10 WAYS TO TELL IF A COMPUTER BELONGS TO A REDNECK

10. The monitor is up on blocks.

9. Outgoing faxes have tobacco stains on them.

8. The six front keys have rotted out.

7. The extra RAM ports have truck parts stored in them.

6. The numeric keypad only goes up to six.

5. The password is "Bubba"

4. There's a gun rack mounted on the CPU.

3. There's a Coke can sitting in the cup holder (CD-Rom Drive).

2. The keyboard is camouflaged.

And the number 1 way to tell a computer must belong to a redneck is that
the mouse is referred to as the "critter".

:slaphappy:slaphappy:slaphappy
These are pretty good. :)

I will admit that my cell phone cover is camouflage.

Have you ever been to a CFL game? I went to one in Calgary a year ago last fall.. it was some kind of final... Calgary Stampeders and the Saskatchewan whatevers... I don't care for football, probably because I have never taken the time to learn it and understand it... but I enjoyed the experience... it was a pretty huge stadium... an experience.

Evertime I have had an opportunity something else comes up...like a paint drying seminar, banjo class, or turtle races.

Seriously, no offense, but...there is better football played on high school campuses in Texas and California...I'm NOT kidding!

I was a Monkeyman fan, but now with his dissing of CFL Football, as a big time fan of the BC Lions, I guess I just can't be his fan anymore. :tease

The BC Lions office and training field were located just down the street from our church in Surrey. I missed very few home games this year. The NFL has a smaller field, yet it takes them four downs to move the football from one end to the other, whereas in the CFL they only need three downs to get the job done. :)

I have to admit that the NFL does have a higher level of play than the CFL. After all I am a NE Patriots fan! However, the CFL is still a very enjoyable sports event once you get into supporting a particular team.

BTW, you must be a Lindt Chocolate fan. They're not very sweet. I agree with you that chocolates and chocolate bars in Canada, as well as sweets in general are far too sweet.

Well I'm home with a sore throat and my toddler has a nasty cold. I didn't figure his Sunday school classmates would appreciate being sneezed and caughed all over.
Anyone else have it? It seems to be going around?

Hope church is great... it always seems to bust wide open when I'm not there. HAAA.

Nope.

Living in divine health down here in the south lands.

We trust the Lord and get a flu shot (And take vitamins, and wash our hands, and refuse to allow toddlers through the front door).

Well...it was a blow-out! Right after a song, "More of You Jesus/Word Of God Speak" a reverent sweet anointing was felt, a tongues given and interpreted, then an old fashioned blow out, including....get this...A PRAYER LINE, 'member those???? Except, this one was done by the young people as the older saints marched through!
There were MANY visitors, that was exciting, and a baptism too...yup, you missed it.
We had an anointed prayer meeting on Saturday, 136 in attendance, and that same anointing just spilled over into today.

It's trying to snow, but not having much success yet; kind-of-a snow and rain mixture.

It's on the edge of being uncomfortably warm (+1C) - a little too warm for much snow.

Two baptisms!

Awesome service and hey, that bass player ain't bad. ;) I love the bass. Pump it up! :thumbsup Looking forward to service this evening.

I'm enjoying the services at CCC so much!

  • Great pastor.
  • Great preaching.
  • Great teaching.
  • Great leadership staff.
  • Great music.
  • Great singing.
  • Great worship.
  • Great presence of God.
  • Great congregation.
  • Great facilities.
I love the fact that Pastor Woodward allows for the moving of the Holy Ghost where people can be ministered to. Doesn't mind a schedule being interrupted. That's great! :thumbsup

What's great is being able to go into a service where you have no responsibility and aren't carrying the burden for the whole thing ..... and just be able to worship, pray, sing, sit back and enjoy the preaching and teaching. What a great opportunity! I'm truly thankful God has given and allowed us this "pause" in our ministry. I believe it's divinely arranged and I plan to enjoy it as long as it lasts.

It's the first time in 34 years of ministry that we've had this kind of break. And I think it's interesting that we've settled temporarily into a church where a move of God is happening synonymously.

These kind of things don't just happen by "chance".

Ha! Well, I was brought up in church but didn't receive the Holy Ghost and spoke in tongues until I was 15 years old. That was a few years ago now. :thumbsup
