The Hobbit Hole VI - And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

[ecurbh]

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And Whither Then? I Cannot Say...

• First thread: New Zealander builds Hobbit hole
• Second thread: The New Hobbit Hole
• Third thread: The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads! (Congratulations, we filled it up!)
• Fourth Thread: The Hobbit Hole IV - The Road Goes Ever On...
• Fifth Thread: The Hobbit Hole V - Where Many Paths and Errands Meet...

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

Well....on some equations the text is in italics and I don't know how to get them normal.

the guy from Saddleback that did the "preachin" for our presentation into it (a simulcast from California) was really good.

What I find remarkable (as someone found pretty infrequently at church) is that I know who and what you are talking about! Because the Baptist church we visited last Sunday was gonna be doing the same thing.

And I know a little about what you mean as far as Rockin' out, if this church was similar to the mood of yours. It was pretty different than the Lutheran services I grew up with, where the pastors were very quiet shy people who would never be confused with televangelists, and the hymns were right out of the hymnal. Holding the hymnal itself I think set the more serious tone.

It was a new kind of experience for me, seeing a service with a big television screen, sound system and Powerpoint presentations... and the lyrics being up on the screen during the hymns made it feel a bit like Karaoke.

I liked the music, but then I was eyein' one of the guys in the brass section.

I do not want Tony Stewart to win this either.

Personal rivalry with a friend back home.

Heh...just a little tap on the left rear fender....

[Wneighbor]

Tap it!! Let's go!

Well, we got a few more laps. I think Dale's savin' up for a big finish.

That is EXACTLY what it it's like in my church. Got a praise team instead of a choir...half dozen people with a band behind them. The HUGE TV screens and the hymnals gather dust...have never even been used since we moved into this new building. We scramble to find the hymns (when they're hymns) in the hymnals in an effort to teach the boys how to read a hymnal, but usually they only sing one verse and go on to another 24/7 praise chorus (24 words sang 7 times). I think they only sing the ocassional hymn in the "traditional" service to molify the grey-headed ones.

Some Daytona history, from 1953:

For you non-NASCAR folks ... the races at Daytona used to be run on the beach, on the sand.

[Wneighbor]

And dang! I wish I coulda seen those! Closer to the water the better!

I still love dirt track racing. And there's a sand drag strip out past Llano.

[Wneighbor]

YES!!!!!

[Overtaxed]

I like this one.

[Overtaxed]

C'mon Junior!

[Wneighbor]

He's gonna do it! He's going just fine!

[Overtaxed]

As long as he doesn't cut down a tire in turn 4 on the last lap.

[Wneighbor]

Stewart and Busch just can't line up.

I'm gonna be screamin' if somethin' goes wrong here!

[Wneighbor]

shut up!

[Overtaxed]

[Wneighbor]

YES YES YES!!!
