Maybe the sweetest question I’ve ever had to answer on a survey…okay I lied, DEFINITELY the sweetest question.  Interestingly enough there wasn’t a “you have a problem” option for me to choose, so I skipped it.

Tim Tebow's Wild Side

This dude is impressive.  Period.  The only way you can dislike him is if you have some problem with how much attention ESPN gives him.  His parents have to be among the proudest in the world.

Notice: Philanthropy Wanted

There really should be more philanthropy coming from the celeb/sporting world.  I understand there are some pretty generous people running around in these circles, but if you think about the lavish amounts spent on material possessions it pales in comparison.

Love it!

I’m not really much of a fan of interpretive dance or drama or whatever this is, but I can’t help but get goosebumps when I watch this video.  In my opinion, a dead-on symbolic interpretation of the war being waged between good and evil each and every day.  Luckily, we know who wins in the end (Revelation 20).  Despite this, we tend to struggle to live our lives in a way that shows we know how it ends.  How often do we focus on the temporary conveniences/pleasures of life instead of the gifts given to us by God (namely His grace)?  Thankfully, as shown in this video, God never gives up on us because of His perfect love (1 John 4).

I just want to be an overpaid, uncaring, lazy teacher… (via Greg Knuth)

Came across this on Facebook

Mr. Knuth’s class 

Italicized = teacher key

1.

Cost of ONE Tomahawk Missile: $$1,066,465

120 Missiles fired at Libya cost:                       

120x1066465=$$127,975,800

2.

The AVERAGE, “overpaid”, teacher salary is ~$$50,000/yr

 How many teachers could have been employed with the money spent attacking Libya this week alone??                             

127,975,800/ 50,000= 2559.516 teachers

3. Essay (please limit responses to under 6-7 pages)

Why do we support a corrupt dictator in Egypt, Deny aid to revoluntaries in many middle eastern countries, and attack in Libya and Iraq?
