“It is not good enough for things to
be planned - they still have to be
done; for the intention to become a
reality, energy has to be launched
into operation.”

• An Officer was waiting to make
a left hand turn onto Dean Forest
Road, checking the oncoming traffic when he noticed the blue Ford
Explorer in the left hand lane moving very slowly. The driver then
came to a complete stop, then finally proceeded. The driver kept
his eye on the Officer as he creeped
past at 30mph in the 45mph zone.
The Officer pulled out behind it
to make a traffic stop and see if
the driver was having mechanical
trouble, also wary of the suspicious
driver. He plugged the Explorer’s
license plate into his on-board computer and found that the SUV was
stolen. By now, another Officer had
joined the slow pursuit, so the Officer hit his blue lights. The driver
slowed again, tapping his brakes
as they approached the intersection with I-16, and then the man ran
the red light and accelerated as he
turned onto eastbound I-16.
The Officer followed at a safe
distance and saw the Explorer
coast into the emergency lane and
run off the road, the driver jumping out and fleeing on foot into the
wood line. The Officers pursued
and caught him as he entered the
woods, ordering him to get on the
ground and drawing their weapons
as the man took a defensive stance.
Sadly realizing he’d brought fists
to a possible gun fight, he surrendered. The man was searched and
the Officers located his crack pipe
in his right pocket. (Was there any
doubt?) They also found a paycheck
written out to another man in his
pocket. The man said he’d found
the check in the truck. Next, they
found a woman’s wallet beneath a
blue jacket on the passenger seat.
There were also several notes
in the man’s pocket, black writing
on white pieces of paper. Those
notes were instructions to the
bank teller, for example, “Do not
trip the alarm. No dye packs. Unband the money. Give me the 100,
50, 20, 10.” The man, now seated in
the rear seat of the patrol car, said
“That’s my bank-robbing note.” He
admitted he was planning on robbing a bank in Rincon as well as several Wells Fargo banks, and that he

3rd Annual Thanksgiving
Village A Success
By Ashley Engleford
aengleford@gmail.com
G.L.O.W. Ministries held their
3rd annual Thanksgiving Village
on the morning of Saturday November 17th, providing 210 families with the goods necessary to
prepare a traditional Thanksgiving
feast. These families received various assistances from the non-profit
ministry over the past year and
were invited to the village. They
were driven to the ‘Fruits of the
Spirit” farmers market via wagons.
Each one of the 210 families
went home with a basket loaded
with fresh fruit, vegetables, rice,
potatoes, and a turkey! At the last
tent of the market they were given fresh pastries and home baked
goods. After all, what’s Thanksgiving dinner without some sweets!?
The children had the opportunity
to roast hotdogs and marshmallows on an open pit fire, as well as
have their face painted.
Along with tending to the physical needs of the families, G.L.O.W.
volunteers met spiritual needs by
being an example of Christ’s character, sharing the love of God, and
by praying over each family. In
the words of G.L.O.W. Founder
Wendy Turner, “We have shared
life together with these families,
we have cried together, and had
great times together and now is the
time to bless others with the abundance that we have been given…..
We seek to be the hands and feet
of Christ” A variety of Effingham
County churches and individuals
contributed to the success of this
year’s event and without them it
simply would not have been possible.
With the economy still in disarray, many people out of work, and
numerous families struggling to
keep a roof over their head and put
food in their stomachs, now is the
time as Mrs. Wendy said for those
of us blessed with more (even if it
is only a little) to share that abundance with those less fortunate.
Don’t look at the people struggling
as though they are beneath you because they are not and always remember this… ’There but by the
grace of God go I’.
Our lives can be turned upside
down in a single second and it
could be you or I who has to seek
assistance from such groups as
G.L.O.W. to get us through a difficult time in our lives. Whether it
is a home to live in, money to pay
an electric bill, food to feed your
children, family who love you just
7 Questions That Will Determine the Success
or Failure Of Barack Obama’s Second Term
by John Hawkins
When
British
Prime Minister
Harold Macmillan
was asked what
might knock his
administration
off course, he famously responded, “Events, dear
boy, events.” There’s a lot of truth
to that. At any point in time, an
unexpected event can throw the
political world into turmoil. However, more often than not, it’s not
the blindside hit that gets you so
much as the freight train you’ve
seen coming for miles.
When Barack Obama came
into office, he had a number of
serious challenges to deal with
and not only has he effectively addressed very few of them, many
of them have worsened on his
watch. In fact, the thing Barack
Obama has proven most adept at
in his first term is pointing the finger elsewhere. He may have been
able to shift the blame from himself to George Bush, the filibuster,
the Supreme Court, Republicans
in Congress, Rush Limbaugh, ATM
machines, the economy in Europe
and everything under the sun,
but after four years and counting
in office, more and more of the
American people are going to be
interested in results rather than

as you are, or eternal life with Jesus, there is plenty to be thankful
for. What are you thankful for this

