Good ones…via The Curious Brain
Having pretty much logged everything I’ve eaten since January 2010, this story is pretty interesting. I may have to try something like this…

Kids today have so many more resources than we did years ago.
I find these quotes comforting. Not solely for their content, but the identity of the person who thought/penned them:
“The burden is too heavy for me.”
— Moses, Numbers 11:14
“Life’s been nothing but trouble and tears”
— Jeremiah, Jeremiah 20:18
“How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and
day after day have sorrow in my heart?”
— David, Psalm 13:2
“When anxiety was great within me,
your consolation brought me joy.”
— Psalmist, Psalm 94:19

A little over a week ago, I linked a story about a man who has kept his arm raised for 38 years…check this out.
How far would you be willing to go if a person you trusted or put your faith in told you to do or not do something?
Am I the only one who is bugged by the latest Facebook “Timeline” and Google Chrome “Dear Sophie” commercials?
I guess at one time I thought

(when I wrote that, I heard Daniel Day-Lewis from There will be Blood in my mind-
just that line, not the other parts from that scene…don’t get worried)
ok, i’m done now…
[*OK, for the record, the Dear Sophie one has a part about their baby being in the hospital]
I finally had some time to spend with Josh Garrells’ Love & War & The Sea In Between today.
I kept it on all day while in the yard – i was hooked after the first time through…
Great lyrics and variety of musical styles…
My two favorite tracks so far are:
Farther Along
Farther along we’ll know all about it
Farther along we’ll understand why
Cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine
We’ll understand this, all by and by
and
The Resistance
Hold fast my people and sing
Through peace and through suffering
All for the joy that it brings, to be free
It’s gonna cost us everything
To follow one Lord and King
True love endures everything
To be free
Over all, it’s a great album.

My car warranty ran out last month
Since then, I’ve been rear-ended and now my transmission is hosed
They say things come in threes – I’m a bit nervous
We don’t generally see the guys around our place.
I happened to see this guy when I got home from work the other day:
