Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts

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

1.  Congratulations my friends. We made it through the month of March together. Metaphorically speaking LL Phil J has no clue how to put a top hat on a month. Nevertheless we are all gonna kick it into high gear in April !

2.  It’s starting to feel like summertime here in America’s Riviera with maximum daytime temperatures approaching the upper-80s, heat indices exceeding 90°F, dewpoints into the 70s, and minimum nighttime temperatures above 70°F. Get used to it. It’ll be like this for the next 7 months.

3.  I saw Jim Gaffigan‘s brand new stand-up comedy special on Comedy Central yesterday, and I laughed from start to finish. He’s a clean comedian who seriously cracks me up with everyday observational material and downright sarcasm. I dig him. He’s a year older than me. He thinks like me.

4.  Hey Chris you just spent over $600 to get your car repaired and you’re not even mad, angry, bitter, or the least bit upset. You’re always calm, cool, and collective – even when bad things happen to you. What’s your deal dude ?  My deal dude is plain and simple. I don’t hang out with Satan’s dirty deeds done dirt cheap no more. I follow God. If you hang out with me then I’ll show you His work in me.

5.  Yesterday was the biggest Monday in history on this blog (as far as views are concerned), and that followed the biggest Sunday in history. March 2009 is the 2ND biggest month in history. Thank You so very much for supporting and participating on this blog on a regular basis. Thank You for sharing your Life with me. Let’s continue progressing forward on this fantastic journey and take names along the way !

Friday Night Blogroll Review

Let it be known that the weekend has arrived. After 16 months in a row the saga that is the ‘Friday Night Blogroll Review’ continues …

– Travis wraps-up Sunday at Life Pointe.

– Kelly presents a special Thursday edition of her award-winning ‘Sunday CHICK-Kabob’, and despite not featuring a single picture of me in the mix (again) I still present to her this week’s Major Bloggie Award !

– You won’t catch my good friend P.J. wearing a soft yellow shirt, purple slacks, and a pink hat !

– My fellow 42-year-old friend Mark has a blog that has essentially evolved into a new type of ‘Drudge Report’ for Conservatives everywhere. Sometimes I get a headache reading his blogs (because they make me think too hard), but one blog entry stood out this past week, as I got to play with my toys known as numbers.

– Dude this jam from Jesse and The Saturn Project like totally rocks my face off !  This is how I rock and roll !

– Alex posted his TOP 5 favourite U.S. cities, and Miami is not one of them. It’s just not dope enough.

– Ritz reviews the hot new album ‘Anthems For A Broken World’.

– Let us all pray for Luci’s Dad.

– See Pastor Paul on Ms. Annie’s blog !

– My favourite Pastor in Weston kicks-off a fresh new message series on Easter Sunday, and it’s all about that one question that you would love to ask in church. I’ll be sending in a question of my own.

Thursday Night Mini Thoughts

– I enjoy doing these ‘Mini Thoughts’ in 15 words or less.
– It’s because I don’t have to form complete sentences.
– These are known as ‘quickies’.
– That’s because each ‘Mini Thought’ takes 3 seconds or less to read.
– And then you move on to the next one.
– These are spontaneous in nature.
– I have no idea what I’m gonna write until I do so.
– The Stock Market has been surging for the past half a month.
– My retirement savings plan is reaping the benefits of the surge.
– The recession has probably ended already.
– We won’t know for sure that it’s already ended for another 6 months or so.
– Checkers now has wings.
– I haven’t picked-up Checkers food in about a dozen years.
– Nah it hasn’t been that long – but it’s been many years.
– Once upon a time it was part of my weekly Lunch schedule.
– And then I boycotted the place due to bad service.
– I’ll give them another chance – if only to check out their wings.
– I might see “I Love You, Man” this weekend at the box office.
– If I do then I’m hangin’ at Buffalo Wild Wings beforehand.
– The outside of my screened front porch is a magnet for millions of gnats.
– I sprayed Hot Shot Flying Insect Killer on them this afternoon.
– That should do the trick.
– Ruth is one of my favourite rock bands on this journey.
– The’re from Washington State.
– The’re named after their lead singer’s last name.
– ‘RUTH’ is also an acronym for ‘Return Us To Him’.
– They love and follow Jesus.
– In 2007 they brought it with “Cross The Line”.
– In 2008 they rocked my theme song with “Who I Was And Who I Am”.
– In 2009 they hit all the right notes with “Back To The Five”.
– I absolutely adore this song.
– It’s an instant out-of-the-box radio smash !

Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts

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

1.  So far March in America’s Riviera has been windy and soggy – and that’s a good thing considering the fact that November, December, January, and February were pretty much chilly and arid extra dry. This morning I drove through a ferocious rainstorm in the dark. It lasted all but three minutes, but I thought that I was either gonna drown or blow away to Kansas during the peak of it.

2.  I’m allergic to a bunch of things to include cologne and freshy cut grass. They make me sneeze. I don’t wear cologne. I don’t need to. I smell fresh and delightful naturally primarily because I take regular showers. Some people use cologne in lieu of bathing. They make me sneeze. Oh yeah – and they smell nasty.

3.  I moved over to my current workplace on base almost 20 months ago. I don’t have very many ‘low’ days, but of the ones that I’ve had they’ve all been far better than my ‘high’ days at my previous workplace on base of over 13 unlucky years. My career renaissance continues.

4.  Exactly 22 years ago tonight (on March 24TH 1987) I saw British musician Howard Jones LIVE in concert at London England’s historic Royal Albert Hall. That place has been standing there for nearly 140 years (since 1871).

5.  Last year March 24TH was the Monday after Easter Sunday. This year Easter Sunday occurs on April 12TH. That’s because it’s the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after the 21ST of March. (The full moon occurs on April 09TH.)

That’s what I’ve got for you for this week. Be sure to check out my ‘Mini Thoughts’ this Thursday night here on the big green blog. You won’t regret it pal.
