Yesterday, I forgot to mention something from the sermon I heard Sunday. Actually, the sermon triggered a 30-year-old memory. He was preaching from Acts 17 and talking about Paul speaking before the Areopagus at Mars Hill. Years ago, we had a lawyer speak to our Sunday School class about this text. He discussed how Paul presented his case, what legal techniques he employed and why they were an effective strategy, how he started with their own beliefs and writers and then refutes those points. I think that may be the only single SS lesson I remember.
Guess what we did last night? That's right. We tried a different Goodwill, ever on the search for a bargain. I ended up buying Titanic:The Board Game and a 2.4GHz wireless router. No, I don't know anything about the game, but it looked interesting. Hopefully, we can test it before Ouray. And we saw a card-based version of The Game of Life at Target the other day. I know we really like the Monopoly Deal game, so I may spring for it.
I plugged in my iPod Touch all night and it ended up losing battery life and not recharging. I guess, when the computer goes to sleep, it does not charge. That's just wrong. So, I brought in the cable to work today and am charging it while I type.
My calendar shows my 8:30am call, a training class I must give at 10am, and a conference call at 2:30pm. Otherwise, I am free to investigate a problem that allows people to charge time against a canceled project, and setting up a Sharepoint site. Sounds fun, right?
It is still fairly quiet around here so far, but I need to finish and review the 8:30am agenda before the call. So, thanks for spending a few minutes listening to my rambling. Ramble by again tomorrow.

No comments for four days. Hope your ratings don't get so low that your blog is cancelled. But if it does, don't go Charlie Sheen on us.
That was not from Paul and Kari. Apparently one of those jerks was last on Facebook on my computer. My computer should know better.
By the way, the word showing for verification is "splain". Obviously a sign that I should "splain" to Paul and Kari about the proper use of my Facebook access.
Or Blogger. Whatever.
Ooo. I hope they don't see that you called them jerks. Or maybe that was also someone else on your computer.
Just stopped by to do my part to boost Crazy Uncle's credibility in the blogosphere. And, yes, it really is me ... whoever that is.
(My verification phrase is "const". It's both creepy and gratifying to know that the good folk at blogger.com recognize what a reliable guy I am.)
I see that Grandmom has been on Blogger again. Sorry about that.
