I'm in.

They invited me to apply, and then I applied. They interviewed me and voted on me, and I am now a board member of the Elmwood Village Association. After one meeting, I am glad to be giving them my time. Good people, doing good stuff, and wanting the best for the neighborhood (even if Paul does hate the name).

Front porch.

That is where I will be while the sun is out. If you want to drink beer, play cards, or talk on the porch, stop by my place. My cell number is in the chatter box, if you want to call first.

To lazy for a real post.

So i will cross-post from Elmwoodjesus.org. This is what I put there (which was also a lazy post, I know):

For the record, I have started to put most of my sermons there. It's not because I don't like you all, but just because that's where people tend to go look for sermons. So if you want theological content, go to elmwoodjesus.org/news

Oops. Can't copy and paste the links. So if you want to see the post, you have to go here.

I promise to be a better (e:strip)per soon.

This is also on the other site. Shane Clairborne talking about "Jesus for President":

Ok. Time to go home. My wonderful wife is making a good dinner tonight.

A good description of Jesus . . .

Is available at this link.

I wish I had written this. When I get permission, I will probably adapt this for the elmwoodjesus.org website.

Happy Easter!

Today is the most fun day of the Christian calendar. Here's how I am celebrating.

Right now: Drinking coffee and making sure everything is ready for worship.

9:20am: Meeting with the people that will join Lafayette Church today, to get them ready. (Six of them! W00t!)

10 am: Worship begins: special music, special flowers, new members join, everybody dresses up, we share communion, and even have a u2 song (plus there will be more people than usual!)

11:30: Coffee with people, Easter egg hunt, and then go home

12pm: start making burritos

1pm: Easter burritos with friends!

My First GiMP

I'm learning as I go. I am sure this would have been simple for some, but it took a lot of effort and starting over for me.

But I am getting better.

Ten things I like about Root Beer

1. It allows kids to "have a beer."

2. It is uniquely American. Most of the world thinks it disgusting, actually.

3. It kept brewers in business during prohibition.

4. It can be made at home.

5. It is flavored by Sassafras. You've got to love a tree that tastes good!

6. It can be delightfully simple, or bold and complex.

7. Froth.

8. Floats.

9. Cool sweetness on a hot day (coming soon, I hope).

10. The taste, duh!
