Random Thoughts (again)

  • I can't believe I'm in this good of a mood seeing as how I was brought into reality by a tractor plowing outside our bedroom at 5:30 this morning! Who said country living was quieter?
  • "Only the brave know how to forgive...A coward never forgave; it is not in his nature." ~ Laurence Sterne
  • My favorite son, Isaac, finally posted again with a Homeless Update and Who am I and What am I doing?. A very nice looking blog, son. I wish more people would comment, and I'm sure they will in time (comments do make a bloggers day). One bit of fatherly advice... regarding your music: I'm not saying you shouldn't pursue writing and being original, because you should. But it kinda seems to me that some of the best just went ahead and PLAYED. They played covers, old stuff, new stuff, stuff they were unfamiliar with, stuff they'd played all their lives... And pretty soon THEIR stuff 'just came out.' So, I'm glad you've got the urge to play again. You have always seemed to tick better when you were doing it more often (even if it maybe doesn't always "feel" better). Okay, 'nough advice from the old man. :)
  • From newlivingtranslation.com: "Don't forget to do good and to share what you have with those in need, for such sacrifices are very pleasing to God." Hebrews 13:16 (From the Study Bible note: "Wealth is a gift from God, but we must be wary of becoming too dependent on money. The best way to loosen money's grip is to give generously to God's work.")
  • It's Tuesday and the sun is shining. What a great reason to celebrate!!! God is good. But also... He is.

Peace, friends. Revolution(ate).

Just wanted to help make a fellow bloggers day!

You definitely *sound* like you are in a good mood today.

Enjoy the sunshine for me too...it's nearly gone by the time I leave work. Maybe a walk at lunch is in order.

If Isaac wants comments, he's going to have to start dissing Emergent!

Kaysera,
Thanks for the comment. Hope you had a chance to take a walk. It is a tad nippy though.

Whisky...laughin'...out...loud.

Another way (apparently) to pimp your blog is to say you're going to quit (ummm, I've seen this around lately).

There were about 8 snowflakes here yesterday. My kids saw 'em, I missed 'em. Durn. Might be the only blizzard we get in these parts.

This post made me smile when I read "...my favorite son, Isaac...". I've referred to my favorite daughter that way, too;). Off to post a comment to him :).

Robin,
That's odd that you call your daughter Isaac. Poor girl.
:)
