Google Fight : Paul Martin VS Erik Hersman
I hate to pick a fight with friends at Christmas but I couldn’t help myself. I looked at this for way too long. Don’t visit the link unless you have some extra time.
BTW, I only win because of the Prime Minister

I know that this is news to anyone reading this but people are crazy. To prove this statement, let me tell you about a trip to get gas today. I pull up at my local BP on Lake Underhill Rd. and start pumping my gas for 2.18 a gallon. OK, that is crazy right there and I could just stop with a nod to the fatc that I’m crazy, but it gets better. I am pumping away just thinking about my day, and suddenly I hear the sound of gas being sprayed outside a car. I look over the pump and there is what I assume is a grandfather and grandson drenched in gas. The grandfather is holding the nozzle in his hand outside the car with gas still dripping from it. Both are soaked. He immediately puts the nozzle back into the gas tank receptacle and starts pumping again as if nothing ever happened. Grandson has this I can’t believe this expression on his face. Then as I am wathcing this debacle, a woman in a white lexus drives off with the pump still in her car. Totally oblivious, she drives off, cracks the end of the nozzle off, dents her car and looses her gas cap, AND DOESN’T EVEN NOTICE! So a man who is very perceptive to these things almost runs her down to point out that she has not been paying attention to the reality going on around her. She then gets out and starts ranting and raving (not the techno kind of dancing) because he has almost hit her. All of this happened within 5 minutes.
I was so amazed at how people could be so oblivious to their surroundings, that I looked around my car 4 times before pulling out. I have concluded from this experience that people are crazy. True. True.

The Source: Welcome
This a shameless plug for a site that I have loved and enjoyed. This guy has been doing what we call youth ministry for such a long time and was even nice enough to share his resources. There are many things on his site from games to Bible studies, but the things I like the most are the tips in ministry that I need to be reminded of constantly. Although I differ in practice than him often, this guy really has some great things to say.
