Interview of the month May 6, 2008
Interview of the Month , add a commentSince this feature started it’s been ten months and I’ve done only five interviews. Since “Interview of Every Second Month” just doesn’t sound as good I’m stepping up the pace. I’ve even done next month’s interview in advance and timestamped it - do I rule or what? I figure if by the end of the year I can bring up my average to an interview every 1.5 months at least, I’ll be happy. That being taken care of, on to more interesting things, like:
I’ve been thinking that if my friend Dan Emerson in all his awesomeness is but a chip off the ol’ block - how awesome must his dad be, since Dan is a diluted version of him? A concentrated version of Dan; is such a thing possible? We’ll discover this together right here on 77ZI, hopefully - you know…if he answers. Interview guidelines found here.
So Dan’s dad, firstly, what is your current name and what names have you held throughout your lifetime?
State your favorite and least favorite country that you’ve lived in and why.
What where you doing with your life when you met the Family and were you one of the “I knew in that moment that I was supposed to join” types or did it take longer?
Name three of your heroes when you were a teenager and three of your heroes now.
Most memorable construction moment?
If you could go back in time to before you had kids and give yourself one piece of parenting advice, what would it be?
Have you ever held a job that you were entirely unsuited for but did out of necessity or for the cause of Christ?
What trait has Dan inherited from you that is most apparent to you?

The Latest, Interview of the Month , add a commentHeh. Heh. Check out page 25 of the latest Link (#34). My Interview of the Month with Robin in January made it as the featured article with pictures and everything. I feel like I’ve been published, vicariously! She gives an mightily impressive picture of the missionary work in Uganda and if you don’t have access to the Link, read it here and be amazed.
While we’re on the topic, like the importunate woman I put out another heartfelt-yet-totally-un-pressured-and-utterly-non-demanding-while-
remaining-entirely-sincere invitation to Robin to finish the interview, only if you feel like it. And I promise this is the last time I’ll ask
Interview of the month February 28, 2008
Interview of the Month , 12 comments by Ezra, Peter, Gigi, Jamie, Maria doehler, Angel, Woozers, Paula, Lani, and Naty.It’s that time again - that time being the time that I feel like doing another interview. It’s been a bit of a gamble doing these interviews and this particular one feels like more of a gamble then the other ones and here’s why. See, I want to interview a couple with kids, so I hopped on el MO site photo section and found this fine-looking couple named Ezra and Gigi. I know them only from the MO site and My Conclusion, our Family version of Googling someone. e.g. “I myconclusioned you”. Also, I have carefully analyzed my Clustermaps and I’ve noticed that I don’t get a whole lot of readers from Brazil, which is where they last were according to My Conclusion, which means that I have to count on the chance that someone who reads my blog from Brazil will know Ezra and Gigi and pass it on to them and that they’ll want to reply to a interview from a strange woman they have never met who puts headless photos of herself at the top of her blog. So yeah, a bit of a gamble. Still, hope springs eternal and God and the Internet have not failed me yet in this regard, so here’s to hoping!
(Speaking of hope; Robin, I hope you will finish your interview. It seems so selfish to ask when you’ve already given such a bounty of information. But I do hope, and I’ll keep hoping, because hope springs eternal.)
Interview guidelines, as ever, are found here. By the by, I’d love to get answers from the both of you on all but the top two questions, but I’m guessing that if you get around to answering, it’ll probably be around 11:30 at night and seriously cutting into your window of opportunity for conjugal congress, or some other time when you’re equally pressed for time, so if you both can’t get around to most of the questions, I understand.
Gigi, how did you meet The Family International and how long afterwards did you join?
