creative element potential problems
Written by Aron Strong on July 31, 2008 – 4:32 pm -When programing an element for your worship or youth service, there are a couple things you should think through first. Potential technical problems should be near the top.
Thanks Dana for sending this my way.
By the way, if anyone knows a WordpressMU plugin that would make this thing show up on my page, let me know. I’ve tried a few, but no go so far.

prequal to greatest TV show below
Written by Aron Strong on July 25, 2008 – 4:08 pm -If you know me well, you’ll know that I think the new Battlestar Galactica is the greatest show on TV right now. The fact that it is ending is only softened by the knowledge they chose story over dollars, and opted not to string it out simply to make money.
With the impending end of BSG, we may now take comfort the producers got the greenlight to create a prequal about Caprica. The trailer is below.
Wonder about the girl who’s a perfect copy? SPOILER: she’s a cylon. Betcha didn’t see that coming! Ok, maybe you did. Anyway, enjoy!

Influence set preview
Written by Aron Strong on July 16, 2008 – 5:48 pm -Here’s a little preview for our set this coming weekend.
I’m leaving town for some family stuff I’ll fill you in later about, so won’t be here this weekend to take a pic of the finished product (complete with haze, lighting and awesome worship people). You’ll have to wait a little for that. Maybe Paul Haugen will post a pic. You can bug him on his blog, The Open Door (link to the right).
Enjoy.

Today’s official weigh in: 221
Last Weeks official weigh in: 220

So I know the solution. It’s getting to it that’s the problem. It’s one simple word: excersize. The week I lost more than one pound? At the gym. Since then? Not once. There’s a ton of interruptions and another big one to occur next week I’ll share shortly. Still, eating well helps you stay the same weight. Excersize takes it off.
Now… can I get my arse to the gym? That’s the real questions. Stay tuned to find out.

Weight Loss Challenge: week 4

Looks like I’m the turtle, not the hare in this race. But I am learning some important things about myself through this process.
Sunday after church, we packed the family up and drove to my folks house in Vacaville. I discovered if it feels like vacation, then I should be able to eat like it’s vacation. What’s the deal? As long as my routine is set and structured I can stay on plan, but as soon as there’s schedule or routine an interruption, then I’m justified in interrupting my discipline too? I don’t get me.
I need to figure this thing out. Suggestions?
Oh, and we had an absolutely fantastic time at the folks house. Saw my siblings and little cousins. I love my family. They’re awesome.
