Blogging From The Homeland


We are in Venezuela for the next two weeks. Our blogging might be less than what already is but I'll try to keep you all posted on our adventures south of the border.

Love The City, Hate The City


We love living in the city, we love the city life...that is of course until those-that-we-dont-speak-of come in the middle of the night and smash our car window or slash our tires like it happened a few months ago...what are we supposed? We called the police and I guess we made the joke of the day because they didn't even bother to come to our house. $200 later I'm so upset I can't even contain myself, it's not about the window or the money but how stupid you gotta be to just go and smash someone else's window or slash their tires, so ignorant. I pity the fool.

Company Holiday Party


Today is my work's Company Holiday Party (CHP). The ultimate social event for people lovers and those who love to hang out with a thousand other people they don't know. Not my favorite kind of event. Let's face it, CHPs can be really awkward sometimes; Some people shouldn't be there, others do things they shouldn't, while there are others you don't even know why they are even there. It's even more interesting when you work for a large corporation and that's all I'm going to say about that.
MentalFloss had two really great posts today about the subject, one is about incentives at work and another one about corporate holiday parties, I must confess I've been laughing the whole day reading the comments, that's why I wanted to share them with you for your own entertainment.
So as I take off to the CHP tonight I guess I can feel better that there are others that are really having a much worse time at their CHP. Enjoy.

You Better Watch Out...


Google is coming to town!

The Twin Cities were added to GoogleMaps Street View. This means you can navigate through the streets of the TCs using Google Maps' feature Street View. Basically you move the little yellow man where you want to go and it will show you a 360 degrees view of that street, and of course, you can navigate through like if you were driving in it.

Yes, I already checked out my address...I'm 99% positive it is the first thing everyone does and I'm pretty sure it is the first thing you are going to do too.

Next I will check my work, school, church, friends' houses, etc... Like if I've never been to those places before... :-

Shooting at YWAM in Colorado

Please pray for all of those affected by this tragedy. We have friends in that base and as many of you know we are part of YWAM as well.

The Devil's Advocate


One thing I've learned about myself lately is that I like to play the Devil's Advocate, at first I didn't like it but I think it is necessary sometimes.
Last night at church Pastor Rob was talking about the nativity scene, how Joseph who wasn't Jesus biological father took Mary to Bethlehem and took care of her and Jesus was born. So I started thinking, the bible says the Messiah (Jesus) was to be from the line of David, Joseph was from the line of David, so, if Joseph is not considered to be Jesus' father, because Mary was virgin and it was all by the Holy Spirit and Mary was not from the line of David, how come Jesus is considered to be from the line of David?...hmmm...
I'm pretty sure if I do my homework and do a little research I can find the answer myself, but, I thought it was an interesting question.
In case you are wondering, no, I'm not about to start a new cult.
I guess this one will go on the list of "Questions to God for when I get to heaven" which includes "God can you show me a new color different to all the known ones?" and "Do Aliens really exists?"
