Heritage RBC Assemble!

Kind of, I guess. Actually, this morning, when I did it with my sister, it was kind of hard to tell how fast/slower I should be going. I went 4 seconds over the 10 minute time, because I was so used to speaking really fast. :)
Well, it's better to have lots of extra time, rather than run short on time!
InSoloChristo
Where did you hear that? The website still says 10…
His Servant
It says this: "Due to the length of the Bible memory passages this summer, the Oral Test Rounds at the Local Contests (not Nationals) will be extended from 10 minutes to 12 minutes for each child. Our intent is to allow every child a little more time to proclaim as much of God’s Word as they have committed to memory in a way that honors the words they are reciting, rather than have them feel pressured to rush through the passages. We want each child to be encouraged by their valuable investment in their relationship with Jesus and knowledge of His Word!"

BTW, Joy is me, as well. It's just my Bible Bee account :)
InSoloChristo
Okay… I was looking in the wrong place!
Matthew Minica
Oh, so at Nationals we'll only have 10 minutes? I was wondering…
His Servant
I guess so. They want to make competition stiffer, probably.
We Seniors got some work to do! :)
2 Corinthians 5:17
THAT IS WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!! I'm glad they increased the time limit :D
SavedByGrace
See y'all (Martin, Sam, Caleb, Nathan) at the bike ride in about an hour! (Funny how all of us going are on Memverse! :D)
EDIT–Oh, except for Justin. :)
Hiruko Kagetane
Man, things have been slow around here. I guess everyone's busy with the Bible Bee. Well, I might as well post an Odyssey quote here and go:
"So let me get this straight: our national flower won't die, but our national bird is already dead?"
Ryan Cummings
SavedByGrace
Wait a minute… I don't remember the flower and bird he was talking about. Could you refresh my memory, to make it funnier? :D (And can Kidsboro really be considered a nation?? :P)
Dance4Him
O.K. So you've already fallen of the face of the Earth,what else could happen?
His Servant II (Bethany)
@Christian - I really don't know what to say about your picture. I think that was pretty smart and funny what you did though :) I did what it said, and laughed out loud at what happened and then went and told Daniel and Amy about it - they thought it was funny as well :P
Very clever, indeed =D
Hiruko Kagetane
Wow, I didn't know we used this anymore. I thought that this would remain here unused to be found by Memeverseers of a future generation. We'd be adults and be like " Oh yes, there used to be a topic that us HRBCers used, it might be deleted, but why don't you go and see if it's still there?" But I digress. Anyhoo, it's cool to see this ol' place bein' used again!
EDIT: Very funny Christian! Mine only works when you're typing a report for school, when you're halfway done, press ctrl+z. That'll get you some results you won't forget easily!
SavedByGrace
Hiruko Kagetane
About what, this not being used until we're all adults, or about what ctrl+z does?
His Servant II (Bethany)
@Nicolas - I seriously liked it :) I don't think I'll ever forget that…I'm planning telling Carissa when she comes upstairs (my dad is in a meeting right now, and Carissa is downstairs right now, and can't come up…)…I know she will like it as well =)
SavedByGrace
Hey, you could surprise her with it–I did the same with Rosie. :P
His Servant II (Bethany)
Haha – good idea! I will! What did Rosie do when she did it?
Christian Alexander
That's so funny that you got such a kick out of it. I wasn't even sure if people were going to notice all that quickly, since I don't come here very often.
I was afraid people were going to be offended and accuse me of lying or something. ;) But I'm glad you liked it. I thought it was funny, so I thought others might think so as well. Let me know what Carissa thought! :D
δούλος
Hey, Christian random, Alt+F4 turned my computer off :) I like that though. :)
Emily H
Haha! That is so funny! =D I almost tried it before I remembered what alt f4 did. :P
δούλος
Sorry got it now, LOL I am very computer ignorant. :) The only bad thing was I was listening to Sinclair Ferguson in the background, and there goes. :)
Sarah
COS, I tried viewing your photo, and I was wondering, how did you get my desktop, icons and all, as your profile pic? :-)
Christian Alexander
I'm so sorry, Nathan! It's only supposed to close the Web browser, not shut the whole computer down! I'm sorry if that was any inconvenience to you. I feel so bad that I made you have to find your place again listening to Sinclair Ferguson.
Do you think I should change it, or is it really okay?
His Servant II (Bethany)
Well, I let Carissa do it and this is what she did "Hey! What just happened to the web browser?! It got shut down! lots of laughing from Bethany" Overall, I think she thought it was pretty funny :)
ChiefofSinners II
That's hilarious. :D
It's funny though, because, in reality, if I had enough power to make particular parts of your screen show a different image when you type in certain things on your keyboard, who knows what other things I could do! :P
δούλος
No, it's fine! I thought it was funny, after a while. :)
Ian R.2
It was funny once I got it. You freaked me out though when all my mom's stuff got shut down
Jarrett
VERY FUNNY!!!
Febah M.
Lol…good one Christian!! =)
Hiruko Kagetane
And again this topic is silent…………..
EDIT: Or like I say in church, hence the awkward silence…….
SavedByGrace
Well, maybe if you can come up with something useful to say….. :P
Hiruko Kagetane
Like what?
SavedByGrace
I dunno; maybe if you want to say something useful, you should say things other than what you would normally say… ;P
2 Corinthians 5:17
Something useful……hmmmmm……what did your preacher preach about on Sunday? :D
Hiruko Kagetane
@ SBG glares
We had a guest speaker, Mr. Timothy Brindle on Sunday. In Sunday School he gave us his testimony, in our Morning Service he preached about the "dark night of the soul" that David was experiencing in Psalm 13, and for our PM service our pastor expounded a Messianic prophecy in Isaiah……..54 I think? I'll have to check my notes again.
InSoloChristo
Isaiah 53.
Hiruko Kagetane
Well, I was close, right? Just off by one chapter!
δούλος
We're going through Romans. Came across a quote from WM "even the KJV edition that is tainted by the Mormons." in my own words but fairly close. I memorize out of the KJV, do you really believe the Mormons tainted it, I highly doubt it. Interested in your replies, I know your dad is busy so maybe Christian or Nicholas? or even Sauron :P
SavedByGrace
Could you tell me where that quote is? I'm not sure what he meant by that, but maybe seeing it in the context of the comment would help. :) Maybe he was being sarcastic or something, like usual… :P
δούλος
yeah, it's under TalithaCumora :) might have been being sarcastic I don't know. Hope you guys are doing well :)

Christian Alexander
Actually, I think what my dad meant, Nathan, was that the Mormons have their own edited version of the KJV. He didn't mean that the actual Authorized version is inferior; he just meant that their "Inspired Version" is.
δούλος
O.k. makes sense :) Where did you get your picture from?
SavedByGrace
I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I answered for him (I think… :P). That's him, actually, when he was about two or three. :)
Hiruko Kagetane
blinks Wow. That's all I can think of to say………..wow……….
SavedByGrace
Yeah, you don't want to see a picture of ME at that age! :P
Hiruko Kagetane
Yeah, I just might faint! But so would you if you saw a pic of ME at that age! ;-)
SavedByGrace
I don't think I've ever seen a picture of you except for those that were taken at least in the past year! :) It would be very interesting to see you when you were younger… :)
Hiruko Kagetane
Yes it would…………
