Stryper

Growing up I didn't really listen to a lot of music. I listened to Rich Mullins and Michael Jackson. Seriously what other music was worth listening too. But eventually I began to branch out. I never ventured too far into the heavy metal world, but my parent's did let me buy a Stryper album.

Well thanks to my friend J-Mac I bring you this...



I remember the day I stopped listening to Stryper. My dad was not too impressed with them and in order to demonstrate why they and their music was bad he lectured my brother Todd and I..
It' wasn't because better music could be found. Or that their lyrics were really evil. But he said they wore their spandex pants to reveal their packages.
It was such an awkward conversation that I think I just gave in and just threw the album away.

Killer Eggs

I think these are amazing, and I don't know why.

Question

Why do we call a wrist watch a watch? Shouldn't it be called a wrist clock.
We don't ever say "grandfather watch" or "cookoo watch".
I'm sure there has to be an answer.

Either way I don't wear a watch. The last one I wore was destroyed in a 15 man battle royale in a college dorm room eight years ago. (FYI - A wrestling match I'm sure I won. )

Quotation Again

G.K. Chesterton: "Poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese."

This is still true today.
Does anyone have or would create a poem about cheese and post it for me?

Quotation

"Close proximity between giver and receiver created a sense of investment on the part of the giver and a feeling of obligation in the receiver."

John Ratzenberger stated this in his book, specifically speaking about the relationship between factory owners and factory employees, and the community they built together (while building a product).

It's been on my mind this week. I've been placing this in several different context, considering how it applies. Context like:
- My relationship with God
- My spiritual community
- My job
- My parents
- My past relationships
- My future roommates.

I curious if anyone has any thoughts on the quote and how it might apply to one of your relationships.
