@gretald You should read the alternate ending zoe wrote. Link further up on page.
@christi-eaton I have heard that!!!!! I’m excited! But please tell me the fat guy with the two black patches on his eyes in not Podo? Please? I like the other characters, but that Podo is horrible!

@gretald thank you for welcoming me! I have heard a lot of how bestistest this place is, however I have no idea how to pronounce it. I have no clue what my favorite books are. It’s usually what I’m currently reading, but the ones I’ve read most recently include The Ranger’s Apprentice (I know I’m late, but I’ve only just started book two, so no…[Read more]

XD Thank you for your warm welcome! 😀
Yes, I do compose music, but I don’t actually play an instrument besides my vocal cords, which need autotune to fix up anyway. 😛 I do like fiddling around on the piano, though. That’s actually my favorite instrument. I’m currently working on a couple of covers of some songs that I like. 🙂
Yeah.…[Read more]

Thanks @gretald. I don’t know if you could answer my first one: how does the court system in England compare with the American one?

Sorry guys. I’m going to start limiting my time on KP to one day a week. I’m on here far too regularly and it’s causing a bit of friction. I’m going to miss you all, but please feel free to still tag me as I will reply when I can.

@Bluejay I’ll miss you as well, but I’m glad to see you’re prioritizing your time. I’ll be praying.

Thank you @kate-flournoy. The prayers are really appreciated.

@bluejay
Aww, I’m sorry to hear that, but I totally understand. As awesome as KP is, it can be distracting sometimes (at least for me), which is, by the way, a me problem, not a KP problem (Hey! That rhymed). So I totally understand where you are coming from. I don’t know if you all have noticed, but I haven’t been on here as much lately…[Read more] -
Sorry to hear that. @bluejay. You will be missed. And I will definitely be praying for you!
-
@bluejay We will miss you!!! 🙂
-
@Bluejay I guess we’ll all have to super watchful about getting hurt now, with our doctor away. 😉
I’m definitely going to pray for you, and I hope the friction settles down. 😛 I’m sure it was hard decide this, but good for you. *thumbs up* -
I totally understand this, @bluejay. You’ll be in my prayers!
-
Sounds tough, but if it’s the right thing, go for it. I’d be happy to pray for you.

Ignore my spelling errors. 🙁 I’m terrible at checking my own writing.

*puts on thinking cap* Hrmmm… well, the first game that comes to mind is Blindman’s Bluff. Then there’s a similar but less ‘dangerous’ game that doesn’t have a name, where ‘It’ stands blindfolded in the middle of the room and one player at a time tries to sneak past (and around) him without getting touched.
And honestly I have zero head for…[Read more]-
Thanks for the other game suggestions. Yes, I’ve played that once before and it was lots of fun. @kate-flournoy
-
-
Do you mean the theme would be spiritual blindness, and you’d just play physically ‘blind’ games, or would the theme be physical blindness (probably not, but I want to make sure I get what you’re saying. 😉 )?
And ditto to what Kate said about fundraising…sorry. 😛 Have some sort of craft sale, maybe? *helpless shrug*-
No @emma-flournoy The theme is about physical blindness as that is what the fundraiser would be for. Helping raise money for tablets that stop River Blindness.
-
@bluejay, so sorry, no ideas at the moment, but I’ll let you know if I think of something. 🙂
-
@clairec No worries. Please do. 🙂
-
-
Okay. That sounds good. 🙂 What’s River Blindness?
-
@emma-flournoy River Blindness is cause by black flies that live down near the river. So people go do to get water and…how much information would you like??? It’s pretty graphic.
-
Ooh… all right, that’s good.
😛
I hope your fundraiser goes well if you do it.

Hmmm…. that’s a great thing to raise funds for, @bluejay! Who will you be giving the money to? (i.e. Compassion, Samaritan’s Purse, a missionary at your church, etc.) Well, the only games I can think of that haven’t already been suggested would be searching through something like rice, blindfolded, to find a small object, like a marble, pebble,…[Read more]
-
@julia-r The funds will be going to CBM.
Hey, I like that game. You say you’ve done similar games before, can you tell me how much rice would you put in the dish (how big is the dish) and are they allowed to use their hands?-
I would get a really big storage container (like utility bins) and fill it with as much rice as you can. Rice is cheap, so it shouldn’t be a cost issue. And yes, you can use your hands! It’s fun to rely only on touch to find things.
Another similar suggestion (this might appeal more to younger folks) is to put the pieces of a 6-piece puzzle in the…[Read more]

@bluejay Would it be indoors or outdoors? I know two games that raise money, but they don’t have a thing to do with blindness. You know the type of game where you try to throw a small object either into a basket or through a small hole in a board or to knock something down? You could charge 25 or 50 cents per toss. The other game is quite a bit…[Read more]
-
@sarah-h It would be indoors. Thank you SO much for all the wonderful ideas. I have decided not to run the fundraiser so a bit because I am so busy with prier commitments. But the ideas are wonderful and will be in a file for future reference.

I’ve been studying up on theme. Especially in movies. So I was wondering if you could give: Two movies that have, in your opinion, extremely powerful themes. If you could also give why those movies have such great themes or how they made the theme awesome then that would be even better.