Gigi: My best friend at the time, was who met the Family first. We were both lawyers, party partners, we basically did everything together. Her boss met one active member who sold him a phone line, and who was also a lawyer! That’s probably the reason why my mom thought it was a lawyer’s sect. Ha! Anyway, she witnessed to him and invited him for a bible class at her house. He went and really liked it, so started inviting my friend to go with him. Since he was her boss, after some time it was kind of weird to keep saying “no”, so she phoned me and said:” Oh, I guess I will have to go to this bible class…” I told her that I wasn’t going, no way! I believed in Jesus, but I really disliked churchy people, especially the ones saying hallelujah all the time, getting super loud and all that goes with it. It ended up that she really liked it, and told me that the kids were super sweet, etc. I asked her: “Do they say hallelujah?” She answered:” Well, yes they do.” I said: “Are you out of your mind? There’s no way I am going!” To make a long story short, after seeing the change in her, and after a night that she was convicted and told me that she was going to the bible class, instead of going to a super nice outing with “me”, I was really curious to go and see what it was all about, since we were very close and I knew she wasn’t the churchy type. I finally went, liked the people, loved the children, but was still really attached to my old life, until the Family retreat came, which totally changed my life because there I felt the Spirit of the Lord so strongly inside of Me, and I felt His love so tangibly that I was on a high and didn’t want to ever come back. It was something between me and Him, that He knew was needed to convince me to change my life. So I started going to the discipleship classes, stopped smoking marijuana and was an active member (although the Family didn’t have this classification at the time). After a year I already knew that I wanted to join and be a full time missionary since I disliked being a lawyer in a corrupted and antichrist system. So I quit my job, and here I am! My flesh family thought I was going nuts and my dad even said I wasn’t his daughter anymore, etc. But nowadays they respect my choice and we have a nice and close relationship. It’s been eight years now and I am happier than ever and wouldn’t trade life in the Family for anything, absolutely A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G. The Lord gave me so much in return for forsaking my old life, the best being my precious children and my husband.
Ezra, what role did you play in your large family when you were growing up? Were you the small one that got picked on or the one that was always getting the other kids into trouble, or were you the golden child that was always telling on everyone? What is the best part of having so many brothers and sisters?
Ezra: I am third oldest, so suffered a little at the hand of my older bros, and likewise did a little of the same to my younger siblings, but I generally got along well with my family, and my brothers are to date still my best friends. My sisters are cool, too. I miss not living near them for the last ten yrs. I think forsaking my flesh family is the greatest sacrifice I’ve done for the Lord.
Well, first of all, how many kids do you have? And secondly, I’ve heard different things from different couples, but what was the biggest adjustment for you guys: having the first kid, the second kid, or the third etc. and why?
Gigi: We have 2 kids. João Gabriel (7) & Ana Beatriz (5). I really like being a mom. I didn’t feel I needed an adjustment because I just loved it! I was ready. The Lord gave me the anointing, the grace, the love. For me it was fun. I have fun with my kiddos. I can’t imagine life without them, for real. They added so much to our relationship. We enjoy being parents. It’s fun. It’s a total joy.
Ez: I agree.
How did you two meet and who fell for who first?
Gigi: We met at an open bible class in a bowling place at a mall here in Rio. I went to another city for a while and when I came back we saw each other again in another bible class, and with a help of a couple that are our friends (Tigo & Juju), we started dating. I think we fell in love at the same time.
Ez: I had just returned to Brazil from visiting my parents, and was wondering if I should stay here or go to another field. Also, I was 26 and hadn’t been in a serious relationship yet, and I was kinda wondering if there was someone for me in the Family. Many times I was tempted to give in to the come-ons from the system girls, down here, thinking they could ease the loneliness. Well, right after I came back, I hooked up with Gi, and that changed everything. I may have fallen for her first, but I’ll never admit it.
What is the craziest thing the Lord ever told you to do?
Gigi: Hum…I guess for me it was to drop everything and join the Family. It was crazy, radical and soooo good!
Ez: I think it was when the Lord showed us to visit her parents, and we ended up staying there for almost three months, during the Brazil punishment, while we were looking for a home. It was a tough experience living with non-Family members for that long, and I’m thankful the Lord gave me the grace.
If the Lord told you tomorrow “My children, leave Brazil!” what is the first country that comes to mind where you’d want to go serve the Lord?
Gigi: I don’t really have one country in particular in mind, although I know Ez would like to go to China (Oh My, I feel so not ready for China!). Anyways, I like Greece, Tahiti, Maldives, places like that, with gorgeous beaches. I guess people in these sunny, beautiful places have such a longing to know the Lord better, and I have such a longing to go tell them about the Lord’s love in a sail boat across those magnificent, perfect beaches. And we could have 12 foundation stones classes at the beach, and the Active Members would bring me fruits and coconut water in beautiful decorated trays…
The truth is I try to not think too much about it and let a personal preference intervene with His will, so I keep it real and simple. Although there are some countries that I think are exotic and I would like to be able to go there and interact with people, I try to just let it happen. He knows best and I want to be in His highest for My life, this is the perfect place to be, and it’s where I belong.
