Ten On… - Week 16
Here’s my weekly list of ten. Anyone else doing this? Anyone else thinking of doing it? Just askin’.
1. GOOD GOOP?: Would you use this stuff on your computer keyboard? You might, says its maker, if you want a keyboard that’s free of dust and dirt…not to mention crumbs from all those meals you’ve eaten with your eyes glued to the screen.
2. COURIC CONSTANT: You know all those stories about Katie Couric insisting that she’s not leaving the CBS Evening News? She’s still insisting that she’s still not going.
3. TAKE A PEEK: Ever wonder what it’s like inside a Lego factory? Wonder no more.
4. SHOT THROUGH THE HEART: …and cutting edge medicine’s to blame. Harvard researchers are working on ways of injecting cells into the heart muscle as a replacement for heart surgery. Does this mean we can start eating those Outback cheese fries again?!?
5. TOO MUCH?: A pastor explains why he thinks Christians spend too much time studying the Bible.
6. TOO ARROGANT?: Then, the same pastor explains why excessive bible study produces arrogant Christians.
7. TRAGIC END: The man nicknamed the “Spam King” who escaped from federal prison won’t be sending out any more spams.
8. WALT’S NOT GOING TO LIKE THIS!: Part of the promotion of the Summer Olympics in Beijing, a city in China has erected some cartoon-like mice with holes in their giant ears. Odd.
9. THE NAME GAME: What should you expect if you’re a reporter who does investigative stories on the TSA, that organization designed to make flying safer? To find your name on their terror watch list, naturally.
10. YOUR FIRST TIME: Do you remember your first time? Get your minds out of the gutter, people! I mean your first time with Google! If you remember using the venerable search engine for the first time, including what you looked up that first time, you should go here and tell them all about it.

I would love some of that goop! The heart thing scares me, but I’m right on board with Pastor Brian (even though I’m struggling through the Bible in One Year program right now, finally, at age 44). And I think ALL cartoon mice should have holes somewhere in their heads!
