Pick of the week

"Church structure can allow or disallow for the reavealing of gifts and talents of Christ's body...everyone has a spiritual gift, everyone has abilities, talents, experiences, and passions to share...it's time for churches to change the way they do church and allow the body to express itself..." (KK)

a confession and correction

Have you ever jumped on a band wagon because all of your friends had jumped on it and just this once you didn't want to stand back and watch as the wagon continued on without you? You know, all of your friends laughing and enjoying the booty of the band wagon while you stand your ground all alone.

I'm not typically a band wagon jumper but once in a while I just don't want to get left out.

That's how I felt with the new NEEDTOBREATH album...everyone was talking about it and raving about it and chair dancing along to it while they were driving down the highway and I felt left out. So I borrowed it. And I decided before I listened to it that I already loved it.

And I made it my pick of the week.

I am feeling sheepish.

Because after having listened to it a lot over the past couple weeks I'm really not so sure that it is my pick of the week, ever. There are good things about the album, musically it is brilliant! There is a lot of texture and different sounds that really work on this album. However, lyrically...I'm not really sure what they are trying to say, in any of the songs. I've listened to them over and over but I just feel...the lyrics are weak.

I'm sorry.

Day three of the trip!





At the Goveners House we met Barry
A security guard who was merry!
He took pictures with us
And made not a fuss
Then at the "Ledge" we were fairies!



On a very hot day in the car
All our brains were turning to tar
Our poems were all lame
They won't bring us fame
On that very hot day in the car





At Big Muddy where cowboys did roam
We all felt so small and alone
'til along came a crowd
Who was very loud
At Big Muddy where the sun always shone






So we followed these "J Dubs" around
Though we knew not where they were bound
We say USA
And where outlaws did play
But at our tracts they surely did frown (oh well!)




Limerick is a small town in Sask
Where? You may jolly well ask
It's just past the Giant
I keep telling my client
To take pictures is a very big task