Ez: China. I wanna live someplace where people know very little about Jesus, so that they either like it or they don’t, or they learn to like it. –But I can’t stand witnessing to people who are familiar with Jesus and have lost respect or interest in Him. God; give me the patience!
Are the 30’s really easier then the 20’s like everyone in their 30’s tells you? How are they easier, if they are indeed easier?
Gigi: I think it is easier in a way since you are still young, can still do fun things without having to deal with young people looking at you as a total weirdo. But at the same time you do have more experience in life, maturity, you are more centered, and that’s nice. I guess you enjoy yourself and life better and deal with things easily, with a more mature perspective which makes things less complicated. You know it is not worthy going through the trouble of getting things too complicated anyway.
Ez: Each year has just gotten better for me.—Not easier. Some of the perks are:
being able to draw from my own experience,
realizing that bad things usually seem a lot less bad the next day,
understanding human nature and people a lot better,
suddenly remembering all the wise counsel from parents and teachers that I was too young and cocky to accept before,
and the sex is better, though I don’t really know why.
This last question is something I’ve developed just now that allows me to assess your personality types effortlessly. Name the first Bible verse that comes to mind, right now!
Gigi: “You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.” Simple, straight to the point, yet so, so powerful and true. Tell me if His Word is not the coolest, more revolutionary and radical thing ever? I love it!!! I love the Word!!! I love Jesus!!!
Ez: “If God be for us, who can be against us?” We’re gonna win, baby! WIN! Born winners. Now, how do you think that makes the Devil feel?
Ya know what? Lets just do this! January 13, 2008
Interview of the Month , 10 comments by Claire, Maria doehler, Anita, Shalimar Kelly, and Robin.So I’ve been hanging onto this Interview of the Month for about a month now because I’ve been trying to figure out a way to find out if el interviewee would even know that this blog existed and/or be interested in responding. Its been a nagging fear of mine since I started IOTM that I’m going to think up all these questions and get no response and for some reason it scared me - it may have something to do with my deeply rooted fear of rejection and it might even be related to the walls I’ve built up around my heart but I can’t really be sure. And while I sat here fearing, three months have gone by without an IOTM so tonight I said “Enough’s enough!” and I’m posting these questions anyway. I may not get a reply but we’ll never know either way unless I put myself out there; so this is me putting myself out there.
Written December 18, 2007
I have sat down, I have buckled down, and I have done it. I’ve started the first paragraph of IOTM, which should really count for something considering it’s Christmas. They say well begun is half done so we’ll see how that goes. Since I missed a month this interview is going to have to be extra special so no pressure, Robin (in the Uganda RadioActive Home) but you’re really going to have to deliver. Again, no pressure, but this has to be special. No pressure though…
I hope you read this and get a moment to answer, if not though, I’ll understand and assume you’re miles away from civilization delivering medical supplies and salvation to thousands of refugees, and chances are I probably wouldn’t be too far off my guess there. I guess this is as good a time to tell you as any that you are one of those people that make me damn proud to be in The Family. Interview guidelines found here.
Okay, first question. Describe what you and your Home have been up to during the month of December and spare no details.
The month got off to an exciting start with the annual Listeners’ Meeting. Simon gave an invitation on the radio for people to join us at the club downtown where we teach the 12FS and Bridge classes. Just like last year, we had about 120 come & it was a packed program with skits, stories, Bible quiz with prizes, a raffle with great prizes and the “Nativity” movie. Quite a few people came who we hadn’t yet met and many signed up for either the 12FS classes in the club on Wed Afternoon & evening, or for the on-line class. Others bought tools & we got all their e-mails to add to our 2000+ weekly feeding mailing list.
We had been invited to have our kids perform the puppet show they had put together at a few places. Shirley (12) and the kids had put together a great show on audio in the studio, with all the voices very clear, sound effects & all. Our puppets had been sent to us from a friend in the States—all were blacks—kids, grandparents, animals & all. They went first of all to the Goan community who are Catholics & they were so impressed by the show! We had a team the same day doing fundraising at the main hotel here then all came home for our 12FS Graduate’s dinner. It was good to sit with them one-one-one after the meal (& football game earlier) to talk about goals, where we’re headed the coming year, all the Lord has done the last year & all. Today Kath had a tool table all day which was good too.
