October 19

By | October 19, 2009

A long time ago I wished aloud for a better way to access old TMC chapel messages.  Somebody else must have had the same desireVery nice!  Where to start?  How about Dr. Pilkey or Dr. Bookman or Harry Walls?

How do you sign your email?  Sincerely, regards, cheers?  It turns out that I’m not the only one who struggles.

Until recently I mailed checks I received into my bank in California for deposit.  I did this for years from Israel and continued it when I got here.  Unfortunately one of the deposits I mailed was never received by the bank.  Doubly unfortunately one of those checks was from a copyright violator who finally paid up.  So I switched to deposit by ATM.  This is certainly fool-proof, as the checks cannot get lost in the mail.  But they can, I learned, get lost in the machine.  The machine ate the checks (in a bank envelope) but then claimed it had not.  (They were found a few days later, probably by the guy emptying the ATM.)  Sigh.

I don’t think I posted this before.  The blue and green colors are the same color.

AnimatedHebrew.com seems to have some nice resources for learning biblical Hebrew.  A link on it led to a good recording of the priestly blessing (Num 6:24-26) in flash format so you can read along.  I found the mp3 version of it on the lower left of this page, entitled “The Aaronic Benediction” along with a few others.

19 years ago today I started dating a girl.

    Yes, this is way cool! Pilkey and Bookman are great places to start, but don’t forget Todd Bolen and Randy Cook!

    Joe Keller was the one driving the TMC Pulpit idea, and Bryan Kirby and the folks (including interns) in Chapel Media made it happen along with the computer department. The library had been transferring old tapes to MP3s for awhile, as well, so that was a big help. These folks are definitely worthy of honor for their work on a wonderful project that will bless many (and that took quite a long time).

    Kudos to Joe, Bryan and all the others who made this a reality. May the Lord use these messages in the lives of his people for many years.

    Kiersten & I call the anniversary of the day I asked her out as our “date-iversary”. We’re going on 11 and a half years of dating (9 of which have been as a married couple). ;-)
