Hello all and those from Owosso

Just a quick post. I have put some new stuff in the side bar -> over there-> and I have been seeing some familiar towns. But I am just wondering who is from Owosso Michigan? I kind of know where the others are coming from, but that one I cannot place. Any help? Drop me a line or leave a comment so all can know. Thanks to you all for stopping by. Peace

They need some reading lessons...

Lenten pick me up: Part the Next

I picked this up off of Vox-Nova, where it was a cross-post from The Catholic Blues. So enjoy it. It has some nice writings from Pope Benedict XVI and his encyclical Spe Salvi. It also includes the Stations of the Cross. The music is from The Psalters. Enjoy this and your Lenten journey.


LOLCats Lent

I just knew they were going to get around to this on some level. Well here it is. Enjoy

Not sure what to make of this...

If it is real, then it is really sad. If it is not real, then it is incredibly funny. What do you think? I post this assuming it is not real, if I find out it is real I will pull this.


How would you react to this?

This video has been out for a long time. It is pretty funny. I would like to think I would take it in stride, but who knows..??? How about you?

Worst Gold pants...EVVVAAR!

Enjoy???

Wanna bet?

I must confess, I need to loose some weight. The few times I have been successful at keeping some weight off was when I had money and pride on the line. I was reminded of this the other day when talking with some friends. So the next day I heard this story was going to be on NPR, go listen to it I will wait...go on I will still be here. Done? Promise? Okay, so the next day Merlin Mann over at 43Folders put up a piece about the same story. Then my beloved Lifehacker posted about it as well. I just wish the Lord would be clear when he is trying to motivate me. So I have taken the hint. The stories are all about this site called, StikK. Basically it is a site that people make a bet and whatever the outcome is, StikK pays off the bet. This all revolves around prospect theory, and as I see it, I respond well to loosing things. So here is the deal: I would like to enter a bet with me as one side and anyone else as a whole on the other. Now I need to risk something, so lets say I will match up to $500.00 of my own money to be matched by others on the other side of this bet. Within the next week anyone who would like to enter this bet drop me a line or better yet post something in the comments and lets get this set up ASAP. Deacon Bill said he would hold the money (our own version of StikK). If I win the bet the money you put up will go to CRS. But, I will be open to you suggestions as to where my money will go if I loose the bet. Now the place needs to be something that you think would make me work harder--so that my money will not go to that cause or group. So let me know if you want to be part of the bet and where you think the money should go. Let me hear from you soon. I think we can have some fun with this. Peace!

I love to play


I love to play. Games, race, just goofing off...I love to play. I frequently listen to Speaking of Faith with Krista Tippett on Sunday mornings when I am getting ready for Mass. I got sent a slide show about a polar bear, from a show from August 2007 dealing with Play, Spirit & Character. You can listen to the show from their site, a nice show. I remember listening it to it last year, so give it a listen in you like. My favorite show was the show about Money and Moral Balance, give it a listen. As for the show in general just know that I really enjoy listening to SoF, so if you hear it know that I am probably listening to it as well, we can enjoy it together. Peace