excuses.
How Barack Obama handles
those issues may not only determine how he’s viewed by the
American people, it could conceivably impact the reputation of the
Democratic Party for decades.
1) When does the economy recover? At some point, you have
to think that the natural vitality
of the economy will reassert itself
and get the country moving again.
On the other hand, just as FDR’s
tinkering caused the Great Depression to extend out for over a decade, Obama’s socialistic policies
could continue to stall economic
growth. Obama’s determination
to increase taxes, expand government, take over new industries and
generally make war on productive
industries and people -- along with
the impact of our debt, the soft
housing market, the implementation of Obamacare and the hundreds of billions of dollars in new
regulations he’ll impose -- will all
be drags on economic growth. Can
the economy recover and start
pumping out jobs at a decent clip
despite all of Obama’s handicaps?
Your job may depend on it.
2) What happens in the Middle
East? Barack Obama embraced
the Arab Spring that’s throwing the Middle East into turmoil.
That means if Egypt and Libya fall
apart, Obama gets the blame. If
Egypt were to end its peace treaty with Israel, Obama would also
be at fault. Then there’s Iraq and
Afghanistan. He put timelines in
place in both nations, which was
a very risky strategy. An implosion
in either country would reflect
badly on him.
Additionally, our relationship
with Pakistan, which is a highly
unstable, nuclear armed nation,
has deteriorated significantly on
Obama’s watch. We also can’t
forget that Iran is still pursuing
nuclear weapons, which would
be a terrifying prospect for Israel
and could create a nuclear arms
race in the Middle East. Barack
Obama may be great at managing
the media, but he isn’t effectively
managing any of these issues right
now and the potential is there for
things to quickly spiral out of control.
3) Will there be key Supreme
Court vacancies? There are four
Supreme Court Justices that are
over seventy years of age including Antonin Scalia (76) and Anthony Kennedy (76). Unlike the
conservatives on the court, the
liberal justices slavishly vote based
on what serves liberalism, not the

What Are You Thankful For?
What I’m thankful for this year ...
This year I have so much to be
thankful for, I am not sure where
to start. In August my dad was diagnosed with bladder cancer and had
to have his bladder removed. Then
a week later my husband was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and
had to have his thyroid and lymph
nodes removed. Until then I had
never really had to experience the
Big “C’ with anyone close to me
and now the two most favorite
men in my life were both having
life changing experiences with radiation and possibly chemo.
Just the going back and forth
for tests, doctor visits, helping
with my mom while my dad was
sick, taking care of my husband,
and trying to work full time was
so overwhelming. But I just prayed
and asked God for the strength to
help get me through this. God had
a plan for me to help me, but I had
no idea what it was going to be.
Then right dab in the middle of
my crisis, my biological daughter,
who I had never met, called and
told me that she wanted to come
to Savannah and meet me. Oh my
gosh, I was so excited, this could
not have come at a better time in
my life. You see God put her in my
life just at the perfect time. Some-

law. What that means is that if
Obama were able to replace one
or both of those retiring justices,
it’s not an exaggeration to say
that the Constitution would for all
intents and purposes cease to exist because there would be five liberal votes for almost anything that
the Left wants to do.
4) Will we have any large scale
terrorist attacks in the United
States? Al-Qaeda is certainly degraded, but it’s not spent, the border is still wide open, the Obama
Administration doesn’t seem to
take Homeland Security all that
seriously, and the remnants of Bin
Laden’s organization would love
nothing better than to show that
it’s still a powerful force by launching a large scale attack in the United States.
In the wake of a serious terrorist attack, there could certainly
be a rally-round-the-flag effect,
but the American people have
become very complacent at this
point and are assuming the government has it all handled. If that
turns out not to be true when the
perception is that this isn’t a big
issue for Obama in the first place,
the reaction could be savage.
5) Does Obama get caught up
in any scandals? Obama is not a
“letter of the law” sort of guy. He
plays it fast and loose, lies if he
gets in trouble and assumes the
times we just have to sit and be patient and all things will turn out if
we have faith.
As of date my dad is cancer
free, my husband is cancer free
and my reunion with my biological daughter went great and we are
now communicating on a regular
basis (many thanks to Ty at Holiday Inn Express in Pooler for making our reunion a success!). I have
a great church family and my own
family to be thankful for in my life.
Susan Edwards
My Special Blessings ...
I have so much to be thankful
for. First of all, I’m thankful for
God, who sent His Son, Jesus, to
die on the cross at Calvary for my
sins. I’m thankful for my church
family, friends and neighbors. I’m
thankful for my husband, Tim, and
pooch, Pebbles.
Holidays can be sad for me since
I lost my dad, mom and brother.
I’m thankful for my freedom to
worship my Lord. I’m thankful for
good health, a nice home, my car
and food to eat.
I feel like I am blessed in so
many ways. God is so good to me
and my family. God said to be faithful to Him, and ask and you shall
press will cover for him. That has
already produced Fast and Furious
and the Benghazi cover-up -- two
scandals with body counts. Neither Fast and Furious nor Benghazi
has reached its apex and you can
be sure that there will be other significant scandals in the works just
because of Obama’s habitual try,
lie and deny way of tackling issues.
Then the question becomes,
how aggressive will the Republicans be and will there be any major
mainstream media organizations
aside from Fox that have enough
integrity to go after Obama? Although it’s unlikely that Obama
would be impeached, realizing
that Obama makes Nixon look like
a choir boy would be no small matter.
6) How bad will our debt crisis
get? Republicans seem to be more
willing to consider tax increases,
but Democrats still don’t seem
to have any interest in tackling
entitlement reform and their willingness to make other significant
cuts to the budget seems to be extremely limited as well.
On the other hand, although
it could just be a negotiating posture, the early indications seem to
be that the Democrats’ strategy is
to go over the fiscal cliff and then
try to blame Republicans for the
slowdown. The good news is that
would undoubtedly help a great
deal with the size of the deficit,
but it could also slow down the
economy.
Unfortunately, unless Obama
receive. I feel like I have so many
blessing to last me a lifetime.
God is good all the time! So,
believe in Him and He will take
care of the things that matter most
in your life. Don’t worry about tomorrow. Live your life today to the
fullest!
God Bless America!

