You look so much like... So, I am really bad with who people look like. Someone told me that I look like a country music singer. Seeing that I don't and won't listen to country music... I won't really ever know. Now, there's a site that tells you what celebrity you look like. I still don't see it, but it is fun to see the results.

A Close call...


While driving on the frontage road on the South side of Black Road I had a close call today. This morning, actually all day it has been raining. As you can see from the picture there is a 90 degree turn on the frontage road. Many cars have driven off the road at this corner. I was able to see this first hand today. A car came up on the turn very fast and then hit the curb, it then jumped the curb practically doing a 180 degree turn in the air. The car landed on the curb after skidding across the grass. It then spun out on the street head on in the lane about 10 feet infront of me. I steered around the car into oncoming traffic, narrowly missing an accident. All in all it was a huge blessing being able to avoid the accident. I only wish two things would have been different: a) I had a camera with me to take pictures to post (b) I had a video camera rolling, it was like a scene out of a movie. This would have been great on YouTube.

After a LONG afternoon of Christmas shopping, it seems appropriate to see just how rich you are. Christmas seems so quickly forgotten of its real meaning and message; it quickly becomes more about selfishness. A couple days ago my daughter and I were out running some errands. While out, we had the opportunity to give back. This provided a perfect moment to discuss how blessed we are to be able to celebrate Christmas, not just the gifts. So instead of comparing, try checking out how rich you are...
