The guy thaat broke into the school lives here so we’ve heard a lot about him. WOW what a guy. That’s how God wants us to live, do what it takes to help others.

YES, I just saw this last night on The Mandalorian!! So cool 😎

Was that the 4th Star Trek? I loved the one with the whales in it!!
January 4, 2023 at 9:33 pm
Yes! Star Trek IV, the Voyage Home. I just checked. I loved it, too. It was the funniest one, but also had an important message.
