Booty God Booty to the max

So I just found one of the best possible examples of booty God booty. Someone started following me on twitter, side note if you aren't following me you should, and so I went to look at their feed to see if I'd follow back. I'm not sure which way I'll go in this but let me show you a handful of the tweets. Pay attention to the bolded tweet. OMFG DROVE THE CAR FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, IT WAS SOOOOOOO SCARY AND F[...]ING HILARIOUSSSSSSSS! My mom was having a http://bit.ly/ ...this weekend could possibly turn out to be the best of my life! :)Has anybody heard of this swine flu epidemic … [Read more...]

My experience as dad: my son

The past couple times I talked about my kids it was my oldest daughter. The thing about being oldest is you get to do most things first and so it's easy to overlook when the others do things. My oldest son does get the advantage of being the first to do some boy things, like standing up to pee. OK that's not entirely true. When my daughter was potty training she walked in and saw how daddy did it then tried with her potty. Fortunately I saw and got her seated before she figured out how to straddle the little potty. He was definitely the first to pee in the woods though, and off the deck. … [Read more...]

Too many kids too small of a space

The formula for explosive drama is increasing the number of teens while decreasing the overall space. Each week we seem to have a couple of new kids. This is great but that leads to a bit of drama. Of course that isn't all that bad in itself but tonight it was rainy so everyone got packed inside instead of spreading out. This led to explosive drama. You could chart that into a ramp curve where the more teens and smaller the space results in exponential increase in tension. Yeah lots of fun.Tonight someone got smacked and did it pretty big. This was followed by some serious shouting down … [Read more...]

Choices

So we wrapped up Crazy Love last night and it was a good finish. I think the book needed some polish, but the over all escalation of the book really works. I think that is one of the reasons I like it. It read like one of the prophetic books of the Bible. I'm not saying it is prophecy or anything, but the way it builds is the same formula found in most of the minor prophets.Optional opening about the friginstasticness of GodLists of offenses to GodThe coming judgmentsThe means to avoid the coming judgmentshope and encouragement for the futureI really do love those books because they call … [Read more...]

I've been busy not lazy

Ok maybe a little lazy because I took Friday off, but I was busy posting a bunch of monkey butts over at FOTTSP. I think that is a reasonable excuse for missing a few days of posts. I took yesterday off too but I tries spending time with my wife because I'm working this weekend and next weekend is ATF, which will be awesome.I'm gonna follow up with my smoking cessation class I'm facilitating on Mondays now. It's a 10 week deal and is mandatory for teens that have been busted with tobacco. They gave me a group of all guys and they are pretty hard core ... or at least try to be. We've had 2 … [Read more...]

So tired but in a good way

Last night was busy something fierce. New people in Youth which was cool. Seems like there are always new people. One of them was from another outreach ministry that I work with. He doesn't look like a straight laced kinda kid but he has an amazing testimony. He says he'll be coming back and I'm gonna ask him to share his testimony in a couple of weeks. He has lip rings (yes plural) and ear hoops and all kinds of either things like that, but he really does get it so that is frigintastic.I filled my last 2 spots of Acquire the Fire but also had a couple of teens ask about going so I'm … [Read more...]

Battle of the Generations: AKA Youth Rule

On Sunday we played a game "Battle of the Generations" where Youth and Adults answer trivia about the opposing generation. Basically I put images on the screen and asked who or what is being displayed.In this the Youth go first and must answer the name of the band shown. Of course the band is "The Who" and I got a bit of fun in with that. Ultimately the students pulled ahead 1-0.I tossed the adults a nice easy one right over the plate and the Jonas Brothers are correctly identified. Score 1-1The youth come back by quickly naming Ron Howard pulling ahead 2-1The adults incorrectly call out … [Read more...]

Canon Run

Ok, so it seems more than a couple of people want to know how Sunday went and to see video of the t-shirt cannon. I need to get some better action shots, but I will put the video I have now up for everyone to see. I'm actually waiting for all my vids to upload so I will write this with one video missing.Sunday was, "anything goes" Sunday, AKA "Youth Sunday." I showed some great videos, threw some candy, had a surprise b-day party for twin girls that turned 18 that day and, of course, shot off my t-shirt cannon.People were warned and it seemed that half the church was absent. You will … [Read more...]

Who is searching for me?

Over on Katdish's blog Hey Look a Chicken she posted about her top searches that landed people on her site. I thought I show who comes by here. I think it is worth comparing the two lists. You will notice, for example, that no one gets here by searching for Annie K.' boobs or Helen's butt crack. In fact it seems I somehow attract a much more classy group over all. Let me offer my most sincere apologies. I don't know how the search engine sends you this way but you deserve better.i learned a lot in my marriage counseling classmy experiences about loveis ADHD genetictruly he is risen … [Read more...]

Valour as learned in 80's cartoons.

I loved most of the "boy" shows on TV in the 80s, but He Man was in the top 5. If you are familiar with the show, there is a man, Prince Adam, with a scardy cat of a tiger, Cringer, who had to defend the secrets of Castle Grayskull from Skeletor. Pretty straight forward for a show with a bit less than imaginative names.Anyways, when it was time for battle Prince Adam could raise his power sword and shout "by the power of Grayskull I am He-man." Then he would turn into a powerful warrior and his cowardly tiger would become the valorous Battle Cat.Of course, there is no sword for us to raise … [Read more...]
