Uncommon

2009-04-03T10:55:00.000-07:00

I just finished "Uncommon"by Tony Dungy. It was a great read. There were a number of practical ways that he talked about in finding your path to significance. He stressed about the fact that success is uncommon, therefore not to be enjoyed by the common man. There are 7 parts to becoming uncommon...

Part 1: Develop Your Core
Part 2: Love your family
Part 3: Lift your friends and otheres
Part4: Your full potential
Part 5: Establish a mission that matters
Part 6: Choose influence over image
Part 7: Live your faith

I would suggest you put it up!

Are you serious?

This article is from Jonathan McKee Blog

I have to admit, I've never heard of these being stolen before, but I guess anything's possible!

CNN linked this story from KTLA News: Woman Sought for Stealing Breast Implants.

LOL.

This story writes itself.

HUNTINGTON BEACH -- Police are searching for a 30-year-old woman accused of stealing someone's identity and a pair of new breast implants.

Yvonne Pampellonne is accused of using a fake id to pay for liposuction and new breast implants valued at more than $12,000. According to Huntington Beach police, Pampellonne opened a line of credit in someone else's name in September 2008.

Huntington Beach police detective Larry Pitcher said Pampellone lied to her doctor and the staff at the Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery about her name and other personal identification. She used the credit to have the procedures done and never showed up for any follow-up appointments, Pitcher said.

So I'm curious. If they catch her... does she have to give them back?

What will the charge be? GTB?

The article gets better.

Employees at the plastic surgery center identified Pampellonne based on a photo line-up.

Photos of what?

(Sorry... I couldn't resist.)

Should we use this for a discussion starter about integrity? This might really keep the attention of junior high students. (I kid!) :)

Book Review: Sex, sushi & Salvation

2008-08-26T06:31:00.000-07:00

This book was well written. Christian George talks about a number of stories about him on the mission field with his father. I like it because its not just the typically “Sex Book” it always going back to salvation the most important part of life.
He talks about the sushi and how the new generation has changed. Sushi is now a huge part of the young generation. He says, “Culture craves raw reality.” We want a faith that is raw and fresh as sushi.
He talk about how it all comes back to Christ.

Book Review: Soul Craving

2008-08-11T06:40:00.000-07:00

One of reason that I love to travel is because I get to finish books that I started weeks ago! I just finish Soul Craving by Erwin McManus! It was a reminder that our soul craving the relationship with Christ! I loved how the book was written in short journal entries and stories! It talked about the souls cravings of love and intimacy! I think if we were all honest with ourselves would say that we want to experience intimacy. It also spent some time talking about destiny and meaning! It was wrapped up with a seek piece!
