As I was de-icing my hill and cars, here are some thoughts that ran through my mind:
1. I wonder what it would take to get radiant heat under the ground?
2. Easy way to wash the car.
3. All this ice would make one big smoothie!
4. How many cars has my neighbor pulled out from Hwy 31?
5. I guess that run will have to wait.
6. (while opening the mailbox door) "Pickles! No mail today!"

What Gets Measured Gets Changed
If you could make a visual of your personal routines, what would it look like?
Each year, Nicholas Feltron tracks his personal routine and creates a compelling visual report. For example, click here to see his 2009 report.
I would like to change my personal routine in 2010 but first I need to track my current habits and discover what needs to change.
(I plan to use the tool called Daytum to help track my daily routines.)
To start this journey, I need to find the routines that would be the most important to change.
So far, I have DINING OUT, DINING IN, DRINKS, BOOKS READ, PAGES READ, EXERCISE as possible categories.
What do you think are the important categories that I should track?

Lost Generation
This is a video submitted by a 20 year old for a contest. He won 2nd place.
The video is a palindrome: it can be read the same forward and backward.
What if the church could create something more creative than this for a worship experience???

Condition 1
Winter weather is crazy. Especially in Middle Tennessee
But then I saw this.

A Goal to Read 1563 Pages in 6 Months
If we can read all 7 books of the Harry Potter series;
If we can immerse ourselves in the hundreds of pages of the Twighlight saga;
If we have "down-time" and can check our email on our cell phones
Imagine how quickly we would be able to read 1563 pages of the action-adventure, mysterious and romantical saga of all time.
How?
By subscribing to this.
While I don't have an iPhone, I'm picking the plan that allows me to read all 1563 pages in 6 months.
Which plan did you pick?
Sushi etiquette
I love sushi! I love sushi so much that it is a tradition at our house to eat sushi on Christmas day (it's a way we live out the restaurant scene in the Christmas classis "A Christmas Story").
If you're wondering how to eat sushi, look at this...
