Fortuitous Bouncing

The day I graduated from McNary High School (in Keizer, OR) it was 96. The day my sister graduated from high school it rained half the day and was 56. That sums up Oregon weather. Love or hate it, at least it is never the same.

  1. The biggest news story of the past week outside of Obama is the passing of legislation in California for legal gay marriage. Here are some great articles: Informative and opinionated on the topic of it being a ballot issue in November.
  2. Why we don’t like grace by Jonathan Brink. Awesome post.
  3. This guy took on my metro worship pastor quiz. He scored higher than me!!!! I told you I wasn’t that bad.
  4. How to feel free with your finances and bless others with it as well. I always love what Mrs. Jackson has to say. Thanks Anne.
  5. An inside look of Burma. Another great post from Eugene.
  6. US Foreign Policy versus The Great Commission. Great post by Tony Campolo. Very poignant too.
  7. A blog series was started by a reader of this blog called Project Homeless. Very cool.
  8. Obama talks about how faith and politics intersects for him.

If you had one night in downtown Chicago…what would you do?

    T: I grew up outside of Chicago… Take in Second City/Uno’s Pizza…Navy Pier in all its glory…or, if you’re mobile, you must drive LSD. At night! The weather should be good–enjoy!

  2. Darin says:

    Thanks for the links. Always good. Looking forward to your thoughts on the conference.

    Karen- What is LSD?

  4. Definitely see a Cubs game. Second city at night. See downtown and I think it’s River St for dinner. Or the bars across from the Wrigley.

    when taking a team of people who have never been I’d walk Millenium Park, check out the bean, eat something Chicago only- ride the ferris wheel at the Navy pier as the sun sets on the city and sit at the end of the pier as lighting flashes.

    if it’s me and it’s Thursday night, I’d go to a live taping of Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me.

  6. Tyler says:

    glad i asked the question. i guess i have my night on the town figured out already. can’t wait.

  7. Janet Fraser says:

    i’m open to second city if someone wants to look in to tix…
    and hey, since you don’t twitter… here’s a Houston update- we’re going to Olsteen’s church tomorrow a.m. :-) for real!
