@JakeAndBenKSL Paper cut is my number 1. My list would also include biting your tongue/inside cheek.

@VidAngel When is Silo season 3 episode 10 going to be available?

@BensHoops You should try biting the top off a Red Vine and pour in a Pixie Stick.

@JakeAndBenKSL I don’t know how well this fits, but Sirius by the Alan Parsons Project. That intro always pumps me up—probably because it also reminds me of the Jazz and Bulls in the Finals.

@JakeAndBenKSL The man's monotone voice was perfect for retelling the story.

@BensHoops Happy to hear that you’re doing better and that you’re able to be back on the air. Hopefully all will continue to go well for you.

[Chadwick @Chadwickbowen]

@TerribleMaps Far Eastern Utah, obviously…

@BensHoops What are your thoughts on the new free-throw rule?

@ScottyGZone That song always reminds me of the scene from Forest Gump where everyone is doing drugs.

@kirbyhocutt You have an amazing opportunity right in front of you. If you are proactive with the situation you’re in by making the decision now to not allow Sorsby to play, you can be on the right side of history. You will be the good guys.

I reenacted this so many times growing up. #goodtimes

Why did Tolkien call death a gift?

In The Silmarillion, he writes death is an exclusive gift given to mankind by God. All other creatures envy this gift, including the immortal elves:

Mankind alone, through death, is granted union with the divine.

Tolkien's point is that immortality in a fallen world is not a blessing, nor man's actual purpose. To live forever in a world marred by corruption, vice, and decay is to be trapped with no escape.

Death, then, is not a tragic ending, but a release — a return of creation to its creator. The humility of mortal man leads to a glory far greater than immortality.

In other words, man was made for something greater than earthly pleasure. Death is the preparation for eternity.

Today we tend to see this backwards. We treat death as the ultimate evil, and endless life as the ultimate good, no matter the cost. We try to preserve life indefinitely, and in doing so, lose sight of what life is actually for.

Tolkien's final insight is simple:

A man who refuses to die for anything will one day find he has nothing worth living for.

A world that fears death above all else will never reach the highest good, for life truly begins when you discover a love greater than life itself.

In a world that increasingly may mock our beliefs, we will be known by our kindness, our service, our integrity.

What a remarkable time to be a disciple of Jesus Christ and to never be ashamed of His gospel.

@FiredUpCoug Maybe this?

@sister_slay Man, He wasn’t messing around when He rolled that stone away.
