Blogger Idol - Week Eleven - Pagent Questions



Just a quick entry this week, as I'm paying for the computer time at the hostel I'm staying at in Dublin. The theme this week is Pagent Questions, and we were to pick a question from this site, and answer it. (You got to see the range of questions they actually have for beauty pagent wannabes.)

The question: What is genocide?
The answer: I think that is when genos decide to end their life on their own terms.

Thank you, I'll be here all week.

Ireland Bound

Saturday morning, I will be leaving this town with seventeen others to spend a week working in Ireland. We will spending the week working at Dublin Christian Mission. We will be working in various tasks, from painting to assisting with their youth clubs. Not too much else to say right now about that. This will be the third team I've lead to work at DCM, and the second BFA team I've taken there.

Just thought I'd let you know, and put a photo of the team up. For those who are praying people, we could use some of those during this trip. Thanks.

Blogger Idol - Week Ten - Childhood Treasures


This week's theme is "Childhood Treasures," and I am going to keep it simple. I now present a few select childhood memories, events and things when I look back, I have to smile: (in no particular order - or even significance - just what is coming to mind tonight...)

1. Getting a Commodore 64 for Christmas.
2. My pet rabbit, Slipper.
3. Summer vacations with the family
4. Meeting the new girl in the fifth grade class, and thus the beginning of my first major crush.
5. A great fifth grade year, which was well over due after the hell that my fourth grade teacher created.
6. Wiffleball games in the backyard
7. Watching cartoons like Justice League of Superfriends, and then discussing them at school the next day, like they were the major news of the day.
8. My screen test for a Skippy Peanut Butter commercial, that could have turned me into a childhood star, followed by a life of drugs, "Where Are They Now Shows," and selling my sad story later in life.
9. Sneaking downstairs to watch the Soupy Sales Show.
10. The World's Fair in Knoxville, Tennessee - Where America fully introduced the world to the hillbillies.

Well, that will have to do for now....

Fair Warning to All Shopkeepers

Someone has put new urinal air fresheners in the men's room at my workplace. The problem is that they smell like Sweetarts. And I fear that if Pavlov's theory is correct, I will someday find myself losing bladder control in the candy isle of a grocery store. That would not be pretty. And all I will say is "Dang those urinal fresheners!" Oh yea, and, "Cleanup on isle three!"

Love This Title

Sorry if this offends anyone out there, but this has to be one of the best news titles I've read all month, "Zombies Push Jesus from Top of North American Box Office"

I'm actually debating going to see "The Passion of Jesus Christ" this week. The problem is that it is only subtitled in German over here, and my German reading ablility is slightly limited. So I ask is it worth it if I can't understand what is being said? Or should I just read the book?
