| No (Pointing Out) Fat Chicks | | 2008-07-06 15:40:07 | | My six year old daughter once said of one of the teachers at her school, "Mrs. _____ is really strong." She added, by way of clarification, "Because we can't say fat."I'm not sure where my daughter got the idea that strong is an appropriate euphemism for fat, but I'm sure I had something to do with teaching her that calling someone fat is not socially acceptable. Once, for example, when my kids were younger, I took them to Sears. While I was browsing the hardware section, they were playing I-Spy, pointing out various items in the store. "I spy something red," or "I spy something that you could use to mow your lawn," that sort of thing.I remember watching in dream-like slow motion as the escalator deposited a fantastically large woman directly in front of my children. I saw the scenario playing out in my mind before it happened, but there was nothing I could do to prevent it. I didn't even have time to run away and leave my children to be Sears orphans."I spy a big fat lady!" my ... | | By: Mattress Police - Antisocial Commentary | | |
| | Avalanche Woes: Pointing Fingers | | 2007-11-26 07:38:08 | | At first glance, 12-9-1 seems like a decent record for the first 22 games of the hockey season. It's above .500 and worth 25 points in the standings. But in the Western Conference, there is no room for mediocrity, and the Avalanche should already know that after last season's non-playoffs debacle. I admit that it is very, very early still, but today's Western Conference standings are worth mentioning: Like I said, I know it's still very early, but take a long look at "Colorado" listed just below that big black dividing line. There they are again, one point out of the playoffs in an extremely competitive conference. The Avs have lost four of the last five games, been outscored 21-8, and have surrendered their lead in the Northwest standings (twice). Clearly, something is wrong in Denver. So, who's to blame? As Mike contends in his first Mile High Hockey post, Coach Joel Quenneville must shoulder the responsibility for a highly talented tea... | | By: Mile High Hockey | | |
| | Pointing To The Mystery | | 2007-06-25 10:12:14 | | From Pilgrim’s Notebook:
To be spiritual, one must be a master of translation. That is to say, a person must be able to speak on several levels, none of them quite literal, several of them rather mythical. By mythical, I do not mean a lie. A true myth straddles this life and another life; it speaks in a truer language, a language of the heart. Still, it is more real than any newspaper account, and it recognizes that the word is never the thing itself.
In Sanskrit, it is said that the sound of the word is the actual vibration of the thing being described,which is why there are so many powerful mantras spoken in Sanskrit. They, like the Jesus Prayer (in fact, Jesus’ very name) become sanctified by use.
This is why one cannot know Jesus by the Bible but, rather the Bible by Jesus. There have been layers of explanations and creeds of various Christian communities imposed upon the person of Jesus, but a keen heart knows the difference. Clouds may indeed cover the sun, but its ... | | By: The Way of a Pilgrim | | |
