Good day gentlemen, For several years now I've been blessed with good health, a roof over my head, food on my table, a wonderful family, the freedom and privelege to say God bless without fear of persecution (most of the time at least) and a beautiful farm to share in the upkeep of. How many of you have been blessed in this way throughout your lives? We always hear at this time of year that Christmas isn't about presents and "things." But it's not about some of the other stuff either. I've come to realize this over the years as I've walked with the Lord. On Christmas we celebrate the greatest and most wonderful gift that no one seems to want or accept. I've known the Lord for several years now and know in my heart that all these things that we're thankful for (and don't seem to know who we're thanking) come from God. It really hit me this year during thanksgiving. I came home for thanksgiving as usual. My father has been out of work for almost 2 years now. I open the refrigerator and see it overflowing with wonderful things to eat. I nearly broke down at that point. We did nothing to receive those things. My father didn't earn those things. They were purely blessings from God. So when you ask me what I want for Christmas, I guess I can't say much since I really need nothing. I simply want one thing. For each person to pick up that gift God sent us, unwrap it, and start reaping the blessings. God bless each and everyone of you and Merry Christmas. --old fashioned farmer

They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
