Stats Stink Sunday...

Hello Sunday, you arrived again so soon. How do you do that? Can we possibly slow down time just a hair? Here is the standard, or should I say generally accepted, form for this weekly assignment.

• Really, can we slow down time just a little? How about going to something like 74 seconds in a minute instead of the standard 60. (Boy, that would be a bigger hassle than the switch from daylight savings time to standard time.) You know, we could do that and call it the “clock makers stimulus package”.
• Went to hang at a local event in our town called Movies in the Park. We didn’t stay for the movie, but hung out long enough to visit with several good friends.
• The weather here today is just obscene! Who would have thought that in late August that it would be 71 degrees and breezy. I mowed the front yard yesterday and didn’t break a sweat. SWEET!
• Isn’t it interesting that the only difference between the word SWEET and SWEAT is the letter A? Oh, sorry. Maybe it is only me that finds that interesting…
• I am now craving fall and winter (my two favorite seasons).
• Today I had to play guitar for worship. I have not had to play guitar for many many months now because I am on bass so much. As luck would have it we did this acoustic “unplugged” feeling worship set. It was really the bomb in the end. Great keys player and some really choice percussion with some pretty tight three part vocals. It was nice and organic. To top it off, I could really feel the presence of the Lord in the place.
• Do you really know how hard it is to get the fake fingernails off your real fingernails? Nothing in the whole world should ever fall apart if you use the glue that comes in those kits. Wow!
• Took my Telecaster into the world famous Glaser Instruments here south of Nashville for a set up and plek job. These guys at Glaser do guitar work for all kinds of serious guitar players in this “guitar town”. (Shameless reference to Steve Earle. Was he the original Alt. Country guy?) I just can not wait to get the Tele back. The guy behind the counter asked me how I wanted the action set up once the fret leveling was done. My answer was “what does play like butter mean to you?” His answer was “gotcha, butter is what we do around here.” Now I should probably concentrate on being a better guitar player!
• I’m hungry.
• A friend brought me three pounds of okra this morning. I can not wait till we turn it into some real deal south Louisiana gumbo! Yummy!
• I have been very forgetful lately and I do not understand why.
• I have been very forgetful lately and I do not understand why.
• Headed out in about an hour to play bass for our Sunday evening youth event. Should be good!

Did I mention that I have been very forgetful lately? (Think I have worn the funny out of that one by now.) In closing of this random scatter shot of things I hope that your world this next week is full of blessings. Look for God in all things and you will see His fingerprints often.

Be a blessing!
