They say a starving person will eat anything. And I’d say that’s almost always true. As a hungry sports fan in the middle of a sports famine, I almost sank my teeth into soccer this summer. Almost.

Remember the world before e-mail? It was a world where we dropped letters in the mailbox and hoisted the little red flag. It was a world where we clipped Frosted Flakes UPC codes, stuffed them in an envelope, and waited 6-8 weeks for our lightsaber cereal spoon to arrive. The world before email was a sad, patience-testing, nearly tragic place. Eight weeks for a light-up plastic spoon. So wrong.
But with the wonder of modern technology, there’s a price to pay. Along with the nearly instant repartee with people across the globe, there’s a chance that your email will deliver a retina-searing image like this:
This prom's gonna be SUPER!
There is only one way to keep from being scared for life by the image now burned into your subconscious: Invent a hilarious caption for the photo that explains what’s happening, and allows you to cope.
So far, all I’ve got is: “This prom is gonna be SUPER!”
Help? Please?

He’s been on Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel, and Comedy Central. And my chance to interview Michael Jr. nearly ended as soon as it began.
“Hey, Michael Jr.! Thanks for taking a few minutes to talk to me.”
“No problem, man.”
“So, I figured we’d just chat about you and your new DVD.”
“Yeah. Well. The DVD’s coming out on the 4th. And I like doing comedy. So…bye.”
“Umm….”
“Just kiddin’, bro. You just left that wide open for me right there.”
The joke was clearly on me. But I was interviewing a stand-up comic, so what was I to expect? Luckily, he decided to keep the conversation going and the result is my latest article for crosswalk.com.
He’s a great guy, and he’s a Christian comedian who’s actually funny. Shocker, I know….
When you read the interview, be sure to give it 5 stars! =)
I laughed so hard I fell on the ground, lay back on the grass, and roared.
It’s the end of the week and you’ve probably got something you need to get off your chest. Here’s mine:
So we were at the park in Austin this weekend hanging out Sarah’s brother and his friend. Tossing around a frisbee and enjoying the nice weather. A playful, athletic yellow-lab mix runs over to us and starts barking at the frisbee. The dog rips the disc out of Julie’s hand and makes a dash across the grass. No owner in sight.
It was a friendly dog. Just a little over-zealous.
Josh finally manages to get the lab to release the plastic frisbee, which is now nicely decorated with several puncture holes from the dog’s teeth. Our game of catch is now over.
The dog is not finished playing. He comes back over to us (still no owner in sight). We finally shoo him away and he trots off, looking for more entertainment. He starts rolling in a puddle of mud. That’s when he spots the boy.
On four muddy paws, the lab bounds over to the kid and his family who are watching the father try to get the boy’s kite in the air. The kite is twirling and spinning, struggling to stay aloft in the light breeze. It’s just out of reach of the lab, who is launching himself upward with all four feet coming off the ground as he snaps at the tail of the fluttering kite.
The wind fails. The kite falls. The yellow lab mauls the boy’s kite using his forepaws to pin it to the ground as he rips shred after shred of red fabric from the frame.
And I laughed. I laughed so hard I fell on the ground, lay back on the grass, and roared. I sat up and watched the dog drag the remains of the kite back to the mud puddle. The boy’s face looked like he was watching the murder of his pet rabbit.
And I laughed. We were too far away for the family to hear us. But…
We all laughed at the yellow lab who was having fun in the park at our expense.
OK. There’s my Friday ConFession. I feel so much better. Anything you’d like to ‘Fess? You’ll feel better if you do….
