Angry People
June 27 2006
I am not being rude.
Well my friends, there comes a time in life where you must part your ways with things that you have always known. For instance, diapers, cartoons on saturday morning, animals, and vehicles. That's right, I have parted ways with my good 'ol 1998 Gray Mazda B2500 that I have had for 8 years. And a kid from my youth group that looks just like bought it. Gods way of saying my legacy lives on.
In return, I bought a 2002 Sliver Chevy Malibu and a 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe. Not a bad trade!
So, next time you are on the road and you think you see me, just do the ol' wave and nod, it may not be me.

NEW JOB
April 30 2006
Wireless at Stones River Mall. If you have anything you need done with
your phone service, come over to the mall and I will take care of you. I already had my first customer, Stephen Hamby!! Thanks man. If you print and bring this blog in, I will give you an extra $20 off of a phone or 20% off of an accessory.
Call to make sure I will be at work before coming, no one else will honor this deal.
Get some more money on your books
April 30 2006
When you are attempting to sell your books back do this little thing that could get you $5 extra per book. Take the yellow "Used Textbook" sticker off anywhere it is located.
When returning my books the other day, the clerk gave me $31 for the same book that my friend recieved $36 for. So I asked him why, he said, "His was probably new, yours has this used sticker on it, so we give $5 less than we would a new one."
So this means that if you remove the sticker, they would think it was a book that you bought new. Just thought I would pass it on.
Doesn't hurt to try.
If you make some extra money, take me to lunch!
What is Pink Lemonade
April 24 2006
What is pink lemonade? Does it come from pink lemons? If so, where are they?
It's not regular lemonade with food coloring because it taste different. It's not strawberry, because there is strawberry lemonade. It's not raspberry, because it doesn't taste like raspberries.
Then what the heck is Pink Lemonade?
If you can give some insight on this, please feel free. I just love the stuff, but I don't know what I'm drinking.

Welcome To Hollywood
March 09 2006
That is a familiar phrase that you hear on American Idol. And Man, I didn't know that life in Hollywood could be that great. Jennifer and I deceided top take a California Tour over Spring Break and OUr stop today was Hollywood. It was a blast. It's not like y ou would think it would be, but it is still great.
We had an opportunity to go see American Idol, but then it was full, so they gave us tickets to The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. We gladly accepted them and was a part of the the audience. We heard two awesoe performances by Train and Fiona Apple. They didn't have anybody extremly famous on, but still was a fun show. I wish that we had got home earlier so I could have told you to watch for us.
We also saw some people's homes here in Hollywood. Like, Ozzy's, 50 Cent, Julia Roberts, Marilyn Monroe, Sean Connery, Usher, and my favorite of all.........THe house from Fresh Princeof Belle Aire!! Holla!! I will have pictures to come, but too late and too much time to try and format for phusebox.
Hope all is having a good Spring Break,(for those in college) and if you arein High School, you will soon enjoy.
Shelby, Out
New hair....or No hair ?
March 02 2006
Just wanted to show you the consequences of a bet to my youth group. I challenged them to bring 15 new people on sunday morning. This is a huge feat since I can barely get 5 pf regular's there. 30 on wednesday nights, 5 on sunday morning. SO, they were up for the challenge, the prize, well, look up, that's it!
Although they said that it's not any fun if i look half-way decent. All I have to say is, well, should have thought about that!
HOLLA!!!

Colossians 3:5-9 (NIV)
5Put to death,therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality,impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. 6Because of these, the wrath of God is coming. 7You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. 8But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. 9Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices
Does it bother you that Kayne West swears, talks crudely about sex and demeans women while saying he's a Christian? Why or why not?