has a change of attitude, it could
conceivably be the one opportunity for large spending cuts in the
next four years. If that turns out
to be the case, expect our credit
rating to slide even further. If
Western Europe gets its spending
issues under control and investors
feel more comfortable in putting
their money back in those countries, it’s even possible that our full
transformation into Greece could
start before the end of Obama’s
second term.
7) How difficult will the implementation of Obamacare become?
While working to get Obamacare
passed, the Democrats just said
anything and everything that people wanted to hear about Obamacare. Now, there are a lot of
people who are expecting a nearly
free, well-run medical care system
that covers everyone and allows
people to keep whatever they like
about the current system.
Instead, they’re going to see
tax increases, a decrease in the
number of available doctors, businesses dropping insurance because of Obamacare, delays, uneven implementation, and price
increases among a plethora of
other problems. In other words,
it’s going to be a Hurricane Sandy
for the American medical system.

Being Green
At the store checkout line the
young girl cashier suggested to the
older woman customer that she
should bring her own grocery bags
because plastic bags were bad for
the environment.
The woman apologized and
confessed, “We didn’t have this
green thing when I was your age.”
The young clerk replied, “That’s
what is causing our problems today. Your generation did not care
enough to save the environment
for future generations.”
She is right... our generation
didn’t have the green thing in its
day.
Back then, we returned milk
bottles, soda bottles and beer
bottles to the store. The store
sent them back to the plant to be
washed, sterilized and refilled, so
the same bottles could be used
over and over. They really were
“recycled”.
But we didn’t have the green
thing back in our day.
We took our groceries home in
brown paper bags, that we reused
for many purposes. Most memorable, besides household garbage
bags, was the use of brown paper
bags as book covers for our schoolbooks. This was to ensure that public property, (the books provided
for our use by the school) were not
defaced by our scribblings. Then
we were able to personalize our
books on the brown paper bags.
But too bad we didn’t do the
green thing back then.
We walked up stairs because
we didn’t have an escalator in every store and office building. We
walked most places and didn’t
climb behind the wheel of a
300-horsepower vehicle whenever
we had to go two blocks.
But she is right. We didn’t have
the green thing in our day.
Back then we washed the baby’s
diapers because we didn’t have the
throwaway kind. We dried clothes
on a line, not in an energy-gobbling
machine burning up hundreds of
watts... we used wind and solar
power to dry our clothes back in
those days. Kids wore hand-medowns from their brothers or sisters instead of getting brand-new
clothes all the time.
But that young lady is right; we
didn’t have the green thing back in
our day.
Back then, we had one TV or
radio in the house -- not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small
screen the size of a handkerchief
(remember them?), not a screen
the size of the state of Montana. In
the kitchen we blended and stirred
our food by hand because we didn’t
have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged
a fragile item to send by mail, we
used wadded up old newspapers to
cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic
bubble wrap. Back then we didn’t
fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used
a push mower that ran on muscle
power. We exercised so much by
working that we didn’t need to go
to a health club and run on treadmills operated by electricity.
But she’s right; we didn’t have
the green thing back then.
We drank from a fountain
when we were thirsty instead of
using a cup or a plastic bottle every
time we wanted a drink of water.
We refilled fountain pens with ink
instead of buying a new ones and
we replaced the razor blades in a
razor instead of throwing away the
whole thing just because the blade
got dull.
But we didn’t have the green
thing back then.
People took the streetcar or bus
to go downtown and kids walked
or rode their bikes to school instead of turning their moms into a
24-hour taxi service. We had one
electrical outlet in a room, not an
entire bank of sockets to power a
dozen appliances. And we didn’t
need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 23,000 miles out in space in
order to find the nearest burger
joint.
But isn’t it nice of the current
generation to point out how wasteful we old folks were because we
didn’t have the green thing back
then? Please forward this on to another selfish old person who needs
a lecture from a smart young person... We don’t like being old in the
first place, so it doesn’t take much
to anger us!

