I read your blog a lot. I don't have one of my own, but enjoy reading others'. I especially liked your blog on gluttony. It is surprising how many Christians there are who don't seem concerned about this sin. I'm sorry that you haven't seen the ocean or mountains. I live in Washington state and get to see them regularly. In fact, I live very close to Mt. St. Helens. What amazing works of God!

I'm only 5'8" as well. I also have one pierced ear. I did that back in high school.

One of my favorite Bible chapters is Psalm 4.

Keep up the great work, your theology and blog are excellent.

 

I don't know if mine is better :) You are definitely generating more traffic :)

Cheers! And how's the kid? :)

 

you really have to, HAVE to, go see oceans and mountains!

 

Hey, I'm just 5'8" myself. We have more in common than I thought.

Jeremy - I had mine pierced when I was in grade five or something like that - my mom pierced it at home with an ice cube and a needle. (it hurt!)

Frank - the boy is doing awesome (so is mom!). Of all our children, this one has been the easiest - and markedly so, not only in the delivery, but also in the post delivery time. Mom is up and about - and baby is doing very well.

Fred - it is a good height to be!

 

Hi Daniel,
I got my ears pierced the same way you did. Yes, {{{squeeeeak!}}}
Ouch!
You really shouldn't put simply the word "junkie" - it has such a wide range of applications. It could mean anything! (you don't want to give the "wrong" impression, do you?)
:~)

Replace junkie with "an habitual user of contraband who was utterly and nigh-irrevocably submerged in several aspects of the consequential criminal culture."

I should have put a smiley face on the end of that..

:-D

there.

 

"I am half French, half Dutch." Sounds like your origin is Belgian to me!

NEVER seen mountains or sea? I'm ... speechless. I struggle to live sanely more than several months without seeing either. Deary me.

 

My father was born in holland, and my mother is first generation French - I learned to speak English with an accent that was often mistaken for Belgian.

Lord willing, I will see both mountain and sea one day.

 

Get your gear ready Daniel. My husband and I are getting in our car right now and will personally drive you out to see the Pacific Ocean. We should be at your house in about three days.

 

Daniel, all your talk about farms, the smell of mown grass, and the dust of baling hay is making me home sick! I was born in Sasktchewan, and my "second parents" live south of you. I didn't make it to the farm this past summer....missed out on those smells!

 

Yea thanks for reading the "how's mom too" in the "how's the kid?" part :)

Dude, I grew up in the flatlands of Minnesota, and then moved to Arizona, I can't go back man. The mountains mean too much and the ocean is only eight hours, I gotta see the ocean at least six to ten times a year.

 

and another question, does the last five things mean I'm tagged?

 

I tried to stay away from "direct tag inference" - that is, people get tagged over and over, so instead I clandestinely suggested a tag in a way that allows people to bow out gracefully.

But since you noticed - yeah, your tagged. ;-P
