This past summer I wasn't thinking to ever see gas prices below $3.00 a gallon, and now gas is 21 cents below that price. I am sure that a lot of people are seeing this as a good sign -- lower gas prices. But that isn't the vibe I get from them. Sure, lower prices … Continue reading $2.79 — and dropping?
Conglomeration #2
Okay, just finished watching Lego Movie on our downloaded iTunes version. Only took trying another computer to get it to actually play. So seems fitting to show some more Lego creations my son made and photographed:
Lego of my movie
Lego of my movie -- is what we are saying to iTunes. We aren't big users, The Lego movie was our first purchase. Funny, I have more success streaming movies from Amazon that I have had with a completely downloaded iTunes movie that we are trying to play on the computer.

A conglomeration of sets
Decided to do a quick blog -- these are some images of Lego figures my son did a couple of years ago and then took posed pictures of. Not sure if these are Bionicle or Hero Factory -- or a combination of both.
Church Music — start them young
Today I did another Michael Card song, from 1992 -- "Then They Will Know", part of his The Word album on the prophets. I will share more about that later. But first I want to feature Adrianna Trevino, who sang her first Introit and Call to Prayer today in the 8:30 service. Here are pictures … Continue reading Church Music — start them young

The correlation of numbers is just as good as the correlation between the stock market and the price of butter in Bangladesh (follow the price of butter in Bangladesh and … Continue reading White (dis)privilege

The Captains
Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before. We are watching a special, narrated by William Shatner, as he interviews all the captains of … Continue reading The Captains
It is your destiny …
Destiny. Do we find it or does it find us? Do we make it or does it make us? Or is it all just something to fake us out of doing the things we really want or really should? Avatar: The Last Airbender had a lot of talk about destinies, and finding them, being favored … Continue reading It is your destiny …
First Tuxedo
Thursday night is a first for Nathan -- He gets to wear his first Tuxedo -- as part of the Sophomore Choir at the North Kansas City High School Choirs Concert. They had a closet at the back of the music room with Tuxedos for the choir. It is a $15 fee for the year. … Continue reading First Tuxedo