clocked a car coming off I-516 into
Garden City at 60mph in the 45mph
zone. He made a traffic stop and
smelled the odor of burnt marijuana coming from the car. The Officer searched the car and found

• At 1:30am, a Deputy noticed a
blue Mitsubishi eastbound on Blue
Jay Road with no illuminated tail
lights. He began to follow the driver and made a note that the man
crossed the fog line several times
before he made the traffic stop.
While waiting for the man to find
his license, the Deputy smelled the
odor of alcohol. The driver was arrested on DUI charges and taken
to jail.
• Deputies were dispatched to
a road rage incident in Guyton
where a father in a Toyota Tundra
was chasing his daughter and her
boyfriend in their Honda Accord,
reaching speeds over 110mph on
Hwy 17 North. Fueled by a recent
Nascar race, they even traded
paint, sideswiping each other
while racing along the highway.
When the Deputies got them
stopped, the Dad explained that
he thought his daughter may have
taken his wife’s mother’s 4 carat
diamond ring. The daughter on
hearing that, explained that if it’s
the ring she’s thinking of, it’s inside her jewelry box. Dad was cited for having an expired tag, but
no other charges were filed.

• A juvenile came home from
school and found the garage door
open to their home. He went to
the front porch to see if the key
was still in it’s hiding place, and
it wasn’t. He went inside and retrieved his cell phone, then went
back outside to call Mom. He was
hiding behind a tree in the front
yard when a man came running
out of the house. Fortunately,
nothing appeared to be missing
due to the interrupted burglary.
(That’s a young hero...)
• A Deputy was dispatched to a
Springfield area residence and saw
the children walking towards Hwy
21 from the home. He stopped to
find out what had happened, and
the brother and sister explained
that the offender had gotten mad
because the sister had spilled
the baby’s milk. The older sister
ended up grabbing a garden hoe
and began throwing things inside
the house, so they left to avoid injury. (No sense fighting over spilled
milk...)
• Deputies were dispatched to
the Kroger parking lot where a
man and his wife had gotten into a
physical argument over food. The
husband was scratched up pretty
bad, so the wife was taken into
custody on family violence charges. (The closest I’ve ever come to a
fight over food was when I’ve said
something about my wife’s cooking.)
• A Deputy was parked on Standard Lane due to a seperate incident and was monitoring traffic in
the area around 10:30pm. He noticed a white car with no tag light

the violation. The woman handed
over her limited permit license
which allows her to drive to and
from work, to and from doctor’s
visits, and to and from school.
“Where you coming from this
time of night?” he asked. “Burger
King... I wanted a Whopper...” She
was taken to jail.
• Around 8pm, Deputies responded to another domestic dispute
that began because a man had
been drinking and was becoming disorderly, threatening everybody else in the house. The
Deputies explained to him that
he just can’t act that way towards
other people and he’d have to go
to bed if he couldn’t behave himself. He agreed he wouldn’t cause
any more problems that night and
went to bed. (Gotta call Deputies
to convince a grown man to behave! Give him his teddy bear and
tell him Night-Night!)
• A Deputy spotted a man walking down a side street from Sandhill Road. The man was clearly
under the influence of some kind
of drug, and admitted that he’d
taken some pills with another man
earlier. A woman was with the
man and convinced the Deputy
he could stay at her house and he
wouldn’t be a problem any more
that night. The Deputy warned
the man that he’d go to jail if he
was caught walking the streets
again that night. Sure enough,
about an hour later, the Deputy
spotted the man standing on the
fog line on Sandhill Road, swaying in the breeze in a circular motion. The man could barely speak,
slurring his words and mumbling
in response to the Deputy’s questions. The Deputy then reminded
the man of his warning earlier
and told him to put his hands behind his back and lean against the

