| Sky holds all our wishes
Dish ran away with the spoon
Chimney smoke ties the roofs to the sky
There is a hole overhead
That's only the moon
Will there ever be a tree
grown from the seeds I've sown
Life is a path lit only by the light of those I've loved
-Tom Waits

| How has everyone been? Yeah? Pretty good? I'm glad you are doing well. It's nice to see Xanga still floating. I am bummed that I missed the Toronto Fraternal but what can a guy do. I'd say it worked for the best since that weekend FOUR people at our meeting got baptized which was a sight to see. First and foremost, congratulations Eric, Joey, Tim and Hannah. Second and secondmost, Tim you are a great great man and a real leader in your own right. As few know, Tim made an individual decision to get baptized but then called Eric, Joey and talked to Hannah and asked if they would be interested in doing it all together. He easily could have done this individually by himself but he took it to the next level. I think that is truly sharing the love of Christ. It really warms my heart. Tim, I tip my hat to you. It was appropriate that the four baptisms occurred on Easter as the rest of the world celebrated a Christ they weren't familiar with, Tim, Hannah, Joey and Eric were showing the ultimate sign of appreciation and gratitude for Christ's sacrifice and efforts.
What is glory? Mike Livermore capturing an elusive rook? Matt Colby procuring a girlfriend? Or is the moment when Andrew Livermore takes his shirt off? Is it all three? What exactly makes something glorious? Perhaps, the question is...what isn't glorious? It will keep me up at night but I am sure the subprime mortgage crisis could be solved if glory could be packaged and sold on the open markets as an economic entity. It makes as much sense as reselling the risk associated with various mortgages. I would without question invest in the glory of all three of the aforementioend men.
My roommates surprise birthday party is today in one hour. I'm pretty excited. I think I can say it is a surprise party at this point since I hope he doesn't read my Xanga within the next hour but he is supposed to be on a date right now so I think we are safe. We tricked him rather well. We told him it was a party for a bunch of our friends who are born around this time. It worked well and I think he will be surprised. I will let you know how it goes.
