I was reminded of this gem: Featureman’s “How to Eat a Watermelon the Correct Way”

Thanks! Added to my list to visit.

I saw it at the drive-in but look forward to watching it again at home so I can notice more of those details.

Cool shot. I love the sand labyrinth! Where was this?

Throwback to June 1998 at Creation Festival East. This is where I first met Jeeves (on the left in the yellow glasses). Katt was one of my earliest online friends and this was the first time we met in person. I wore fun hats at the time. As you can see, we were all pretty cool.

I was interning at Teen Mania Ministries at the time and in lieu of going on a mission trip that summer, Matt (in the white shirt) and I road tripped to a few music festivals to promote Acquire The Fire events. Jeeves was considering the internship and I think meeting us helped convince him. Sorry? 🤣

I also hit it off really well with Luke (in the red shirt). We ran into him at a couple of the festivals we went to. I think he was in a band named Little Flock. Unfortunately, I lost track of him in the following years.

🍿 Watched Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and enjoyed it. Loved seeing James Acaster in it; he’s one of my favorite comedians. It wasn’t quite as good as Afterlife, though maybe that’s because this didn’t hit in the feels as much.

Hahah, perfect.

Quiz: Which song that makes white people go nuts are you?

I got “Since U Been Gone”

Take a few minutes to watch this delightful, hand-made miniatures film, Wreckhouse, by Marina Minis

I got an Aranet4 CO2 sensor at the end of last year. My home is usually around 600ppm, which is decent. I turned on one gas burner on the stove and it quickly jumped to 1300 (poor). Opening a window and turning on a fan brought it back to about 1000. Ventilation is important!

For funk, you might dig Vulfpeck, The Beautiful Game. The whole album is great, but “Dean Town” and “Conscious Club” are a good taste.
