Intern(et)al Organs
It’s strange how entwined our lives have become with technology. In my mind, I’d thought I was almost exempt from this reality, because at our house we don’t have cable TV, high speed Internet–we don’t even have a land line for the phone. But as I’ve made the transition out of SonRise, I’ve discovered that Continue reading

Take Me Out to the Ballgame
What a beautiful, beautiful day on the Eastern Shore! I went to the Delmarva Shorebirds game (local Class A minor league baseball team). They played the Lake County Captains, and it was a pretty lame game until the eighth inning. It was so bad I almost left before the action started. It didn’t help that Continue reading

Top 10 Reasons I’m Fat
(10) The other day I stopped at Espresso Wave for a coffee. The girl working there offered me a free cinnamon twist. I said no thanks. She asked if I was sure. Who can say no twice to a free cinnamon twist? (9) While I’m between jobs, I’ve had more opportunity to visit Carolyn’s classroom. Continue reading

Your Jerkness Will Find You Out
Yikes. This afternoon I looked at my blog’s dashboard and discovered that someone found my blog by doing a search on “when ministers act like jerks.” What’s up with that? I can’t stop laughing, but I wonder if I should be offended! Continue reading

The Hungry Hippos Are Back
This is pretty much the coolest video ever. It even beats out Uncle Rico’s homemade classic. Watch it many times. Many, many times. Over and over. And then watch it again. I wasn’t able to embed the video onto this site, but you can watch it on YouTube here. Continue reading

Clutter Must Die
Clutter is like dust. I have trouble preventing its accumulation. A while back I read Little House on the Prairie, and I was struck by how simple their stuff was. They didn’t have much–only the things that really mattered. I mean, for Christmas one year, the kids each got their own drinking cup. That’s pretty Continue reading

The Museum of Bad Art
I think I’ve found my new favorite museum. Located in Dedham Square, Massachusetts, the Museum of Bad Art states that its mission is “to bring the worst of art to the widest of audiences.” How cool is that? Their website boasts that their exhibits display “the best bad art ever assembled in one museum.” To Continue reading

And You Thought You Had A Weight Problem
When Carolyn and I were at the National Zoo in D.C. last Friday, we watched three different elephants walk across their massive scale. A little elephant went across it, followed by a larger elephant, followed by a massive, 9,000-pound hulk of an animal. Nine thousand pounds! Dag. Here’s a little help to put that in Continue reading

The Ultimate Hungry Hungry Hippo
This video is a classic, some of Jenna’s best work. It was a big hit at Coast Concerts back in January. Continue reading

Good Friday?
Today is Good Friday. Kind of ironic to call it that. I’ve always found the day to have mixed emotions: it’s good for those who benefit from Christ’s death, but how horrible an experience for Him to endure! Calling it “Good Friday” just seems kind of… well… selfish. How ’bout we call Easter “Good Sunday” Continue reading
