A Snow-i-Cane? Really?

I read something online today about a Snow-i-Cane hitting the east coast and I thought to myself: Really? It's just a little snow isn't it? What's wrong with these people? For some perspective, maybe these folks up in the northeast should talk to some folks from Buffalo or Cleveland. To these folks, 8 inches of snow is a "dusting"...

Don't get me wrong, I hate snow too, and I'm just about done with it for this season. But a Snow-i-Cane? C'mon man...My opinion: This is just another one in the long list of WeatherPerson Hypes! It disgusts me...

A Few Good Men

Last night we had a Men's Nicaragua Mission Trip Reunion at my house and I was struck again by what a great bunch of guys I had the opportunity to serve with just a few weeks ago on our trip. Guys who love Jesus, but also know how to have fun. Guys who work hard, but also know how to relax. Guys who are secure enough to laugh at themselves and not take themselves too seriously. I haven't laughed any harder than when I'm with these guys. I'm blessed to call them my friends. Thank-you Jesus for allowing me to serve alongside them for a few days. Thanks for the opportunity to make a difference. It's amazing to me...I went away to help the people of Nicaragua, but I was the one who got help...through the vulnerability of a few good men.
