I was born naked, and unable to care for myself. But I struggled, and people helped me along the way.

Real Freedom

It’s been a very busy year.  I’ve had the pleasure to be paid for covering the Daytona 500, March Madness, The Masters, and tomorrow, The Coke Zero 400.  We’re only 63 days until kick-off of Georgia Football.

Today we celebrate Independence Day, so I will remind you and myself that real freedom comes through Jesus Christ, who has the power to reconcile us to God, that we might obtain the fullness of Life that was created by Him.

Have fun and don’t blow off any of your fingers!

April Fool’s Day

A Merman I should turn to be

Hurray I awake from yesterday
Alive but the war is here to stay
So my love Ramona and me
Decide to take our last walk thru the noise to the sea
Not to die but to be reborn
Away from the lands so battred and torn
Forever forever
Oh say can you see it’s really such A mess
Every inch of earth is A fighting nest
Giant pencil and lipstick-Tube shaped things
Continue to rain and cause screamin’ pain
And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red
As our feet find the sand
And the sea is straight ahad
Straight up ahead
Well it’s too bad that our friends can’t be with us today
Well it’s too bad
The machine that we built
Would never save us that’s what they say
That’s why they ain’t comin’ with us today
And they also said it’s impossible
For A man to live and breathe undrerwater
Forever was A main complaint
Yeah and they also threw this in my face they said
Anyway you know good and well
It would be beyond the will of god
And the grace of the king
Grace of the king

So my darling and I make love in the sand
To salute the last moment ever on dry land
Our machine it has done its work played its part well
Without A scratch on our body when we bid it farewell
Starfish and giant foams greet us with A smile
Before our heads go under we take our last look at the killing noise
Of the out of style
The out of style out of style oh yeah

So down and down and down and down we go
Hurry my darlin’ we mustn’t be late
For the show
Neptune champion games to an aqua world is so my dear
Right this way smiles A mermaid
I can hear atlantis full of cheer
Atlantis full of cheer
I can hear atlantis full of cheer
Oh yeah

On 2015

So, I’ve had a few New Years under my belt and the experienced the resolutions that get made. This year feels different.  I don’t want to make any major changes, except where it will make me more consistent.

This year I want to:

  • Keep my close relationship with Jesus Christ.  It is the most important thing about me.
  • Keep up with Technology.  it’s a struggle, but I don’t have to be the best, just good.
  • Keep forgiving trespasses, so that my trespasses will be forgiven.

Who ever you are reading this, i wish you the best in 2015.  Get after it.

The recent unpleasantness

The recent unpleasantness probably occurred because I didn’t care.

I still don’t really care, though having to hear about it today brought the level of unpleasantness to a higher level.

This season’s dream ended Friday.

I still made good Bloody Mary’s and tried to hype myself up.  It was a beautiful day.  But, I just didn’t care.  Fascinating, as Spock would say.

On Life

If you don’t pitch a fit every once and a while, are you truly alive?  You go through life, and nothing makes you really happy or really sad, or really mad?

The only way I know is not to care.  Don’t have skin in the game.  Stay where it’s safe.

I don’t want to be like that.  I want to take sides.  Believe in something.

Here’s to pitching a fit, whether you’re right or wrong.

Oh, yeah, How ’bout Them Dawgs!!!
