U2 3D


My buddy Bob called yesterday and said he had an extra ticket to see U2 3D. MAN OH MAN! If you haven't seen this movie - go see it, especially if you're a U2 fan. If you're not, go see it because the entire movie is in 3D.

It's a stadium concert of their Vertigo tour in South America. Between the graphics on the mega-screen behind them, to the on-screen graphics, to the sense that you're right there with them . . .it's all so incredible. I'm probably going again. I would love for Cindy to see it.

I have to say there's something about seeing Bono right in front of you or Adam Clayton sticking the neck of his bass guitar right in your face.

The editing was incredible. Not only do you see the concert from different angles from the audience, but you also get close ups, shots from above, behind, from the side, and blended shots. All of them in 3D.

When we went it we were given our 3D glasses - not the paper, red & blue kind I've used in the past, but they were black, horned-rimmed, Roy Orbison style glasses. OK, so I thought they were kinda cool. So, if you don't like the movie you do go home with some cool glasses.

Just take it from me - go see the movie!

Camp is Good!

I'm home from a week at a student camp - Camp Chaparral . I was there teaching students how God created them for a place of ministry and encouraging them to involved - somehow. . .somewhere. I was also the guest of Pam & Steve Sparks. They are wonderful friends from my Lufkin days. Steve is the Assistant Director of the camp. Better give a shout out to the staff - Hey Mike, David, Heather, Doug, Tim, Nate, Govani (spelling?) - thanks for a great week. These guys work really, really hard to make your camp stay the greatest. And it was. But I'm exhausted! I'm beginning to wonder if I'm getting too old for this kind of thing? The worship was great - thanks to the brown band ! Hey Michell, Gabi, Rooster, Noah, and #14. They'll get it. Jon Randles really challenged us with his messages - 7 Marks of a Disciple . Need a speaker that speaks truth with wisdom? Get Randles. College or students. He's good. But the late nights and early mornings - WHEW!!

Question for You

I was listening to one of the local radio stations - kwyq, The Way FM, this morning on the way to the office. They were asking the question, "If you could live in a totally Christian community would you?" Responses varied. I would be interested in knowing what you think. So. . .I pose the question to you. . . If you could live in a totally Christian community would you? Why or why not? I can't wait to read your responses. Mike

Favorite Cereals

As I was scarfing down a bowl of Total I was thinking about my favorite cereals. Cereal has always been a part of our family - it didn't matter whether it was grabbing a bowl before school and sitting with my Grandpa as he at a bowl of Raisin Bran after church on Sunday nights. Growing up I had my faves. I would still eat them, but me and a lot of sugar in the morning is no bueno. As many of you can attest, it's not like I need more sugar! So I also have favorites now. Here's my list of favorite cereals: Then Cap'n Crunch - the original and all-time favorite, and breakfast with the Cap'n - how do you beat that? Frosted Flakes - don't get soggy in milk Peanut Butter Crunch - Cap'n Crunch and peanut butter, what's not to like? Wheat Chex - add a banana, mmmm. . .mmmmm. . .good! Now Total - good for you and doesn't get soggy too quickly Kellogg's Low Fat Granola without Raisins - good all around cereal Wheat Chex - still like me a bowl o