A few days later, a team was going to minister to a lot of kids—over 100, when lo & behold, the big case of puppets was stolen from our roof rack while they were driving. The only thing they could figure was that it was taken from the roofrack by someone on a passing truck, as no-one definitely climbed up, the case is heavy & it couldn’t have been stolen. I was on freeday when they called me & let me know about them being stolen, so hopped on the Honda 250cc & traced their route to see if perhaps miraculously it’d fallen off & not been touched. Very unlikely since people are so desperate in this part of the world. I rode to the nearest police station to make a report, then down the road there was Simba FM so did an announcement on the radio, which they translated into Luganda. Hmm—Devil is really fighting our ministering because this show was extremely impactful! In fact, we are going to try to provision replacements as they are almost unheard of here & they’re a terrific way for our kids to minister as they all inherited a bit of the dramatic, have a zillion voices each like their dad & have a lot of fun ministering in this way. But I HATE THEFT!!!
Interview of the month September 27, 2007
Interview of the Month , 11 comments by Comment by "Mrs. Prince", Anita, Crystal, GeoMicPri, Anonymous, Miranda, Clare, Sophie, and Sonialee.I’ve devoted no prior time nor prayer to picking who’s next in this here venture, so since I’m three weeks late with this I quickly said to myself I said “Self, who is the most intimidating person you can think of?” and self answered back “Why, it’s the plucky bass man from Metanoya, of course!” Perfect. Kind sir, I’ll not lie, you intimidate me. It’s only because your aura emits a lot of intelligence (at least in photos it does) and you look like the kind of person that uses humor as a weapon (I swear that’s a compliment) In other words, I’d prefer to simply abase to the mention of your name in reverence rather than approach you thus but I’ve heard from a number of peeps that you’re perfectly lovely so I’m conquering my fears here, be proud of me - I sure am!
Nuff said, lets get started. Guidelines for interviewees found here.
(Plucky bass man speaking:) I, intimidating? And after all I do to manifest the fruits of the sprit…love, gentleness, meekness? Oh well, no one’s perfect. On the other hand, it could be the kindest thing you could have said. From henceforth, every time a hot woman fails to jump on me, I can chalk it up to my “intimidating disposition”. It’s the cross I must bear, & like most crosses, I feel entirely unworthy, for behind this strong, silent exterior beats a veritable heart of gold, as a number of peeps have, apparently, already told you.
Oh, & that would be “humour as a defense mechanism”. “Weapon” just sounds SO hostile.
Nuff said.
Shucks, I don’t even know your name. Your full Christian name and how you got it - were you named after anyone etc?
My name, as it appears on my passport is George Michael Prince & no, I was not named after anyone, per se. Michael Prince comes from Dan.12:1 which my parents claimed for me at birth. George is a tradition on my father’s side of the family, the firstborn has been named George for generations & my grandmother would not hear of my being an exception.
You’ve lived in how many countries and speak how many languages?
I’ve lived in England, France, Belguim, Sri Lanka & India. I would like to say that I can speak french but that might give you the impression that I can, in fact, speak it–which is not strictly true. But I can witness in french so that’s what counts for me. Besides English, I’m linguistically challenged.
What’s the biggest miracle you’ve ever witnessed?
I’m not really sure what makes one miracle bigger than another. Is the miraculous supply of a few thousand Euros more wonderful than the miracle of a new life? or going to a Family fellowship & seeing hundreds of brethren whose everyday existence is a small part of a larger miracle? As far as “Power & Protection” type stories, I cannot think of one that sticks out from the rest right now. But given our lifestyle, perhaps one will come tomorrow.
Don’t know if you’re the blog-hopping type, but if so, what is your biggest pet peeve about blogs?
Not really the blog-hopping type, no, & as such have not developed any REAL peeves. But I am often a little put off by those who seem to think they can just start typing & assume that their random yamblings should be of charming interest to any hapless victim lucky enough to stumble across them, as if the sun shines out of their arse. Waste of server space, have they no dignity? There’s a REASON people use to keep their diaries private. If it’s an inspiring testimony, fine. Or an epiphany or a funny story. Or “little Keith lost his first tooth” or what have you. But I’m talking about people with absolutely NOTHING to say just going around proving it. They SAY, “If you don’t like it, you don’t need to read it” & I’m there thinking “Sorry, how was I supposed to know what a dullard you were gonna turn out to be?” It’s just not good for one’s faith in his fellow man. (I know, it’s starting to sound like a peeve, isn’t it?)
What’s something you can do that would surprise most people? (e.g., double-jointed tricks, “I bake an awesome casserole”, mind-reading etc.)
