Added Flash MP3 Player

As the Ministry Leader for Audio Visual at Hunter Hills, one of my responsibilities is the uploading of the sermons online. I have added a new feature to that this week and am embeding a flash MP3 player that will play the sermon as part of the post.

I downloaded the Flash MP3 Player 2.3.
It was pretty easy to set up. I just downloaded the package, read the Read-Me file, and followed the directions.


Pretty cool, huh...

M E M O R A N D U M

To: Pluto, 9th Orbiting Body

From: The Sun, Center of Solar System

Re: Demotion For Unplanetary-like Behavior

Pluto,

This memorandum is to advise you of your demotion as a planetary body within this Solar System. As you are aware I have had several discussions with you about your unplanetary-like behavior. It would appear that our previous meetings and agreements have not had the desired effect of changing your behavior.

First, you have not taken the proper steps that we have agreed upon to accumulate an appropriate amount of mass for someone in your position. Secondly, your work area remains cluttered as you appear to have no ability to clear the neighborhood around your orbit. Finally, your eccentric orbit interferes with your co-worker, Neptune, and that takes you well above and below main plane of this Solar System. This has caused disruption is the work environment that can not be tolerated.

Therefore, effective today you will be demoted from your position as "Planet" and assume the position of "Dwarf Planet." We will reconvene in 10,000 years to determine if these obstacles have been overcome and reconsider your status.

Sincerely,

The Sun

Having a Baby

For those who don't know, we found out two weeks ago that we are pregnant. However, today was the first day I had an opportunity to go to the doctor with Erin. It was amazing to see the little heart beating so fast in the sonogram. We are 8 weeks along.

We are excited, yet terrified. After trying so long and hard to have a child, we have adopted two absolutely beautiful children who we cherish with all our hearts. After adopting we wondered why we ever tried to have children the "natural" way and already had plans to adopt more children in the future. We weren't quite ready for this.

So, we will have 3 children who are 3 years old or younger. SCARY!!! Mihaela will turn 3 in February, the baby is due at the beginning of April, and then Noah will turn 2 in May. Please pray for us!!!!

Why Nerds are Unpopular

Why Nerds are Unpopular
"It's because the adults, who no longer have any economic use for you, have abandoned you to spend years cooped up together with nothing real to do."
