@TheBabylonBee no lie, I attach an airtag to her when we travel...just to prevent this last resort

@TheBabylonBee came up in our small group - the guy who does a jail ministry: "some of the guys over there are doing life together" 😅

a fantastic addendum to Sunday worship - men were created for work & doing it to the glory of God. Amen, Pastor Rick

This is probably my favorite part of any flight. We’ve been airborne and suspended in animation for more hours than most people consider a regular working day. The sun never did set because at these high latitudes it never really does during this time of year despite it being 3 am. The flying First Officer just left to the back for a minute or two to take his cruise uniform off, which today consisted of flannel pants, a Pink Floyd hoodie (massive brownie points for that I might add) and hotel slippers, and slip back into his crisp white shirt and golden epaulettes and wings. I can hear my relief cruise First Officer working the coffee maker in the galley a few feet behind me in his valiant and appreciated effort to keep us all caffeinated and ready for what is about to unfold over the next 45 minutes. And there, right there, for a few minutes, I sit in complete silence and solitude admiring the faint dark blue horizon before me prior to the opening scene of a complicated yet beautifully scripted ballet which will bring 750,000 lbs. of jet aircraft to a safe landing and us 3 to our soft fluffy beds at the end of a long tiring day… What a life….

I have been informed by NBC that I won’t be back with FNIA this fall and it has given me time to reflect and also to look ahead. 

It’s disappointing  news but I want to thank my NBC family for making the last 17 years so special.  I’ll have lasting memories of my time there, especially with Rodney Harrison who has become a tremendous friend.

God has always directed me in these moments and while I’m not sure what the next step will be for me—whether it will be in football, in broadcasting, or getting more involved in church and community outreach —I know God has plans for my life and I can’t wait see them unfold. And I am reminded of one of my favorite verses in the Bible-Romans 8:28. “God works all things for His good for those who love the Lord.”

@lady_valor_07 had one last week (I'm 61, does that count?) gotta be creamy peanut butter tho - chunky just signals a lack of commitment to see the process thru.

"I am a man. See me as a human being—not a birth defect, not a syndrome. I don’t need to be eradicated."

Frank Stephens pleads for the humanization of people with Down syndrome, studies suggest 67-90% are aborted in the United States due to faulty prenatal screenings.

@SlowToWrite the only thing that will fix the Super Bowl halftime is making it not a musical performance. That's an old, tired trope.

Suggestions you say?

•regular season awards show
•celebrity flag football
•stand-up comedy
•locker room speeches

...think outta the box @NFL

[ransomed @randyc0]

@TomBuck this will be the 3rd year of watching the game on my terms:
• no pre-game, no post-game
• read a book during commercial breaks
•take a walk, refill snacks at half

I watch football, period.

[ransomed @randyc0]

@SheepyWolfe so you're saying Romans 1:21 is true?

[ransomed @randyc0]

@SheepyWolfe that, and they always try those isms in *human* societies, both are utterly contradictory to human nature.

[ransomed @randyc0]

@YourCalvinist hah! smiles start to the weekend, thanks Pastor Keith!

@FreckledLiberty yup, and be wary of any guy who denies this

Shaping up as a great #MLB #Postseason. Absent any big East Coast cities to gush over, media will have to talk baseball. Two domes mean there's little chance of bad weather and some mid/smaller markets featured - love it!
