Return of the Mmmmm....

Long long ago in a Galaxy Far Far away... or maybe in Chicago...
Master Nano left China to combat evil and bring joy.
The Force was Strong with this young Nano and the Mmmm Wars began...
through its Power 1000 delightful songs were hidden in a pocket...


Then came the the Mmmmm Strikes Back...
A torrid tale about a young shiny Shuffle...
Like the Master Nano, Shuffle could bring the joyous tunes
But was much tough and smaller,
and through the mystical force was able to attach itself to objects of all sizes











Finally came the Return of the Mmmm....
Master Nano and Young Shuffle were out matched...
They could only play music
they were not strong enough in the force to handle the Evil Video Villians lurking in the far reaches of the Galaxy
Enter the New Master... Master Wii... A foreigner no doubt... but a strong friend. It was his incredible control of the force that made him strong, not raw power.
But Regardless his appearance in the middle of a sold out holiday season ensured that the Mmmm Wars would be one for all time!

Briarbrook Drive: Red Shaggie Carpet and a closet under the stairs

This is a picture of the house I lived in East Peoria until I was five. I guess they were they were getting ready to shingle the roof and had bundles of shingles on the roof when a foot of snow and ice came...

I loved that house.

We had red shag carpet in the basement and a closet under the stairs were I could hide if I wanted to... i think I remember having a black and white TV... I think we used to watch Jason of Star Command... We also used to ride out big wheels in the parking lot across the street... and Trent and I onece built a fort in the farmers field behind our house... but her got really mad because we knocked down a lot of Corn to do it... This is also down the house were I stabbed myself in the stomach on accident, burned myself with hot custard, broke my leg, fell out of a tree in the back yard and fell of the Neightbors 2nd story balcony.

All before I turned five.

I miss that house... bummer about the snow.

Oh, another interesting note is that Jason grew up about a about a quarter mile from here.

Music Check it out!!!

My friend Brandon Grissom (who may not actually have been informed that he is my friend) has recently released his worship cd... which I really like. (I realize the irony of this post considering I just posted... deal with it). If you go

HERE

you can check out his new CD and download two free tracks for your enjoyment.

Also, I have been taked recently with a Sarah Groves song... "Add to the Beaty." I am a hit or miss Groves fan... Sometimes her songs really are awesome to me... and some of them I think are ok. This is my favorite. It is really awesome because she wrote it after going on a tour of New Orleans and Africa and taking part in trying to make tough places more beautiful. You can check out the song, and a DVD documentary of her trips at her web site :

"Add To The Beauty" (by Sara Groves and Matt Bronlewee)

We come with beautiful secrets
We come with purposes written on our hearts, written on our souls
We come to every new morning
With possibilities only we can hold, that only we can hold

Redemption comes in strange place, small spaces
Calling out the best of who we are

And I want to add to the beauty
To tell a better story
I want to shine with the light
That's burning up inside

It comes in small inspirations
It brings redemption to life and work
To our lives and our work

It comes in loving community
It comes in helping a soul find it's worth

Redemption comes in strange places, small spaces
Calling out the best of who we are

And I want to add to the beauty
To tell a better story
I want to shine with the light
That's burning up inside

This is grace, an invitation to be beautiful
This is grace, an invitation

Redemption comes in strange places, small spaces
Calling out our best

And I want to add to the beauty
To tell a better story
I want to shine with the light
That's burning up inside
