random thought

I was hanging out at Barnes & Nobels with one of my friends earlier this evening and we were looking at the Bible section, and something struck me.

Quick, how many Bibles do you have in your house/apartment/dorm room?

How many study Bibles, ones with leather covers, full color maps, ho many different translations? 

How many people do you know will loan you a Bible, or how many churches can you go to and  possibly receive one at no charge?

Ok, now how much of the Bible have you read through?

I'm going to leave it there for tonight, I'm not trying to accuse anybody, I'm not trying to say I'm better than anyone. Remember to be thankful you have full access to God's word when there are so many out there who don't.

The Things of Legend

"Heroes get remembered but legends never die"

yes, this is another baseball post. I don't apologize.
Baseball is a sport steeped in legend Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, Jackie Robinson, Nolan Ryan, The '04 Boston Red Sox. but a new feat is in the works, the Texas Rangers have for the first time in 11 years went to the playoffs and for the second time in Ranger history won a playoff game.  and not just won but dominated with a final score of 5-1.

the outlook for the post season looks good and if they take the pennant it'll be worth telling my grandchildren about, if they make the world series i'm gonna go batcrap insane...

and in case you haven't noticed this is October.

I sniff books

My Name is SuperNerd64, and I Sniff Books...whew... that was tough, you know that smell of a new book? freshly bound and unread? its intoxicating, i can't get enough of it, and its gotten pretty bad...now any book will do...new, old, classic, modern, they all have that smell, and i can't get enough of it...


if you're like me please go to isniffbooks.tumblr.com we won't help you quit sniffing books (after all why keep people away from good literature) but hopefully we'll provide entertainment when you are bored...


in other news my classes are starting to catch up to me...i'm moving back to saturdays and random spots of free time....

Later,
SuperNerd64

P.S. if you are interested in my digital art class blog, its supernerd64.wordpress.com

They're in!

Today is a very significant day for Rangers fans...They did it! We're in the Pennant race with the Twins, Yankees, and Rays ( unless the Sox can get ahead five and a half games in these last couple weeks [hey, I've seen stranger in baseball]).

So I am totally stoked for October now! and despite what my mom thinks the television will be tuned to baseball when there is a game on.  If she starts rooting for the Yankees...well, lets save that for another blogpost...

its fall, its post season, ITS TIME!

Guest Post! College football

 Ok so here's the deal...I post every Wednesday however this week I've been wayy to busy to write anything...so i'm skirting the post rule by having a guest post...my good friend Toothpic volunteered to do one so here it is enjoy!

Unless you live under a rock you probably know that most of America is obsessed with football. Note I didn't say American males, there are tons of females obsessed with football too. I walked down the hall in my dorm this Sunday and three girls were tuned into a football game. Three different girls, in their own rooms all watching the same game. At least dudes are smart and have parties with food to watch football. The TV in the lobby is almost always tuned to football with a couple of guys (or girls) sitting around it. I grew up with one side of my family LOVING football. One of my cousins even said 'Football is life'. I mean, don't they ever get tired of sitting in front of a screen, or on a bleacher yelling at guys who do the same thing week after week? Oh wait it gets better. This weekend is THE game of the week between UT and Texas Tech (igoraiders!). The hardcore fans set up tents outside of the stadium on Sunday night waiting for the game this weekend. They even have a sign saying 'Raiderville, Population: 825'. Yes that is how many hardcore fans are out there. They would have set up their tents earlier but they weren't allowed to until Sunday night. If that just isn't way too obsessed, you are over the deep end than I don't know what is. I understand playing football, and throwing a football around. I get that, my football career was shortlived after I had my major football accident. We were only playing touch football so who knows what would have happened if we were playing tackle football. I guess it just goes with our young people's obsession with converse, randomness, tangents, the f word, complaining about school, a host of other things I could make a whole blogpost complaining about. But until then I am spending my time avoiding being dragged to the Texas Tech football games. Oh crap, here they come. *ducks and hides*
