Celebrate Tossmas with Me

Check out the video of "Merry Tossmas" above. Originally my grandmother sent it to me and we watched it and liked it. After you have watched it you will understand the following:

We got an email for a "Holiday Huge Sale" at JCPenney, and we said "Merry Tossmas!" Also, the incorrect grammar in the phrase" Holiday Huge Sale" got me. Couldn't they have just said "Huge Holiday Sale"? Even if they had, I still would have said "Merry Tossmas!"

We got a "Holiday 2007" catalog from The Popcorn Factory and we said "Feliz Navitoss!"

What is funny is that most of these supposed "Holiday" catalogs all say something like "Order by December 21, 2007 for delivery by Christmas." Couldn't they have just said "Order by December 21, 2007 for delivery by the Holiday"?

Also,the above message is great because we need to understand that while companies try to make it sound like they are being nice to us they really just want our money.

Maybe they are supposedly trying not to offend people of other religions (i.e. Jews and Muslims) but if you don't want to offend them, send them catalogs for Hanukkah and Ramadan and send us our catalogs for Christmas.

Merry Tossmas!!

Jeremy Camp Concert

Hey, I haven't posted on it yet, even though it was almost two weeks ago, but I decided to write about it now.

I had the wonderful privilege to go to a Jeremy Camp concert. I went down to Calvary in Savannah with my Youth Pastor and a couple of other youth. It was really cool. A newer band called Mainstay opened for him. They were actually pretty good, but during one of their songs I could hear the drums more than anything else. Of the songs they played, I liked "Hang On" the best. This is the first verse and chorus:

I don't know how I got to where I am
All I know is that I want to go back
to the moment when I fell in love with grace
and I hear You whisper

Hang on, I know your hope seems gone
Hang on, sometimes the heartache makes you strong
Remember the first time love turned you around

You probably get the general gist of the song. After they opened, Jeremy Camp sang with his band. It was AWESOME! I've always like his music, but live it was so much better. I do have to say that his pianist is an amazing pianist. The piano can be heard so much better in concert that off a CD. My favorite songs of his are definitely "I Still Believe" and 'Walk By Faith." Here is the first verse and chorus to "Walk By Faith":

Would I believe you when you would say
Your hand will guide my every way
Will I receive the words You say
Every moment of every day

Well I will walk by faith
Even when I cannot see it
Well because this broken road
Prepares Your will for me

It was a great concert. I enjoyed it so much!
