Various clips

found this site earlier this week - it's a collection of various video and cartoon clips. Some funny, some thought provoking.

a summary - maybe?

I was thinking of tracking down the various posts on the discussion about "The People Formally Known AS....." and linking them all together.

Then I found this.

Thanks for doing this, Brother Maynard...

Emergent church?

Been reading (and commenting) on some posts recently from the "emergent" church - from those who consider themselves a part of it, and from those who are watching it unfold. It reminds me of number of different movements within the church that I have read about, with the internet being the big medium for this movement.
There are a number of sites that I have been reading regularily - i will post them later -

The second overtime period of the Vancouver / Anaheim game just started.

You know..... Priorities..... :-)

UPDATE

Vancouver just scored! Go Canada!

mediation works.....

Well, I've got the morning off, and just arrived back from Residential Tenancies Branch. We had a hearing today with our landlord about a dispute regarding the amount of money we should pay for the repairs to the house we used to rent. The Branch offered us mediation, we all agreed, and - Halleluiah! - we came to an agreement that makes more sense than the amount our landlord was originally asking for. It's an answer to prayer, but I kind of wish we had been able to do this before this spring. But at least it's done.

So I've got the rest of the morning off. (without pay). Think I'll work on some personal music stuff.

Everyone have a great day!

The rabbit and his wife....
























Gotta put this up. Here's me in costume and Suzanne in her dress. Fashion show went very well..... This year it was Alice in Wonderland.


Suzanne's table looked great. The material is sari dress material she found in a small shop near our new house.

What a day

First....

Nathanael has a bad day at school. We got a note from the teacher.

Second....

Ezra got away from Suzanne at 12:30. She was spotted running in the Shopper's Drug Mart parking lot on Portage about 4:00. She also went into the store.

Someone cornered her in a small yard about 4:30. That's when she came home.

Just realized - some of you may not know... Ezra is a 9 year old greyhound.

Third.....

Chris had physio and practice today... so the wrists are quite sore.

Fourth....

Mojo got into the garbage yesterday... and got sick today. We don't know what she ate, but it emptied her on both ends...... multiple times. We think (= hope) that she is finished now.

Thank you, God - there is no Fifth.
