Yea! The replacement cell phone is here, charged, and activated!
Month: November 2007 (page 1 of 3)
Still waiting for the replacement phone to come. I was worried earlier about being without my cell phone, but now, I guess I’m kind of over the cell phone DTs I guess, because it’s actually kind of cool not to be checking it every so often. Anyway, while I’m waiting patiently, here’s what’s going on…
- What did we ever do before cell phones anyway? Sounds like an old coot, I know, but I noticed something last Friday in the shopping crowds at the mall. I unscientifically estimated that 9+ of every 10 people had their cell phone apparently surgically attached to their ears while going about their business. How did we ever stay in touch before we carried our phones with us? What’s so important that you’ve got to be on the phone with someone all the time? Just wondering…
- I guess if my phone had been surgically attached to my ear on Friday, I wouldn’t be waiting for the replacement one to come now. Touché!
- At Fusion Church on Sunday, they had one of those “hearing protection dispensers” with the usual disclaimer about the loud band, etc. Somebody asked me if we dispensed earplugs at my church. I responded: “Nope, we have to hand out hearing aids!“
- The old City on a Hill Christmas CD is a pretty good way to spend a Monday morning.
Still no word on Chan Gailey’s future with the Jackets…probably a dim one at best.UPDATE, while writing this post: Never mind…- Anybody else think the Mannheim Steamroller’s Christmas albums after Christmas and Fresh Aire Christmas just seem kind of gimmicky and formulaic?
Great post about keeping one’s mouth shut by Steven Furtick…
Puttering around the house, waiting for the DHL delivery (“between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m.,” she said on the phone), reading, thinking, great steady winter rain, wind chimes from the front porch, a little cool, and J.S. Bach’s Christmas Oratorio by The Netherlands Bach Society.
Great post on Hell – and our response as Jesus-apprentices – from the one, the only Dan Kimball…
WOW! I had 4-page “To Do” list for the week of Thanksgiving, and all but three of the items are crossed off, done and on schedule. Those three? They’re in process as we speak, and will be completed by the end of the day today…
This from yesterday’s Literature Ministries International’s daily A.W. Tozer devotional, Insight for Leaders…
It may surprise you that Aldous Huxley, often a critic of evangelical Christianity, has been quoted as saying: “My kingdom go is the necessary corollary to Thy kingdom come.”…
Certainly His kingdom can never be realized in my life until my own selfish kingdom is deposed. It is when I resign, when I am no longer king of my domain that Jesus Christ will become king of my life.
Ouch…
Both of you loyal readers know that I’m not really a huge University of Georgia fan. So my comments are totally unbiased.
Coach Richt’s Dawgs are better than any of the three teams ranked ahead of them in the polls right now. Way better. Go figure…
Have Yourself a Jazzy Little Christmas is the soundtrack for tonight’s Unwind. Right at this very moment, the incomparable Oscar Peterson is playing A Child Is Born. Up next, Jimmy Smith’s Jingle Bells…you get the idea…great stuff!
