Oh, Randy. This is gorgeous. I'd use exclamation points, but this is beyond any expression but hushed wonderment and deep joy.

Randy--I find myself coming back to this post just to look at it again and again. I do believe it's my favorite so far; it has a strange effect for me: calming but uplifting in a very alive kind of way--not sedative at all.
What's its name? What's its story?

We took the girls to see it yesterday afternoon and were pleasantly pleased. It was a big improvement over the last two that came out. Character development was existant, for starters. I suppose both girls will be digging out their expandable, light-up lightsabers and going at it before long.

Re: New Artwork - “ Trinity ”

Cindy — Thu, 13 Oct 2005 03:00:00 -0000

Before I even read your text, I studied the picture to see if each sphere represented a different member of the Trinity. I guessed right!! :D (And that's without even realizing there was a dove in the Holy Spirit's sphere...gorgeous, that, Randy.) The Father's sphere made me think of the Creation, with all it's variety and being so full of life and movement.

Abba, I know You're going with Randy, and You'll be keeping an eye on him, hemming him in behind and before. Give him safety, yes, and clarity in thought and speech. Mostly, though, I'm asking that Your grace would be so strong in him toward the people he meets and speaks to and of that it will be felt by them for what it is. Be there with him, in him, Father. Thank You.

On the way to the hospital today, Great Scott and I were discussing your new realm of creative input experimentation. He said to be sure I told you that he gives you five years before you're driving a monster truck with a houn' dawg.

I very much like the creativity interpretation of your new appreciation. I'd like to think that's why I occasionally play Scott's Bob Dylan CD's, even if he isn't home.

Re: Christmas Movies

LuCindy loves Nicholas Cage. "Raising Arizona" hooked me. "Family Man" was utterly endearing. "Matchstick Men" was a triumph of acting and a funny and sad and happy and bittersweet story. "National Treasure" was just plain fun (and had Sean Bean--Great Scott's actor of choice--in it, as well).
Haven't seen "Face Off", though.

Randy, you said: "Education is not indoctrination..."
Actually, I began working on a teaching degree at one point. The very FIRST thing drilled into us, in the very FIRST required class for the degree is that education is, indeed, indoctrination and that teachers should never forget that. "The state," we were told, "doesn't care how well educated students are so much as it is concerned that the schools produce citizens with goals and views in alignment with and conducive to the state's goals."
Straight from the horse's mouth.

So, are you counting Burke, too, or did he already have his own blog before he co-wrote on ETC? And do you get credit or partial credit for PDub's blog?

What a fun post. I don't know if I can bring myself to call you my "blogdaddy", though. That may be going a little too far for me. ;) BlogFather is fun, though, and I guess you're also a GrandBlogPa, counting Grumpy Teacher.

Re: A & E Meth: A County In Crisis

Cindy — Wed, 11 Jan 2006 02:00:00 -0000

I'll bet I can tell you which part of Missouri that county's in, too. Our area code--417--has become a new street name for the drug. Not long ago Missouri was the top meth-producing state in the nation. My girls have had classmates who've been put into the custody of their grandparents because their parents were cooking meth in the kitchen on the same stove they cooked dinner on--little children, Randy. I know of at least one girl (now grown, not an agemate of our girls) whose mother was pimping her out as a little girl, too, although I don't know if it was over meth or over other drugs. You can drive down backroads and find empty packages of OTC drugs used to cook meth scattered alongside.

Re: Bionic Writing

Yay, Randy!!!! Three quarters completed is nothing to sneeze at!

I did have to grin pretty widely while reading this. The reason I dubbed you my "evil" twin is that despite the fact of our sometimes eerie similarities, there are some things in which you are the COMPLETE inverse of myself. Evidently the writing/speaking thing is one of these. I can write forever and actually prefer it as a form of communication, but am a definite verbal blunderer with the spoken word. Loved your comment about conversation and barista at Starbucks! And when it comes to drafting and editing? I'm all for the editing and find the drafting more difficult. :)

Congrats on the "excellent" writing you're doing. (Doesn't surprise me at all.) Can't wait to read it.

Re: One of those days …

Cindy — Fri, 13 Jan 2006 21:01:23 -0000

Oh, Randy, I live in those days, sometimes for weeks or even months at a time. What I've found that helps the most is to get quiet inside and look for the beauty in what seems like cloud and darkness. It isn't the kind people most often think of, but finally I'm beginning to not just know with my head, but to grasp with my heart and deeper-knowing that "even the darkness is light to Him" and that since I'm His, it can be light for me, too, even if it isn't the kind of light I think I need or want.

I hope that doesn't sound too "slick" or glib. I mean it as grittily, pound-one's-head-against-the asphalt real as possible.

