A Great Moot

Posted by Bill @ 2:01 pm CST
Filed under: Moot!

It was a great Moot! We hit IHOP around 3:45am, and I finally crawled into my own bed around 6:00am for a quick hour and a half nap before church.

Jared was kind enough to come to our College and Young Singles class this morning to teach on Gospel Wakefulness. It was a fantastic message.

Back from a fun lunch with everyone.

I'm ready to crawl back into bed again.

Sorry I missed it.

Sounds like it was awesome.

No zombies this year, eh?

2. Bill - 12/27/2009 7:35 pm CST

Maybe next year, Phil.

No zombies, but we did spend quite a bit of time on Bigfoot.

3. Bill - 12/27/2009 8:09 pm CST

We also spent quite a bit of time on Blofoot

I also discovered that Rod is a Moon Landing Hoaxer.

:gwah:

6. Bill - 12/27/2009 8:43 pm CST

. . . or at least he was pretending to be just to rev me up :-)

7. Milly - 12/27/2009 9:38 pm CST

Will be be seeing footage of this great event?

8. Bill - 12/27/2009 9:42 pm CST

I'm not sure. I didn't bring a video camera but Jared did a bit of recording on his flip phone.

9. Bob Sacamento - 12/29/2009 8:28 am CST

So did Blo become a Calvinist? BTW, could you remind me which of you actually is Blo, or partakes most strongly of the Bloist essence, or whatever it is?

10. Milly - 12/29/2009 10:51 am CST

Without footage we have no proof that the moot existed this year. It’s just like bigfoot, alien abductions, and a health care plan that will actually help us.

(I think I've been converted. But now that creates a problem. I don’t want to be a Rep or a Dem. I'm an independent thinker.)

11. Jared - 12/29/2009 12:03 pm CST

I have deleted all the footage. Blo would say epic video stuff, then I'd get out the camera, and he'd get all lame.

So: No video is available. Sorry.

Speaking of Calvinism, Luther, and IHop,
did any of you ever see this article at The Onion?

"Modern-Day Martin Luther Nails 95 Comment Cards To IHOP Door"

Hilarious stuff!!!

13. Jared - 12/29/2009 4:17 pm CST

This just in!

There is a video I hadn't deleted. Discovered it today. It is of Blo (trying hard to be) expounding on his denial of Total Depravity. If I can figure out how to upload it off my Flip thingy, I'll see about getting it posted.

14. Bob Sacamento - 12/29/2009 4:43 pm CST

It is of Blo (trying hard to be) expounding on his denial of Total Depravity. If I can figure out how to upload it off my Flip thingy, I'll see about getting it posted.

Again, would appreciate it if someone could remind me which of you is most in tune with the Blo awareness. I assume that is who Blo will most nearly look like as he is trying to be.

However, looks like you have yourself over a barrel, Jared. If human life is totally depraved, then your "Flip thingy" shouldn't work at all.

15. Bill - 12/29/2009 4:54 pm CST

Now that I think about it, I'm not sure Blo was even at Moot.

In a (possibly) related story, Jared saw (really) an apparition walk across the entry way to his parents' dining room. Granted, this happened at 3:00am.

16. Jared - 12/29/2009 5:12 pm CST

Blo is Mark. He never blogs. Probably because he's not real.

If I can't get my Flip thingy to work, I'm gonna prove total depravity is true with my reaction.

17. The original Chris :-) - 12/29/2009 10:51 pm CST

Hey, fellas. Long time no see. How ya been?

I was reading up on the moot, and I have to say that I really envy you guys. I have good Christian friends, but none that I could have this kind of connection with.

You guys have something very few people do. Cheers to you!

18. Milly - 12/30/2009 5:12 pm CST

Sooo we just glazed right over the fact that the moot didn't exist.

19. Michele - 12/30/2009 11:35 pm CST

OK, this is so random; I've been watching past LOST episodes. In one of Eko's flashbacks he steals food from the church and a black nun drags him to confession and tells him to go to the priest. Is this the same woman who is an "Other" and interviews Michael, asking questions about Walt, she always wears a scarf on her head, and finally gets shot with the eye-patch guy? We're having a huge argument here.

20. Bill - 12/31/2009 12:31 am CST

Great question, Michele. I'd need to see that episode - was that Season 2 or Season 3? (I can't remember if poor Eko bought the farm in 2 or 3). And what ep is it?

21. Michele - 12/31/2009 10:21 am CST

I'll try and track it down today... more later.
