Everyone's Connected

Holiday Weekend
Well now, here's hoping everyone had a great holiday weekend. I spent a good bit of time having fun, taking care of some chores, finishing some reading, and most importantly....
I had 3 days of all Dawson, all the time!
Everyone is Connected?
I spent some time creating an Everyone's Connected (EC) account this weekend. My motivations for doing so are various, but the primary factor is that the General Youth Division now has an EC page and has stated that it is officially pledging to keep everyone updated on all things Apostolic Youth via this venue. Be sure to read Todd Gaddy's comments about this at the August "Month In My Life".
If you are not familiar with EC, it is basically a Myspace type of website that has been hijacked by Apostolic young people.
I look forward to networking with anyone who would like to link to me on EC. I can't give out my exact EC info via this blog because of my enormous popularity as a blogger (I don't want the website to crash due to heavy traffic), but if you can find me, let me know you are out there!
Reading
This weekend I finished reading Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller. Very thought provoking stuff he has there. Miller explores Christian spirituality from a very unique point of view. The only really big problem I had with the book is that at the very end, in the "thanks you's", he credits the likes of Wilco, The Beatles, and other rock bands for providing him a soundtrack with which to write the book. Sorry, but I just don't think that was God speaking to him through "Norwegian Wood".
I am now all set to take a break from the heavy stuff and start reading Peter Pan. I'll let you know how it goes.
Rant of the Week
This weekend I also stopped caring about politics. I know we are nearing an election, and yes I want our borders to be safe and our culture to be Godly, but I have had all I can take. I mean, Sean Hannity isn't going to make it to the election if he doesn't calm down. I can't listen to him go off on people anymore. Months ago I ceased listening to Rush Limbaugh (gasp). I simply do not care what Hillary Clinton, Bill Frist, Ted Kennedy, orare up to. I'll inform myself enough to vote, scan the headlines the next day to see who won, and move on with my life. I am officially off the political bandwagon. I can't take anymore.

amen! I'm tired of all the politicking already, and the major election is still 26 months away.

After you read Peter Pan, I highly recommend [i]Peter and the Starcatchers[/i] by Dave Barry (the retired columnist) and Ridley Pearson.
