Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Every Thanksgiving I go out and play football. This was our "2nd Annual Turkey-Bowl" we had for our church. I actually just got back from playing. Let me tell you, it was muddy.
So, yeah, I'm not really a fan of taking pictures of drawings, but this will work for this Thanksgiving. Have a good one.

Band on the Run!

This is a video of one of the seminars at the Worship God 08 conference I went to this past summer. I didn't actually go to this one, so this is why I needed to watch it. This is an excellent video, about 75 minutes long, called Band on the Run. In this Bob Kauflin teaches on how to fit in to accentuate the words, and more serve the congregation with your playing. It will probably bless you most if you are apart of a worship team, or play any instrument, but even still this can effect you in more than one area. Enjoy!

2-D!!!

Hey, if you can make out what these things are, low fives for everyone. But, hey, look, it's our ol' buddy Jim, the Pirate, upside down.

What do you mean a month late?

Hey guys, I'm back! A while back, my art professor had us draw monsters for homework. Well, it just so happens I didn't do any of these, in fact I did these a couple days after I did the homework. And these are all more like aliens. But they were still fun to draw, enjoy.

Piracy.

The other day some friends and I got on the subject of pirating movies. The topic actually brought back some old and nearly forgotten memories. In the little old city of Pasadena, I was great friends with my neighbors. One of my best friends happened to own of few of these "very early released movies" and in my blissful, young, 9 year old days this was awesome! I remember this one specific time I asked him how he got a movie when it just left the theater. "My mom goes to this place in LA, where they sell these." He said.
"Cool," I thought.
Another instance, which I can't remember was before that one or after, my friend brought over a movie that my other brothers already watched in theaters. I repeatedly asked about the bad quality of the film, and it was that day that I was really informed on the subject of "pirated movies."

So, about this drawing, if you can see it in the drawing, (which I blame entirely on not having a scanner) is that the pirate is pirating the movie on his cell phone. Other things about this drawing after looking at it is the skull on his hat, if the skull has no eye balls, why would he need a patch over his eye socket? Either that, or he should have two patches... Another thing is the movie that is playing, no, it is not supposed to be a real movie...if it looks just like one to you, then sure, that's what movie it is. If you're wandering what is happening in the movie, use your imagination. But the current line is, "Yes, yes it is true, I am a vampire."
And no, it is not Twilight... I can save a disgusted post on that another day. *Wags head in shame,* You poor, fooled, people you.

Well, on the subject of movies, I was bragging off the other day how I hadn't watched a movie in a long time. And I think maybe a week later I had managed to watch, Pirates 3, The Pursuit of Happyness, and Journey to the Center of the Earth. Let me tell you right now, as a part time movie critic, Pirates 3 and The Pursuit of Happyness, are must sees. Journey to the Center of the Earth might have been better if I had seen it in 3D, like the movie was filmed to be in.

All right, I will probably be posting again fairly soon, considering Thanksgiving and all that.
Bye all, see you soon.

Finally!

This is the third Sovereign Grace Mission Video. This features CJ Mahaney, the lead pastor of Sovereign Grace Ministries, and Joshua Harris, the senior pastor of Covenant Life Church in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

Hey, all I'm sorry I haven't been posting much recently but I hope to back to scheduale...or back-er anyway... \:^b

Labor Day

"And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free
and I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me,"

Labor day is a wonderful holiday. A day to celebrate that part of the song above. But in America today, we will do anything we can to get out of labor. Six days shall you work, Nay!
I always thought it funny that on Labor Day, we don't do any labor. Everyone gets the day off of work and school or whatever. So, if we were still going with God Bless the USA, the next part (if about now'a days Labor Day)...

"And I gladly sit down, and not do work, and defend that still today,
'cuz there I know doubt they worked real hard, now there's no work for ME!"

OK, so, as a "good little American", I love getting the day off. No work for me! Yay! But I don't know if that's quite the right attitude. One nice thing about Labor Day, is you can spend it with your family. Growing a relationship with your loved ones is already a good enough idea to take the day off. Another helpful thing I have found is think about those who died so that we can take the day off, (and I guess have a free country...)
Another helpful thing I have found is pray. Pray for those who were before us, those who are now in places of power in our country (which will be great because of our new president), and pray for the future too. I visited a church recently where they stopped worship to pray for the children. I thought that that was such wisdom, pray for the next generation.

I am proud to be an American, where I know I can celebrate God freely. What a country we live in? God bless our new president, God bless this country. We need it!
