This weekend will be Digital Graffiti competition at Alys Beach. For those of you that don’t know Alys Beach, this awesome area of 30A consists of all-white buildings with an architectural style that is totally unlike what you would expect here. The first time I drove through it I was completely taken by surprise at how absolutely beautiful it is.
With over 150 entries from around the world, artists will compete for over $6,500 in cash prizes. The art will be projected onto the pristine walls, and the event will run from 7 to 11pm.

This isn’t exactly breaking news,nor is it new that the ACLU is in the headlines. But,the long-common religious and spiritual traditions often found in official proceedings in many local public forums is subject to the scrutinizing eye of the American Civil Liberties Union
If you are a left wing radical apposed to prayer in a public forum or even PDR (public display of religion), jump ship now because you are bound to be offended. Maybe I’ll be offended by you being offended.
Coming from Big City Dallas, even back in 2001, prayer had long been banned from public events such as graduation ceremonies or public meetings. Even though I wasn’t as religious as I am now, I found great comfort when a prayer was said at the opening of my graduation ceremony in 2004. Even as recently as the ground-breaking of the new Airport a prayer was heard at the opening of the ceremony. I continue to find great comfort that amidst the much local and political turmoil and opposition, we all still seem to agree that this country was founded on the very freedom that we would never have had if it were not for the good graces from our Heavenly Father above.
