I couldn’t sleep Saturday night and started to channel surf when all of a sudden a commercial for Songs 4 Worship Country came on.  At first I thought it was a Saturday Night Live skit, especially when they mentioned that Charlie Daniels sings “Awesome God.”  But no, it’s an actually CD.  Here’s the commercial I saw:

Happy Colors is a new flower draft. All kind of natural pigmentations are administered to the stalk by full control, through which the flower changes into a beautiful play of colors. Bright colors or soft pastel shades, with high contrast or playful, the possibilities are endless with Happy Colors.

This clip is from the beginning of Survivor China that aired last Thursday night.  Jeff Probst welcomes the new contestants at a Buddhist temple and tells them that the people of China would like to welcome them with a welcome ceremony.  He specifially states that even though the ceremony is in a Buddhist temple, it is not a worship ceremony.  Sometime during the ceremony the Christian radio host becomes emotional and leaves because she doesn’t want to bow down to any other God but the one of the Christian faith.

I think I recorded the clip with the volume low, so you make need to crank the volume up on the YouTube clip and your PC.

I think after watching the clip most people will fall into the following categories:

• People will be proud of her for standing up for her faith and leaving the ceremony.
• People will think that she should have went through with the welcome ceremony as awkward as it was but knowing that in her heart Jesus Christ is Lord of Lord and King of Kings.
• People will think she is an ultra-sensitive over-reactive Christian and think it is strange how she says she’s not a religous person but has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

This weekend I attended a conference so I could hear a couple of authors speak.  One of them happens to be a BON reader, and WifeGeeding and I attended one of her individual breakout sessions.  She immediately recognized us and introduced us to her 6′ 8″ husband.  His first words to me, “Wow, you’re taller in person.” 

I had to chucke because I thought it was a bit ironic that a 6′ 8″ person would tell a 5′ 9” (and a quarter, that’s an important quarter inch thank you) that he was taller than he thought.

During this breakout session of about a 100 or so people Margaret was nice enough to introduce me as a “celebrity” and briefly interviewed me about my silly little webpage.  That was the high-light of the weekend.

Here’s a review of her lateset book from the Dallas Morning News.
