Not the normal type of post, but did anyone else notice the connection between the death of the african rain queen ( Rain queen dies at 27 ) last week with president bushs most recent announcement about aid speeding to africa? ( Bush pledges to speed up aid to Africa )
I’m surprised our amazing media didn’t catch this, very very interesting. Who says there isn’t a massive media bias. psh.

So I’m working on Midwestskier a little bit again and I was looking at the space usage and couldn’t figure it out. It said I was using 670 megs of my gig. I have taken most of the old site down and am playing with some cms stuff and the numebr didn’t shift… weird is what I thought first. Then I decided to check the dump email account… yea, only 69,315 messages in the inbox (or about 3470 pages to list the email)… thats all spam from the last year that didn’t get read. hmmm, now to see if I can turn mailbox dumping off and empty it out. haha.
For the past several months there has been an on going struggle that has been gripping me. Tonight I finally started to realize what it truly was I am having such a hard time over. What to be? It seems like such a basic question, one we even ask to elementary students (thought their answers will almost inevitably change). For me it has been everything from astronaut to paleontologist, Film writer/producer/director to missionary and they are all missing one thing from their answer. Who for, and it is of the utmost importance that this question should preface everything we look for and desire in our future.
New Website Design, software, and am still in the process of moving old posts over to the new system. So pay attention to dates if you’re glacing by.
Recently I’ve been reading a lot of the old testament while working through a book on the prophets by the renowned Jewish scholar Abraham Heschel called “The Prophets” as well as continuing to work on my prayer life and reading a short devo book by Andrew Murray titled “Absolute Surrender” and there have been some startling conclusions I’ve drawn. Let my point out a few things, I haven’t had a lot of time to look deeply into this, so there will more then likely be more in the future.
So two things have been going on lately. My super nostalgic trip as I’m updating my new blog software with all my old posts. It’s crazy to read where I was at back then and to see where I am now, how I’ve changed, the things I’ve left behind and those which I’ve been so fortunate to gain, and how much more intimate my relationship with Christ is now. So far I’ve moved about one-hundred some posts of about two hundred and sixty, and it’s really interesting to read. I’m starting to get it, to get that I’ve been called to ministry, and away from skiing. I’m currently at January 16th, 2004. It’ll be interesting to keep reading them as I move them over.
Alas long distance, it’s so surreal to even think about. I know that Jordan isn’t just over in Wausau, I saw her off at the airport last week, but I still don’t think it’s completely hit me yet. (more…)
