I feel terribly saddened…

This was the pastor at the church where David Crowder is the worship pastor. Read the story for yourself.

I know I’m a dork…

Most of you won’t be really impressed with this but I think it’s cool. I really like Nascar (go Jimmie Johnson) and this is going to be a side by side, car vs. car race on November 20th in Homestead, Florida. I want to buy this car now. I’m kind of a dork like that. Go Gators!

Are you a linguist…

Here’s a site for your enjoyment. It will assist you in your general conversations.

I’m a little bit pumped right now….

For my birthday Tracy got me this sweet little gift. It’s a new game system but it has 40 original atari games in the internal memory. How sweet it is!

GGGRRRR…..

I don’t know if I’ve ever been as angry at a group of Southern Baptists as I am right now after reading this article. Our self-rightousness is climbing to unbelievable heights. Shame, shame on us.

Why, anyone by just giving you a cup of water in my name (as long as it doesn’t say Budweiser) is on our side. Count on it that God will notice. Mark 9:41 (The Message)

Why guys have it better than the ladies…

Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky. You don’t have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100. People never stare at your chest when you’re talking to them. The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected. New shoes don’t cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time.
Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend.
Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You almost never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. Everything on your face stays its original color. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck.
You can play with toys all your life. Your belly usually hides your big hips. One wallet and one pair of shoes one color for all seasons.
You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. You can “do” your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache..
You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.
No wonder men are happier.

believe it or not….

i’ve never taught a class on theology at my church. the closest i’ve ever come was teaching timothy george’s book amazing grace to a small group of guys with my youth group at beulah baptist in dothan, al. surprisingly, and excitedly, enough our church has asked me to teach a theology class for layman on wednesday nights. with as much as i enjoy theology (i get a kick out of reading theology books for fun) this is a rather scintillating proposition. i’m pretty excited about it! it shold be fun.

Escalation or ecstasy????

Katrina? The Iraq war? What really is driving up oil prices? Try Oil exec’s wallets. I’m really steamed about this one. I read today that Exxon Oil posted a quarterly profit of 10 billion dollars which is the single largest quarterly profit in the history of American companies. It must be rough dealing with the natural disasters, the Iraq war and the like while they pocket 10 billion bucks! Good grief.
