I hate Earth Day. For some reason, the Hollywood better-than-yous feel the need to scatter across the country telling me how we’re destroying the planet, all the while living the other 364.2425 days in giant mansions, flying in private jets, and driving Hummers. Sure, as Christians, we should all be good stewards of the planet, …
Today marks the first day of the year Americans would actually start working for themselves (as opposed to the government) if our tax burden were paid up front. Three months and 22 days to pay off our “debt” to the government. Very nice. To celebrate, watch the video below. For more information, the Tax Foundation …
“Happy” Tax Day to you all. No, that’s not the “correct” definition of tax for today, though it’s not far off. Funny how close they are in practical terms. I hate April 15. Every year as I submit my taxes, I pray I haven’t messed something up that will cause an obscene amount of pain …

I love this song. A LEGO video could not be more appropriate, I think. 🙂
Another everybodyduck song, if you can imagine that. This one, “Get in the Plate,” is a pretty good treatment of the idea that we can go to church, throw some money in the plate, and be done with things: As the music starts to play We mechanically obey And scrape our scraps off in the …
Here is a great praise and worship song from ebd, Sustained: I’m satisfied by Your love so completely. How could I thirst for the praises of man? There’s nothing I need that You haven’t provided, And no one can offer me peace like You can Jesus Your love is enough Sufficient for me All I …
One of my favorite bands of all time is the band “everybodyduck.” They have (usually) fun, bouncy songs with masterful musician, and insightful, often witty, lyrics. Recently, I lucked up the web site of their lead singer, Darin McWaters. On this site, I found they’re giving away (sort of) their music (they have a PayPal …
Q: Why does Bob Stoops eat his chili on a plate? A: If it were in a bowl, he’d choke.
