Finally ... Crop Circles Explained
From the Associated Press:
SYDNEY, Australia - Wallabies snacking in Tasmania's legally grown opium poppy fields are getting "high as a kite" and hopping around in circles, trampling the crops, a state official said.
Tasmania Attorney-General Lara Giddings told a budget hearing Wednesday that she had recently read about the kangaroo-like marsupials' antics in a brief on the state's large poppy industry. Tasmania is the world's largest producer of legally grown opium for the pharmaceutical market.
"We have a problem with wallabies entering poppy fields, getting as high as a kite and going around in circles," The Mercury newspaper quoted Giddings as telling the hearing. "Then they crash. We see crop circles in the poppy industry from wallabies that are high."
Now we can all rest a little easier knowing where crop circles come from.

Feed Your Faith Summerfest '09
The Feed Your Faith Summerfest '09 concert was in Knoxville this past week. Feed Your Faith was started by my great friend, Mike Williams, and I have been working with him for the past few years. The concert featured three of Christian music's hottest bands and took place at Sevier Heights Baptist Church. Sanctus Real was the headline act and DecembeRadio and Decyfer Down opened for us. My musical genius son, YoungestSon2Me, got to meet and hang out with the bands. I'll post more pics later, but here's one of YoungestSon2Me with Sanctus Real after the concert (I have more posted on my Facebook page - there's a link on the right-hand column of this page).

Here are some of Sanctus Real.


Below is a video shot by one of OldestSon2Me's friends. Matt, the lead singer from Sanctus Real, took his video camera during the concert.

So Unbelievably Proud ...
Tonight, OldestSon2Me asked me to proof a paper he wrote for his American History class. It was titled, "Ronald Reagan - America's Greatest Leader."
After reading it, I turned and told Wife2Me that our son - the high school senior - had written a paper titled, "Ronald Reagan - America's Greatest Leader."
Wife2Me casually said, "Yes, I read it. You've been preparing him to write that paper since he was two years old."
I was so stinkin' proud ... I got a little teary-eyed.
