I’m not into exercising. Yesterday my wife said, “Let’s walk around the block.” I said, “Why? We’re already here.”

    2) He needs to work on his free throws.
    3) It’s too bad he and Kobe couldn’t get along better.

What if, instead of God sending three wise men at our Savior’s birth, He had sent three wise women?

1. They would have stopped to ask for directions.
2. They would have been on time.
3. They would have prepared the stable.
4. They would have helped deliver the baby.
5. They would have made a casserole.
6. And they would have brought diapers as a gift rather than perfume.

On the way out of the nursing home where I preach twice a month, one of the elderly ladies asked me, “Are you a pastor or a normal person?” Sometimes I wonder that myself!

Check out the latest posts at the dullest blog in the world:

• Tidying some pencils (March 16, 2006)
  Some pencils were scattered around on my desk. I picked them up one by one. I placed the pencils in the drawer which I use to store pencils.
• Opening a cupboard door (October 17, 2005)
  There was a cupboard in the corner of the room. I reached out my hand and gripped the door handle. I pulled the door towards me, thereby opening the cupboard.
• Standing in the middle of the room (April 21, 2005)
  I was standing at a central point in the room. The walls were all at approximately the same distance from me. I continued to stand there for a few moments.
• Scratching my knee (September 10, 2004)
  My knee had a slight itch. I reached out my hand and scratched the knee in question. The itch was relieved and I was able to continue with my activities.
• Moving an item from one place to another (July 21, 2004)
  There was an object occupying a space on my table. Using my hand I picked up the item from its place. Having considered my options for a moment I placed the object on a different area of the table.

This reminds me of a hilarious interactive online “ballot” during the 2000 Bush/Gore election. It was basically a flash animation with a picture of Bush on the right and a picture of Gore on the left. The instructions said to click on the one you wanted for president. If you clicked on Gore’s face, you got Gore. But if you moused over Bush’s face to click on him, the faces would switch places. So then you would mouse over to Bush on the left to click on him, but the faces would shift again. If you tried too many times, both faces turned into Al Gore. There was no possible way to vote for Bush.

I have looked for it online since, but have never been able to find it again. Does anyone remember this or know where to find it online today?

By the way, I was living in Fort Lauderdale, FL in 2000, home of the hanging chads and butterfly ballots. There were a lot of funny things posted online at that time about the election. There must be a collection of it all online somewhere. Again, does anyone know where?
