american music awards

I saw a little of the American Movie Awards last night and the performances stunk.
Just because someone is allegedly famous does not mean they should be allowed to think they can sing.

Lindsay Lohan and Hillary Duff are classic examples. They should be on the show, "But can they sing?" on VH1... and the answer would be... "no they can't." :) Any ways - it seems like image and celebrity clouds the brain and you start believing things about yourself that aren't necessarily true.

For example - if I was a celebrity - I may think I can blog and have important things to say. :) But... I don't.

So I wish you a happy Thanksgiving and I thank the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob for His lovingkindness and for the relationships we enjoy.

If you were a celebrity, what would you get talked into doing that you probably shouldn't be doing?

ECHAD!

If youth ministry can convince me to play bass guitar, keyboards, and SING! I wouldn't want to think what celebrity would try and do to me.

Being a celebrity isn't all that bad. For instance, when you're attending a Jewishy conference and some low-life church planter sits behind you, he will often blog about you when you get home and contribute even MORE to your celebrity status.

And I can sing too!

Big Dogg - funny and naughty...

Dibs - don't stop - you are the best kept secret in blogdom.

Wallace - lol - great point! You are the missing backstreet boy!

Rob B. - I'll tell Pete Y. to stop blogging about you. HE is the ultimate Rabbi.

If I was a celebrity I would get talked into doing ribbon cutting ceremonies for new smoothie places that didn't serve coffee... cuz I'd totally get behind that.

I would probably resort to Pimping. Wait ... you said what could I be talked into doing? Oh, that's just something I would do, but probably shouldn't. Oops.

Spent the day with my family and extended family at my folks. They live across the street from a park and a beach on Lake Michigan. We hung out under the blazing sun and I got burned. I went and picked up hot dogs and stuff for Sunday morning. It will be fitting to gather and worship God, the ultimate freedom giver, on the fourth of July. Have a great weekend! I'm golfing tomorrow with my dad and two brother in laws. I'm addicted to caffeine, sd

Working today on the garage sale for tomorrow. Tonight Vic and I are heading to Outback Steakhouse to use some gift certificates from Christmas! I can't believe it took so long to use them! HELP! :) Played golf last night and played poorly. It was my first time out and I was rusty, but I also kept thinking my bad knee would bust open during my swing... I still need to find time to finish my message... It has been a long week of trying to put it together. The well is a bit dry... Garage Sale boy, sd