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Regarding Our
“Trash Paper”...
Dear Editor,
We like to read small town
newspapers, however, your newspaper has become a “trash” paper.
Most of us are intelligent enough
to enjoy current events, local news,
entertainment and Home and Garden.
Your paper is “old politics”
and poor editorials, and who cares
about Police Reports? We are tired
of writers who give personal opinions on negative political issues.
I realize it’s your paper - but,
perhaps the businesses who buy
advertisements (you have plenty of
them!) would like a better format,
also.
The paper has such poor articles that most of us put it down before reading the ads. Thank goodness it’s free!!
And please, don’t insult the
people of South Georgia again.
Some of us are less fortunate than
others, but we deserve our retirement checks. We love our country
and God loves us all.
Thank you for allowing my
thoughts.
Just Venting,
Anna H.
(an 80 year old, white,
professional lady)
Dear Anna,
Thank you so much for taking
the time to let us know what a crappy newspaper we publish. Please,
don’t sugarcoat it; tell us how you really feel! I don’t think Thanksgiving
would be the same without your letter.
The reason we have Police Reports in the paper is because that was
the only thing I could find to write
about that was purely local, that
didn’t require a degree in journalism to accomplish, and we wanted to
keep our readers informed as to the
criminal element that lives amongst
us. Not to mention that if I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard “I love
your Police Reports,” I could retire
and let you publish this newspaper!
I would also like to correct the
one final point you made about insulting the people of South Georgia.
I assume that was a reference to the
opinion column written by Gene
White, our guest “liberal” columnist
who pointed out last week that the
people of the Old South need to get in
step with the social issues, like gay
marriage, abortion, and support an
immigration policy that’s “fair.” He
wasn’t just referring to South Georgia but to the Old South states that
voted for Romney rather than Dear
Leader.
Again, thank you for taking the
time to write to us. We’ll try to do
better in the coming new year!

The Flat Tire
My tire had a staple in it. Of
all times for this to happen -- a flat
tire. But when is a good time for a
flat tire? Not when you are wearing
a suit and you have been traveling
for nearly five hours and, adding to
this bleak picture, nightfall is approaching.
Wait; did I mention that I was
on a country road? Okay, now you
have the picture. There was only
one thing to do: call AAA. Yeah,
right. The cell phone I bought for
security and protection in moments like this isn’t in range to call
anyone. “No Service” it says. No
kidding!
I sat for a few minutes moaning
and complaining. It’s a male thing.
Then I began emptying my trunk
so that I could get at the tire and
tools needed to get the job done. I
carry a large plastic container filled
with what I call “just-in-case-stuff.”
When I am training or speaking, I
love to have props with me. I hate
leaving anything home so I bring
everything...just in case.
Cars buzz by me. A few beep
sarcastically. I hear the horn saying
“ha ha!” I say, “You’ll get yours!”
Darkness begins to settle in. It’s
becoming a bit difficult to see. The
tire is on the passenger side, thank
God, away from all the traffic, but
making it difficult to benefit from
the headlights of passing cars.
Suddenly a car pulls off the
road behind me. In the blinding
light, I see a male figure approaching me. “Hey, do you need any
help”? “Well, it certainly isn’t easy
doing this with a white dress shirt
and suit on,” I said. Then he steps
into the light. I literally was frightened.
This young guy was dressed
in black. Nearly everything imaginable was pierced and tattooed.
His hair was cropped and poorly
cut. He had leather bracelets with
spikes on each wrist. “How about
I give you a hand”? he said. “Well,
I don’t know . . . I think I can . . .
“ “Come on, it will only take me a
few minutes.” He took right over.
While watching him, I happened
to look back at his car and noticed
for the first time someone sitting in
the passenger seat. That concerned
me.
I suddenly felt outnumbered.
Thoughts of car jackings and robberies flashed through my mind. I
really just wanted to get this over
and survive it.
Then, without warning, it began to pour. The night sky had
hidden the approaching clouds. It
hit like a waterfall and made it impossible to finish the tire change.
“Look, my friend, just stop what
you’re doing. I appreciate all your
help. You better get going. I’ll finish after the rain stops,” I said.
“Let me help you put your
stuff back in the trunk. It will get
ruined,” he insisted. “Then get in
my car. We’ll wait with you,” he
insisted. “No, really. I’ll take care of
everything,” I said.
“You can’t get in your car
with the jack up like that. It will
fall. Come on. Get in,” he said as
he grabbed my arm and pulled
me toward the car. Crack! Boom!
Lightning and thunder roared like
a freight train. I literally jumped in
his car. “Oh, God, protect me!” I
thought to myself.
Wet and tired, I settled into the
back seat. Suddenly a small frail
voice came from the front seat of
the car. “Are you all right”? she
said as she turned around to face
me. “Yes, I am,” I replied with
much relief seeing the old woman
there. It must be his Mom.
“My name is Beatrice and this
is my neighbor Jeff,” she said. “He
insisted on stopping when he saw
you struggling with the tire.” “I
am grateful for his help,” I said.
“Me, too!” she said with a laugh.
“Jeff takes me to visit my husband.
We had to place him in a nursing
home and it’s about 30 minutes
away from where we live. So, every
Monday, Wednesday and Friday,
we have a date.” She laughed and
shook her head.
“We’re the remake of the Odd
Couple,” Jeff said as he joined in
laughing.”
“Jeff, that’s incredible what
you do for her. I would never have
guessed, well, ah, you know I . . .”
I stumbled with the words.
“I know. People who look like
me don’t do nice things,” he said.
Silence. I really felt uncomfortable. I never believed that I judged
people by the way they dressed. I
was angry with myself for being so
stupid.
“Jeff is a great kid. I’m not the
only one he helps. He’s a volunteer
at our church. He also works with
the kids in the learning center at
the low income housing unit in our
town,” said Beatrice.
“I’m a tutor,” Jeff said quietly as
he stared at my car. Silence again
played a part now in a moment of
reflection rather than the uncomfortable feeling that I had insulted
someone. He was right. What he
wore on the outside was a reflection of the world as he saw it. What
he wore on the inside was the spirit of giving, caring and loving the
world he wanted to see.
The rain stopped and Jeff and
I changed the tire. I tried to offer
him money and, of course, he refused it. As we shook hands I began to apologize for my stupidity.
He said, “I experience that same
reaction often. I actually thought
about changing the way I look. But
then I saw this as an opportunity to
make a point. So I’ll leave you with
the same question I ask everyone
who takes time to know me. If Jesus returned tomorrow and walked
among us again, would you recognize Him by what He wore or by
what He did?

