Ever tried one of these?
Taste? Think inside of a grape, meets lime, has lunch with a cucumber.
Wasn't bad ... but probably won't buy one again.
What new thing have you tried?

It's a Horned Melon. The spikey-looking horns do prick.

If you rely on your computer daily for work, you can imagine how tough a day is without a computer. That was my day today.
My computer was working well this morning. After checking email and such first thing, I closed down and went to work. My MacBook "grey screened" me!
I immediately scheduled a Genius Bar appointment (at the Apple Store). The prognosis ... Bad egg of a disc. I purchased a new one at Fry's at the recommendation of the "Genius" who showed me how to change the disc myself. Gotta love 'em.
Here is the great part. I was a bit dreading reloading all the programs and such. The Time Machine feature (Apple's backup system on their new OS) reloaded everything for me. EVERYTHING ... Apps and all! It was flawless.
What do you like about your computer?
This only worked out well cause .... my last backup was last Sunday and only lost three days of work.
Computer non-issues ...

I am speaking a message this weekend - "Tis the Season Not To Worry." It has nothing to do with Christmas and everything to do with our devotion. (see Matthew 6)
Most of our worries or fears are unfounded but that doesn't make them any less real in our emotions. Jesus has some great stuff to say with regard to our emotions tied to our devotion.
My biggest worry is that I am not or will not be a good husband and dad. I think about it a lot and am constantly giving over to God who knows that all to well about me.
What's your biggest worry these days? Come on ... share it!

As we sat that I felt a bit in a time warp. Mom, Dad, Jaime, Tony, and me were together for the first time (without our individual families) since 1988. 20 years! Man it was wild. We had fun and talked about stuff growing up. We laughed a lot.
If you haven't talked to your family members recently ... give them a call or get together with them.
NOTE: My pictures are having trouble uploading. Will do some later.
Time Warp
Yesterday, my brother and I drive to Riverside to be with my dad for his surgery this morning. My sister Jaime came from San Diego. As we ate dinner last night, my mom cooked one of our old favorites - Pepper Pie - and we enjoyed hanging out and reminiscing.As we sat that I felt a bit in a time warp.

I heard yesterday that BLJ will be coming out in movie form. If you have yet to read the book...read it before the movie comes out.
The book is always better than the movie (see The Firm, Misery, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants - Ok, I didn't read that one!).
I enjoy Don Miller and his writing. I used to like Steve Taylor and his music. Let's see if this combo comes out like a Reece's Peanut Butter Cup!
Here is a little clip to set us up!

At the airport my wife over heard a page for someone with the last name Jennings.
Melissa: "That was my last name when I was a little girl. And when I married daddy I changed my last name."
Gigi: "To Mom?"
Telling it like it is

The Crossroads is participating in Operation Christmas Child. Since 1963 Operation Christmas Child has brought joy and hope to children in desperate situations around the world through gift-filled shoe boxes and the Good News of God’s love.
While drinking a cup o' joe this morning I saw a cool plug on the TODAY show! Check out the sign behind Daniel Craig.
The collection of the shoe boxes will be this weekend November 16 at The Crossroads.
