Cool iTunes Wish List

About a month ago I submitted a request to the iTunes suggestion box asking if there was a way you could make a ‘Wish List’ of sorts inside of iTunes. Well… now there is. Isn’t Apple great? I was using the Shopping Cart feature but that got to be ridiculous because there are certain songs …

Star Wars Music Video

I did a bad thing today. I watched the Episode III music video. A Hero falls is possibly the best SW song I have ever heard. John Williams, as always, has done an excellent job of putting the emotion on the screen in the song he composes. It gave me chills. I want to listen …

Hitchhiker’s

Watched The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy yesterday and I have to say that I liked the movie. It was very funny at times… I found myself laughing out loud, by myself at times. I can definately see a lot of people liking this movie because The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy book attracts many …

Tiger Story

Well… OSX 10.4 came out on Friday, and having ordered it 9 days previous I was excited for the release. I had planned for this post to be about my new Mac expierence in Tiger, but that is not the case. What is the case is that I didn’t get Tiger and on top of …

Google on your phone

Haven’t posted a relevant tip in a while so I will do the Google Mobile search capabilities. They are cool. Basically, you send google a text message and you recieve great info back. Like today I wanted the weather so I typed ‘weather omaha ne’ and sent it to GOOGL (46645) and within seconds I …

Sahara

Monday I went and saw Sahara with my roomate, and I have to say this: It was not what I expected. I was a little disapointed. I thought it would be more of a treasure hunt type movie (Indiana Jones style movie) BUT NO. I can’t really classify this movie myself. IMDB says that this …

Wow, this is coke with Lime

Well… having not blogged in a while a lot has gone on in the last month. The Pope died, the City Council and Mayors campaigns are heating up, and Coca-Cola has introduced coke with lime. Having not really the guts to try one in the last three weeks I finally got the courage to try …

Robots

Went and saw Robots on Saturday with my roomate and my brother. I was suprised that this movie was a LucasFilm. I was not surprised to see the Star Wars trailer, because that was the reason I had to see this movie. After seeing the trailer on the big screen, the website version is just …

New Episode III Trailer

The new Episode III trailer is out and thanks to my brother (thank you Marcus) I have gotten the chance to see it. Two words: Oh My. I cannot wait for this movie. I will probably have to watch this about 5 or 6 times today before I can walk away satisfied. May 19th is …

Final thoughts on ONE

I know with out a doubt in my heart this expierence has changed me. God has sent me through a incredible expierence in the last three days and I am grateful. To anyone who reads my thoughts, I want you to know this: God loves you and you are his beloved. That over everything is …

Day 1 of ONE

Day 1 or ONE has been great so far… we arrived at Willow Creek Community Church an hour before we scheduled to arrive. I am now sitting in the HUGE food court waiting for the first session of the ONE conference 🙂 God is good all the time, All the time God is good.

Encouraging Word

“…Didn’t I tell you that I must do whatever the LORD tells me?” -Numbers 23:26 This was one of the verses I read in an email from a friend of mine from UNO today. I was so encouraged by this verse I have to blog about it. I feel just like Balaam in this passage. …

My Trip

I am soooo excited about the trip I am going on to Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington IL, a suburb of Chicago. It’s called the ONE conference and it is for Jr. High, Sr. High, and College mentors who want to learn more about leading students to Christ. The best part is that …

Hitch

My brothers and I went and saw Hitch on Friday night and I have to say it was better than I thought it would be. From the previews I thought it would be your typical romantic comedy with some sappy love song ending, and I was proven wrong. Will Smith has been in a lot …

Self Reflection

I have recently had the time to do some self reflection, and I have come to the realization that a lot of what motivates me, is what is hindering me. I am motivated by seeing people I am in contact with, being changed because of something I did or helped them do. This is great …

My mother

My mother had open heart surgery yesterday and I have to explain how it felt for me to be in this situation. God has humbled my heart and given me peace about a lot of things this week and this was one of them. I felt at ease about the whole situation. I felt like …

Omaha World Herald Article

Well… for those of you seeing my blog for the first time I want to thank the Omaha World Herald for their great article on blogs. It was well put together, and I had a lot of fun assisting in its creation. I think it tells a lot about blogs for those who know nothing …
