 An Early Valentine: For God So Loved The World:


A friend sent an early "Valentine" to see if it
will make it around the world by Feb. 14th.

For God so loV ed the world,
That He gA ve

BegottE n
SoN
T hat whosoever
Believeth I n Him
Should N ot perish,
But have E verlasting life."

John 3:16

Send it around the World

(Note the capital letters in the words.)

I recieved this from my uncle, who is in Iraq. It was very emotional for me, I nearly cried when I read it. I miss him a lot. I thought I would do as the message asks. I hope you'll do the same, religion bidding, and send it around the world.

Because of the way the Internet works, it's almost certainly made its way around the world already.

You know, that is probably the rudest thing you could have said in reply.

I was feeling all emotional and stuff and you ruined the whole thing. It doesn't matter if it may or may not have already made it around the world. Its the fact that I recieved it from my uncle, whom I love very much, and wanted to share that fact.

And now for something completely different:
YO! it's the green machine--
gonna rock the town without bein' seen
have you ever seen a turtle Get Down?--
Slammin' Jammin' to the new swing sound
Yeah, everybody let's move--
Vanilla is here with the new Jack Groove
Gonna rock, and roll this place--
With the power of the ninja turtle bass
Iceman, ya know I'm not playin'--
Devastate the show while the turtles are sayin:

chorus:
Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP!
GO GO GO GO
Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
GO GO GO GO

Lyrics, fill in the gap--Drop that bass and get the NINJA RAP
Feel it, if you know what i mean--
Give it up, for the heroes in Green
Just flowin, smooth with the power, kickin it up, hour after
hour
Cause in this life there's only one winner--
You better aim straight so you can hit the center
In it to win, with a team of four--
Ninja Turtles that you gotta adore it's the:

chorus:
Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP!
GO GO GO GO
Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
GO GO GO GO

Villians you better run and hide--
Because one day you might not slide
So Choose your weapon but don't slip--
Vanilla's in control with the flex of the mic grip
Rockin' the crowd the way it should be rocked--
With the Miami drop that you like alot
You know, its Hittin' like a Ninja Turtle when the bass kicks
in--
You better check your level
The power of the Ninja is strong--
Fightin' all the crooks until they're all cold gone.

chorus:(x2)
Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP! Ninja, Ninja, RAP!
GO GO GO GO
Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO; Go Ninja, Go Ninja, GO!
GO GO GO GO

It's okay, Steve. Vanilla Ice makes baby Jesus cry too.

No, no, it's not.
But for what it's worth, I certainly didn't mean to hurt your feelings or cheapen the sentiment of the thought. I'm glad your uncle was thinking of you, and touched by how deeply you care about him. If my observation -- that sending something "around the world" using the Internet happens almost by default -- lessened the impact of the scripture for you, I'm genuinely sorry.
