TODAY for a dependable and delicious Lunch I went to Shanghai in Homestead‘s Waterstone Plaza (Speedway Boulevard & Biscayne Drive).
I picked up my usual for $6.26 (including tax) – the ‘L2′ and an eggroll – and it was ready and waiting for me upon my arrival in ’10 minute’.
Here’s my Fortune Cookie Message fan club members:
‘Talk is cheap, barbers give it away free with haircuts.’
MEMO TO SELF – Get a haircut at Woody’s this Friday.
Going back to the last couple of months of 2007 Tuesday is the most-visited day of the week of this blog by a fairly substantial margin over the running average of the other six days of the week.
This weekly blog series is why that is so:
1. I am so glad to be back at home again using a computer that actually works properly with the rest of the world (cyberspace). We had rolling Internet blackouts today at work. It affected some people more than other people. I couldn’t do much on my computer system at work from about 7:30 AM until the time that I left work this afternoon. Hopefully they will fix all of those problems between now and tomorrow morning. I have work to do at work !
2. I would be very upset if my brand new A.C. condensing unit (outside) was not working properly. I am not upset at all. It works fabulously, and my home hasn’t felt this comfortably cool and dry in many years. I’m glad that I finally got that taken care of before the hot and humid summer season begins.
3. A late-season cold front will sweep through America’s Riviera late tomorrow (Wednesday) night. This will mark the start of about 5 days and 5 nights of more bearable springtime weather with maximum daytime high temperatures right around the 80°F mark and minimum nighttime low temperatures in the refreshing low-to-mid-60s.
4. Checkers may have wings, but the wings that I had from them last week were not big and meaty but rather tiny and tasteless. They were downright pitiful. The fries however was just as delicious as I remember them to be once upon a time ago when I used to go to Checkers every week for Lunch. The fried apple pies (2 for $1) were the absolute BOMBZ ! Nobody makes apple pies like that anymore !
5. On Monday May 11TH 2009 U.S. postage climbs 2¢ to 44¢ for a typical first class letter of one ounce or less. 10 years ago in 1999 we were paying 33¢. 20 years ago in 1989 it was 25¢. 30 years ago in 1979 it was 15¢. 40 years ago in 1969 it was 6¢.
SPECIAL BONUS 6. ! This Thursday and Friday I plan to see two movies at the box office – “I Love You, Man” and “Adventureland“. I’ve been in a box office drought so far in 2009 having seen only one flick – “Slumdog Millionaire“. I need to catch up with my current movie viewing. I can’t watch everything via Netflix.
Those are my thoughts on this Tuesday night. Thank You for spending some quality time with me.
For over 23 years now (since the end of 1985) I’ve been compiling my favourite hit songs of the week. At this hobby’s peak I was compiling two TOP 40 music charts every week. At one point it even became a TOP 50 music chart. For nearly a dozen years (1995 to 2007) these weekly hit music charts appeared on the web at MASSIVESMASH.COM (my former popular web site). Nowadays I simply compile a TOP 15 music chart every week (offline). The TOP 5 out of the TOP 15 is posted here on the blog at this location.
Here are my TOP 5 current favourite songs:
5. The Unavoidable Battle Of Feeling On The Outside – FM Static
4. Control – Clemency (former # 1)
3. Back To The Five – Ruth (former # 1)
2. The Difference – Philmont (former # 1)
1. Set The Dial – Run Kid Run
I’m a big fan of Run Kid Run out of SE Illinois / NW Kentucky. I like their style. Every single song that they’ve released to the radio since I’ve been on this journey with them has been a great song – “I’ll Forever Sing”, “Sing To Me”, “Captives Come Home”, “Sure Shot”, and “Set The Dial”. This is a band that I would love to see LIVE in concert. I’m a fan. Oh yeah – this is the most important part of it all: They love and follow Jesus Christ. That makes them rebels. I dig that.
– Happy Easter Sunday !
– It was extremely foggy early this morning in Homestead.
– Visibility was near zero for several hours.
– I could barely see the dozen or so signs along the road for Life Pointe Church.
– Those signs worked.
– The main lobby of the movie theatre was crammed in between services.
– The parking lots had traffic jams developing.
– People were pouring in for the 2ND service as much as 40 minutes after its start.
– I hugged Ela LIVE and in person.
– That alone made it a very special Sunday morning.
– Ela is perhaps the most inspirational person that I’ve met in my entire Life !
– Tom greeted me at the front door upon my arrival.
– Tom was rescued and saved by God from evil and darkness.
– Jesus Christ saved Tom’s Life !
– We watched his totally awesome testimonial at the start of the service.
– I want that video to be available on You Tube so that I can show it on here.
– I hope to walk with Tom for a very long time as we both follow God.
– Pastor Travis kicked-off a fresh new message series this morning.
– It’s the first week of an 11-week series based on 1 Peter.
– Simon Peter was a mad crazy rebel.
– This week’s teaching was based on the following 23 verses of The Good News:
– 1 Peter 1:1-12
– 2 Timothy 3:16-17
– John 20:1-9
– Everything that we need for Life and Eternity is in The Good News.
– It’s the rebel’s handbook.
– We do not follow what the world is saying and doing.
– We do not follow false idols.
– We follow and obey Jesus Christ and His Good News.
– Walk with us.
