Seeing God All Around Us


Everyone is seeing the image of Christ in food these days.  I wanted to jump on the bandwagon by sharing my story.  Let's just think of this as looking for the hand of God in my daily life.

One of my buddies, gave me a great hair cut today.  If you ask me who cut my hair, I'm suppose to ask you "Do you like it?" And if you say yes, then I am allowed to tell you; it was Randy.

Anyway, when he was finished, we noticed that one side of my hair looked a little wonkie. There was a dark splotch. At first, I thought it was a birth mark but after we both took a closer look, it ended up being a patch of hair still patted down from a baseball cap I was wearing earlier.

If you enlarge the pic and squint, you can see Jesus.
Later, I took a look at it in the mirror and beheld a miracle. From a certain angle, I could clearly make out the likeness of Jesucristo!

It was a comforting moment for me because it was just then that I was feeling very much alone since my last roommate had moved out earlier that morning. Despite being fully furnished, my apartment feels so empty.

Thanks to the little reminder matted into the side of my head, I realize that I am never alone and that my happiness in independent of the weather, how many funny pictures I have stored on my hard drive, or the whereabouts of my past and future roommates.

This is the 512th comic by xkcd.

  1. Is this cartoon your own handiwork or did you find it somewhere in cyberspace?

  3. So did you leave the longer patch as a reminder, or shave it down to size?

Rummi-"CUB" vs. Rummi-"CUBE"

The "Rummikub" Pronunciation Debate Affirmative Constructive: "Cub" For years, I have been a firm advocate and defender of the pronunciation, Rummi-"CUB".  The game box I grew up with spelled it, Rummicub  on the box. However, other productions of the game have variant spellings: Rummykub , Rummy Kube , Rummy Tiles , etc.  Based solely on box spelling, the game's true pronunciation is open to interpretation. Therefore, Rummi"cub" is equally acceptable to any other given pronunciation. Negative  Constructive : "Cube" My opponents argue that since the game originated over seas, we ought to respect and maintain its original pronunciation. Affirmative Rebuttal: Americanization of the Term When the game was brought to America and given Americanized rules, its name was also Americanized. Pronunciation loyalists then counter my rebuttal with, "there are lots of adopted foreign words that have retained their original pron...

Werewolves: Variation on Mafia, the Group Game

I was first introduced to Mafia in 1995 at a Family Home Evening activity. With only 6-players in our family, we selected one Narrator, two Mafia gangsters (murder one person/night), one Detective (ask the narrator about the identity of one person/round), and sometimes we played with a Guardian Angel (who can save one person/round); everyone else were innocent citizens. THE WEREWOLVES OF MILLERS HOLLOW Review and Detailed Explanation Werewolves is essentially the same game. I played it on Monday night for an FHE activity as well. We played 2 games with 10 and 11 players respectively. Each game lasted about 10-20 minutes. IT WAS SOOO MUCH FUN! I can totally see my immediate family enjoying some of the new rules associated with Werewolves . Here is a list of differences between my family's version of Mafia and the way we played it last night. Three main differences 1. New Characters 2. Voting is performed by pointing. (Much more efficient.) 3. The game is pla...

Who's Got The Funk?

I am an amateur guitarist. I've got no funk. And I’m pretty crossed up about it. In my personal quest to discover the funk I came across this bit featuring Old Gregg from The Mighty Boosh. Old Gregg observed that some groups have it for a time, and when they do, they produce timeless hits. He identified that special  something as  The Funk ! But what exactly is The Funk ? Here is some dialogue from the show to help explain its origin and purpose: Disclaimer: This is weird. Old Gregg: You're a musician, yeah? Howard: Yes I am. Old Gregg: Butchya ain't very good, are ya? Howard: I'm one of the best in town. Old Gregg: Come on, I read your reviews. Hmm? You know what your problem is? Howard: What? Old Gregg: Ya ain't got the funk. You're all rigid. Hmm? You're like a breadstick. You got no rhythm. Howard: Yeah, well I've heard all this sort of stuff before thank you. Old Gregg: Well maybe I could help you. I got the funk. Howard: Yea...
