The Geeding Clan are off to NYC!  As I did with my trip to Las Vegas, I plan on doing a lot of mobile blogging with my cell phone, so posts will be intermittent this weekend. 

In the mean time, I noticed there are some new readers to BON, so here’s a little ‘Best Of – Get To Know Geeding A Little Better’ list.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NFL has nixed a church’s plans to use a wall projector to show the Colts-Bears Super Bowl game, saying it would violate copyright laws.

NFL officials spotted a promotion of Fall Creek Baptist Church’s “Super Bowl Bash” on the church Web site last week and overnighted a letter to the pastor demanding the party be canceled, the church said.

Initially, the league objected to the church’s plan to charge a fee to attend and that the church used the license-protected words “Super Bowl” in its promotions.

Pastor John D. Newland said he told the NFL his church would not charge anyone and that it would drop the use of the forbidden words.

But the NFL objected to the church’s plans to use a projector to show the game, saying the law limits it to one TV no bigger than 55 inches.

My church thought it would be a good idea to have an event in which all the young adults would be together in one room instead of their regular Sunday school classes.  I think they are going to try to do this once a quarter.  Since our church is so large, it can be kinda hard getting to know one another, and this was one way of working on that concern.

The featured speaker at this event was the very noted-accomplished-gifted-saintly-talented-intelligent Alaskan author Margaret Feinberg who happens to be married to a very tall viking.  Personally, I think she looks like a blond Nina from 24, and yes, I’ve been watching way too much of those 24 DVDs and can’t get enough.  Towards the end of her presentation was a video of some of the young adults at the church being interviewed.  For some reason, I was one of the three that was interviewed and was asked about my little space on the world-wide-web.  Margaret got such a kick out of my interview she called me a ‘Mouse Potato’ because of my little hobby.

After the event I went over and introduced myself to her and found a new friend.  She was nice enough to autograph one of her books for SisterGeeding and she even watched WifeGeeding remove her glass-eye.  She even wrote about it on her blog.  Heck, she even wrote a little something about BON.

If you are interested in the inteview, you can watch it below.  I got a kick out of the text that appears at the bottom of the screen when I first pop up.  And yes, I did have one butchered cliche.

I thought this sink was kinda cool.
