Glad to know that the government realizes the importance of energy drinks and is willing to pay for them as long as they are labeled a certain way. Priorities, right?

Self-Deflating Watermelons
Who knew watermelons have a built-in self-destruct feature? Apparently, when a watermelon goes bad, it deflates itself. Seems like a pretty handy feature and it’s kind of surprising the watermelon industry doesn’t promote it more.
How Do Seedless Fruits Reproduce?
How in the world do they keep growing all these seedless fruits? I see seedless watermelons, grapes, and oranges all the time, but haven’t figured out how they are able to reproduce them without using seeds. Is there a limited supply or are they creating them in a laboratory somewhere? And where did the firstContinue reading “How Do Seedless Fruits Reproduce?”
See ya…later…bye!
I’m terrible at ending phone conversations…is saying “bye” really necessary if I’ve already said “later” or “see ya”? Seems a little redundant to say “See ya…bye” doesn’t it? What’s really bad is that I’ll even go as far as saying “See ya later…bye.” I guess I just really want there to be no doubt asContinue reading “See ya…later…bye!”
Prepaid Phone Purchasers
Is it bad that I assume every person I see buying a prepaid phone with cash is up to no good? Who else but drug dealers and hitmen would buy untraceable phones? Maybe I’ve watched too many episodes of crime dramas and police shows.
Plastic vs. Styrofoam Cups
I think pop tastes better in plastic cups, but I prefer the sweatlessness of styrofoam better. One of these days someone will invent a sweatless plastic cup…and that person will be my hero.
When Your Church Leaves You Spiritually Unfulfilled
It can be tough to find a good church. The worship services at many churches are either completely irrelevant and old-fashioned or are too much like a show – flashy, loud, and overproduced. Even if we do find a place where we can really worship, it can be hard to really connect with people, buildContinue reading “When Your Church Leaves You Spiritually Unfulfilled”
No One Can Take Your Place
“Don’t you see how impossible it is that anyone should ever take your place? Don’t you see that you have a place in the world – a place that is yours because God put you in it, just as truly as He put the mountains, the seas, the stars in their places? And don’t you see why you must feel that you have a right to your own life-place, and that you must hold it, no matter what others say, or do, or think, because of its great value to God and to the world?”

The Next Bubba Watson?
A few photos from Jadon’s first week as a golfer… Jadon and I went and picked out his first real golf clubs and glove. We also picked up some plastic golf balls and a fake hole for him to practice inside with. Jadon lining up his shot…maybe standing directly in front of a five yearContinue reading “The Next Bubba Watson?”
There Has To Be A Better Way
Underwear. Everybody needs it. Everyone knows that everyone else needs it and wears it. Yet, for some reason, no man wants to go out and buy it. I’m sure we’ve all heard the old joke about men wearing their underwear until it falls apart…incredibly gross, yes, but also frighteningly true for many men. I haveContinue reading “There Has To Be A Better Way”
