Shawn’s Updates

 

*  Sorry it’s been so long since my last “Shawn’s Updates.”  Life has been a little busy with the holidays coming.  Anyway, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT THE SAINTS ARE 10-0!!!!!  WHO DAT!!!

*  I must say that I think if the Saints do go to the Superbowl and win the whole State of Louisiana will shutdown for a month long party!!!

*  If I haven’t already told everyone, Kaitlyn and I are pregnant again!!  I’m STOCKED!!

*  I finally am getting to run some appointments next week with my new insurance business.

*  My health and wellness business is going well, but I haven’t had time to really work with it the last few weeks because of my current job.

*  Starting businesses is fun, and the 2 I have right now I really think are going to be something big!!

*  I have been studying the book of Acts the last few days and I must say that, that time in the Church’s history must have been crazy!!  With all the growth, miracles, etc.

*  I would love to go back in time and just observe some of History’s biggest moments and try to feel what the people felt during those times.

*  I have heard a lot lately about the dollar crashing…..I’m not sure what I think about that or even what the outcome of something like that would be but it makes me want to pray a whole lot harder.

*  I would really like to meet President Obama.  I’m not a fan of his policies but he really seems like a nice guy!!

*  I wonder if the 2010 elections are really going to change as much as people think they will.

*  Speaking of President Obama, I must say that after his term of office if over, I think he should be an ambassador for America because he seems to communicate really well with others.

*  Has anyone noticed the gray hairs on President Obama?  The Office of President must really wear you out because if you look at those who started their terms with a little grey or non at all, by the time it’s all over they are super old looking!!  Check this out on President George W. Bush:

 

*  I wonder what President Obama will look like?

I guess that’s all I got for now.  Going to go rest as I am fight a cold that won’t seem to go away.  Until next time.

 

Much love,

Shawn

Christian Side Hug?

I honestly don’t have words for the following video!!  This MUST be a Pentacostal Church!!  The funny part is that they condemn “frontal” hugs yet refer to themselves as “rough riders.”  Odd given the fact that there is a brand name of condoms called that too!!  I must say that if this happened in my youth group when I was a teenager I would have stopped going to that church, converted to Catholicism, and become a monk!!  Ok, in all seriousness………is it just me or is the world right about the America Church?  We are some CHEESY folks!!  :)  10 stars for being funny though!!!!!!

Loser of the Week: Jesse Jackson

Guess who’s back?  Back again……Loser of the Week is back……..tell a friend.  Sorry that it’s been a while since my last loser of the week.  Life has been pretty busy on the work end of things and I am just getting the chance to catch up on some much needed blogging.  Of course being that it has been so busy I haven’t really had a chance to check in on who’s being a loser around this great country of ours.  However, after checking out my twitter account (click here to follow me on twitter.) and seeing the following story on the Drudge Report I knew exactly who this weeks “Loser of the Week,” would be.  Before I get into it though, you really need to follow this link.

Ok, now that you’re back let me get into this weeks rant:

ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME??!!! I am so sick of this idiot taking up space on this planet!!!  If there was ever a more racist human being on the planet it would be this jerk!!  I really hope that this guys takes a long drive off a short bridge one day because he is one of the many reasons for the continued racial strains in this nation.  I am so sick of black leaders complaining about how racist this country is, when the real problems are people like Jesse Jackson who say everything that that he disagrees with is racist and just the “white man trying to keep the black man down.”

EARTH TO JESSE JACKSON!!!  WE ARE IN THE YEAR 2009, NOT 1963!!  GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR………ER…….OUT OF THE SAND YOU IDIOT!!  I just can’t get over the fact that it’s ok for this racist bigot to say these kinds of things and not be held accountable.  This dude got Don Imus fired for less and NOTHING is happening to him?!!  TALK ABOUT RACISM!!!!  So, Mr. Big Black Racist Jesse Jackson, you are the “Loser of the Week.”  Hopefully someday soon your actions will catch up to you.  Until next time enjoy the following:

Much love,

Shawn
