wherefore art thou, Romo?

Today I have converted to a Packers fan. Brett Favre must lead this year’s “team of destiny.”

Thank you to all who expressed their very kind condolences over the Cowboy loss. I could not have kept from gloating…thanks.

Chris Jesse & Wikipedia

What a world we live in. Chris Jesse, the poor soul who reached for a ball while still in play during the Holiday Bowl, already has a post in Wikipedia. You can find it here:  Chris Jesse’s Wikipedia entry.

There is already some dispute as to whether it is “wiki-worthy” or not. He gets the blame for a penalty that a half-dozen other players could have earned at the same time.

Almost…

The Patriots almost lost. Let the Cowboys get ‘em.

Romo

Success is being able to move from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm. – Winston Churchill

What I Said Some Time Ago

“I shall not find Christ at the end of my journey unless he accompanies me along the way.” - Esther De Waal, Celtic Way of Prayer
“Our chance to be healed comes when the waters of our life are disturbed.” – Elizabeth O’Conner, Call to Commitment
"It is not allowable to love the Creation according to the purposes one has for it, any more than it is allowable to love one’s neighbor in order to borrow his tools." - Wendell Berry, Sex, Economy, Freedom and Community
"It has always been more difficult to come to terms with Jesus as the way than with Jesus as the truth. It is more difficult to realize the ways our thinking and behavior get fused into a life of relational love and adoration with neighbor and God, God and neighbor." - Eugene Peterson, "Christian Century", Nov 29, 2003
"Past is past. Past is not present. Did is not do. Was is not is." - John Wesley Weasel in Book of the Dun Cowby Walter Wangerin.
