    Slogans....

    We are moving our things in our new apt. this weekend and i am excited about it... i still  have homework hence i am on xanga.... but it is def. something to look forward to....

    i guess the wedding is not soon enough...  two weeks off of work + wedding + friends + 'my beloved' + honeymoon = awestruck andy on the greatness of God....

    i like want to save each item and use them when i need to... like a Zelda or Mario or something... instead it is like eating a bag of skittles all at once.... 

    I saw a website that creates slogans and i put my name in it... and i thought, they were funny... so here is some

    If you like a lot of Andy on your biscuit, join our club.

    Tough on Dirt, Gentle on Andy

    Come to Life, Come to Andy

    The Andy goes straight to your head.

    Feel the raw naked Andy of the road

    The Andy that like to say yes

    Andy comes to those who wait.

    Have you forgotten how good Andy tastes?

    My Doctor says "Andy"

    He who thinks Andy drinks Andy.

    Happiness is a cigar named Andy...


    anyways... slightly humorous...  check out http://www.thesurrealist.co.uk/slogan.cgi?word=

    Small random knowledge is needed...

    i think sometimes, we make things so complicated...
    busyness is worst than laziness... or is it? so complicated....
    maybe the worst thing is a unbalance in the force...
    or making small things... big...
    or making good things into God things...

    little things can be big...

    this is one of my favorite albums this year... yet the source of name almost made the band a mystery to some of my friends....


    However, this is where the name originates from...




    or maybe this rings bells

    Isn't life so much better when it makes sense...
    p.s. - i was raised by white people...

    Dude needs to shut up...

    i am in class... so that is why i am bored and actually on xanga... will xanga be resurrected? new changes may have been late... normally if there is a three day rule... anything after that... it just doesn't happen...

    there is a short bald, DB yapper in this class... laughs at his own stupid jokes... tries to sound smart... brags about his education... even looks around for people to be impressed by him...

    I been on a health kick lately... coke cherry zero great... is there a difference between diet coke and coke zero?

    Two big thoughts i really learned the last couple days.... really simple but sneaky in your thought process...
           1. God always knows better than i do
           2. Things of God always leads to life, things of sin always leads to death.

    How freakin awesome was LOST finale... I got angel addicted to the first season...

    here are some of my guess conclusions after season 3 finale....
           1. Who was is the coffin in Jack's flash-forward?  My guess, BEN... next guess, Lock....
           2.  Kate ends up with Sawyer.

    Deeper thoughts
        1.  Some views of Hell from Greek culture is an island where "a great schism" is separating  them from everything where  they have hallucinations based on their past decisions...
        2. Jack is listening to 'Nirvana - Scentless Apprentice' which is a song where a son follows his father 'destructive patterns

    i love final cut pro... it rocks....

  • Hmmm... Sometimes I wonder...

        So if I have talked to you in the past so often... you probably know that i am a huge podcast fan... it has had a dramatic effect... biggest being, the ability to listen to my big three fav. great church speakers... {it's a trinity thing, back in the day, i had the trinity of hotness, but that has since faded, another day, another post}... anyways, i always listen to Erwin McManus, Mark Driscoll, and Rob Bell...  Rob Bell, being the one that i feel that i am most like... I've read 'Velvet Elvis' like four times and last week finished SexGod... amazing stuff... He also does these 'Nooma' videos which are a lot of 'velet elvis' teachings in video format, lot of people have seen these...  the teachings are simplistic, creative, and allow the principles to be put in their context... which is very unique... his church, mars hill is the unofficial fastest growing church ever in America, {loosely stated, 0- 10,000 in 3 years}... And I think God started it all... the videos, the books, the megachurch...

    So guess when 'all that' started? The first 'Nooma' video called Rain began filming on Sept 11, 2001... And funny thing, I would probably use that video to best provide insight to the events like 9/11 and the VT shootings...

    Possibly one of fav. my songs, ever...

    I have rocked out to this song... almost everyday the past month....

    Currents

    by Sleeping At Last

    album: Ghosts (2003)

    In this sea of change, understanding is our shore
    I disappear....with no control
    The current is strong, my arms are weak
    But you are the branch within my reach
    Though I cannot catch my breath....

    Pull me back to shore
    I'll never reach my place
    Pull me back to shore
    I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place

    The current is strong, my arms are weak
    But you are the branch within my reach
    In this sea of change, understanding was swept away

    Pull me back to shore
    I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place
    Pull me back to shore
    I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place

    With everything I have, I reach out my hands
    There's nothing to give
    I seem to have no direction, I have no control
    No way to know where currents pull
    All the weight of my intentions
    Are making it so hard to breathe the air at all
    I see in you, coastlines reaching out
    When there's nothing left to reach....

    Pull me back to shore
    I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place
    Pull me back to shore
    I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place

    inside tip:  this song inspired, 'swallow the experience'

    Inside Edition: History of Life

           This past week, I prayed a prayer, watched a TV show, had a "man up" moment, made a phone call, bought a ring, loved some sushidrank some coffee, took a walk, asked a question, landed on cloud nine to eat char-grilled oysters,  then caught some beads for my future wife....

    Bottom Line: I got engaged....

    So i know you missed everything so here is....

    The Top Five Smallest Big Memories of the Past Weekend..

    5. The ugly beast duck that escorted us at the park... he walked in front of us as to say "congratulations, quack, congratulations."

    4. The fact that i thought she knew what i was going to do,  because she gave me a book when i picked her up, called "Helping Guys Become, Men, Husbands, and Fathers"... that is still frighteningly ironic.. book sucks btw.

    3. If you go under a bridge to look for trolls, you might find one and he'll ask you to marry him...

    2. Walking up to a flock of birds is amazing and fun, but they can poop on black pea coats...

    1. Things that last forever are simply blissful, whether it is a tattoo, lifelong friendships, or getting married...
