The Tie of the Day October 19 One of my Computer Ties

So I am sorry that I have not been posting for so long.  Since I don't have Wifi, I have to get my Internet service basically at the library.  Plus, I started my new job on Monday (Oct 20) and I had to do some studying for that before I started.  I am also sorry that Tie of the Day has been somewhat delayed.  Just have not been on much the past few days. I started working for US. Airways on Monday.  On Tuesday there was a test on 75 airport codes.  So since my hiring date, I have been studying over 153 airport codes.  You have to get a 90%  to stay employed.  So I studied hard and got a 97%.  I missed 2 codes out of 75.  So I will continue to go to work tonight. First Day of Work!

I still find it interesting what I find in reading the Bible, that parts of stories are left out.  As I posted before the story of Jacob and Esau, I was happy to see that there is somewhat a happy ending to the story.

And he divided the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids.  2 And he put the handmaids and their children foremost, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hinder  most.  3 And he passed over before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.  4 And Esau ran...

The Tie of the Day October 12  Mickey Mouse I think this is the first Mickey Mouse tie that I got.  So I have had this over 20+ years.

I find this as one of the most interesting stories in the Bible.  This of all the stories that have been told, this one could have been written by a soup opera writer.  We have the birth of twins to Isaac.  Esau being born first and Jacob coming second, holding on to the heal of his brother as he is being born.  Esau was loved by Isaac, and Jacob was loved by Rebekah.  Esau grows to be this great hunter, were Jacob is somewhat a home body.  Esau is out hunting one day and becomes faint. And this is where the birthright was sold. Genesis 25:  29-34. 29 ¶And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:  30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.  31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.   32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?  33 And Jacob s...
