Weekend
Apr 13th
Actually not the weekend, Monday.
Monday.
So on Monday, Rochelle and I went down to the Eaton Centre (Rochelle – a great friend from Atlanta, from NZ, who was here last week). It was pretty fun, we shopped very little and walked very much, but it was enjoyable. Then we hit up Niagara Falls with Maija, Bethany (Beth freshly back from China), Jon Long and Mel. It was a pretty sweet day.
Underdressed Latino Princess, can I get a witness??

“I once was a wee tyke on a small trike, Now I’m graduated from a trike to Excitebike!”
Lines such as these can only be featured in a Reeve Hunter & Sparrow Love Crew song. Hit this to see the video.
Freshwind comes to a close
Apr 13th
Well Freshwind finished on Saturday night. I’m late, I know. This was definitely my favourite FW yet. The worship bands were all really good, the speakers were all really good, and the “Zeo Party” kicked ass!
The Zeo party was a rave. My good friend Mark and new friend J who are Green Room played from 11:30ish to 1:30ish. It was a huge success with many people staying for the whole thing, and everyone having a good time. Mark and I spent time praying before he went up, that this would spark a new form of worship here in Canada for many More >
In other news…
Apr 8th
…Freshwind starts today!!
Excellent fun. Unfortunately my turntables have not yet arrived so we have had to rent some for this particular event, but it’s alright. I’m quite excited for this conference. They rented a big lighting rig with a huge black curtain to cover up our rather gaudy TV set backdrop – very cool.
So lots of awesome worship is coming up, good teaching hopefully, and certainly lots of stinky sweaty teenagers.
Great.
Straight from the tap
Apr 8th
How many glasses of water do they stay you’re supposed to drink a day? Like 6? or 8? Up until the age of 12 I never drank much water, and then for no apparent reason I started. Good habit I say.
So I might even call myself a connoisseur of waters. Personally, I think tap water raises the roof. When it comes to the bottle – Dasani. Hands down. But my friends, I must admit I have never been a huge fan of filtered water, Britter water, distilled water, whatever you want to call it.
So there. Go back to the tap More >
I love American cities
Apr 6th
Actually, I do like American cities. Something about them, I’m not sure what, but I have this sort of fun touristy (Main Street USA – Disneyland) sort of feel. Anyway… Go Cleveland!
Take the quiz: “Which American City Are You?”ClevelandYou are blue collar and Rock n Roll. You Work hard and party harder.
I like the sound of “Rock n Roll.” I also like the sound of Rock n Roll! Yeah!! Speaking of partying, I might have one at the end of the month – I’ll keep you posted.
Hellboy
Apr 6th
Biggest waste of 13.50 plus tax I’ve seen in a while.
But seriously, yeah, I didn’t enjoy it. Sad, because I was really looking forward to it, but what can you do. The un-needed occult stuff the whole time was the main thing that put me off, other than the fact that I was just plain bored. So much so, that I actually walked out. First movie I’ve actually walked out of.
So yeah, if you want to see it, go ahead, but I don’t recommend it. Ladykillers is better.
The Ladykillers
Apr 4th
Just got in from seeing The Ladykillers, staring Tom Hanks.
Oh man… that’s the first thing you can say, lol. It’s really bizarre… along the lines of Oh, Brother Where Art Thou bizarre, but it’s clever and heisty along the lines of Ocean’s Eleven clever and heisty. But at the end of the day, it’s its own film, staring a great actor, with a solid group of supporting actors, and is very funny. The language was a little stronger than I had anticipated, but it wasn’t a huge deal.
Tom Hanks is still and will always be, the bomb. More >
The Man of Steel
Apr 3rd
By far my favourite superhero has to be Superman. In the last year Batman has risen from near last to second place, or so. Thus, the comic Superman Batman is quite a read. For those in the know… Luthor recently got put out of office. Huge!
Anyway… if you follow this link, you’ll come to an online copy of Action Comics #1!
I love how Superman as a character is so much less complicated and confused. And so much less politically correct. He rips off nuff doors to get to truth, justice and the American Way. Superman today is sometimes a little More >
What to look for in a church
Apr 3rd
Here’s an amusing article found by the legendary Gaza himself. To be honest, I don’t know if I would really want my church packed with sexy ladies, I think things would just be too distracting.
But it would definitely be cool to have a little moment of understanding like that with a pastor. I’ve had moments like that when I’ve been inside a mascot costume (used to work for a baby clothing line) and I’ve meet another mascot. You both know, that you don’t know if the other one is a guy or a girl, but you know that you’re both More >
Mysterious Ways
Apr 2nd
They say God works in mysterious ways. He does.
As you may or may not know I’m producing and starring in a film this summer entitled Burwash Prison. Written and directed by Russell Montgomery, who is cool. So we had been planning to film this film at his Grandmother’s cottage, but unfortunately we couldn’t go ahead with that. So I talked to one of the big bosses at work (TACF) about shooting the film at our church campground. We would pay rental on the cottages, like anyone else would, and because the campground is for sale, no one else would be More >
