This one's for the Techno Weenies

Alright, it's time that Fiji gets a little something off his chest. I recently joined the vast portion of young (and not so young, sorry Dan) Americans that are proud owners of their own little slice of world wide web space to moan complain and other wise vent their every complaint and mis-hap. Today I need to vent, because the technological masterminds behind this "blogger" organization are a twisted bunch of techno weenies. you see, when i opened this blog, I wanted to post a picture of yours truley on the front. Like a beacon of light guiding you home. But when I tried to accomplish this not-so-lofty goal, i was tragically shunned. You see, the techno weenies made the photo loading process entirely too complex! What's a URL and why is my server uncompatible? I know why. It wasn't to save programming effort, on no. Let's work through this together. I'm from Goshen, OH. Home to a few thousand people and a couple hundred teeth. And people in Goshen aren't exactly computer genius's. Most of our techno prowess stops at speak and spell. So what does this mean? Well, as a general rule as computer smarts go down, so do apperances. Case in point, I spent some time managing both Goshen and Mason Domino's. While Mason's population is mostly employed by business with computer skills, Goshenites are highly skilled with a mop bucket and other such janitorial tools. And guess which town has the better "scenery". Exactly. the techno weenies have rigged blog spot so that no homely, toothless rednecks can post pictures of themselves polishing the lug nuts of their Camaro outside of their new trailor. It's all a giant ploy to protect the dignity of their precious website! Well you know what I say to that! One day when I'm rich and famous I'll start my own website and I'll say send me your slack-jawed Jethro's, send me that 300 lb lady that cruises krogers in a tube top, send me the toothless wonders of Blanchester! Free at last, free at last, praise God almighty, we are free at last!

New Age Psalms

Howdy, I wrote this the other day in light of some recent struggles I've been going through, always remember,EVERYONE goes through trials. But an authentic Christian knows to lay his burden on God to get through it, I hope you will all do the same.

How long O' Lord
How long will my mind seek to overcome and destroy
the truth's held in my heart?
How long will my mistakes of yesterday
continue to be my fears for tomorrow.
My mind cries out,
"Why do you abandon your humble servant?
Why will you not give aid to your fallen soldier?"
But I know in my heart that these things not true
And that the petty things of this world
are of no consequence to you
I need only endure in faith to feel the totality of your love
But I fear my heart lacks the strength to defeat my doubtful mind.
Help me Father.
I can promise you only my life.
But still my soul cries out to you,
"How long O' Lord"