UPDATED 16 HOURS 41 MINUTES AGO
LOS ANGELES - Farfrompoopen Road, the only road to Constipation
Ridge, lost to Divorce Court and Psycho Path, which placed No. 1 in an
online poll of the nation's wildest, weirdest and wackiest street names.
Mitsubishi Motors sponsored the poll on the Web site http://www.TheCarConnection.com and more than 2,500 voters cast their ballots during a week of voting that ended this month. Winners were announced Friday.
"Our
readers really stepped up with some insane street names," said Web site
publisher Paul Eisenstein. "Our panel had a difficult time narrowing
several hundred down to the 10 our readers voted on.
"But we
learned a lot about the byways of this country, not to mention the
collective sense of humor of city planners everywhere."
In first
place was Psycho Path in Traverse City, Mich., followed by Heather
Highlands, Pa.'s, Divorce Court in second and Tennessee's Farfrompoopen
Road in third. Eisenstein said all the roads were verified, although
some are private and hard to find.
The complete top 10 list included:
10. Tater Peeler Road in Lebanon, Texas
9. The intersection of Count and Basie in Richmond, Va.
8. Shades of Death Road in Warren County, N.J.
7. Unexpected Road in Buena, N.J.
6. Bucket of Blood Street in Holbrook, Ariz.
5. The intersection of Clinton and Fidelity in Houston
4. The intersection of Lonesome and Hardup in Albany, Ga.
3. Farfrompoopen Road in Tennessee (the only road up to Constipation Ridge)
2. Divorce Court in Heather Highlands, Pa.
1. Psycho Path in Traverse City, Mich.

Fla. Man Kills Roommate Over Toilet Paper
By Associated Press
document.write(getElapsed("20060221T111806Z"));Tue Feb 21, 5:18 AMUPDATED 1 DAY 11 HOURS 29 MINUTES AGO
MOSS BLUFF, Fla. - A man accused of fatally beating his roommate
with a sledgehammer and a claw hammer because there was no toilet paper
in their home has been arrested.
Franklin Paul Crow, 56, was
charged Monday with homicide in the death of Kenneth Matthews, 58,
according to the Marion County Sheriff's Office.
Capt. Thomas Bibb said Crow initially denied his involvement, but confessed during questioning.
Crow
told investigators that the men were fighting about the toilet paper
over the weekend when Matthews pulled out a rifle. Crow said he then
began beating Matthews with the sledgehammer and claw hammer, according
to an affidavit.
Matthews was beaten so badly he had to be identified through his fingerprints, detectives said.
Crow was being held at the Marion County jail without bond. It was not immediately known whether he had an attorney.
I did it!

I just want to say, for all of you that are at One Weekend right now, I miss you guys, this is the first year in a while that I haven't been a leader. You guys should rag Madi for that one!

