But we also know the darker side of youth ministry. The irritable, bonehead, […]

If this is true - man, there are going to be some incredibly confused Korn fans. Can you imagine the conversation when Brian tried to explain to them why he was leaving the band? I haven’t heard his talk yet but I am planning to download it and listen to it.

We went to Memphis and did the Picture People thing yesterday. You can see the cutie above and it was a great trip.
