arrgghh!!!

Last Saturday, my nephew Patrick and I didn't do anything, we just stayed at home and lied around. And if you ask us to do anything, we don't do anything.

Actually, we enjoyed the latest Veggie Tales feature based on a Silly Song from Larry. Our friends Pa Grape as George, Mr. Lunt as Sedgewick and Larry as Elliott entertained and educated us. When I asked my almost 6 year old nephew, "what did you like best about the movie?" He answered "the whole thing!!!" (even the angry cheese curls)

The pirates did actually do something for 90 minutes. In famous Veggie Tales silliness, we learned a lesson that laziness gets in the way of being the hero that the King wants us to be.

The movie was a ton of fun. Go see it with a kindergartener or a friend or a friend that's a kindergartener or acts like one. You'll be humming the song "Rock Monster" for days :)

YHWH

a prayer for the new year...

Take these shoes... Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes... And make them fit
Take this shirt... Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt... And make it clean, clean
Take this soul... Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul... And make it sing
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn
Take these hands Teach them what to carry
Take these hands Don't make a fist
Take this mouth So quick to criticize
Take this mouth Give it a kiss
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn
Still waiting for the dawn, the sun is coming up
The sun is coming up on the ocean
His love is like a drop in the ocean
His love is like a drop in the ocean
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, tell me now
Why the dark before the dawn?
Take this city A city should be shining on a hill
Take this city If it be Your will
What no man can own, no man can take
Take this heart Take this heart Take this heart
And make it break
