"Something is bound to happen then?"

if I was smarter I would have done science

I've mentioned in a few sermons that I don't find most the arguments for the existence of God very compelling, especially those that utilize science or scientific principle, but I do find science itself incredible. Jamie told me about this stuff this morning in the office.

I usually don't post videos, but these were too great to pass up.

britt and holly on their way to hollywood

a couple of weeks ago, one katie duncan (media director of fletcher communications) asked us and the dukes to star in a commercial that a local car dealership was filming. We participated and I used my small stipend to buy a postmodern hoodie sweatshirt, not made in a sweatshop (see post below). Anyhow during desperate housewives last evening (4-13-08) Britt and Holly's thesbian skills were put on display for viewers all over the 254 area code viewing area . With the fantastic advances in technology, I (a Gandhi like consumer cycle laggard) was able to use my imovie feature along with my mac cam feature and tivo to record this off the tv. there is no sound, but you can check out Britt and Holly in action.

waco

I have had a lot of realizations over the last 7 or so months and I think it is because of this. For the first year in my life I’m not a student. This is significant for me because I’m someone who greatly appreciates change. That was the one nice thing about school. Every few months life hit the reset button. Now my weeks are indicative of my life. This is what I’m doing. No more putting things off until the next phase.

So I’ve done a few small things like try and work in a few days of exercise because I figure if I don’t do it right away I may never do it. I do it because this is my life and I want part of my story to be that I took care of my body. One of the things I’ve had to do is ante up to the fact that I really live in Waco. Not the pristine lakes of the Northern Wisconsin where I grew up. I live in Waco, TX. I’ve resolved to try and love this town and I’m finding more and more reason.

This last couple of weeks I’ve discovered a few gems. For those of you haven’t made it, the new Café Cappuccino is off the rocker great. Their lunch is less than stellar, but there breakfast and more specifically their banana pecan pancakes are fantastic. The real surprise is not how great their food is though, but rather that the ambiance is so magnificent. If everything else that developed down town would mimic the ethos of the CC, Waco would quickly begin to rival some other great cities…I’d name those cities, but their committed groupies would get fanatical and defensive.

The other that I’ll share about quickly is the new Bangkok Royal. They were the best Asian food joint before, but their new location is great and the inside is well decorated. The food we had was incredible. Their spring rolls are the best, one of my favorite things to eat in Waco. So check out these places if you are feeling depressed about living here.

music sunday

if you weren't in church sunday then you missed jillian who played daydream and
hosea. I'm picky about my music, but those were both phenomenal. they are rough recordings, but still good.
