Saturday had gone pretty much as planned. We were just finishing up a long day of serving at our church. With sound checks and two complete run-throughs of the service, coupled with a half-hour commute each way, those Saturdays are long and tiresome. Especially for small children. On our way home, Ian (our six-year old)…

New Legislation
Heard on the news today that some state senators introduced a bill to impose further restrictions on snowmobile users. More laws. More restrictions. More legislation. The news piece cited the two deaths this past year as the reason for the new laws. OK, now every life is important. Every life has value. But TWO PEOPLE?…
The Borders
Every nation has borders. Stakes claimed to a certain region of earth. Boundaries to keep their stuff in and your stuff out. Every kingdom has a line of demarcation that delineates where you are in, and where you are out of that provincial territory. The same would seem to be true of the Kingdom of…
A Different Perspective
Did you ever ask God for something and not get it? You really felt like your motives was pure, your heart was in tune with God’s heart. To your knowledge, there was not any sin in your life that was blocking God from giving you what you were asking for. But still, your prayers are…
Stories
Our latest Netflix rental is Season 1 Disc 1 from Star Trek Voyager. We just started watching it two nights ago. Our local Fox network carried the show every night at midnight for a LONG time, so Jen & I used to watch every night! It was great! We love the show. The stories, the…
Live Like You Were Dying – Tim McGraw
So I have to sing a COUNTRY song this weekend. COUNTRY song. I said COUNTRY SONG!!!. And for some time now I have been lamenting that. I was wavering between hysterical laughter and a strange desire to vomit as I rehearsed the song the other day…. 🙂 I really, really, REALLY don’t like country music….
Need A Longer Break?
Well, since I am passing along silly addictive games… I found this one the other day on the Veggie Tales site. 🙂 Read the information on the link as it’s a bit more involved than slapping a penguin with an ice bat. 🙂 Click the image above for a demo.Click here to play!
Need A Break?
My sister passed this game along to me. You click the abominable snowman to get him ready, then a penguin drops from the cliff and you hit him as far as you can. Your distance is displayed with a little flag stuck through the penguin when you’re done. Click the image above for a demo.Click…
Sport Utility Vehicles
We rented VeggieTales: A Snoodle’s Tale recently from NetFlix and I can’t get the Silly Song out of my head! It’s soooo funny! It’s a couple of yuppies in their nice sweaters doing their mundane tasks in their 4 x4 sport utility vehicles. The song is great! They are quite creative those BigIdea guys… Here’s…
Peace – Addendum
I just remembered I had another story I wanted to share related to my blog this morning titled, Peace. I realized as I was thinking about where I had placed my trust, that I was not what I thought I was. Now, this is not self-flagellation for past sins. I understand that to the best…
