Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad

– It’s Palm Sunday.
– It marks the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem before He died for us.
– I remember Palm Sunday as a kid of Catholic Church / School 35 years ago.
– Back then everyone received a palm to symbolize the specialness of the day.
– Today I saw some of our Kids’ Life kids with homemade palms.
– It was cool to see P.J. attend the first service before he embarked on his cruise.
– It was also cool to see Billy Finch for the first time in such a long time.
– I nearly forgot what he looked like.
– He says that he intends to get back in to the blogging game.
– I gave Mark S. some wise advice to go less political with his blog entries.
– Patricia and I got on Venus for having a blog and ignoring it since October.
– Ritz is a crazy man, and he knows it.
– Pastor Travis led a ‘family discussion’ with us.
– He based it on the following verses from The Good News:
  – Romans 12:11-13
  – Luke 14:12-23
  – Matthew 28:19-20

Flagship Cinemas in Homestead Florida is the place to be on Easter Sunday for two exciting services that start at 9:00 AM and 10:30 AM. Get there early so that you can enjoy some free Starbucks coffee and bagels with cream cheese. Got kids ?  Bring them too. We’ve got four different programs for four different age groups 12 and under. Spend a couple of hours with us next Sunday morning at the movie theatre. You’re gonna discover a whole new modern way of doing church and getting to know God at the Box Office !

Saturday Morning Shenanigans

For about 19 years during the 1980s and 1990s CNN talk show legend Mr. Larry King wrote a weekly column in USA Today that is actually the true inspiration behind my own ‘Thursday Night Mini Thoughts’. Larry’s mini thoughts were essentially whatever came to him at the time, and no two thoughts really had anything to do with one another. The column was parodied at the time by The Onion as well as Norm Macdonald on “Saturday Night Live !“.

My brother and I have a long-running gag where we’ll E-Mail or text one another over and over again various ridiculous (fake) ‘Larry King Moments’ in an effort to make the other one laugh hysterically. We’ve also done this in person where we’ll try to outdo each other with an even more outrageous ‘Larry King Moment’.

Here are some examples that I managed to archive over the years:

– ‘There is nothing better to drink early in the morning than a glass of … RED WINE !’

– ‘He is a role model to children, and he exemplifies how staying away from drugs will take you far in life … Mr. Woody Harrelson !”

– ‘If I could only sleep with one woman for the rest of my life, it would definitely be … Estelle Getty !’

– ‘Here’s a great idea that I’m sure you’ve never thought of before as an extra unique Father’s Day gift … Old Spice Cologne !’

– ‘Friends if you can only rent one movie on DVD this weekend then you can’t go wrong with … “Troop Beverly Hills” !’

– ‘I don’t know about you, but whenever I watch “CSI” it just makes me smile !’

– ‘A brand new, groundbreaking, original television show that I have just discovered. I bow down to the creative geniuses that brainstormed and developed THE best new show of 2009, ladies and gentlemen … I would like to introduce you all to … “The Simpsons” !’

– ‘One of the greatest theatrical masterpieces in the entire history of television is a show known as … “According To Jim” !’

– ‘This may seem incredibly far-fetched to most people, but I truly believe that a small handheld device known as a ‘cell phone’ may begin taking off in popularity in perhaps 10 or 20 years from now.’

Feel free to post your own ridiculous (fake) ‘Larry King Moments’.

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 !
