This is not me, but he’s the same age as me. His last name is actually spelled ‘D-E-Y’ rather than ‘D-A-Y’. No matter how you spell it you still pronounce it the same way.
Welcome to the club !
The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club

I ate Chinese food for Lunch again today – just 47 hours removed from the last time I ate it for Lunch (on Sunday afternoon).
This time it was Panda Express for some of this:
But it’s all about the Fortune Cookie message:
‘You emerge victoriously from the maze you’ve been traveling in.’
‘The Maze’ – 1967-2006
‘The Emergence’ – August 2006
‘The [...]
Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts
Posted in Advertising, Annoyances, Blogging, Driving, Food, God, Home, People, Politics, Television, Travel on 04/29/2008 | 2 Comments »
You know why you’re here:
1. Some of the best television programming on-the-air is in the form of 30 and 60 second commercials. You know that it’s a great commercial when you pretty much stop what you’re doing whenever it comes on the tube – no matter how many times you’ve already seen it. I’m thinking [...]

It’s a quickie ‘Bedtime Stories’ on a Monday night because it’s getting very close to 11 PM EDT (bedtime for me).
Be sure to catch the fun tomorrow afternoon after 4 PM here on the blog as I present to you everybody’s favourite weekly series – the ‘Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts’. You just never [...]
Behind The Scenes At The Major’s Life Blog

This blog is getting ready to enter its 6TH month here on WordPress and 12TH month overall (including the MySpace time). Last night for the first time (since we’ve been here on WordPress) I initiated an ‘Extreme Makeover: Blog Edition’ on this blog that received its fair share of compliments as well as complaints. After [...]
The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club

‘You like participating in competitive sports.’
NOT TRUE ! I like watching the National Football League on TV from the beginning of August through the beginning of February. That’s about as close as I get to competitive sports. I’m not an athlete. I’m a lover not a fighter !
My Favourite Commercial: Paradise By The GoPhone Light
Posted in Advertising, Music, Television on 04/27/2008 | 4 Comments »
This is the extended 1½-minute version of the traditional 30-second commercial that frequently airs on television. It stars rock and roll legend Meat Loaf as ‘Dad’, late-1980s pop diva Tiffany as ‘Mom’, and 16-year-old (at the time) actor-musician Adam Cagley as ‘Son’.
Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad
Posted in Food, God, People on 04/27/2008 | 8 Comments »
1. I was the first person to arrive at the movie theatre this morning. I beat both Pastor Paul and Anne J. by a long-shot. The ‘rock’ in ‘CHURCH ROCKS !‘ was already connected and playing its 3RD song in the main lobby once the other two early-birds finally arrived.
2. Two Names - Lesia & Evelin – [...]

LEFTOVERS – Tuesday April 22ND 2008 – Thursday April 24TH 2008
1. This is the 4TH and probably final edition of the ‘Tossed Salad’ from the Exponential Conference in Orlando this past week. It’s the ‘Leftovers’ edition where I highlight the top items and events that didn’t get covered in the first three editions – such [...]

DAY 3 – Thursday April 24TH 2008
1. I attended Larry Osborne’s session entitled ‘How To Grow A Church And Still Have A Life’. This guy was a fantastic speaker. I could have listened to him speak for hours on end. He spoke on the ’sticky church’. In fact he’s got a book coming out later [...]
The Major’s Walk-A-Thon
Posted in Animals, Food, God, Health, Weather on 04/26/2008 | Leave a Comment »
Sky: Partly Cloudy
Temperature: 72°F
Relative Humidity: 68%
Winds: E 6 MPH
Barometric Pressure: 30.06 Rising
My thoughts:
1. God woke me up at around 6:40 this morning, tapped me on the shoulder, told me to get up and take a shower, and then insisted that I get a-steppin’ with my physical walk around my neighbourhood. He wouldn’t let me sleep in [...]

Greetings Friends and Bloggers. This is the Friday night edition of ‘Bedtime Stories’ – inspired by my dear friend of the past 13 months or so – Ms. Venus Diaz – one of the greatest trash-talkers in my Life Group ! (I’ll deal with you on Sunday morning.)
It’s fast approaching 11 PM EDT on a Friday night, [...]

DAY 2 – Wednesday April 23RD 2008
1. The First Baptist Church Orlando is laid out like a college campus – or at least my personal depiction of what a college campus would look like. I never attended college, so during these three days at the Exponential Conference I got to be the college kid that I [...]
Friday Night Blogroll Review
Posted in Blogging on 04/25/2008 | Leave a Comment »
It would not be Friday night here on this blog without the ‘Blogroll Review’:
Travis reflects back at this week’s Exponential Conference in Orlando, hanging out with 2,800 other Christians, and then figuring out what can work and what may not necessarily be appropriate for our specific Life Pointe Church ministry here in Homestead Florida.
P.J. posted his [...]
