 | Currently Reading (for the Third Time) Out of the Silent Planet (Space Trilogy, Book One) By C.S. Lewis see related |
Okay, in all honesty, there's a part of me that's posting this just because having Maskerade in my "Currently Reading" spot keeps making Mom get "Masquerade" from Phantom of the Opera stuck in her head. Maybe this will help, Mom... now you can start your day off with any Phantom song you like.
So I've stuck up the book I'm re-reading, Out of the Silent Planet. I think this is in keeping with my recent mission-trip itch (both because the second book of the trilogy, Perelandra, deals with the principal character becoming the first interplanetary missionary and because the last time I re-read the trilogy was two years ago on my last trip to Russia).
Speaking of mission trips, I heard from the Union Campus Ministries office, and the GO Week leadership team gets to move back in early, on August 21. Now I'm even more excited to get back to school... and I need to e-mail Gypsy about the newspaper retreat this year.
Today was a good day; we watched the pirated DVD of Revenge of the Sith that Dad picked up in Indonesia after going to Home Depot for TWENTY light bulbs. Fun times.
On a side note, I've been told that my blog is too well-written to be read by some bloggers.
Muahahahaha.
Sorry. I'm just very glad to hear that people think it's well-written. Journalism majors aren't your average bloggers, after all.
Things have been quiet, so it's not a long blog entry. But things have been nice, as well, so that's good.
I'll be going to bed now.
G'night.

I've finally discovered that you have a "what's new" division of your blog. I agree that it's too well written by the average bloggeer with the "wuz u up 2, G?" or the "my life sucks, pray for me" or the "I haven't updated in like forever, cuz nobody comments, but if i have time i'll do it L8ter." Unfortunately, I'll never bothered to read either. But in due penance for my sins, let me just leave a comment to say that pirated DVDs are surely the first step towards the Dark Side. As the good hypocrit that I am (with hundreds of 8-bit roms on my PC) I will try to prevent you from going down a dark path...
If you send me a copy of that RotS disc, that is!

Adam Winters, wuz up, G?
That is, thanks for the comment. :-) I have to say, we're going to miss you around school next year. And fear leads to anger, anger to hate, hate to suffering. THAT is the path to the dark side. Pirated DVDs lead to entertainment. Good entertainment leads to enjoyment. Enjoyment leads to good will. Good will leads to good works... in many cases, at least. Therefore, Pirated DVDs are - if obtained legally - not the path to the Dark Side at all (the fact that it's the easier, quicker, more seductive manner of getting it... we'll just ignore that for the time being).
