I don't care who you are, this is funny...

Grassfires

There have been some very large grassfires about 35 miles west of us today. One thing that always amazes me is how much these fires affect us this far away. In the picture below you can (hopefully) see the smoke that is drifting over us. I am including a link to a newspaper article below if you are interested.

Happy Easter

Something to think about in these "hard economic times"

Fort Worth Botanical Gardens

Mary and I spent Saturday afternoon at the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens. Thought others might be interested in the pictures. Feel free to ignore them...my feelings will not be hurt (but Mary will be devastated).

Diners, Drive-ins and Dives...coming to our favorite 5 star gas station

Diners, Drive-ins and Dives recently filmed at the Chef Point Cafe in Watauga, TX. If you live in Fort Worth you should already know this place. If you have visited us we have probably taken you there. It is my second favorite place to take tourists (Babes Chicken Dinner House is #1).

This episode will air on Monday, April 6th on the Food Network. Don't miss it (and have sympathy on us folks that do not have cable).

A (humorous) guide to praying before meals...

Here is another humorous blogpost from "Stuff Christians Like"

Not Knowing Which Meals To Pray Before

The Casserole of Hope

There are a number of blogs I follow on a regular basis. Some are about sports, some about news, and many are humorous (I doubt that surprises anyone that knows me).

Anyway, I recently started following the blog "Stuff Christians Like". It is a guys attempt to "be honest and upfront and hopefully a little funny about the issues the church and Christians struggle with sometimes". He goes on to write that he wants "to say, "Whoa, whoa, please don't judge me or God by Christian radio." I want to admit the times we've dropped the ball on issues or ideas that people called to love their neighbor should have knocked out of the park. I want to blow up misconceptions and preconceptions about what it means to be a Christian."

Anyway, I just read his blog post on "The Casserole of Hope" and thought I had to pass it along". If you grew up in the southern church you will find it humorous. If you didn't, you might find it educational. Either way, you should find it funny. The link is below...
