Yes, we all know that vertical stripes on the stole are "slimming"...

It wasn't that so much as I know my Pastor has a stole that is very colorful and was wondering if it was the same one. I don't think it is pointing in the direction of the Gay movement in the church though and I think that is what the person who wrote the post was asking.

yes vertical stripes can be slimming...but only if the object with the vertical stripes is tied tightly around the neck...

kinda like saying the camera adds ten pounds...but only if you eat a ten pound camera...

I think strips or colors mean the pastor is groovy.

Look at this picture. It is a picture of all the pastors attending the ordination of the new pastor at a LCMS campus ministry. The only pastors wearing groovy stoles are the outgoing pastor of the campus ministry and the new guy.

(Just popping in to say "hey". I kinda miss talkin' to y'all. Hope it's OK.)

Hey Jim!!!

Well my travels have been relentless since Nov. 3 weeks in Brazil, a few days in St. Louis, just got back from a week in New Zealand and Sunday night I head back to Brazil again for a week. Reading about Danhead's travels makes it a little better though...you know misery loving company and all.

Actually...my only complaint about all the travel is not being able to take my family to see these different places. In a few years ElderAl and I will be celebrating our 25 wedding aniversary. I am thinking he needs to see New Zealand. It really was wonderful.

Glad to see you are holding down the fort here at TCCL.

He must be a Fort Wayne grad!

Well, maybe Angelus is right. The guy has a wife and child.

*GASP* Angelus and I actually agree on something!!

Yep, EVERYBODY missed the guys this year! We are ALL so sad that they couldn't be there, even though we learned lots and had fun. It still wasn't quite the same.

I've been home since late last night, but I've not felt great. I'm still getting used to this altitude, I think. There was a lot of turbulence on the flight from Houston to Lake Charles. I had a really bad headache earlier tonight, and especially in my ears.

I think I'll be okay tomorrow when I awake.

My ears still pop every now and then or get stuffed up every now or then, too.

My dog was so glad to see me! I was happy to see him, too!

Stein Auf!

No way...the worst thing we would do is crash their pot-lucks and bring the beer...

I left a short message of support over on their board, in case anyone wishes to add...

Cheers,
