For those who weren’t at RidgePoint this Sunday let me tell you that you missed an awesome service. Timm spoke about leaving the 99 sheep to get the 1 lost sheep and how as a church that is what RidgePoint’s goal was – the 1 lost sheep. We had a video showing individuals who either [...]

Good times…
Posted in Just for Fun, Personal on September 24, 2008 | 2 Comments »
As you will recall back in July, I wrote a post (Are You Pondering) in which I talked about people at fast food places yelling “Hello welcome to [insert name of restaurant]” when you walk into the door. Well, today a couple of co-workers and I went to that same restaurant, and of course, they [...]
Double Take

As I was shopping in everyone’s favorite supper center on Friday, something caught my attention. There between the men’s section and the baby section was a display of Christian t-shirts. I did a double take. Did I just see what I think I saw?! Christian t-shirts? In here?! I circle back to check it out. [...]
Bulls-eye

I love this cartoon. It is one of my favorite Far Side cartoons. But after the day I had at work yesterday, I think I will look at it a different way from now on. I believe it may hold the truth about the majority of our society these days. You may fit one of the [...]

I Will Rise…

I don’t know if you have the new Chris Tomlin cd or not, but if you don’t I want to encourage you to at least listen to the song I Will Rise. I heard the djs talking about it on The JoyFM, but didn’t get to hear the song when they played it last week. [...]
Cool Cat 2

I know you have all been waiting anxiously for more stories about Satchmo the coolest cat around. So here you go…
Another favorite pastime is his love of rummaging through the garbage can in my office. He loves to “read” the mail as I pay my bills. What he is searching for I have no idea, [...]
Where Were You…

Seven years ago today, where were you? Do you think back on the events of that day when the anniversary comes around? Do you remember where you were when you heard the news? Do you remember how you felt watching the TV coverage and listening to the radio? I do.
It all seemed so innocent at [...]
Serenity Now…

Do you remember the Seinfeld episode where George’s dad kept yelling the phrase “Serenity Now” all the time? He was trying to deal with the stress in his life by using this technique, but in the end it didn’t work for him or anyone else around him. There are many times where I wish I [...]
Olympic Recap – Final
Posted in Just for Fun, Personal on September 8, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I know I’m a little behind with this – sorry.
Here is my recap of the final week and closing ceremonies of the Olympics.
The final week is mainly dedicated to Track and Field, which I will say is not my favorite part of the Summer Olympics. I don’t really enjoy the track events and thanks [...]
And now…

A little musical interlude. Here are some actual country song titles that are a little too creative.
“I’d Rather Pass a Kidney Stone Than Another Night With You”
“Jesus Loves Me, but He Can’t Stand You”
“I’ve Been Roped and Throwed by Jesus in the Holy Ghost Corral”
“I Fell in a Pile of You and Got Love All [...]
Excuses…

Every now and then we can all use a good excuse to tell our boss. I thought I would share a few I ran across. These are reportedly actual excuses given by employees:
I forgot to come back to work after lunch.
A hitman was looking for me.
I forgot what day of the week it was.
My cat [...]
Strange sight…

On the way to pick my mom up for a doctor’s appointment yesterday, I saw a strange sight. I was behind a truck with a huge wire cage. On the cage was a sign that read “State Alligator Catcher. Caution Live Alligators.” On the back were all types of ropes in various sizes. There were [...]
The Good and The Bad
Posted in Just for Fun on September 2, 2008 | 2 Comments »
It’s that time of year again. Both my favorite time of year and the part I hate the most. It’s my favorite because it’s College Football season again. I just love College Football. The atmosphere of the games to me is just unmatched anywhere else. Plus with cable and my dvr I can pretty much [...]