You came close with the awesome casserole. I dabble in exibitionism. The secret is regular, private practice in a mirror.
Besides musical or spiritual related stuff, what is one subject that you’re so passionate about that you could talk about for hours?
Seeing the length of this post, I would have to say “myself”. Other than that, anything to do with sex will keep my undivided attention for long periods of time.
Name one movie that you would never, ever watch again.
I WOULD say “Dukes of Hazard” but that would give away that I’ve actually WATCHED the ridiculous shyte & I’m not ready to humiliate myself that way.
If you were given a coupon to either skip out on a Home Council meeting or a Home Review meeting, which would you skip?
I would use the coupon to skip the SC home review. (I’m curently a HS)
Favorite old MO Letter and why?
For now it’s “Sample not a Sermon” becuase it revolutionised my view on witnessing. It shows the importance of having a winning team home that ppl can “come & see” & the importance of our sample of love which is our greatest witness. He says all the churches are preaching “Jesus Saves” but WE’RE really living it & that’s what makes us different. This really convicts me for all the areas where I need to live it more & BE that sample of someone Jesus saved. When I clean the toilet, do I clean it like someone who’s been spared from the fires of hell? Does the outreach team think of that nice, clean toilet & thank God for our heavenly home, inspiring them to, in turn, share heaven with others? My witness is my sample is my life & it needs pervade every aspect of my life or I’m a fake.
Any final words? My blog is your blog for one night only.
Final words…yeah, but this is already the longest I’ve ever posted on a blog so I’ll stop here.
Interview of the month August 10, 2007
Interview of the Month , 8 comments by Tammy, MClay, Sonialee, Maria doehler, Niki, Theprincesses, and Woozers.I toyed with the idea of interviewing some intimidating, exotic person in lands across the sea but I lost my resolve around the middle of last month - maybe next month we’ll go there. Not that Chuck isn’t intimidating or exotic, mind you, she’s very much both of those in equal amounts. And yo, Chuck, do me a favor and get on the back-end of this blog and put your answers directly into the post - save me the trouble? And make sure you answer these questions when you’re relaxed and feeling very “yourself”. And don’t even think about changing anything I wrote. Hey, thanks bud!
So Chuck, what is it that you like so much about me? Really, I’m curious.
You think YOU’RE curious.
It might have something to do with the fact that you think I’m so cool (go figure)
Or hey, here’s a nice thought. I’ve been sitting here for 10 minutes trying to put what I like about you into words. That’s a good sign. That’s time for at LEAST a thousand reasons to screech through. Amen?
What is weighing heavily on your heart right now and what would make you forget it instantly? Be honest now.
Well Jules, besides my faulty inner wiring, the thing that weighs most heavily on my heart is the fact that no one gets my “this is the Victory that overcometh the world” jokes. I mean come on! Its funny! …..right? Jules?
Hey man.
I’d forget it if I was on a rollercoaster.
What is the most significant thing the Lord told you this week?
That I should F**k Him more. And harder. With more noise. He likes noise.
Now ask me how I feel about this.
This probably isn’t kosher on your blog huh?
Now ask me if I care. Ha! Take that!
What bible verse would you say best describes the state of your overall being right now?
How my being is:
Psalm 17:10
They are enclosed in their own fat.
How it SHOULD be:
Leviticus 4:19
And he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it upon the altar.
How it WILL be:
Psalm 92:14
They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;
And the outcome of all of this:
Matthew 19:22
But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful.
And the reason for all of this:
1 Samuel 1:18
So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad.
Hey that was cool.
Of all the many travesties Windows Vista has heaped upon you, which is the one that really, really stung? (I deliver this question with a small, deliberate snicker and hold close to my bosom my true and faithful Windows XP)
The only travesty I can see is your refusal to accept my superior electronic device.
If you could only take three GN’s with you on a year-long exile to a desert island, what would they be?
The one from XD on masturbation techniques as well two more from survival Sam. With my physical needs taken care of I could rely on prophecy for all my spiritual needs.
If a man wanted to seriously dazzle you with studly charm but he was only allowed to say one sentence to you, what should that sentence be?
I’m a pervy computer geek with a fetish for large and in-charge German women. *wink* (the wink is very important. It must be done with more finesse than the sentence)
Or just one that would answer to the following stimulating call from the holy book:
Judges 5:10
Speak, ye that ride on white asses
either way
If you could have an engineering genius invent a machine to make your work easier, what would the machine do?
