Andy Rooney rebuffs street evangelist at Super Bowl

I’m note what I find more interesting about this article from the Baptist Press:

  • That Andy Rooney states he’s an atheist or
  • The name of the street evangelist

As thousands of people thronged Phoenix for the Super Bowl, a small contingent of Christians spread out across the metropolitan area to share their faith in Christ. One of them had a chance to talk with Andy Rooney, the commentator whose curmudgeonly complaints wrap up the weekly “60 Minutes” program on CBS.

“I was standing on a corner and turned around and there was this little old man walking across the street,” said Tony Didlo, a member of Grace Church, a Southern Baptist congregation in Des Moines, Iowa. “I knew right away it was Andy Rooney.”

Didlo held out a Gospel tract and asked Rooney if he had received one yet.

“Yeah, I’ve got one of those,” Rooney replied, according to Didlo’s account of the Jan. 31 encounter.

“Sir, do you believe in God?” Didlo asked.

“No, I’m an atheist,” Rooney said. “I think it’s sad you people believe in that stuff.”

My First Ever Asthma Attack

I never had asthma, so when I couldn’t take in a full breath I started to freak out.  This all happened about two in the morning and WifeGeeding sensing a good blogging opportunity decided to snap this pic with her camera phone.

I was told that even though I have never had a case of asthma in the past, as we age our body changes and we can develop asthma as well as allergies to things we never had a reaction to before.  Wow, talk about something I’ve taken for granted for the past 32 years.  Now I have two inhalers.  One to take to help me for the long term, and one to take when I start to feel really bad.  Right now I’m breathing better, but I still don’t quite feel I’m getting a full breath no matter how much I breath in.  Hopefully I won’t have to be dependent on an inhaler for much longer.
