Do you know how hard it is to watch a debate, wrestling, and playoff baseball at the same time?

I didn’t hear anything in the debate last night that I hadn’t heard before.

How good do the Phillies and Dodgers look right now?

I think TNA wrestling is going down the same path that ruined WCW.  They keep signing old talent from WWE instead of growing their own.  Sounds like the Yankees.

I’m heading up to May Rally at Victory Mountain Camp this weekend.  It used to be in May.  Now it’s in October.  At least they didn’t call it “Fall for Jesus.”  Now, see if there’s at least one bulletin board in your church that has that slogan on it.

I’m being serious when I say this:  we should start something called Operation Clean Sweep.  I’ve been thinking about it for a week now.  Basically, it would be a push to replace all the politicians with regular people over the next 8 years.  It will take willing citizens and a whole lot of cash.  Of course, everybody think their representative is doing just fine so nothing ever changes.  Term limits sound like a great idea too.  If you think the circus will be over after election day then you are mistaken.  This is the new America where we are just moving from one election to the next.  The election cycle never ends.  Let me end my political riff with this:  in four years, whoever the president is will have to explain their vote for this bailout bill.  It’s not a good bill and will have enourmous repurcussions for all of us.

A friend of mine pointed out a blog that said a church can’t focus on the people inside and reach new people at the same time.  The blog’s opinion was that churches need to focus on the people who are there.  It seems to me that most churches aren’t doing either.  If your church closed tomorrow, would the community notice or care?

Sometimes I wonder if Eve hadn’t eaten the fruit and given some to Adam if we would all be going around naked.  If she hadn’t, then naked would be normal and not such a big deal.  Then again, it’s pretty cold today.  In conclusion, I wish there wasn’t any sin, but I would still like some clothes to wear.

I’m either going to write a book(which would just be like a long blog with chapters) or I’m gonna work on my stand up comedy routine.  I just decided this so let me know which one you think I should pursue.  Would Wesleyan Publishing House put out a book called, “I’d let you in my head, but the voices say there’s no room”?

Have a great weekend-go red sox-phillies world series-Clemson please lose again-and good night now!
