50

Yesterday I did the first thing ever in my life!
Actually the exclamation point should be a frown but it was a noteworthy day in my life! I paid $50 for something I never had before. It wasn't a mint condition copy of a Wonder Woman comic, or a autographed copy of the new Rob Bell book "Love Wins" which I believe everyone should read. I have thought about paying $50 for a CD copy of Rob Jungklas "The Flame" if I could find a copy because I love it so much. I pulled up to a Meijer gas station and filled up the old Saturn. The pump shut off at $49.02 and I managed to squeeze a a few fumes out to make it an even $50. Wow I just filled up my own car for $50. I am sure glad I am not driving that old "Grand Am" I had in college. I can laugh about it right now, but what if it takes $75 to fill my car up or even $100. The next thing you know we will be in "Road Warrior" territory.
I have also started reading a short book for "Letters for Young Calvinist" The whole TULIP thing is starting to make sense. Read the new Rob Bell book "Love Wins".

  1. Thanks Dan.
    I think I will read it.
    I just began reading the Book, Jesus, by Ratzinger. It is the second volume of his work. Starts out good.

  2. I pre-ordered Love Wins from Amazon... am awaiting its arrival.
    You mean TULIP never made sense before?

  3. what are your thoughts on the book Dan? What do you think about what RB is saying? I cannot contribute intelligently to the discussion yet, as I have not gotten my book yet. Slow shipping!