Have You Sharpened Your Axe?
A young man approached the
foreman of a logging crew and
asked for a job. “That depends,” replied the foreman. “Let’s see you fell
this tree.” The young man stepped
forward and skillfully felled a great
tree. Impressed, the foreman exclaimed, “You can start Monday.”
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday rolled by. Thursday afternoon the foreman approached
the young man and said, “You can
pick up your paycheck on the way
out today.”
Startled, the young man replied, “I thought you paid on Friday.”
“Normally we do,” said the
foreman. “But we’re letting you go
today because you’ve fallen behind.
Our daily felling charts show that
you’ve dropped from first place on
Monday to last place today.”
“But I’m a hard worker,” the
young man objected. “I arrive first,
leave last and even have worked
through my coffee breaks!”
The foreman, sensing the
young man’s integrity, thought for
a minute and then asked, “Have
you been sharpening your axe?”
The young man replied, “No
sir, I’ve been working too hard to
take time for that!”
Our lives are like that. We
sometimes get so busy that we
don’t take time to “sharpen the
ax.” In today’s world, it seems that
everyone is busier than ever but
less happy than ever. Why is that?
Could it be that we have forgotten
how to stay sharp?
There’s nothing wrong with
activity and hard work. But God
doesn’t want us to get so busy that
we neglect the truly important
things in life, like taking time to
pray, to read and study scripture or
to listen to “the still small voice of
God.”
We all need time to relax, to
think and meditate, to learn and
grow. If we don’t take time to
sharpen the axe, we will become
dull and lose our effectiveness.
Take time today to sharpen
your axe!

A Thanksgiving Day Prayer
By Scott Wesemann
Lord, so often times, as any other day
When we sit down to our meal and pray
A young boy was lying on his
back by a stream holding a string
in his hand. A stranger walked up
to him and asked, “What are you
doing?”
“I am flying a kite,” came the
reply.
“But I don’t see any kite,” said
the man.
“I don’t either,” said the boy.
“But I know it’s there. I can feel the
tug on my string.”
Like the boy, we are here on
this earth. But, our Lord, like the
kite, is beyond us in heaven. The
string that binds our hearts to our
Father in heaven is our faith. And
the Holy Spirit is the One who connects us to Him and gives power to
our prayers.
We may not see God all of the
time, but through faith we know
that He is there - above us, beyond
us, connected to us, waiting on us
to call upon Him and feel His “tug.”
God wants us to stay in touch
with Him through our faith in Him
and feel His presence in our lives.
Visit us at www.TheSower.com
We hurry along and make fast the blessing
Thanks, amen. Now please pass the dressing
We’re slaves to the olfactory overload
We must rush our prayer before the food gets cold
But Lord, I’d like to take a few minute more
To really give thanks to what I’m thankful for
For my family, my health, a nice soft bed
My friends, my freedom, a roof over my head
I’m thankful right now to be surrounded by those
Whose lives touch me more than they’ll ever possibly know
Thankful Lord, that You’ve blessed me beyond measure
Thankful that in my heart lives life’s greatest treasure
That You, dear Jesus, reside in that place
And I’m ever so grateful for Your unending grace
So please, heavenly Father, bless this food You’ve provided
And bless each and every person invited
Amen!

