I was being funny. It’s a dilemma, but it’s funny. The stories I could tell from my youth ministry years.

Some unusual Holy Week Sonnets based on the Stations of the Cross from over at Touchstone. Great lyrics.

I’m just returning from the 2007 version of the [Place where I work] Student Government Sponsored Talent Show. The best we’ve ever done. The diversity of [the place I work] really makes such events a blessing. Guitar, dance, rap, duets, all kinds of music. Just wonderful. Made me want to work here a little longer.

The Filter is a music selection program for iTunes. It’s great. Maybe still a little quirky in the Mac beta, but it’s working great for me now that I know what it wants. Picks wonderful song lists. I’ve been putting my music collection on the iMac and really getting some mileage out of The Filter. I highly recommend it. (Yes, it’s free.)

Pizza sounds really good. The fact that the nearest one is 17 miles away is not a deterrent. We’ll take a frozen one and morph it into something.

A Reds team with no names I recognized other than Bubba Crosby lost to the Toronto Bluejays today. I love this weekend before Opening Day. The team disappears and then reappears Monday. BTW- if you can get to a TV with the Cinci-Cubs game Monday, there is going to be a moment in that game when a kid named Josh Hamilton comes to the plate. You want to see this if you can. 17 at bats in single A. No major leagues at bats. Drafted #1 three years ago, blew his career on drugs and booze. Jesus found him. He’s clean for a year. Back with his family. The Reds got him in a rule 5 deal, and he’s been AMAZING this spring. When that kid comes to the plate Monday, I am going to be in tears. He’s a success already. Go Reds!

Watch Hamilton nail a runner with this arm of his. He was a pitcher in high school throwing 95 mph from the left. Any day Griffey doesn’t want to play centerfield, this is what’s on the bench.
