I was reading In A Pit With A Lion On A Snowy Day (by Mark Batterson) the other day when I came across this nugget of information (summary of info, not an exact quote): The sun is 93 million miles from Earth. The light from the sun takes 8 minutes to reach Earth. The farthestContinue reading “Lost In Space…”

Arkansas Computer Repair
Saw this sign in Imboden, Arkansas on the way back from Mississippi a few weeks ago. Am I the only one who finds it odd that a business specializing in computers has a sign that is handwritten in permanent marker? Now that I look at it again, I’m not sure if the business even hasContinue reading “Arkansas Computer Repair”

I figured that since it went so well with his camo pants he should just go ahead and wear it to church. Seems normal to me. On a related note, I wasContinue reading “Bumble-Jadon”

I Liked Diet Coke Once
I took a sip of Daphne’s Diet Coke the other day and it reminded me of the day that I liked Diet Coke. I’m not sure what year it was, but I know that I was in elementary school. My Grandpa Baumann, Uncle Johnny, cousin Matt and I went to the lake for an overnightContinue reading “I Liked Diet Coke Once”
