This is some powerful stuff. It’s hard to quantify how much this moment must have meant for the kid fighting cancer. I hate that it got the best of him. At least he had a really transcendent moment. What I wouldn’t give to know what the lead singer told him. RIP Tyler.

Key & Peele: East/West College Bowl
At the Super Bowl outreach I went to this video came up in a conversation. It makes me laugh every time I watch it.

How to Write a Worship Song (In 5 Minutes or Less)
How sad is it that when he plays his fake song I was like, “Not bad”?

Being Luther
That’s what my dad has always said (jokingly?) he would name his autobiography. Luther is his first name for those of you who no have any idea who I am or who my dad is. Luther is the name he uses to filter junk mail and phone calls as no one on Earth refers to him by that name.
He got a facebook profile about a year ago and has slowly been working himself into a groove on the social media giant. Recently, I’d say he’s hit his stride. My dad may be writing a manifesto. At first I didn’t pay much attention because the posts were really long and I didn’t want to have to hit the “more” link. My wife being the more patient of the two of us took the time to read it and informed me my dad said basically said I am the last great American. I have no argument there.
I think in the next couple weeks I’m going to see if I can’t get my dad to let me post his stuff on here in hopes of getting him to start a blog. A word of note: my dad’s blog would consist of political diatribes, beer reviews, and discussions about the three or four obscure movies he loves. I don’t know about you, but that smells like a soon-to-be viral hit!

Recommended Reading . . .
I got a chuckle when I opened up the recommended reading file from Liberty for my current counseling class. I’ll hop right on this. For what it’s worth, you may actually enjoy some of the books on this list if you have an affinity for therapeutic thought. Only one of the books is actually part of my course work.