A Runaway Bride
Guyton Resident Takes the Cake at Mighty Eighth 5K; Campbell top finisher
By Stephen Prudhomme
Kristen Bowers visited the
Mighty Eighth Air Force Museum
in Pooler twice last Saturday, once
running, the other time walking.
Both times, she was flying high.
Bowers, a resident of Guyton,
was one of 202 runners competing in the third annual B-17 Flying Fortress 5K. The race benefits
restoration of a World War II B17plane, the City of Savannah.
The top overall finisher was
Jesse Campbell, 18, of Guyton,
who ran a 17:02. Francine Nzilampa, 30, ran an 18:24 to top the
women’s field, edging 16-year-old
Zachary Jones by 1 second to place
second overall.
Bowers, wearing a bridal veil
and skirt, finished in 25:04 minutes. Later that day, she returned to
the museum to marry Jeremy Turner, a football and baseball coach at
South Effingham High. Per tradition, Turner was not at the race.
Even if he had been, he wouldn’t
have been running.
“He has bad knees,” Bowers says. “He’s probably at Waffle
House. He’ll be doing boy things
with his friends.”
Turner is no stranger to races,
however. Last year, at the Savannah Rock-n-Roll Marathon, he proposed to Bowers after she crossed
the line finish of the 26.2-mile race.
“This kind of ties it all together,”
says Bowers, adding that she wasn’t
nervous right now (after finishing
the 5K). “They waived the running
fees after finding out I was getting
married here. They kind of catered
to me.”
Bowers defintely proved she’s
the fastest runner in her family,
finishing ahead of her mother and
sister. She says she heard plenty
of encouraging words during the
race.
Campbell, who’s also from
Guyton, likewise heard plenty of
encouraging words as he left the
field behind and defended his title.
A member of the track and cross
country teams at Effingham High
School who wants to run in college, he says he probably could
have finished in around 16 minutes if there had been closer pursuers. Campbell notes it was a little
cold at first but was great weather
for running. The course is very flat
and offers a nice view around the
pond on the JCB property, he adds.
Campbell is a member of Air Force
JROTC at his school and visits the
museum twice a year. He likes the
idea of the race benefiting restoration of the B-17, saying it makes
him want to do it even more.
Jones also runs track in high
school, at Richmond Hill. He says
Kristen Bowers visited the Mighty Eighth Air Force Museum twice last
Saturday, once as a running bride-to-be, the second time to exchange vows.
Nzilampa caught up with him in
the numbers are comparable to the
the last mile and passed him as they two previous years. She describes
made their way to the finish line. “I the course as very scenic and nice
tried for second,” says Jones, who
and flat and says JCB is so geraattributed his higher finish from
cious in allowing the race to be run
last year’s race to better training. “I on its property.
was getting tired. She earned it.”

who finished in 18:43. In a dash

to the finish line, Jillian O’Malley, to the plane as a “national artifact

I just spent the last several
days traveling from Missouri to
Kentucky trying to time my arrival
at each place so that the deer
season were either in prime rut
or just before. Even though one
can be pretty certain as to when
these times come, the weather and
other conditions also affect how
productive these times actually
are. For instance, a couple of years
ago, the rain had been so plentiful,
the soybeans and corn were still
not harvested when I arrived. This
made hunting extremely difficult
because there were so many places
for the bucks to hide. Heat also
makes a difference. It seems the
warmer the weather, the less active
the rut can be. All in all, much like
the weather itself, it’s not a perfect
science and definitely not a sure
thing.
There are, however, occasions
when you are there when all the

stars line up and that’s when it’s
really fun. This year my timing was
not only pretty good away from
home, but I’ve found a way to be
back at home just when things
are getting good here. I guess one
could say that right now hunters
are simply trying to chase the rut;
to be where it is happening.
It’s not much different than my
friends who fish for stripers. They
know pretty much from day to day
where these fish have moved to
and the simply move to where the
fish are. What a concept! – to move
where the action is.
In Henry Blackaby’s best-selling
book called Experiencing God;
Knowing and Doing the Will of
God, he gives some simple advice;
find where God’s at work and join
Him. In deer hunting terms we
might say, “Find where the deer
are rutting and hunt there.” In
fishing terms we might say, “Find
where the fish have moved and fish
there.”
Again, what a concept! Too
many times in our spiritual life we
spend too much time asking God
what He wants us to do, where He
wants us to go, where are we to
invest our resources, and just why
He isn’t doing something in our
lives. What Blackaby tells us to do
Gary Miller
www.outdoortruths.org
is look around and see what God is
doing in other places and in other
people and when we discover that,
it is our invitation to be involved.
Find where God’s at work and join
Him.
Let me ask you... Do you think
God is at work in our world? If you
do, ask Him to show you where He
wants you involved. Remember,
when He reveals it to you, it will be
His invitation to you to join Him
where the action is. Make sure
you’re ready.