Devotion from Napoleon- My lips hurt real Bad
February 21 2006
Napoleon just wants to go home early. He's had a rough
day at school already, dealing with Don's mockery and Randy's outright
bullying. He just had his head banged against a locker, and he wants out.
So he calls Kip and starts trying to talk Kip into
getting him out of there. Kip is obviously very busy right that second with,
and this is an educated guess, making the biggest plate of nachos ever. We all
know Kip refuses to come pick him up, so Napoleon makes a desperate last-ditch
attempt to get Kip to the school, presumably to talk him into taking him home.
He has chapped lips. And they hurt real bad.
Napoleon is grasping at straws, hoping his complaining
will be enough to get Kip out there.
Kip is having none of it, though, and leaves Napoleon
hanging out to dry, forcing him to finish his school day.
How do you think Napoleon feels about himself here? He's
been openly mocked, bullied in front everybody and rejected by his own brother.
We're guessing the self-esteem meter isn't really maxed out at the moment.
Let's pretend we have a working time machine and that we
can travel way back to about 1400 b.c. This was around the time the children of
Israel
had just escaped from their Egyptian enslavement. For 400 years, they'd been
living under a severely oppressive regime in Egypt—forced into very difficult
labor and seen as second-class citizens. Then, Moses came along as God's
representative and miraculously led them out of Egypt and into the wilderness, where
they were on their way to the Promised Land.
And then they started complaining. Complain, complain,
complain. "We have no food." God provided food. "This food is
boring; we want meat." God provided meat. Wah, wah, wah. On and on.
But my lips hurt real bad.
The Israelites spent much of their time in the wilderness
grumbling and complaining, and God would have none of it. Because of their bad
attitudes and lack of trust, he kept them in the wilderness for 40 years before
leading their descendants into the Promised Land.
Turns out it was the best thing God could have done for
them. Because when it came time for them to go into the Promised Land, they
discovered it was already populated, so they were forced to fight for it. By
spending 40 years in the wilderness, they had a desire for the land that helped
them put aside their pettiness and get to the business of taking their land.
They wouldn't have any room for complaining about this and that—they needed to
band together and fight. Plus, they'd just spent that whole time learning to
trust God to provide food and water for them, so God-trust was now second
nature to them; good thing, because they would need it.
Kip wouldn't listen to Napoleon's complaining. Unlike
God, Kip couldn't see the whole picture and had no idea what his refusal would
do to Napoleon.
Turns out it was the best thing Kip could have done for
him.
Napoleon hangs up the phone and immediately stumbles on
Principal Svadean trying to direct Pedro to his locker. Napoleon strikes up a
conversation, shows Pedro where his locker is located and soon finds himself at
Pedro's house taking the Sledgehammer on some sweet jumps.
Imagine the self-esteem boost Napoleon got when he
extended a hand of friendship to Pedro and saw that hand welcomed. Imagine the
faith boost the Israelites got when they finally entered their land and started
winning battles.
Action, not complaint, is what changed their lives.
So maybe this reminder from the Israelites can help the
next time you face a frustrating situation. It's tempting to complain, and
there's nothing wrong with a little venting. But those complaints will do
nothing to change the situation; action will. Ask God what action you should
take, if any, and then trust that he—not your tongue or bad attitude—will turn
the situation around for you.
Really Encouraged
February 14 2006
This past sunday night I was listening to 107.5 The River. Now I am not a huge fan of this station, but was surfing with my friend, "scan button", and it stopped there. But the sound that I heard broadcasting from the airways was not, 50 Cent, Beyonce, or Fall Out Boy, but was a prayer.
A prayer. What, they don't do that! DawsonMcAllister was on the airways praying for a teenage girl that was wantingto commit suicide. She had drawed the last straw, and was willing to takeher own life. But for some odd reason called this man.To bring you up-to-date on who Dawson McAllister is. For more that 28 years, Dawson McAllister has been speaking to and for the American teenager. A Peoria, Illinois, native, he graduated from Bethel College in Minnesota and then studied at Talbot Theological Seminary. While in seminary, McAllister worked as a youth pastor and began a coffee house ministry in the late 1960's to runaways who had come to Southern California. Recognizing the need to help students nationwide, McAllister founded Shepherd Productions in 1973.
In January 1991, McAllister began broadcasting a live two-hour call-in program for teenagers on 13 radio stations. Dawson McAllister Live! is now one of the fastest growing Christian radio programs. It is now heard in over 425 radio markets and in almost every state in United States. It was also recognized by the National Religious Broadcasters association in January 1994 as the Talk Show of the Year.When he is not hosting his radio program or speaking at a conference, McAllister is at home with his wife and two adopted sons. They live
on a farm--McAllister's an avid horseman--just south of Nashville, Tennessee.
McAllister has written 18 manuals from which he teaches at student conferences. His two most recent manuals are Making Peace at Home and Finding Hope For Your Home. His books include: Please Don't Tell My Parents and How to Know If You're Really in Love.
So for one brief two hours, there was hope and encouragement across a secular radio station for the world to hear. The world that we are suppose to be ministering to and sharing the love of Christ to. The same world that we live in everyday.
I just want to say mad props to Dawson. Oh yeah, in case you were wondering, that girl accepted Christ that night, over the radio, for the whole world to hear.....I'M FREE!!

Look Cool! Be Protected!
An Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie (AFDB) is a type of headwear that
can shield your brain from most electromagnetic psychotronic mind
control carriers. AFDBs are inexpensive (even free if you don't mind
scrounging for thrown-out aluminium foil) and can be constructed by
anyone with at least the dexterity of a chimp (maybe bonobo). This
cheap and unobtrusive form of mind control protection offers real
security to the masses. Not only do they protect against incoming
signals, but they also block most forms of brain scanning and mind
reading, keeping the secrets in your head truly secret. AFDBs are safe
and operate automatically. All you do is make it and wear it and you're
good to go! Plus, AFDBs are stylish and comfortable.
What are you waiting for? Make one today!
