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.
This week’s edition of the continuing saga that is ‘The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club’ was submitted by loyal member Kelly on behalf of Travis:
‘Excitement and intrigue follow you closely wherever you go !’
Based on this long list of events I would say that this is rather accurate.
This is an update to my blog entry of last Friday night (same subject).
The powerful cold front is now expected to sweep through South Florida early on Wednesday morning. Wednesday will be quite unsettled – lots of clouds, a little bit of rain, strong gusty winds, and plummeting temperatures from the upper-60s (in the morning) dropping down into the upper-50s as the day progresses.
Temperatures early on Thursday morning (6 AM to 8 AM) could drop to as low as 40°F with wind chills in the mid-30s in and around Homestead ! (No frost is expected.)
Thursday will be a very chilly day despite lots of sunshine, as we will struggle to reach the upper-60s during the afternoon.
Another cold night is in store for us on Thursday night / Friday morning with temperatures bottoming out in the mid-40s here in Homestead.
Normal temperatures will return on Friday.
Well kids it’s DAY 2 of me taking my Lipitor medication (for probably the rest of my Life), and I surely hope that my bad cholesterol (LDL) is plummeting down to acceptable levels.
There are two serious side effects associated with taking Lipitor, and apparently they are very rare. There are 4 additional more common milder side effects associated with it, and I seem to be experiencing 2 – possibly 3 of them. Since this is a family-friendly blog I won’t even dare elabourate further on them. Hopefully they will go away over time as my body adjusts to this regular new medication.
I’m getting ready to call it a night, as it’s back to work for me early tomorrow morning. I’ll be back for more exciting blogging action tomorrow (Monday) afternoon. See ya then !
In the meantime remember this:
It takes a Men’s Wearhouse sale to beat a Men’s Wearhouse price. I guarantee it !
1. It was great to be back again with my Life Pointe Church family after a one-week hiatus. It just felt so right to be in that main lobby again as we transformed it from Flagship Cinemas‘ main lobby to Life Pointe Church’s main lobby. If we set it up and build it then they will come.
2. If you were in that main lobby at 8:20 AM then you may have thought that service was getting ready to begin in a few minutes. It was totally packed. I’m glad to see that more of our church family is discovering the earlier 9 AM service. It creates some much-needed empty chairs for some of our newer attendees that only know about the later 10:30 AM service.
3. Some kids came in off the street to play video games in the main lobby. Of course the video games are closed during our occupation there. We offered them a better opportunity which they curiously accepted – Kids’ Life. They registered at the table, and then they proceeded to the Kids’ Life venue. I hope that they had an enjoyable experience.
4. The 3-part ‘(un)christian‘ message series came to a close this morning. It was easily the most controversial message series that we have ever done, but it was also the most enlightening one as well. The series of short films that accompanied the message series were of top-notch quality including the production values, the acting, the writing, and most importantly the message within it. Fuser Films is slowly turning Homestead into Hollywood !
5. Pastor Travis spoke with us about God’s expansive forgiveness of which there is no limit. His forgiveness is truly complete, but it surely does not give us a license to exploit it. There are Christians who put on a show every Sunday morning and claim Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, but then they do not truly follow Him with their day-to-day actions. We must honor God with more than just mere words. Actions speak louder than words. We must truly honor God with the lives that we lead.
