  • RT @edstetzer: Msg: Mark Twain: church is “good people standing in front of good people & telling ’em to be good people.” That’s not gospel! #
  • Is it a bad thing if the pastor of a church skips service to continue playing #trivia40? Not that I know anyone who would do that. #

  • Getting last minute things finished for “Film & Theology” tonight @uwft #
  • Plan B for @uwft tonight showing “Stranger than Fiction” instead of “Slumdog Millionaire.” We had unknown licensing problems. #
  • @uwft – testing this thing out #
  • @uwft – thanks drew it works #
  • @uwft – i wish i had that watch #
  • @uwft – it’s okay it’s wednesday #
  • @uwft – apparently twitter is going pretty slow – TAX MAN!!!!!!!! #
  • #uwft – back off drew 😉 #
  • #uwft – that’s a nasty way to put out your cigarette #
  • @uwft – if you just walked in you should know that due to licensing issues we are showing “Stranger than Fiction” rather than “Slumdog” #
  • @uwft – anybody remember the name of the photo of the girl who committed suicide? #
  • @uwft – the author on TV looked a little like Seal #
  • @uwft – watch Hoffman – pretty much every time he is in a scene he eat something during it. not sure why #
  • @uwft – i would be thrilled to know that i wasn’t a gollum #
  • watch for the woman and child in each of these mock killings #
  • @uwft – interesting thought that she is the “god” figure and she says she is not in the business of saving lines – in fact the opposite #
  • @uwft – more food with hoffman #
  • @uwft – that’s mean #
  • @uwft – @alkinnu -i was just search for a meaning for kirck – her name “pascal” has to be a reference to blaise #
  • @uwft – blaise pascal – brilliant french mathematician and believer in JESUS CHIRST. said that all people had a GOD shaped vacuum in them #
  • @uwft – interesting dicatomy between them. he wishes he was more musical – she gave up easy money to follow her love. #
  • @uwfthttp://tinyurl.com/4ze2t quick description o pascal’s wager #
  • @uwft – hoffman had food again – you’re not supposed to eat before swimming #
  • @uwft – i’m doing that right now 😉 #
  • @uwft – not sure that is how i want to define my home – “it’s where i keep my stuff” #
  • @uwft – i didn’t see hoffman eat anything that time – did i miss it? crime & punishment is an excellent book. good pancakes are impressive #
  • @uwft – “go make it the one you always wanted” (ref. life) calls back to pascal – she’s doing that #
  • @uwft – i.e. you’re never too old to live the life you always wanted????? #
  • #uwft – which is what a guitar should say #
  • #i think that amp turned up to “11” #
  • #uwft – that movie was monty python – meaning of life – interesting choice. #
  • #uwft – wow that’s impressive #
  • #uwft – the flowers is what i meant as impresive #
  • #uwft – interesting choice of word “want” – especially saying it to someone named pascal & being willing to do anything to achieve the want #
  • #uwft – he’s just playing E & A – i think #
  • #uwft – he’s want was just achieved by making his life more musical #
  • #uwft – hoffman and food again #
  • #uwft – he’s the only one with color in that office #
  • #uwft – the world of the creator and the creation collide and the creator runs to answer – mhmmmm #
  • #uwft – interesting again – the creator sees her creation and bows to it ?????? #
  • #uwft – the opposite of the CHRIST story? we saw HIM and saw that HE exists and we killed HIM?!?!?!?! #
  • #uwft – didn’t see any food with hoffman that time #
  • #uwft – tweeters – the #replies seem to be taking forever so swap to #hastags #
  • #uwft – WOW – for the story to go on he must knowingly die?!?!?!?! sounds a little familiar – “see if she can change it” gethesamne? #
  • #uwft – he reads the book, finds it true, and let’s it direct his life to the point of death – so do believers in CHRIST still to this day #
  • @uwft – just trying the @reply again to see if twitter is doing better on these now #
  • #uwft – “i love your book and i think you should finish it” implies living by it #
  • @uwft – the film borrows heavily from a famous painting called :son of man” – here it is http://tinyurl.com/5jlh4u #
  • #uwft – so the plan was that the story called for harold to sacrifice himself for another and the creator shouted in pain?!?!?!?!? #
  • #uwft – and he is resurrected. #
  • @uwft – is hoffman the adversary in this story? is he somewhat arguing for kirck’s death? #
  • #uwft – WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #
  • #uwft – yep that would be the kind of MAN you want to keep alive and my faith says HE lives #
  • #uwft – now notice al’s great sweater #
  • @dhaltom7 – we did a “film & theology” thing at UWSP and some of us where twittering the whole thing on sides screens. in reply to dhaltom7 #

cocktail kits?

does anyone have any experience with cocktail drum kits? i am considering one for tapestry. sarah, our drummer, has been playing the djembe for tapestry and has been doing a great job. we’ve been talking about moving up to a drum kit for a fuller sound but portability, band size, and the feel of a full kit have been running through my mind. therefore, i was thinking about a cocktail kit. i’m considering one because they would fit in with the simple feel of tapestry and i think they are probably vey portable. i also think they are pretty interesting just because they are different. the problem is that i have no personal experience with them and thus can’t make a very good call on it. sarah is going to try one out this week and obviously her experience will make the final call but i’m still looking for a little input.

so i’m looking for any input that anyone may have to offer. does anyone know anything about them? are they a good alternative or are they cheesy and stupid?

aunt lynn

hey guys & gals would read this blog. if you have a moment i would appreciate your prayers for my aunt lynn. she’s my dad’s only sister and is a pretty cool aunt. right now she is dealing with the possibility of liver cancer and will be receiving the final testresults monday. my family and i would greatly appreciate anybody’s prayers. thanks.

ole`

it really “floats my boat” to think that all those soccer fans are singing “by GOD” when they sing ole`. also i would like to add that ryan hall is the real deal.
