Sunday Night Unwind, 10.29.06…

October 29, 2006


It’s Sunday night, it’s after Labor Day.

It’s Windham Hill, it’s guitars.

It’s a cup of green tea, it’s the moon peeping through the blinds.

What more could you ask for, for a Sunday night unwind?

(Now if anyone just happens to have an extra, say…$5000 laying around, that you need to do something with by, say…tomorrow, well…)

WARNING No. 2: Definite tired pop-culture-cliché rip-off ahead.

Here’s just what certain 46-year-old old coots need to get equipped and motivated for their 3-mile run when the temperature is 31 degrees…

Sunday Night Unwind, 10.22.06…

I read a piece in the New York Times about Sonny Rollins and his new CD earlier this week. Some of the older stuff just seemed appropriate for tonight’s Unwind…


Bridge Builders…

It’s quite possible that yours truly is the only pastor in America who used Back to the Future, Samson, and an Elton John song in their message this morning…

And every one of us has to face that day
Do you cross the bridge or do you fade away?
And every one of us that ever came to play
Has to cross the bridge or fade away…

What I Did with the Gift Certificate…

October 11, 2006

Last week I solicited the help of all both of you loyal Just Charlie readers as to the most effective use of an Amazon.com gift certificate. Well, a couple of you responded, and just in case you’re interested, here’s how I used the gift certificate…

First, although I wrote that the gift certificate was for an amount between $30 and $50 (USD), I need to clarify that. The original amount was $75, but I had already used part of it for a gift and couldn’t let that cat out of the bag at the time.

The first two purchases were gifts for the best big brother I ever had (who was the source of the original gift certificate in the first place. Pretty sweet deal, eh? Hey, bro, you did say I could use it any way I wanted, right?).

Anyway, my big brother got…

And the gifting didn’t stop there! The lovely and gracious “Mrs. Just Charlie” is getting the newest CD from her country music secret heartthrob/Georgia native…


(Shhhh! Mum’s the word, though, because it’s scheduled to be here tomorrow!)

And just because it was a gift certificate for my birthday, I figured I’d spend it on something that I haven’t been able to find anywhere else. And since it is after Labor Day and all, the remainder of the gift certificate went for these goodies…

So, there you have it, folks!
