NO WAY! He didn't just say that!

You know for me life is going so good right now that I am sorta expecting a crash to come soon. You don't believe me that life has been good? Believe this...

Last Wednesday I had my first parent teacher conference where I DIDN'T get in trouble. I have always hated these devilish nights because it always meant lots of scream and yelling and fighting and me getting in trouble when my parents got home. My most dreaded day of the semester/quarter. But this time I didn't get in trouble. in fact the teacher said I was doing good! Finally my last parent teacher conference ever and I didn't get in trouble. Whoo-Who!

Also some of you have noticed that my hair/facial hair hasn't been saved or cut so, me being lazy i have decided to let you the readers vote to decided what I do. but one rule. at lest 15 people have to vote. I know that more then 15 people read this blog so come on people vote. (and I am honoring my Hawaii promise, just wait I have a trick up my sleeve.
peace out homies, (guys and girls)
Peace out.

+baseball season has started and you know what that means.
I'm back to spitting.

The Tuesday Herald

So i think that I am going to start a weekly post (on Tuesday) about my last week and what ever i feel like writing. So best of luck to you.

My highlight of my week was our all Saturday night prayer night. Justin, Adam, Nate, Drew, and Graydon for some of it, all showed up. And we prayed, and rocked out. And it was my highlight of the week.
Some Thoughts on IT:
The Best thing was walking around at 3am and praying for Shelton
Running up tuner hill
Adams "vision"
how even though people got discouraged about coming most still came.
How we ALL grew closer.
How discouragement comes in many forms but you got to just keep on going.

Another highlight was having the office all to my self last week for three days. Peace and quiet. (sorry brad)
No drama no fighting, Peace and quiet. it was just me and my ipod.

life has still been peachy. :)

What I am looking forward to:
Airsofting with 10+ guys this Saturday. Woo-Who!

By the way the reason I did this on Tuesday is because today is FREE day on Itunes, so I am always happy when it happens.

Peace out,




Sugar. I need Sugar. Sugar and water.

Who's son is he?

So last night our youth group finshed the book of Ruth, while we were reading I noticed that in the genealogy it said that Obed was Boaz's son. (ruth 4:17-22) Boaz was the kinsman-redeemer so the first born son should be know as of Elimelechs line right? But in all the other genealogies (Jesus's genealogies: Mathew, Luke) it list Obed Boaz's son, and Boaz as the great-great-great-great(you get the picture) grand father of Jesus. So theres my question. Anyone got an answer for me? Or can it be answered?



peace out.

You know

You know there are days when I'm like there is no use. People are giving Christians name a bad faster then I can do my part and change it.
Why do I feel like this?
Watch this video below but first a disclaimer: The video is not bad, and some might see it as funny, but some might take it wrong. (you know who you are) so please don't watch it and get on my case about it. Or do it because then it will be fun arguing our points.

Heres the link.

So heres my question about the guy in the end. What can I do to stop/help that? How can I not look like a fool where this guy ruins everything I do, just because he can't take a joke (if you see that video as that)
So what Can I do? Thats been my thought for the day.

Dead, dying or both?

You think that if the government wanted you dead, they could pull it off but still he rules the roost.

Rock on fidel. Rock on

A Sad Day Indeed

I woke up sad today.
Why?

because Fidel Castro has retired. Vila La Castro!
I miss you Fidel Castro. You were the only one would stood up to America and didn't die or fall.
You Win Sir, You win.
May you keep encouraging beard growers everywhere!

Peachy

Life has been peachy the last couple of weeks.
You know when everything just clicks.
I feel better.
Today I was driving and listening to my i-pod and I never ran into a song that I didn't skip or change in the middle, for like 10 songs in a row they were all perfect songs.


Life is good.
and peachy.

A Celebration (in other words a PARTY!)

So this is my 100thrd post. Hoary!
So when I first started blogging Molly was on her 100th post and couldn't figure out what to do with her 100th post, so I didn't want to be in that position and so I went home and wrote a paragraph for when I made my 100th post. Enjoy.

Well, I guess I made it. What a shock huh? Right now I really don't like blogging so it shall be interested if I keep it up. I really look forward to Rotc, I'm really hoping do some "wonders" with that unit. I hope Annapolis comes through. That Would Be Awesome!
Some things that I hope I do before my 100th post.

Go camping again.
Go see a concert
Get a car
Have fun
Not screw up in school again.

Well thats it for my 100th future post ta-ta from my future computer and flying car.

Part II
Here is my top 7 favorite posts:
1. Mobbing
2. Manly Men
3. Leadership
4. Cotton Candy Man from HELL (oh how I hate you do this day!)
5. A Knock Out
6. It is Time
7. No more

I really think that by reading these seven you can really get a good idea of who I really am. When I'm funny, serious, happy, sad, at my highest and at my lowest. So I encourage you to read them. (they are in no order really)

Part three.

I voted in a caucus yesterday and I really enjoyed it. I will give a more in depth look at it tomorrow but I just want to hit the highlights.
I made a speech and people clapped for me.
Also I am one of the people going to be able to vote in the County and City election. I voted Obama! My friend Danny also is going to the same thing. I really excited and have a drive now to get involved with a party. I just have to choose what party I which party I am going to pick. But I DO want to get involved. Maybe I can play both sides of the fence.

the 100th post

Why oh Why

What do I like about Barrack Obama?
I was asked this question and I will now answer it.

