This little light of mine

The church service today was very inspiring.  It was all about our purpose as Christians.  Not the typical “we are created to worship God” kind of sermon.  In my opinion, too many preachers are consumed with this message and they miss the practicality of the whole thing…the “how to” part.  Many Christians believe that worship [...]

My Photogenic Mom

Today my mom and I went to lunch with some friends.  I saw a photo opp, and decided to take advantage of my beautiful mother…really, she has aged well, and she is and always has been very photogenic….but today, she couldn’t seem to KEEP HER EYES OPEN and the situation just got funnier and funnier….here’s [...]

Jesusland?

Jesus’ message is taken out of context and distorted to make money and create marketability, while the homeless man on the street goes ignored, someone to whom Jesus would have reached out.  -Ben Folds

Fogelberg & Barbaro

Dan Fogelberg passed away today.  For Kentuckians, he is best noted for the Derby song, Run for the Roses. This video not only features that song, but also one of the greatest Derby horses to ever run, Barbaro.  Its very rare that I pick the winning horse, but I picked him in the 132nd Derby…unfortunately, [...]

Everybody cuss on 3,…1…2..

Apparently, it was “cuss out each other in the middle of class day” at GPMS and I failed to get the memo.

I got some news today that I’m not quite sure how to take. See, we have a kid who is affectionately dubbed “the worst kid in the 7th grade” by pretty much everyone [...]

Lucy

I took a look in the mirror the other day and wondered when I became so blond. I mean, [...]

Still mmm boppin’

Its not often that I write two blogs in the same day, but since my last final is tomorrow morning, and I am pretty confident about it, I find myself with some time on my hands.
Ok, here goes. I am a huge fan of the band Hanson, and have been since the late [...]

Birfday?

I’m going to see Van Halen in January. With David Lee Roth, and Wolfgang Van Halen. I’m pretty excited. They rock.
Today’s blog is about the English language and how we seemingly accept the incorrect pronunciation of several words, two of which I will discuss today; birthday and pumpkin. First of all, the [...]

Let It Be

I gotta admit…when Russel kept saying ‘Let it be” today, I couldn’t get the image out of my head of the little boy singing the song in the movie Across the Universe.…and now, the image is in my head again…
I realized something for the first time today that I want to get your thoughts on. [...]
