Disclaimer

If you do not know me (I mean, really know me) then there is something you need to understand before you read this blog: I value the truth above everything else... except a good laugh. A good laugh will almost always beat the truth as far as I’m concerned. Everything you read on this blog will be true, somewhat true, or something I made up in an effort to get a laugh. Sometimes I will go on a rant that I don’t really mean (or only kind of mean). Sometimes I will mean what I write only to completely change my mind a year, month, or day later. Such is life. By reading this blog you agree not to get offended by anything I write (or, at the very least, you agree not to tell me or anyone else that you are offended). It is worth noting that my employer does not endorse my blog (or even read it, to tell you the truth). The Wife also does not endorse my blog (though she will read it from time to time). I am not paid to write this... it’s just my way of giving back to the community. I have, and will, touch on a wide range of subjects and will give my opinion on these subjects. Again, most of what I say is for laughs but every now and then I will say what I really think and feel (see my views on Westboro Baptist Cult). How will you know when I’m serious and when I’m trying to get a laugh? You’ll know. And if you don’t know, well... maybe this isn’t the best thing for you to be reading. So, sit back, read and enjoy. Leave comments if you want and don’t be afraid to publicly follow me.

Don’t forget!!!!

Who? You (and me... and The Family)

What? The New Christmas Eve Christmas Eve Service

When? Tonight at 6:30pm

Where? Ashley Ridge Church, A United Methodist Community of People Worship at Ashley Ridge High School

Why? Word is there is going to be a showdown between Easter Jesus and Christmas Jesus. I could not make this stuff up.

Also, don’t forget the first 1,000 people through the doors will receive a free gift. So, if you’re still looking for one last gift to get that special someone in your life... this would be a great time to get it.

Speaking of last minute gift ideas... If you print your favorite post from I’m just sayin... I will be happy to sign it tonight (before or after the service).

We have had mostly positive feedback regarding the results of the I’m just sayin... Baby #3 Name Tournament. I say “mostly” because there are some conspiracy theorists out there who are a little upset their name(s) didn’t win. I would like to remind the gentleman from Our Life that he had ample opportunity to provide me with the quarter I needed to complete my set. This is a lesson I hope everyone remembers the next time I ask for something.

Winthrop Update: Winthrop plays at Kentucky today at 1:00pm.

Know Your Medal of Honor Recipients:

Private George Berg (US Army) received his Medal of Honor for his actions on July 1, 1898 at El Caney, Cuba. His citation reads:

Gallantly assisted in the rescue of the wounded from in front of the lines and while under heavy fire of the enemy.

Private Frederick Bergerndahl (US Army) received his Medal of Honor for his actions on December 8, 1874 at Staked Plains, Texas. His citation reads:

Gallantry in a long chase after Indians.

Major Randolph Carter Berkeley (US Marine Corps) received his Medal of Honor for his actions on April 21 and 22, 1914 in Mexico. His citation reads:

For distinguished conduct in battle, engagements of Vera Cruz, 21 and 22 April 1914. Maj. Berkeley was eminent and conspicuous in command of his battalion; was in the fighting of both days, and exhibited courage and skill in leading his men through action. His cool judgment and courage, and his skill in handling his men in encountering and overcoming the machinegun and rifle fire down Cinco de Mayo and parallel streets account for the small percentage of the losses of marines under his command.
