Book Report: Captivating

Captivating was written by both John and Stasi Eldredge. It follows the same layout as Wild at Heart did which John wrote a few years ago. Sorry. I'm actually going to cheat on this book report just a bit. I'm not going to write again how I feel about the book, but rather I'm just going to copy the review that I wrote for Amazon.com for this book. Once again, sorry.Wild at Heart was an amazing book and so I was excited to learn that the Eldredges were collaborating to put Captivating together. Like Wild at Heart did for men, it speaks to the innermost desires that women have. Other reviews might leave you wondering if it is worth reading,...

Once upon a time...

I read. I read novels. I read the Bible. I read self-help books. When I look at magazines, I actually read the articles. I read the newspaper. I read blogs from people I know.

I have to admit that I didn't even know what band he hailed from (Skid Row, by the way). I found a video of him where a fan threw a bottle and hit him in the head. He then proceeded to leap off stage and send both feet careening down into the guy. It was pretty funny with a definite WOW affect. It reminded me of a story I heard about Henry...

Bagging A Snipe

Last week was a landmark week for me. I bagged the ever-so-joked-about snipe. I caught both Big Foot and the equally elusive Snuffleupagus on high definition digital video. I ate a 10 pound steak in less than an hour. I climbed to the peak of Mount Everest...naked. I swam across the Pacific...naked. Don't ask. I tamed a lion and rode him like a horse...fully clothed. I moved a pencil around using only the power of my mind. I ... I ... I may be out of amazing impossible things that I didn't really do.Okay, you caught me. I didn't really do any of those things. I did, however, finally do something that I never really believed that...
