Wednesday Night Quote of the Week
Every Wednesday night I go to Applebee’s with a group of former students and friends. It’s a hysterical time filled with laughter and fun. Every time we come away with some jewel of wisdom or comment that puts us under the table with laughter. As they happen I will be posting them as the Wednesday Night Quote of the Week. They will remain uncredited simply because all present contribute to most of the comments worth posting.
Those usually present are myself, RobWill (when we’re lucky), Emma Jo, Rob Durst, Nick, and CoJack.
So without further explanation, the Wednesday Night Quote of the Week:
“If you could lose weight writing poetry I would rewrite the Illiad.”
This was only the second funniest thing said tonight, but the other one does not meet any level of appropriateness.
Peace.

Welcome to my Journal
Well, welcome to my blog. I’ve tried this once before and it didn’t work out too well. I’ve decided to give the whole journaling thing a try. I DO NOT promise that it will be well written or exciting. I don’t claim to have any original insight or answers to any cosmic questions. I’m just a guy, In love with my family, happy with my life, and trying to catch a glimpse of a God I do not fully understand.
My life had been difficult at times, but also it’s been good. I’m happy sometimes, sad sometimes, mad sometimes and ADD all of the time. If I make some big declarative statement it’s because I know what I like and not because I think my opinion is superior to others. If I come across as brash or arrogant, it’s because I grew up around a lot of people who are brash and arrogant and that was the only way to survive. Or, it’s because I am overcompensating for insecurities. Either way I hope to be completely honest in this place.
If you have found this journal on purpose or by accident, I hope you find something you enjoy. Please comment about any topic.
To start the blog off right, here are some life statements that will give you a glimpse of who I am.
I BELIEVE God is alive and real and that he knows us better than we think
I BELIEVE photography is the best way for me to enjoy his art
I BELIEVE relationships are more important than being right
I BELIEVE Jesus wouldn’t feel comfortable in most churches that carry his name
I BELIEVE Mexico is the place I am happiest
I BELIEVE the Mountains in Smoky Mountain National Park come in a close second
I BELIEVE this generation of teens are smarter and more “together” than my generation
I BELIEVE happiness cannot be found in more stuff (even though I’ve tried)
I BELIEVE Led Zeppelin is greatest band of all times
I BELIEVE that lately I listen to Dave Matthews Band more often that I listen to Zeppelin
I BELIEVE my son is a genius, and so is my wife
I BELIEVE my Dad is my best friend
Mostly I believe that Jesus was the greatest example on how to live. I wish more “Christians” would examine how he lived and not define themselves through politics, popularity, wealth, or any other artificial standard created by this world.
Peace, george
