It’s a quickie ‘Bedtime Stories’ on a Monday night because it’s getting very close to 11 PM EDT (bedtime for me).
Be sure to catch the fun tomorrow afternoon after 4 PM here on the blog as I present to you everybody’s favourite weekly series – the ‘Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts’. You just never know what could possibly be on my mind on a Tuesday night !
Until then – be safe – be at peace – and remember this:
It’s 10:30 PM on a Wednesday night. Do you know where your appetite is ?
When we experience food, fun, and fellowship in my Life Group we don’t play around. We mean business. We had enough food for about 50 people tonight even though there were only about 15 of us. That means that each person had to eat for 3 people. Since some people only ate for 2 people that means that I had to pick up the slack. Oh yeah, and J.T. has enough lunch and dinner leftovers to last him through the upcoming weekend !
It’s going to be another heavy duty afternoon of more food, fun, and fellowship this upcoming Sunday at Homestead Bayfront Park. BRING IT ON !
TOMORROW here on the blog I’ve got your weekly ‘Thursday Night Internet Hoax Hall-Of-Shame’. I’ve got a well-circulated ’round the Internet photo to share with you that illustrates the effect of a major news story from the Summer Of 2003 that caused an estimated six-billion-dollars in financial losses here in North America. But is the picture for real, or is it a complete and utter hoax ? We’ll find out tomorrow afternoon.
Thursday is also the day that many of my favourite bloggers post some of their best work of the week in a dire effort to get included on my coveted ‘Friday Night Blogroll Review’. Get to work bloggers !
And so that’s what I’ve got for this Wednesday night edition of ‘Bedtime Stories’. Have a safe and restful night, sleep tight, don’t let them bed bugs bite, and remember this:
A large company – feeling it was time for a shakeup – hired a new CEO. The new boss was determined to rid the company of all slackers.
On a tour of the facilities the CEO noticed a guy leaning on a wall. The room was full of workers, and he wanted to let them know that he meant business. He walked up to the guy leaning against the wall and asked, ‘How much money do you make a week ?’
A little surprised the young man looked at him and replied, ‘I make about $400 a week. Why ?’
The CEO then handed the guy $1,600 in cash and screamed, ‘Here’s four weeks’ pay. Now GET OUT and don’t ever come back !’
Feeling pretty good about himself the CEO looked around the room and asked, ‘Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-ball did here ?’
From across the room came a voice: ‘Pizza delivery from Domino’s.’
1. Get all dressed up for an evening of all-night clubbing with Nathan in Weston.
2. Get all dressed up for a fond farewell dinner at the base for the Chief of the building that I work at. CHECK !
3. When I return home late tonight watch a 6-hour marathon that I have on tape of a week’s worth of “Monday Night Raw”, “ECW”, and “Friday Night Smackdown”.
4. When I return home late tonight get a good night of restful sleep in preparation for tomorrow morning at Life Pointe Church. Blatant Plug: Be sure to catch an all-new edition of the ‘Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad’ tomorrow at a special later time on Sunday night here on this blog.
5. Bring my stapled, collated, and binded 24-page dissertation with me to Travis‘s house tomorrow afternoon on how to improve upon the ‘Moonlight Easter Egg Hunt’ for 2009.
6. Bring my simple list of 10 items of interest with me to Travis’s house tomorrow afternoon.
Me: Hey I noticed that you’ve been blogging up a storm recently as the Ol’ Atom-Splitter over on Phil’s blog. Do you know about my blog ? How ’bout dropping a comment or two on mine sometime ?
J.T.: Oh I don’t have time to be reading blogs. I’m a busy man these days.
Me: There’s only 3 blogs that you need to be reading – Travis’s, Phil’s, and mine. You know those of your 3 sons.
J.T.: I have a 3RD son now ?
Me: Yes I’m your oldest son, and Trav and P.J. are my younger brothers.
J.T.: Well as my oldest son then it’s up to you to care for me when I get older and can’t care for myself – oh yeah and vacuum my living room.
Me: Well as your oldest son then I should be invited to dinner sometime so that we can look at old pictures of us that I’m not in – and then I can vacuum your living room afterwards.
J.T.: We can do that. Hey Anne did you know that we have an adopted 3RD son now ? The Johnson Family just keeps getting bigger at Life Pointe.
Anne: Of course we do. Have a great night son. I’ll see you bright and early on Sunday morning.
Me: I’ll be there !
