I Went Ahead and Invented a StickyShirt Personal Organizing System

I went ahead and invented a StickyShirt^TM personal organizing system.  I'm kind of absent-minded, so I invented it.

I invented this StickyShirt^TM personal organizing system a few months ago, but it was during my last blog-quitting phase, so I hadn't posted it here yet.  If you're wondering how the marketing is going so far, I'd like to take this opportunity to tell you it's not going so good.

Sometimes There Will Be a Giant Metallic Disembodied Police Heads

Sometimes, when you get your own Christian Radio Program, you will broadcast from studios that have giant metallic, disembodied police heads descending from the ceiling.

You will have to decide whether the giant, metallic, disembodied, descending police head will hinder, or -- as it did for me -- enhance your worship experience as you play another song by Chris Tomlin.   

 

Big NCAA Tournament Game Today! I Pick Illinois!

I'm torn on the big Illinois vs. Gonzaga game today.  I'm a very big Illinois fan, an alum who says, "Go Illini!"

I'm picking Illinois, but I think it will be a close one!  When I look at the matchups, I can't help but think we'll miss the injured Chester Frazier, who's an excellent defender. 

Still I'm a big, big fan, and maybe I look through the world with rose-colored glasses, but I see us out-battling them on the offensive boards, and creating turnovers in our half-court defense! 

(I'm glad this game is earlier than the last one against lowly Western Kentucky, because I couldn't stay up to watch it!)

It's the NCAA tournament, so it's a BIG game!  A loss would break my heart and could send me into a real psycho-emotional tailspin!

Illinois  63

Gonzaga 56

My Tuesday

The Kamp Krusty Institute for Christianity and Public Life Presents, as Part of a Continuing Survey/Discourse on Faith and Popular Culture: "Geez: Why Do People Get All Excited About Some Football Game but When at Church, They Just SIT There?"

Because it's more exciting to watch someone break tackles than to watch a guy talk.

Magic Bullet Haiku

Bullet of magic

Everything now made liquid

As seen on TV

------------------

The Magic Bullet has changed my life:  I'm now a fruit-eater.  I couldn't say that before.  I used to hate fruit.  I know it's a wonderful, life-giving, refreshing, nourishing gift from God.  It's just made too slimy.

Enter:  Magic Bullet.  With Party Cups (TM) with Comfort Lip Rings (TM).  It makes fruit into a drink.  Fast.

I got it for my wife for Christmas.  She's going to be really happy with it, I think, when she gets some time with it.  She says so.  Meanwhile, I'm enjoying one awesome smoothie after another.  The Magic in the Magic Bullet is that it takes anything -- anything at all -- and instantly makes it liquid.

My fave recipe so far:

1)  Grab a bunch of random stuff lying around the kitchen, including juices, toast, cereal boxes, silverware -- whatever.

2)  Put it in Magic Bullet

3)  Drink it

I like reading the little book that came with it, because it congratulates me on my purchase, and that makes me feel pretty good.  it tells me about how my Magic Bullet will chop, mince, peel, and grind!  I've learned by "chop", they mean, "liquefy".  And by "mince", "peel", or "grind", they mean, "liquefy".

It tastes great, and I LOVE smoothies, even made with stuff like, say, fruit.  The Magic Bullet makes everything taste great, instantly.  I saw them use it on television, and when these people used it, everybody gathered 'round their kitchen, and they were really popular, and I can see why.  I like The Magic Bullet.  Too bad you don't have one, loser.

P.S. -- Next, I will buy "Snuggies" for the family, so that we can slap "high-fives" at sporting events, dressed as very snuggly Druid HIgh Priests.

Ladies: You WILL Be Wearing This

This is in today's news, from the Pierre Cardin "fashion" "show" in "France".

Pretty awesome.  They say it's a "preview" of what you will be wearing in the spring.  It looks like you will be warm.

I've written this sentence before, and I'll write it again:  Ladies, come spring, there's going to be some elbow chafin'.

You Must Watch This Video. NOW.

Q:  What are the elements of an awesome fight?

A:  Action.  Tight editing.  The German language.   Ninja guy.  In a wheelchair.

It's all in there.  Oh yes -- gloriously -- it's all in there.
