DOUBLE FEATURE !
– ‘The fortune you seek is in another cookie.’
– ‘It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog.’
Let’s do this thing:
1. Homestead‘s LongHorn Steakhouse is now open for business, and I’ll start with the Crispy Chicken Trio. After that I’ll have the 9-ounce Flo’s Filet (medium well) with sweet potato with cinnamon and butter. For dessert I’ll partake in the Golden Nugget Fried Cheesecake. Who’s feelin’ what I’m feelin’ ?
2. The 18TH season finale of “Survivor: Tocantins” this past Sunday night was one of the best in the entire history of the series. I was so rooting for J.T. to win it all – and he did. When Jeff Probst revealed that 4TH vote declaring him the winner I totally jumped for joy right there in my living room. The best man won, and looking back in hindsight he was by far the best player during the course of the game.
3. I keep hearing me on the radio – morning, afternoon, evening, and late night. To be completely honest with everyone I am NOT tired of hearing myself talk on The CALL. I will never get tired of hearing me tell my testimonial to the world on how God rescued and saved me from the evil and darkness of my previous life. God saved me, and I am now reborn to Him. He can save you too – if you would just let Him. If you appreciate the life-changing work that The CALL is doing for God then THANK them by supporting them financially.
4. Last week I boldly forecasted 4 to 8 inches of rain this week. This just in. We’re almost there – at least most of us are. Over the past 3 days the immediate Homestead area has actually received the least amount of rain up and down the east coast of Florida, but we’re certainly catching up this afternoon. Let it rain !
5. This blog’s origins actually go back 16 years ago this week to May 21ST 1993. That’s when I created ‘MANx CAT BBS’ – a classic computer bulletin board system. It was during a wild pre-web era in which such relics of MS-DOS 6.0 and Windows 3.1 ruled the telephone lines and the 14.4 and the 28.8 modems of yesteryear. ‘MANx CAT BBS’ spun-off ‘MANx On The Net’ which evolved into the popular hit music web site that was ‘MASSIVESMASH.COM‘ which spun-off this blog (first on MySpace and then here on WordPress).
Those are my thoughts on this Tuesday night. I thank you for reading them.
The CALL (serving much of South Florida including both coasts and the Keys) is a Christian rock, pop, and hip hop FM and online music radio station that’s independently-owned and operated.
Here’s their ministry description and philosophy as presented on their web site:
Ministry Description
The CALL is a non-commercial, listener-supported, FM radio station broadcasting Christian music and programming in a format that appeals to the target audience of listeners, ages 13 through 25.
Recognizing music’s power in worship, inspiration, exhortation and entertainment, The CALL seeks to use music as a tool to reach out to its target audience. The CALL’s primary mission is to make a positive impact on the community by introducing people to Christ and encouraging the growth of that relationship. This will, in turn, provide the basis and the means for young adults to stand against today’s pitfalls, including drug abuse, premarital sex, alcoholism, racism, and suicide.
Ministry Philosophy
The CALL is founded on the following principles:
1. We believe in the Holy Trinity: God the Father, Jesus Christ His Son, and the Holy Spirit.
2. We believe in the supremacy of God.
3. We believe that the Holy Bible is God’s Word to His Church and that it is complete, inerrant and fully trustworthy.
4. We believe in the forgiveness of sin through God’s grace and that personal salvation is available only through Jesus Christ.
About 1,000 days ago on a random morning in August of 2006 during my usual 15-minute drive to work I discovered The CALL for the first time ever. I believe that Jesus Christ intentionally utilized The CALL to rescue and save me from the evils and darkness of my previous life. He took an obvious passion of mine – rock music – and used it like a dangling carrot in His effort to get me to follow Him. I did just that. I always believed in Him, but I didn’t really know Him. Over the past 1,000 days of this fantastic journey I’ve developed and strengthened my personal relationship with Him. There’s no turning back now, as I continue to aggressively follow my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and be more like Him.
This week The CALL is running hard with its ‘Summer Fund Drive’. Please pledge any amount of money that you can by calling them toll-free at 1-877-3-RADIO-5, or do so online via their official web site.
The CALL is an enabler. They enabled me to experience the continuous euphoria that is this new Life of mine courtesy of Christ !
I pray that The CALL receive the funds necessary to continue to enable lost lives to be rescued and saved by God.
