Wayne – even though he never blogs anymore and therefore it is pointless to link him AND he should blog more because his life is interesting….at least to his own family – had a great but painful comment yesterday about closing the comments on the famous Chuck Norris post. It is with fear and trepidation read more »
I have to put something on my blog because it’s been like 3 days. But I’m very busy today. Yes, Wayne, it’s the only day of the week I work. In the meantime, ponder this question… Will there be a sequel movie this summer that is good?
Today our neighborhood swimming pool is open. It snowed 2 days ago. The kids are excited, they are ready to go. Amy and I have decided to call this day “Lazy Parent Day” as neither one of us is getting in the water. Mainly because neither one of us owns a wetsuit. It’s a very read more »
So I’m sitting through this graduation and to end the service, this lady walks in with a BALD EAGLE on her arm. It is a HUGE BEAUTIFUL BIRD that looks like it would rip your face off. It just looks like a kick-butt bird with a wingspan close to 10 feet long. I’ll post a read more »
This is just further confirmation I have no business working with elementary children or their teachers. They spent an hour rehearsing the program, they spent the first 10 minutes of the program telling everyone again what they are going to do, then right before they do it, a teacher stands up and describes in detail read more »
The greatest movie ever made was released. My dad took me to see it in a drive-in theater on Colfax, across from Fitzsimmons. May have to watch that this afternoon with my kids.
I’m working sound for a homeschool graduation. I need the money. I thought it would be easy. In terms of technological ease – it is. In terms of what I have to hear and see….I just want to die. When you think of graduation, you think seniors. Not here. Kindergarten to 11th grade. Somebody explain read more »
I spent sometime and helped Kitty Smith set up her new blog. I must warn you…it’s pinkish. Lots of estrogen on the site so take the necessary precautions… By the way – I’m not saying that estrogen is bad. (Why do I have the feeling that isn’t going to help me much.)
This morning – 60′s, sunny, shorts and t-shirt. Lunch – cooler, 50′s, partly cloudy Mid-Afternoon – snow, slush, ice, dark as night Early Evening – sun peaking back out, temp rising. Only in Colorado.
This is part of our weekly e-journey through the gospel of John. Today is from John 5:16-47. I loved Justin. (Name has been changed to protect the guilty.) He was a quirky kid with a wicked quick (and dry) sense of humor. Most of the time, only he got his jokes. There circumstances in which read more »
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 As I was leaving the office, I ran into Rowland, our worship pastor. All I really knew about him was he was the sickest guitar player I’d ever been around, he’d help me find a house, fix a dishwasher, and install a garbage disposal. I decided to risk it. read more »
Would you want to be David Stern or Bud Selig or Roger Goodell and why?
Part 1 Part 2 I was writing through a couple of months ago and for some reason never finished it. While it’s true that the subtitle for these posts could be – “My Therapy Sessions,” that’s only part of the reason of writing it out. A couple of years ago I started this blog for read more »
So Ray and I get back from lunch and there is a convention going on in our parking lot. There are some engineers in one corner trying to figure out how to keep the lakes from showing back up and on the other side is an older guy sitting on a chair in the middle read more »
This is part of our weekly e-journey through the gospel of John. Today is from John 4:43-5:15. “Do you really want to be the person you are becoming?” “The reason I’m this way is because my parents are recovering alcoholics, divorced, and workaholics. I’ve had a hard life.” Eventually you’ll have a conversation like this. read more »
ESPN moved Joe out of the MNF booth next season in favor of Jaws. Thank you, ESPN for that dim light of hope but you’re still allowing him to write articles like this. The 5 Breakout Players for the 2007-2008 Season. Let’s review his picks, shall we? 1. Randy Moss, WR – JT says with read more »
My son and middle daughter love Slim Jims. There is just something warm and cozy about hearing your 7 year old princess yell – “Snap INTO A SLIM JIM!” As a food (?) they are not my favorite. Translation: I think they are nasty. They make up for it with cool commercials and one of read more »
Just when you think it’s safe to go back to the bus… Another new bus driver this morning. I heard her yelling this morning, over the bus across the street. Amy walked over to check out the situation, a couple more moms were there as well. As the bus drove off, there was a conspiracy read more »
I wasn’t planning on doing this but hey – it’s my blog. Last night was a special night if you happen to be in Little Rock, AR. It was the Senior Banquet at Grace. Of all the stuff I’ve had the privilege to be involved in, this is my favorite. It’s a night where we read more »
The Human Steroid is 10 dingers away from tying Henry Aaron’s all-time home run record and the intensity and opinions will just get hotter from here. Curt Schilling popped off his mouth…then apologized. Henry Aaron will NOT be at the ballpark Bonds breaks the record. Bud Selig might. We’re getting polls everyday telling us who read more »
And that’s okay. The Smith Family Colorado Adventure officially starts sometime tonight. They’ll roll in this evening…close on their house on Friday…take possession and unload their stuff on Monday. In the meantime – we are all living together in this house. I thought about inviting a film crew to film the chaos that will be read more »
“Dear Jesus … Please help Grant to have patience with those who are less technologically in the know then he. Remind him, that unfortunately, it is a PC world (by over 95%), and that he needs to love those who persecute him (Microsoft, et al). After all – you died for Bill Gates too. May read more »
This is part of our weekly e-journey through the gospel of John. Today is from John 4:1-42. One of my first post-seminary job interviews was for a student pastor position in a large church in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. One of the interview settings was a dinner with key leaders of the church. There were around 30 read more »
Current drama around the English household has revolved around our school bus driver. The old bus driver was a guy that all the kids liked, gave out some “free/extra” pe pass for good behavior. Last week a new bus driver showed up. Day 1 – Camber comes home crying saying the new bus driver is read more »
Thanks to Jlo for the heads up on Baskin-Robbins 31 cent a scoop special last night. I took the entire youth group out for ice cream…. Cost me $13. Gotta love that!
Last night at supper Amy was talking about how Mimi had lost a crown. Camber asked what’s a crown? So we told her that a crown is something that is placed over a tooth to protect it or replace it if it broke off or had rotted out. Sometimes their gold, sometimes their white. Cooper read more »
I’m not sure how I missed this game when it first came out. I played the original Splinter Cell and honestly, it was a bit cumbersome to learn – like most Tom Clancy games. This one however is stunning. It’s actually got three different games – a solo campaign, a versus mode, and the awesome read more »
Quotes from George Karl after last night’s loss….specifically talking about J. R. Smith – who has absolutely been AWOL in this series. “He’s done.” “And then, of course the one (half-court shot) with eight seconds to go, from 50 feet. I just love the dignity of the game being insulted right in front of me.” read more »
Clay asked a great question about the advantages of the Mountain Time Zone. Here’s my short list… 1. It’s got mountains. 2. When Monday Night Football ends it’s still Monday night. 3. It gets daylight at 6 am (or so I’m told) and stays daylight till after 9. 4. It’s got mountains. 5. It’s not read more »
