Kids in Jos
Originally uploaded by MikeBlyth.

I did a search on Flickr to see some pics people have posted from Jos, Nigeria. Oh I’m telling you, I’m so ready to go.
I’ll probably add another 200-300 photos to Flickr when I get back around October 12.
Scroll through the pics and enjoy.

Re: ‘Cause I got high

Jacquielynn Floyd over at the DMN notes: “I note with interest that the youngest person busted aboard Willie’s fun bus is 50.
AARP cards notwithstanding, that’s a hard-partyin’ bunch.”

‘Cause I got high


Texas independent gubernatorial candidate Kinky Friedman’s energy czar was busted in Louisiana this morning, for having weed on his tour bus. Wonder if one of Kinky’s opponents set him up?

$8.2 million.

Dallasblog.com is reporting that the City of Dallas is expecting to rake in $8.2 million from newly installed red-light cameras in FY 2007.
Are that many people really running red lights in Dallas?
$8.2 million?
I’m guessing the average ticket is $100. That’s 82,000 people running red lights where the cameras are installed.
Wow. Better slow down folks unless you want to be one of the unlucky ones.

Free Derek Webb

Derek Webb’s latest release, Mockingbird is available for FREE online.
Yeah. Really. Free.
I couldn’t believe it myself.
But Thomas was right. I sent out a few e-mails to friends about it and sure enough as I’m typing this right now, I downloaded the whole album and now I’m adding it to the Orange Noise Radio mix.

Forwarding the gospel

My pastor Brian asks, How do we Forward the Gospel?

How is the good news of Christ to be forwarded in this generation? How does it leap from the pages of Scripture to the hearts of people in need? How does it leave from inside the walls of the church to the streets where people live?
