Thanks, both!

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

The Houston Buffaloes(Buffs) were the Triple-A affiliate of the Colt 45s. The Houston Buffaloes began their first season in 1888 under the name "Houston Babies". The unusual name stemmed from the fact that they were the last to join the new Texas League.

I always thought that the Buffs were the Triple-a affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals?

They were---twice. From 1920-1942, then from 1946-1958. They became independent for 1959
and 1960, but then a Cub affiliate for 1960-61. The Buffaloes were never a Colts/Astros
affiliate.