But heres the unseen question, I like Obama but compared to what or who? Stalin, Saddam, Clinton?

So since I am going to answer your guys question and answer mine.
but I will skip that step and answer anyway.


Obama is way better the Hillary. Way better. Why? The biggest reason is the thing about the House (white) being ruled by two families for what since like forever. Another reason is that when she was elected to the Senate she told us that she was NOT going to make a bid for the white house. LIAR! LIAR! Pants on Fire! reason 3: she cries in the public life. I'm sorry but the other women who were powerful and good leaders (Marget Thacher) never cried. Whats going to happen when the UN doesn't want to do something that we want them to do. Cry? *Crying* But UN this is important*- Hillary (09 if she gets elected)

Now what republicans? Most republicans I wouldn't vote for. Why because I see most of them religious nut-jobs, who have outdated ideas. McCain isn't like that. I would vote 4 him if hillary got the nod. But not against Obama and heres why:

(sidenote) My friend Nathan wrote a pretty good piece on the subject of change. No offense to him but I couldn't disagree more. We do need to change. The sooner the better.

I love his stance on Iraq. He has never voted for it and has stood by his idea that its wrong. Good for you Obama.

I love his stance on the Veterans. He really does help fight for them. ( I know this isn't really something since the all do.)

I love his stance on poverty. No one is more is better to fight poverty than Edwards but Obama comes in second.

I love his stance on immigration. i do believe in the fence (which he does not) but still pretty good.

I love his stance on education. As far as I can see only one candiate has had to work his way up from the bottom. Obama. Edwards too but he is out :( I believe that obama realizes how hard it is to go to school and all that.

I love his stance homeland security. Instead of looking over seas first he looks at home and knows that we need help here more.

I love his stance on Foreign policy. Lets help but not HINDER the world. Help when we CAN and not help we CAN'T. (amen brother)

Just a couple more stances that i like but wont go into details cuz lunch is almost over. Money. gay marriage, and civil rights.

I dont like his stances on Social security (or as I like to call it the SS) healthcare,

So there you go. Why I like him.


Boom! 99 post.

Coming up.

this ones going to be pretty random but what the heck.

Read this story: http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/viewnews.php?id=118670

I find this stuff like this pretty freaking sweet. Anyone else find this stuff cool.

Part two: I am listening to this album (icky thump by The White Stripes) right now and I just now know how good it is.
So you should buy or borrow right now and listen to some awesome alternative music.
Best White stripe album yet, with songs best songs yet (maybe, how can you beat Seven Nation Army? you can't thats how)
4.5 stars out of 5 and thats high for me. (only 5 albums with higher then 4 stars for me)

P.S. stay tuned people 100th post coming up and I got something up my sleeve.

Just a thought

I was just thinking. When people listen to Christian music are they "worshiping?" If not is the music then just regular music but it mentions God. So I guess I was wondering are radio stations such as Spirit 105.3 playing music so you can worship, or just giving you something to enjoy because to can't/wont listen to *secular* music?

Just thinking.

p.s. the Obama post shall probably come today.

My Super Tuesday

So I will do a quick run down on the candidates.

Hilliary Clinton. I will not vote for, because of this reason, we have had two families in the white house for 20? years. I vote for not making 28. We need change. So chances of liking her 5%

Barack Obama. I like him. I like his stances. and most of all I like the change he will bring to our nation. Sometimes I think you have to look past the policies and look deeper. So chances of liking him 95%

John Edwards. He will be the only candidate that i will review that is out. I think that if Edwards was still running he would give obama a run for my vote. I like him. I like his stances. So chances of liking him 88%

McCain. I think that i might like him most check back later. So chances of liking him 45%

Rommey. hes to much of a politician. So chances of liking him 15%

Huckabee. Same as I think that I might like him but probably not. 35% chance to like him.

Paul. I see his point on somethings but the things I see do not out weigh the things I don't like about him. So chances of liking him 10%

So new standings are. I will continue to update later after super Tuesday.

1st Obama
2nd Edwards (out)
2nd McCain
3rd Huckabee
4th Paul
5th Clinton

So my vote is two Obama

A new king

So does anyone remember this guy?

Ralph Nader ran on every election, knowing he would never win but oh how he tried. He took away votes and caused presidents to win or lose. Remeber Flordia? But this electrion Nader isn't running, why you may ask? Because there is a new sheriff in town. Someone whos job is to always take away votes. someone who tries so hard (read: too hard) to win, but knows it is helpless enless we all die, and the crazy greeners live. The king of attemps has been dethrowed and a new kings sits waiting for the next electrion where he can simile knowing that he cost someone the electiron. So I am pleased to anocen the new sheriff of the town, the king of the roost, the godfather of the isolations:

RON PAUL!!!!

Super Bowl

just a quickie.

Here was my favorite commercial.

today

I was just thinking... are we truestly ourselves when we are happy, mad, etc etc etc. Thats my thought for the day.
Also went airsofting again to today, got shot alot but I nailed nate S in the neck while he jumped off a bank. (he shoots he scores)
It was fun. Not as fun as paintball, but cheaper.
Also a theory for today, I think that only the people who really know you comment on your blog.
