I'm almost 59 years old. I've been online for 33 years - starting with my own dial-up bulletin board system in 1993 - and continuing with AOL, my own dot.com web site, Myspace, WordPress, Twitter / X, Flickr, and Facebook.

Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts

It’s the longest-running episodic weekly series in the entire history of this blog:

1.  Friends – I don’t want the deadly swine flu. I don’t even want the ‘at-home-in-bed-sick’ swine flu. I’m just putting that out there for everyone. Please wash your hands thoroughly after you touch things. This personal health and hygiene message was provided to you as a public service by the ‘Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts’. The More You Know.

2.  An extended coworker recently stated that I remind him of Ernie Douglas from “My Three Sons“. Well that’s certainly a nice obscure reference from some 45 years ago !  The funniest thing about it is the fact that it was one of my favourite TV shows to watch as a kid of the 1970s.

3.  This season’s cycle of “The Celebrity Apprentice” on NBC-TV has been one of the most interesting, exciting, intriguing, suspenseful, and downright shocking seasons of any prime time reality show in television history. This has been one season where I refuse to record it for later viewing. I must watch it LIVE, and I must not be interrupted for anything whatsoever while it is on !

4.  I do not use Twitter, I do not know how to use Twitter, and I do not wish to learn how to use Twitter. This WordPress blog right here is as technologically-enhanced as I plan to get for the unforseeable future. If you wish to know what I’m doin’ or what’s goin’ on in my Life then feel free to read all about it right here. Although I post a lot of fun things on here during the week (filler material) this blog is also a ministry for me. It is how I disciple to the rest of the world. If you’re interested then stay tuned to what I have to share with you. If you’re not interested then check out other blogs that are out there on the interwebs.

5.  I’m hangin’ out with some good friends o’ mine at Homestead‘s White Lion Cafe tomorrow night. This just in. I love to eat ENORMOUS quantities of food !

Monday Night Countdown

This week on the hit series ‘Monday Night Countdown’ I present to you my own personal answers to 5 random questions that are frequently addressed on various Myspaces, Facebooks, and blogs all over the interwebs. Enjoy.

1.  Do you like to use post-it notes ?
YES – I love them. They are mandatory accessories on my desk at home and on my desk at work. I even use them in my car. They are one of the greatest human inventions during the course of my lifetime.

2.  Do you always smile for pictures ?
YES – And I’m one of the few people that I know that actually likes to get his picture taken. You guys and gals can document my Life via pictures. I’ll put it all in writing via this blog.

3.  What is your biggest pet peeve ?
Bad drivers. They surround me. They annoy me more than anything else.

4.  Do you ever dance even if there’s no music playing ?
All the time !

5.  Were you ever a Boy Scout ?
YES – 1975 to 1980. Good Times !

Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad

– Sometimes there are up to 9 Johnsons at Life Pointe Church.
– This morning I could only find one – Anne J.
– Anne J. was armed with several cans of Lysol – one for each hand at a time.
– She was killing movie theatre viruses, germs, mold, and mildew.
– She was eliminating odors on contact.
– My favourite couple – Jonathan & Lillian – arrived a good 2½ hours early.
– They were filling in for Manny and his crew.
– Jonathan & Lillian are typically the best-dressed couple at LPC.
– Mark S. hosted during the first service this morning.
– Jesse S. led this week’s teaching.
– It was one of the most powerful and inspirational messages in awhile.
– Jesse led a straight-talk conversation, as he shared his Life with us.
– Jesse is one of the most ‘real’ dudes I know on this journey.
– I’m glad that Jesse is an important part of my Life.
– I’m walking with Jesse as we follow God.
– 1 Peter is one of my favourite books of the New Testament.
– 1 Peter 1:23 sums it all up for me:

For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new Life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God.

– And then there’s this gem from 1 Peter 2:9:

As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for He called you out of the darkness into His wonderful light.

– My cornerstone date of rebirthing – August 2006.
– That’s when God rescued me from the darkness and led me into His daylight.
– This journey is so not about us.
– It’s all about Jesus Christ.
– We should inspire the world around us with the Life that we live.
– The world should be able to easily see God’s glory shining through us.
– Shine with me.
