It was the CPAP that had me most concerned. Roughing it for a few days never hurt anyone. Unless they can't sleep.
I'm glad you got some good sleep and I'm sure the girls were quite thrilled about showers. lol

He believes in the absolute necessity of being filled with the Holy Ghost. The issue goes more toward the why, and what these things represent rather than are they part of the Apostolic doctrine and Apostolica ®( see fourth thread).

Because of Dan's posting style in general but more specifically in a recent thread, I'd decided I would not discuss doctrine with him again. I can discuss superficial stuff, chit chat, but nothing deep with him. You're post is tempting me to reconsider, but honestly I've lost alot of respect for Dan lately. It'll have to be earned back and I don't know if he can do it or would even want to do it.

Mine is so severe right now that less than 15 minutes attempting to sleep without it and I wake up gasping for breath, so sleep is fought and REM is impossible. After three days of this, with wife fresh out of Emergency Room and two teen girls three days without a shower in tow, I accepted Daniel Alicea's kind offer of sanctuary. I guess even Superman has to ask for help on occasion.
Daniel has proven to be a most gracious host and does everything with his usual flair. When we arrived the room was lit solely by apple cider scented candles, there were Rose petals on the floor spelling Welcome Griffins Will You Stay with Me? unable to resist he took me to the stairwell dropped to one knee and offered a key to the house. This morning we went to University of Houston and had pictures made. In the next couple of days the Alicea/Griffin hurricane party website should be functional.

Dan is SOOOOOOOOOO romantic!

Alas, as a lover of truth, I must concede your correctness!
However, if I'm not mistaken, if one has been using the TM sign on a trademark and it can be proven for a period of time, then the trademark belongs to you even before you have filed.
So, if I can prove that the "apostolica tm" has been used by me for a period of time, then it's mine!
