stuff, links, & thanks

haven't posted for a week...
...was away for a few days with some Quebec church leaders, with presentations and discussions mostly in French. It becomes apparent that you really don't understand a language - not necessarily b/c you can't understand the words being spoken, but even more so when you don't have the mental capcity to follow along.
My friends know how poor my french is, and so would the person at the counter of KFC.
...to my shame I oftne tuned out to do other work that was on my mind...

...the apparent TOMB of Jesus is now in the news... here's a 1st response from Ben Witherington (ht: Jesus Creed)
...you got to love the way they prepare the announcement, books, and TV/movie debuts all at the same time

THANKFUL FOR...
...for kids who are happy to see me when I arrive home after being away for a few days
...for the fulfillment that comes from making someone aware of the gospel for the 1st time
...for a wife that models love and servanthood for me and my family in ways to many to count
...for a good episode of HEROES to help you tune out for an hour (it was really good last night!!)

I didn't actually watch it, but a friend of mine told me that Jay Leno's response to all this hype surrounding "The Tomb" was sort of like this; "They can't even find out who the father of Anna Nicole's baby is and they think they found Jesus' 2000 year old remains through dried up DNA?????"

that's funny, I like it...
if my body was buried tomorrow, and found in 300 years, how could they match my DNA - unless they had a DNA sample of mine - which really is only possible in our day and age not back then (eg. I've given blood, had blood tests, so it makes it possible)
maybe Jesus donated at the Red Cross!

At the risk of sounding corny .... He did more than donate at the red cross!!!!