Make the engineering genius marry me. That way, I could trade sexual favors for all the machines I could ever dream of my whole life long. (duh)
The perfect freeday is……? (And I know your first choice is “Why, a freeday spent with Jules of course!”, so give us your second choice for variety’s sake.)
One where STEPH TOLD ME WHERE HER TEQUILA BOTTLE IS. And then I turned into a super woman with flaming red hair who only stayed healthy and strong by eating cookies and peppermint. Then I would save the world while the man of my dreams fell for me because of my smashing personality.
Except first I need to go on a rollercoaster. This is important Jules. Take me to a rollercoaster.
Interview July 7, 2007
Interview of the Month , 7 comments by Sam, Luchi, and Angel.This post is coming to you at two in the a.m., thanks to the two previously (foolishly) consumed energy drinks now racing through my bloodstream. My days are spent on my bottom driving a truck. My nights are filled with X’s and D’s. I sit down to blog and all that comes to mind is the concepts of marital, inter-marital, and pre-martial associations and the controversy surrounding brainwashing. I am content and at peace with this stage in life’s journey, but I’m gonna be honest, I’m pretty boring right now. So……
Here’s something fun - for me, at least - and we’ll see how it pans out. I’m unsystematically conducting surprise interviews with people that interest me on this here blog which may or may not be featured on a weekly basis, I’ll have to see. They will be surprise in the sense that should I have a hankering to explore your psyche, you’ll not know about it until the questions show up here on 77ZI. I may know you well, some, or not at all. I reserve the right to pose whatever odd questions I feel like, depending on my mood. Should you find yourself thus questioned, you may freely ignore me, you may answer in cryptic one-liners, you may expound, you may be boring, you may be fascinating.
Should you feel like answering, do so in the comments and once you do, I’ll paste your answers into the main post for everyone’s reading pleasure. Should you answer someone else’s questions using their name I probably won’t be able to tell but Jesus can and He’s on my side so be afraid. This experiment may or may not work but they say nothing ventured, nothing gained. So, here goes. I’m kicking off this little venture with questions put to Florecita/Luchi of Live the Creed because, well, you seem like an interesting person.
LNF: She answered. It worked. Yay!
GBY! Is Luchi short for something?
Wow… I’m interesting! Awesome! My second name is Lucía, which was jokingly turned into Luchía… and then Luchi.
Do you speak fluent Spanish?
Yes, although I bear the shameful hint of a gringo accent. South America is very different to Mexico in that you rarely find foreign Family members who don’t speak Spanish. Everything is in Spanish, so you just have to learn.
Most surprising part of motherhood?
How messy nursing is!! It’s not as beautiful and serene as I expected it to be. It squirts everyone in the eye and the baby chokes, and you leave this fine spray of white dots wherever you nursed… it’s crazy! Maybe baby and I are exceptionally bad at it.
How much stock do you place in people’s sunsigns?
Um… I believe there’s an element of truth in them, but it’s too easy to be an amateur astrologer and use it to put people in a box. I don’t like putting people in a box. My husband actually studied astrology for a while so he rolls his eyes when people ignorantly prattle about it, so now I just roll my eyes too even though I have no idea what they’re saying wrong.
What are you most looking forward to about the offensive?
Wow. I don’t know that I even understand what it’s going to be! A new method? New tools? One disciple required per home per 6 months? I think what I look forward to is seeing people we brought in bring others in.
How much longer do you expect till the last seven years?
Oh boy. It’s one of those things I put in a little bundle of Faith. You think the world couldn’t get any worse, but it does. Looks to me like we’ve got at least another 10 years ahead of us… but the ET isn’t one of my strong subjects so I could be in for a surprise.
Name one blog you visit but have never commented on.
I think I eventually end up commenting everywhere. Oh wait, here’s one: http://sluglord.blogspot.com/ I’m just always at a loss for words there.
What’s the last thing you’ve memorized?
It was an easy one: ¨The Keys surround you with a bubble of My protection¨
Did you study the users manual on that suuuuweet DSLR of yours or do you just figure things out as you go?
Um… I did when I had time and a computer. Now I have neither or either one. But I do intend to read the last 75% of that pdf file sometime. Manuals are good. By the way, I just recently saw that you (I think it was you) won the Jayman award for best photographer. I hadn’t realized that all those photos were yours! There are some EXCELLENT photos there. Congratulations!
