miniature minor makes major mess

AP
CLINTON, NJ - reports are in of a toddler who discovered a cannister of spackling on the shelf in his home. at this point, details are still unknown, but it appears that the youngster managed to acquire the spackling, open the cannister, and begin spreading all over the floor, himself, etc. realizing that he had made a mess, the troublesome toddler apparantly decided to try and pull a chair to the kitchen sink (covering the chair in spackling) and wash his own hands. it was there at the sink that authorities finally caught him.

"i just wanted to wash my hands of the whole thing," the diminutive dabbler quipped. authorities are not releasing the name of the spackling-spreading son, but have described him as unbearably cute and, while a pain in the butt at times, simply adorable.


in a related story, this image has been sent to the associated press of the mischievous mess-maker. apparantly, the suspect has been photographed watching a recorded image of himself standing in a bucket. authorities are requesting that if you spot this amateur home-repair contracter, please give him a hug and a kiss and see if you can get the spackling out from under his cuticles.

rachel showed me your blog last night. wow. you either get NO sleep or you watch NO tv except the villianous Gators and probably antiques roadshow. I just saw an entry that said your dad just turned 50. you're kidding, right? Now i'll just go hang myself. wish i had time today to checkout more on your blog, but i'll take time over the weekend.

it's getting closer to another gator(puke) buckeye(God's alma mater) matchup i'm going to need you to shoot me with a tranquilizer gun if that happens. call Sandy and tell her to fasten her seat belt.

by the way, love the poem, but too late you are very cool (even by the official standards of the early and mid 70's)

Love in Christ - Juli

PS - thanks for helping Rachel with her paper - the subject makes me cry and want to MAKE God fix it already

i do sleep and i do watch tv (gilmore girls, lost, the office, scrubs, and yankees/steelers/gators games). i have always found that you make time for what you want to make time for...

it would be cool to have another bigtime matchup between the gators and the buckeyes. and even cooler to watch the gators chomp them up again.

i'm giving away the swamp

so this is a collage called swamp. i made it in february of last year. it is currently framed in a homemade, hand-painted frame. it is paper collage on a book binding panel. it is 7" x 10". and i am giving it away. i've been wanting to have a blog giveaway for some time, and the time has finally arrived. here's how it works. all you need to do is leave a comment on this post. by leaving a comment you are automatically entered into the contest (as long as your comment offers a way for me to get in touch with you, or you know that i know you). the contest will be open until next wednesday at noon, eastern standard time. at that time the contest will officially be closed and i will pick a random number. the person whose comment matches that number wins! for example, if i happen to pick the number 33, the thirty-third comment will win. oh, and one more rule: you can only post ONCE. if you win, i will send you the collage, signed by me, the artist, free of c...

bad haircuts (for a laugh)

everybody needs to laugh.  one good way i have found to make that happen is to do a simple google image search for 'bad haircut.'  when you do so, some of the following gems show up.  thankfully, my 9th grade school picture does NOT show up.  otherwise, it would certianly make this list!  please laugh freely and without inhibition.  thank you and have a nice day.

affirmed

i cannot express today the feeling i have. this picture that i found sort of expresses it but not really. for the last ten years i have poured myself into this vocation, daring to believe that God, the very God of all creation, has called me, even me, to this work. along the way many have affirmed me in this journey, but i have continued to work for the ultimate affirmation, ordination as an elder in the united methodist church. and now i have it. after two grueling (and i mean grueling in every possible sense, really) days i recieved the call today that the board voted to recommend me to the annual conference for ordination as an elder. and as i have already said, i cannot even begin to express the emotion i feel with words like relief, joy and satisfaction. there will be plenty of time for me to reflect on this and i will have more to say about it as i do that reflecting, but today is really a day for celebrating for me, and for thanking those who have journeyed with me and s...
