Rantings of a Pastor/Gamer/Historian/Geek
I was surfing the archives of another blog that I used to write at (very sporadically) and found this little poem I thought I’d share. You see, there was a time period in which my cable company messed up our billing statements, and I didn’t have the internet or cable tv. So, like any good […]
Hey everybody, I just got my computer fixed and decided to christen it with a new blog entry..so here goes:
Have you ever been on a family vacation? If you have, chances are your kids were asking the entire way: “Are we there yet?”. Maybe they got really impatient and had to be sedated with video […]
Well, you know what they say about plumber’s having leaks in their houses and mechanics having broken down cars? The same is true for IT managers. My computer is official a paperweight. It’s not really broken, but I had to reformat the other day, and don’t have all the restore cds. I could solve it […]
Well, I just wrote an entire post using the web-interface of Wordpress. That was my first mistake. My second was taking a while to write the post. As I sat, carefully deliberating on the exact phrasing of my blogtacular masterpiece, my login session timed out. When I pressed submit, I found that I needed to […]
Wow, what a day today has been. This morning the library internet went down. The whole thing. Thankfully there weren’t many patrons here, but I got calls from almost everybody that works in an office. Some of the people I didn’t even know, until they needed something fixed. So, to take my mind off the […]
So, it’s back again. No, I’m not talking about that winged messenger of love, Cupid, I’m talking about our next preview service. This Sunday, February 18th we’ll be taking over the Premiere Theatre’s Mega Screen again. Since I became executive pastor, these things just seem to be coming sooner and sooner. I spent all day […]
Well, since James‘ last post was about how and why he gets destroyed at Halo2, let me tell you a little bit about why he doesn’t have an overall losing record. (We may even be able to find some leadership truth in there somewhere, although no promises.) Here’s the normal scenario:
James and I hook up […]
Has your boss ever asked you to do anything that is “out of your scope”? In other words, something that isn’t in your job description? If there’s anything that I’ve learned over my short pastoral career, it’s that when you become a pastor, people expect EVERYTHING to be in your job description. Now, there’s nothing […]
In my last post, I talked about the in service we had today the Library. One of the most amazing things I noticed was how opposed some people were to viewing the patrons of the library as “customers”. Now, mostly these were the employees that had been at the Library forever. What is their perception […]
As some people know, I work at our local public library as the head of IT. It’s not a bad job, and it definitely pays the bills. Right now I’m on a break in our “in-service” day. What’s an in-service day? Well, that’s just a fancy way of saying free food if you come and […]
