Studied. Shocking!

Enjoying reading Moonwalking with Einstein.

I captured a squirrel this morning. First one in five months, mainly because I wasn’t even trying. Yesterday, I noticed one eating the suet that I leave for the birds. That’s my cue to start trapping again. I’ll keep that trap out loaded for a while again. I just wasn’t seeing many squirrels after I trapped over forty last year!

Keeping them covered with a towel keeps them calm. I let them go in a forest aver five miles from my house on the other side of the Yellow River and highway 78. If they can swim the river AND cross that crazy highway they deserve to eat some of my bird food. . . until I catch them again!

Recorded a new episode of Verbal Surgery called, “Peek-a-BOOM!”

Made a series of phone calls to some of my best friends. Anthony was in England. Bob Burns in Scotland and Michael Perez in the Philippines. Love this internet!

Bob Burns was teaching a class. He had the whole class greet me! Hilarious. Anthony did that with his class he and his dad were teaching last week. What a trip.

Also had a good chat with my brother, Jim. Always good to spend time with him.

I made an evaluation of what I’ve got memorized. There are three whole chapters I have memorized in the Bible. Plus several sections I’ve memorized in Hebrew! Also over twenty different poems.

I started thinking about what it would be like to memorize all the red letters in the Bible. That’s everything that Jesus said! First step? Evaluate exactly how much that is. I got a Kindle edition of a book called “The Words of Jesus” It’s fun to read, but I’m not sure I’ll memorize it all. Just the passages that mean the most to me.

As part of my Contact Resolution, whenever I start thinking about someone, I do my best to contact them. Today, as I was thinking about child development, Rick Yount’s name came into my mind. He was one of my favorite professors at SWBTS. Later, I did some research, discovered he was in New Orleans, and dashed out an email to him.

We set up for The Show for tomorrow with our team. Looking forward to it. Hope they’re as fired up as we are!

As much as I hate getting up earlier, It’s great to see it light later!


Talked with my Mom on the way home from setting up at the church.

I worked on one of the lights for tomorrow. The settings had changed. Should work fine, now.

Watered my plants.

Admin duties now.
