tuesday’s vote on PIPA!
Does this mean they might actually find the time to propose and vote on a budget. They haven’t found the time since April 29, 2009 so I guess they probably won’t now.

So what does Facebook give priority to? Posted photos. And that’s where my idea comes in….
The idea is that you would either A) post the image as a wall photo or  better yet B) post an entire ALBUM of this image under a normal title  like “2012 Ski Trip!” or “A Crazy New Year’s Eve!”

A Facebook friend of mine has already done option B (complete with tagging people “in” the photos and adding captions about what a fun Christmas break she had) and it has generated a lot of discussion.   Waking up to a newsfeed full of these couldn’t fail to catch people’s attention.  Details here.
