Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts

1.  Last Tuesday I mentioned that I ‘felt a real subtle hint of a possible 8TH cold in 12 months coming on’ that morning. For the past week I’ve been denying the mere existence of any such cold since I only had sporadic sinus and drainage problems in one specific location – my right nostril. Over the past couple of days it’s gotten worse, but I still refused to acknowledge it as my 8TH cold in 12 months. It’s sort of like that Tropical Wave in the Caribbean that looks impressive on radar but is not classified as an organized Tropical Depression. This morning I took a Zicam (RapidMelts with Vitamin C), and I instantly felt better. I took another one 3 hours later, and I felt even better. I just took another one, and I think that my cold is gone. As a result of these quick developments I do hereby declare that my 8TH cold in 12 months did actually occur, and it is now done and over with !

2.  Just like my cold that is now done and over with before I even acknowledged that it had even started in the first place it appears that our U.S. economy may actually be coming out of a recession right around the same time that it is officially announced that we were actually in a recession over the past 6 months. That’s the way that it always seems to work out. Americans find out that the recession is over as they find out that it actually existed. This just in – 9 out of 10 Americans don’t really know what a recession is even though they use the term loosely as a crutch to blame all of their personal problems on.

3.  According to my friend Ritz Kelly-Kel of 91.9-CALL-FM apparently talked about my ‘born-again’ story this morning on her radio show. The Call was the device that Jesus utilized to grab a hold of me and rescue me from the darkness 27 months ago on a random morning in August of 2006. If it weren’t for The Call then virtually all of you reading this blog would have never met me, and I would not be here today with this blog. One day I’m going to visit The Call and tell my story in-person on-the-air LIVE !

4.  Hace Fresco !  I’m liking this chilly air aqui en el Sur de Florida. This morning was our 2ND consecutive morning with actual air temperatures in the low-50s and wind-chills in the mid-40s. Tomorrow morning could be even colder with actual air temperatures dropping into the upper-40s and wind-chills in the low-40s. It’s a sneak-peek of what I can expect all next week north of Dallas Texas.

5.  Speaking of Dallas my Washington Redskins put on another embarrassing performance at night LIVE on national television for the second game in a row. Allow me to be blunt here. The Redskins are stinking up the joint right about now, and if they keep it up then they’ll be watching “Desperate Housewives” on TV on Sunday nights in January instead of celebrating a playoff victory. Let’s get it together team !  WIN ON 3 !  1-2-3-WIN !

Those are my thoughts right now. Thank You for sharing your time with me.

The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club

TODAY for Lunch I ate at Panda Express in Homestead Florida, and as usual there was nobody else there but me. I don’t know how that place stays in business. They must be totally packed later on in the day when I’m not there. The’re apparently so busy that Florida City (where all of the food is) is getting its own Panda Express just 4 miles down the road.

I enjoyed the Chow Mein, Orange Chicken, Broccoli Beef, Cream Cheese Rangoons, Fortune Cookie, and Sierra Mist.

Here we go with this week’s Fortune Cookie Message:

‘A partnership shall prove successful for you.’

Be sure to catch the next exciting edition of ‘The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club’ LIVE from Dallas Texas. You won’t regret it Confucius !

Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad

It’s the middle Sunday of November of 2008, and we are the church that meets at the movie theatre here in Homestead Florida U.S.A.

Pastor Travis officially announced at each of the three services that Pastor Paul, Ms. Annie, and the kids would soon be leaving us and moving on to Tennessee to continue their ministries there. Paul will lead one final teaching at each of the three services two Sundays from today on the 30TH of November.

This week’s teaching was based on Chapter 2 of the Book of Jonah:

Jonah’s Prayer
Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from inside the fish.
2  He said, “I cried out to the LORD in my great trouble, and he answered me. I called to you from the land of the dead, and LORD, you heard me !
3  You threw me into the ocean depths, and I sank down to the heart of the sea. The mighty waters engulfed me; I was buried beneath your wild and stormy waves.
4  Then I said, ‘O LORD, you have driven me from your presence. Yet I will look once more toward your holy Temple.’
5  “I sank beneath the waves, and the waters closed over me. Seaweed wrapped itself around my head.
6  I sank down to the very roots of the mountains. I was imprisoned in the earth, whose gates lock shut forever. But you, O LORD my God, snatched me from the jaws of death !
7  As my life was slipping away, I remembered the LORD. And my earnest prayer went out to you in your holy Temple.
8  Those who worship false gods turn their backs on all God’s mercies.
9  But I will offer sacrifices to you with songs of praise, and I will fulfill all my vows.
  For my salvation comes from the LORD alone.”
10  Then the LORD ordered the fish to spit Jonah out onto the beach.

I won’t be present next Sunday morning at the LPC, so be sure to catch the next edition of the ‘Tossed Salad’ on the final Sunday of November.