Re: Quotidian Light: Tornados

Cindy — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 02:00:00 -0000

Kurt--We heard on the news last night that Bentonville (or parts of it) was getting softball sized hail. Often when thunderstorms/tornados are in the area, I pray as I'm newswatching, for the people beneath them. Honestly, I don't remember if I prayed for you folks in Bentonville or not, but now that I know you're there, I will. :) So glad you and yours were unharmed.
Randy--If you find it comforting, go right ahead with your act of nature beration. It's a guy thing. I understand. :)
So...hurricanes are bigger and longer and add flood damage, but also give you time to know they're coming and get out of the way. Tornados can literally get you while you sleep and are less predictable, but are shorter in duration (although a destroyed house is still a destroyed house) and have a smaller path of destruction.
I'll still take the tornados. :)

Re: Quotidian Light: Tornados

Cindy — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 11:03:57 -0000

No, not our house. THAT house is one that had just been rebuilt after being flattened by the May 4, 2003 series of tornados went through. This round followed the same path, and the poor guy who owned that house said he won't be rebuilding in that area again. We watched an interview with him while waiting for that same storm to get to us last night. Ah, the wonders of modern technology. :)

Thank you VERY much for the prayers, Randy. If you want to keep them going lightly throughout the spring, we won't be unappreciative. Tornado weather is just starting here in the Ozarks and such storms will likely not be uncommon for the next two months or so. You get hurricanes. We get tornados. As bad as last night was, I think I'll still take the tornados. :)

Thank you for this, Randy. Last night was long, and we didn't make it to church this morning as a result (Scott blogged it at Grumpy Teacher). This post, though, was more uplifting and quieting than church has been for a long, long time, for me, and I appreciate the gift of it very much.

I suspect this is mostly a humourous, gimicky sort of thing. The picture of the bed he's "complaining" about, for one thing, is staged. The items are laid out in a regular, patterned, manner, there are no baby wipes on the bed, and the diapers are suspiciously pristine.

Ok. One of the coolest.
Easter morning I woke up hearing hymns through the bedroom window from Mt. Zion church just up the hill and across the highway. I got up and dressed and out for a walk before Scott and the girls woke up, and as I walked east, straight into the rising sun, I could hear every word of "Victory in Jesus" come floating across the half mile of greening field and budding trees between Mt. Zion and my ears.
Now, just so you know, not only was this special because it was Easter Sunday, but also because Mt. Zion is the church my grandparents began attending when they were first married and where my grandmother continues attending now. I know most of the people in the choir and could even pick out the choir director's voice (he's also a neighbor). AND..."Victory in Jesus" is the song our family sang standing at the grave of my grandfather six years ago...up at Mt. Zion.
Easter is not the Christian holiday that hits home with me the most, but this Easter was a gift. :)

"...if someone told her that he was gay, you wouldn't state that they are "allegedly" gay. You would think that if they say that about themselves, they would know."
This point startled me for a couple of reasons: 1). It was so obvious; and 2). I realized that I myself had thought nothing of her use of "allegedly" other than acceptance and even expectation that a reporter would use it in such an interview.
Well thought reply, Randy.

Alright, Randy. It's up at Quotidian Light, but I'll also post them here, just for fun. :)

1. Dirt. (For repotting the orchids.)

2. Socks with individual toes.

3. Benadryl for when the children are too crazy.

4. Alcohol for when the husband is too crazy.

5. Morrowind, for when one simply MUST live life as a lizard in a dress robe.

6. Children who want cooking utensils and badgers for Christmas.

7. Wormer.

8. Small dead animal carcasses on the front porch. (As opposed to in the house.)

9. The word "no." As in, "No, we're not going anywhere for Thanksgiving."

10. Individual cups in bras. (Great Scott seconds this one enthusiastically.)

Re: The Discovery

This post amused me greatly, Randy. Sometimes we are so alike, and sometimes we are SOOOOO very different; it makes me laugh. I pull my dryer out from the wall to clean under it occasionally, usually in the fall or spring when the mice start coming in and the utility room begins to take on a certain "air" if it isn't done and poison or traps set. :p

I can't say that dead animals phase me much, though, and certainly not dried up husks of animals. Our cats leave us gifts on the porch daily. Half-eaten gifts. They leave us the "green wobbly bits" as the girls call them, and we have to sweep those and the bloody fur off the step almost every morning. (One Easter we opened the door to find a full-grown rabbit waiting for us, which amused us all greatly and gave the girls opportunity to tell their classmates that our cats killed the Easter bunny.) Dried critter husks are much tidier to clean up than oozy ones. :)

You didn't want to know any of this, did you?

What a great dryer salesman! Blessings on his head, for sure, and blessings on your now carcass-free home!

Bad things happen when blood sugar gets low. Just sayin'. I love how you were able to calm down and be kind and friendly with the man and his wife. So many people would have treated them horribly throughout the whole mess. Christ said that out of his heart a man speaks. So maybe you had a little bit of crud in there, but it must have been just a little bit floating on the top, since what came out quickly afterward was an apology and congeniality.

(A silly aside for you... Great Scott had to rent a car to take three of his journalism students to a convention. He got hit at the airport BY AN EMPLOYEE OF THE RENTAL AGENCY. To top it off, immediately after impact, Scott's three students piled out of their car snapping pictures of everything! :) Moral: Always keep a spare journalism student with a camera in your car, kinda like a trunk monkey. ;) )

A link to the article online: http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200901/end-of-wh...

I thought it was pretty good. Teaching this year has given me a whole new perspective on "whiteness" as expressed in the rural midwest--or at least in the rural southwest of Missouri. It isn't uncommon for me to want very badly to use a phrase in class that one of my husbands colleagues supposedly uses: "Do you want to DIE this ignorant?!?" (Not as a threat, of course, but simply uttered in disbelief.) I'll admit, it gives me a sense of satisfaction that eventually all the races are going to be more mixed. Maybe it will help take us a few steps closer to seeing people as PEOPLE before we mentally poke them into little boxes of preconception and begin complaining about them.
