Well, maybe. We’ll see.

First, a very specific request for prayer. I submitted my resume for a project manager position, and would really appreciate everyone’s prayers/well wishes/best-of-lucks in being considered for the position. Thank you.

Second, the other day I mentioned the “Pedophile Protection Act” and today in Chuck Norris’ column he mentioned a site to go to to show your opposition to it. That web site is on CitizenLink and I would appreciate it if you would take the time to hop over there and add your opinion.

Third, there is a young man who has submitted artwork for a Google contest. He needs your vote – can you help him out? His name is Jadon Mann. According to the information e-mail I received from my sister, LC, he:

is a top 40 finalist out of 28,000 entrants in the Doodle for Google contest! He has already won a trip to New York City and now has a chance to get to the finals, where he could win an Apple laptop and if he makes it all the way, he gets a $15000 scholarship for college and $25000 for his school! He needs your vote – go to http://www.google.com/doodle4google/vote.html and vote for his drawing in the grade 7-9 tab, he’s Region 8 and his drawing is for clean energy.

I have some “final” pictures of the new “gameroom” at the church:

Well, I’m outta steam. Cruise over to the links in the sidebar, and pretend I’m giving you a guided tour of what they are doing today…

Chat ya later…

The back-to-back 24 hour shifts driving cab can be tiring. I pretty much lose Sunday afternoon completely, what with laying down to take a nap after church and not getting up until well after supper time…

This morning I’m headed back over to the church – we’re in the home stretch now. The flooring is finished (see the picture below for a bad shot of the stage – I took it Sunday morning, with only one eye open) and now there is just baseboard to do. That should get accomplished today. If you click on the picture and zoom in, you will see a piece of the baseboard laying across the stage:

Well, it’s off to get the morning stuff done before MEG wakes up (again!) and we head over to the church.

Short and sweet – I’m driving today.

I have been working at the church all week; I have not had the time nor the energy after putting in a day over there to do a lot of blog-reading. I apologize for that, to those I normally read, and to all of you for not posting a round-up today.

I do, however, have pictures!

On the dais section, I decided to go with a picture frame around the edges (i’ll be laying in the flooring for the stage today, so the finished product will be posted later):

After service last night, I took a panorama shot of the “gameroom”:

Sorry the panorama doesn’t translate well to this forum. If you would like, I can e-mail you a copy if you would like to see the whole thing in all it’s glory!

Every time pastor walks in the “gameroom” he says “Why do I have the urge to play basketball?” Well, it was funny the first time.

For those of you wondering – the engineered wood is bamboo flooring.

I’ve got two things to cover on this Wednesday morning. The first is sickening, and the second is just plain disturbing.

First up is a plan to legalize infanticide – that is, reduce the penalty for killing a child under the age of twelve months from capitol murder to a felony – in the state of Texas. Normally, Texas is a pretty stand-up place, but this is nuts. Read the story at Samantha Speaks and get more detail at Cassy Fiano‘s blog. If you live in the state of Texas, let them know how you feel.

The second item came to me just this morning via the American Family Association. Seems there is a bill afoot in the US Senate (S. 909) courtesy of that bastion of tolerance, Senator Kennedy, that would add sexual orientation to the list of protected classes. No, it’s not saying directly that sexual orientation shall be considered a protected class for all matters – but in the instance of so-called “hate crimes” the sexual orientation of the victim would make the slightest reaction to their perversion a federal crime. And, with all things done by this over-blown bureaucracy known as the leadership of this country, allowing sexual orientation to become a protected class would make outlaws of the rest of the citizens.

Think I’m kidding?

What would be your immediate reaction to a person of the male persuasion opening his clothing in front of you or your children? Smack him? Shoot him? Yell at him? Think bad thoughts about him?

You just committed a federal crime against a protected class.

Now – imagine how many criminals there would be if speaking against illogical or immoral sexual practices became a federal crime. OK, that’s a big number. Think about how many truly Christian churches (preaching the Word of God, and not a human misinterpretation of it) would be outlawed. Whoops – same number!

Think about how many children are hurt each year by sexual predators. The children would no longer be the victims – the predators are a protected class, so how could they possibly be guilty of doing what they are protected for?

The twist of logic employed by the liberal left to promote and legitimize sexual perversion is astounding. And all of this is led by Senator Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts. Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable for comment.