High School Basketball Review
With the 2012-2013 basketball
season upon us, some of the area
teams will showcase their talents
over the Thanksgiving Holiday.
New Hampstead High out of Pooler
open their high school season
against Islands High on Friday
afternoon in the first game of the
Coaches versus Cancer Gregory
Oliver Tournament, which was
organized by Jenkins High Athletic
Director Yvette Rushing.
Oliver coached the Warriors
through the 2011 season before
succumbing to cancer. The Classic
takes place over a two-day period
at the Savannah Civic Center.
For New Hampstead, this will
be their introduction into the
Georgia High School Association’s
Class-AAA action. The team holds
the distinction of having the first
female coach of a boy’s team for the
Savannah/Chatham County Public
School System.
She is not the first female
coach of a boy’s team in the state
of Georgia, according to Earl
Etheridge of the Georgia High
School Association. The Phoenix
open the tournament up against
Karl DeMasi’s Island High Sharks.
School: New Hampstead High
Coach: Tonya Mackey
Years at School: 1st
2011-2012 record: School is in first
year of existence
Nickname: Phoenix
Key players: Spencer Goodine,
junior, 6-3, forward; Jaleel Daniels,
senior, 5-6, guard; Djuan Gaston,
senior, 6-1, forward; Russell
Clanton, freshman, 6-1, forward.
A Year of Firsts for New Hampstead
By C. Edward Wilson
The newest addition to the
Savannah-Chatham Public School
System is Hampstead High located
in Pooler. With a mascot called the
Phoenix, look for the team to rise
from the ashes and make a name
for itself in the annals of area sports
competition immediately.
In their first year of high school
basketball, the school opted to
immediately start varsity sports
competition. They are in the region
3-AAA. In another first, the head
coach is female. Head Coach Tanya
Mackey is a Savannah native. She
is the first female head boys high
school basketball coach in Georgia.
Her most recent job was that of
head women’s basketball coach at
Mid-eastern Athletic Conference
member, South Carolina State
University. Her father Thomas
Mackey was the long-time
equipment manager for Savannah
State University. She brings a
storied history with her as a good
solid coach.
To help her get off on the right
track, she hired one of the best
former coaches in the area to be her
top assistant. Former basketball
coach and Principal James Green
accepted the call when Mackey
came looking for help. Green, who
won a state championship with
Johnson High in 1992, is one of
only two local coaches that have
pulled off the feat of winning it
all in the state of Georgia on the
hardwood. The other is Savannah
High Coach Tim Jordan.
“This is going to be an
interesting season,” said Mackey.
“A lot of the players came from
different schools and haven’t
played together before,” she added.
The boy’s team has players
from Groves, Windsor Forest,
Beach and Savannah High. They
have six senior, three juniors
and sophomores each, and one
freshman.
Rebels Will Have to Depend on
Quickness
Head Coach: Jeff Grimes
2011-2012 Record: 14-11
Years at School: 4th
Players to watch: Brandon Bostic,
senior, 5-11, guard; Jabari Bell,
senior, 5-10 guard; Zy Carter,
junior, 6-1, guard.
The Groves boys’ basketball
team will be small this season,
but have enough experience to go
10 deep on its bench, according
the Head Coach Jeff Grimes. “We
will have the ability to outwork
other teams,” said Grimes. “We
have some extreme quickness on
this team and we can’t make any
excuses for our lack of size.”
To prepare for this season,
the Rebels attended the Savannah
State University summer camp,
and played in the summer league
at Beaufort and Metter. “We will
have to be competitive and try to
put ourselves in position to win the
region this year,” Grimes added.
School: Effingham County
Coach: Donnie Arrington
2011-2012 record: 26-3
Years at school: 5 years
Nickname: Rebels
Players to watch: Jakeenan Gant,
junior, 6-8, center/forward; Jay
Wright, senior, 5-10, guard; Ryan
Wilkins, senior, 6-2, forward; J.J.
Johnson, senior, 6-5, forward;
Deaundray Rhett, senior, 6-4,
forward; Jakeel Bartly, senior, 5-8,
guard; Mondre Green, senior,
6-3, forward; Ontonio Johnson,
senior,6-2, forward; Hunter Morris,
junior, 6-1, small forward.
State Championship or Bust for
Rebels
By C. Edward Wilson
Effingham County has only
one goal this season and that is to
win it all and bring home a state
championship trophy from the
Georgia High School Association
post-season tournament.
Head Donnie Arrington has
been in coaching for the past 32
years. The last five have been at
Effingham County and he feels
his club is ready for the challenge
presented to him this year. He felt
last year that his ball club didn’t
play well down the stretch and
it cost the team from advancing
further in the post-season.
That won’t be a problem this
year as three of his starters return
from a team, which suffered only
three losses in 29 games. The
key returning player will be 6-8
junior forward/center Jakeenan
Gant. According to Arrington,
every school in the Southeastern
Conference has inquired about the
player and a couple has all ready
asked for a commitment from him.
So far this year, the coach has said
that senior Ryan Wilkins may
stay close to home and play for
Savannah State University. Coach
Horace Broadnax of SSU won’t
confirm, nor deny that the school
has recruited the 6-2, outside
shooting phenom.
Another hot property for the
Rebels is 5-11 point guard Jay
Wright. Probably one of the best
pure guards in the area, he has
the capability to be one of the best
players in the region and state this
upcoming season.
“All of the players played
for us during the summer,” said
Arrington. “The day after we lost
our last game last year, the players
were at the gym getting ready for
this season. We are going to play as
many kids as possible, because we
have a very deep bench,” he added.

minute test. He was arrested and
taken to jail on DUI charges. On
the way there, he asked the Officer if he grew up in Hilton Head or
went to high school there. The Officer told him he was in Chatham
County in Port Wentworth, Georgia. At jail, the jail staff asked him
how much he’d had to drink, just

the Officer confirmed her fears.
That’s when she launched into a
