I mispell things!
i know this is useless but i found i on lifehacker while i was working on some stuff for the JESUS project. vnes hosts all sorts of old nes games. it’s the old original code so the game is the exact same as the original thing because, well, it’s the original thing. while i was on the phone i was able to play 1942. that makes a boring conversation better.

last night at the view, our youth worship service, i was speaking about goodness as a fruit of the spirit. as a part of the message i decided to steal a play from rob bell’s gamebook and make salsa during my message. i didn’t steal bell’s message (that would be wrong and bad .. badong) but i definitely took the salsa idea. i figured it was okay because pam and i have been perfecting the world’s most perfect salsa recipe over the past two months. i did the message, i made the salsa and then i simply hoped that the illustration helped the kids understand. by the end of the evening i knew that the kids like the salsa. that was pretty easy to find out since many of the told me that it was the greatest salsa they had ever eaten (and it wasn’t even my best batch). still i wasn’t really making the salsa for the kids to like it … it was a sermon illustration.
this afternoon i got the feedback i was hoping for. a couple of my teens dropped by and told me how great the salsa was. when i asked if they remembered what the message was about they told me what the main idea of the message was and what the points were. then we were able to discuss what they thought about the ideas. BINGO!
a few weeks ago I met the professor of photography at southeastern at the louisiana photographic society. he mentioned that he loved to take people out on tours to see cajun/swamp areas. i wrote him to see if i could go on one and he mentioned possibly bringing a group. i was if anybody was interested? he said he could probably take some people out in november.
secondly, is anybody interested in me setting up a little skeet shooting? i have two cases of clay pigeons sitting in a closet just waiting to fly. if anyone was interested in doing it i think i could arrange a place for us and the set up the skeet throwing machine. of course, there are some people that i would rather not be around when they have a shot gun in their hands but i’ll be nice and not name them presently. just realize that if i tell you that we will be at one place shooting skeet and you go there and don’t see anyone around then you are one of those people.
finally, is anyone interested in playing some more laser tag or setting up another xbox tournament. it’s about time for us to do something just for the fun of it. i have a tendency to be too serous.

okay, i think i have fixed it now. hopefully someone will try it in a second or two and i’ll know for sure. all i know is that one or more people have tried 9 times to register via the form and it has failed on those attempts. i know this because it sent me 9 error messages saying my space was full. i fixed that problem so go ahead and register.
i’m not sure why but for some reason the online sign-up form has decided to stop working. i know this because it has sent me 8 error messages within the last hour. i’m working on it. if you are trying to sign up just send me an email at robet.terrell at gmail . com. sorry for the inconvenience.
btw, lost was awesome!

one of the most insidious maladies of our time [is]: the tendency in most of us to observe rather than act, avoid rather than participate, not do rather than do; the tendency to give in to the sly, negative, cautionary voices that constantly counsel us to be careful, to be controlled, to be wary and prudent and hesitant and guarded in our approach of this complicated thing called living

the next race i am involved in is this saturday. as part of my training for the first light half marathon in january i am trying to run at least one race each month in between now and then. for october that race is the octoberfest 3 miler. hopefully i will improve my time from my last race – baton rouge zoo run – 5k – 28:28.
