Six Flags

Check this out - I am taking the students of Freedom to Six Flags over Georgia.  I am really excited - I love roller coasters.  We are going on July 30th.  If you want to go - let me know.  It is going to be incredible.

Slightly Ashamed

If you check my list of things I don’t like - you will see that David Archuleta is on that list.  I look at him and his boyish good looks and humble attitude and the whole package makes me sick.  He is an ‘alpha male.’  There is no wrong that this kid could do.  He did mess up a song.  But this week he sang a song that I had never heard.  I didn’t want to tell anyone about this, but i feel like I need to defend my position.  I still don’t like Archuleta - but his performance this week was awesome.  So much so - that I bought it on iTunes.  I bought the whole David Archuleta version of “You’re the Voice” on iTunes.

And because I don’t know a good way to segue into this - so I will just say it.  Another song that will be played during the Guitar Hero Tournament is Woman by Wolfmother.

Guitar Hero Tournament

I announced earlier in the week that there would be a Guitar Hero Tournament on Friday.  I have reconsidered.  Having less than a week to prepare for this is ridiculous.  But on Saturday, April 5 at 6:00 - the tournament will be held at Patat Automotive.  I am going to be releasing songs that definitely will be in the tourney.

The songs will be coming from both Guitar Hero II and III.   The first round will be songs from either the first or second set of each game.  Songs will be played head to head and each pairing will play a different song.  As you progress through the rounds - the songs will inevitably get harder.

The first song to be revealed is (drum-roll please) Mississippi Queen by Mountain.

Wow

Just read this post. Be amazed. Be overjoyed. Know that God is working in the Church.

I Feel Good

Sometimes you wake up in the morning and you go to work and you just aren’t feeling it.  Today - I am feeling it.  I woke up this morning with a good feeling.  I don’t know how to explain it.  I guess what I am experiencing is the joy that comes through knowing Jesus Christ.  It is a beautiful thing.  I am happiness that surpasses my circumstances.  God is good - and I don’t think I revel in his joy enough.  His joy is my strength.  And today - I feel really strong.

Announcements:

Middle School Girls - there is going to be a slumber party/sleep over extravaganza at my house on Thursday.  Laura Beth is going to hang out and do all the girly-slumber-partyish things with them.  (I am going to disappear for the night)  So if you read this blog and are a middle school girl - come to the party.  If your daughter is a middle school girl - get her to come.  I promise they will have a blast.  Laura Beth is looking forward to hanging out and getting to know everyone a little bit better.

LINC Students - this is the first official announcement about this - but this Friday - there will be a Guitar Hero Tournament at Patat Automotive hosted by LINC.  I will push the tournament on Wednesday night - but if you are reading this and you come to LINC or if you have a student that comes - send them.  We are going to hang out, have a good time, eat some pizza, and have a Guitar Hero Tournament.  This is going to be a lot of fun.  And there will be a prize for the (second place) winner.  (I would say that there would be a first place prize - but I am going to be in the tournament.  So - the person I beat in the final round will get a prize of some sort.)

If you are a student a Freedom Fellowship - come hang out with us on Wednesday nights in the basement of Patat Automotive on Wade Hampton Boulevard from 7:00ish to 8:00ish.  If you need to directions call the office or email me at blake.comer@gmail.com.  Have a great Spring Break.
