Sneak Peak!

This is probably what next Sunday's sermon will be, unless I change it between now and then, or your comments add a particular insight.

Goodsearch!

It may not be as powerful as google, but if you decide to make goodsearch your primary search engine, it will allow my church to raise a couple of bucks, (until Paul registers estrip with goodsearch), which I recommend. And it uses Yahoo!, so it does a pretty good job of searching.

Please go to goodsearch.com and add it to your toolbar as your primary search engine. I would love it if you made Lafayette Church the non-profit you choose to support, at least until estrip signs up.

It doesn't cost you a thing!

30 Rock

Best show ever. (except maybe the Simpsons)

And I often like to watch it online, so I figure the writers, especially the brilliant ones on this show, should get a share of the online and DVD revenue.

Basketball

A friend of mine and I are going to hoop it up tonight, but we are hoping that we can do better than one on one.

We will start around 7:30. No cost, all are welcome.

Not enough?

Today I feel like there aren't enough hours in the day (and yet I find time to post on estrip--I know).

I also am thinking about our church's budget. And that would be easier if there was more money.

Of course, I know that we have exactly the right amount of time AND money, and we just have to make the choices to use them both well.

And so, when I get home tonight, around maybe 9 (after SIX separate, unrelated meetings in one day, plus too many phone calls and stress about programs and money, starting at 8am and including a lunch meeting), I will not think about this stuff anymore, and focus on relaxing with my wife.

Then we will start again on Wednesday (which should have a more normal pace)

They Might Be Giants!!!!!!!!!!!

Nov 16 I are am going for sure. Two non-estrip friends are, too, but (e:janelle) has something lame. I am extra-geeky-spazzy happy.

AND it is on a friday, so I can party and not worry about the next day. ((e:janelle) will be there for that)

I AM SO VERY HAPPY.

Everybody on estrip should go. every. last. one. of. you.

Johns Flansburgh and Linnell rank right up there with Jesus, Bono, Tina Fey, Roberto Clemente, Tina Fey and Matt Groenig. Here's a sample

They didn't even write this song, but they certainly made it their own. At this show they will have a full band and be plugged in and awesome.

To me, a great test of how good a song is how well it can be played on as you as possible instrumensts. Here they are with a voice,a bari sax, and a stick

One more, so you can here them with a band:

10 Things I like about doing laundry

1. It gives me a chance to check up on the dehumidifier.

2. At the end, I have clean clothes.

3. The dryer makes my clothes warm.

4. It takes a while, so I can read, surf the internet, or watch tv, even though I am "doing chores."

5. Now, it doesn't require quarters or a drive.

6. Using cold water makes me feel slightly less environmentally destructive.

7. Cleaning dryer lint.

8. The removal of dirty clothes makes the room cleaner.

9. The cleaner room makes my wife happy.

10. A happy (e:janelle) means a happy (e:drew) (as long as he doesn't have to fold too much)
