He is arguing with himself; I find myself agreeing with myself more and more!

Ernie, i was away most of the day, returned to catch this first-thing .. it's made my day.

Maybe he doesn't have a church by and is really lonely...

You should warn us innocents when you post a link to a satire site. I just made a fool of myself on google+

who knew Ernie has an inner oj?
when i was in 5+6th grade, a new family moved in, a few houses away from us.
they were Irish, several children, one girl in my class at public school. they were all so cheerful+laughing, exotic to me, coming from a quieter, more sober family. i was amazed at how this little girl could so readily laugh - at herself! a shocking new concept for me.

i decided to quietly "take notes" from her, to learn how to laugh at myself, which relieves so much unnecessary awkwardness and pain .. light heartedness seems a gift for some, but, it can be learned!

Proverbs 17:22
A merry heart does good like a medicine: but a broken spirit dries the bones.

i like the way Ernie tweaked the subject line, to "make it his own."
i hope you can find a way to get a chuckle out of it. "default to laughter" is a good option.

I think it's the second part-lonely. The notion of spending all day arguing is depressing.

Where's the joy? The compassion? The living out of discipleship in real time?


This bit of satire runs truer than many think, sadly. I see it in action in campgrounds all the time.
