Engrish

I usually am a fan of English. It's pretty easy for me to write or type something for my classes, but tonight was brutal. Hang on, gotta go put my sheets in the dryer...Ok. I'm back. I realize as you read this, there hasn't really been a passing of time. But just imagine that took around 2 minutes. Anyways, tonight I had to type an annotated bibliography for a research paper that I am going to be doing later in the semester. I had to find 8 articles or essays, two of which had to come from our textbook, all about the issue of spanking as a method of discipline. It was like getting a tooth extracted. That was how painful and un-fun that was. But, it's due in 6 days, and I'm done. So that's good!

My brain is fried. Nothing deep tonight. Sorry guys! But, I will post a video to an awesome, awesome song by Matt Papa, a singer/songwriter that I enjoy.

Here's Open Hands.





Again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to those with knowledge, but time and chance happen to them all. For man does not know his time. Like fish that are taken in an evil net, and like birds that are caught in a snare, so the children of man are snared at an evil time, when it suddenly falls upon them. I have also seen this example of wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great to me. There was a little city with few men in it, and a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it. But there was found in it a poor, wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man. But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man's wisdom is despised and his words are not heard.
(Ecclesiastes 9:11-16 ESV)

Philos, Justin
