The Pilot

Hurray!  You have found my blog!  I’ve finally entered the 20^th century and created a blog.  I genuinely doubt I will ever indulge in the 21^st century phenomenon of “tweeting” – I don’t take myself that serious.  I will be mindful of my words because, my goodness, I do not want to endure the wrath of Piper and/or his followers.

So why blog now, you may ask?  Well, I have found that I need to be proactive in debriefing via some-type-of journal.  Also, after completing seminary, I find a need to write something about anything.  This and $4 will buy you a bag of boiled peanuts from the guy on the street corner near my parents’ house – and both are delicious. 

           

To inaugurate my blog, I turn to a Viking of short sayings, the late Mitch Hedberg: 

“I think they could take Sesame seeds off the market and I wouldn't even care. I can't imagine five years from now saying, ‘Damn, remember Sesame seeds? What happened? All the buns are blank!’ … How's a Sesame seed stick to a bun? That's magical! There's got to be some Sesame seed glue out there! Either that, or they're adhesive on one side. ‘Take the Sesame seed out, remove the backing, place it on the bun. Now your bun will look spec-tac-u-lar.’ What does a Sesame seed grow into? I don't know; we never gave them a chance! What is a Sesame? ... It's a street! It's a way...to open sh*t!”
