J-izzle got to choose the Thursday Night Song this week, and went back a few years to an artist I have never heard of. Which is sad because this song is awesome! But that is why the thursday night song exists, to highlight the unusual, the odd, the awesome, and the unknown!

So I see this billboard when I'm driving around town:

and it gets me thinking:

1. Why are my tax dollars paying to remind myself that the census is coming?
2. I don't have a family farm, maybe I should start one. Riding horses is fun.
3. Why are they using ALL CAPS in parts of the billboard?

Apparently the ad people don't know this but using CAPS IS CONSIDERED SHOUTING! So I put together a radio ad of what it would sound like:

There is bad news wherever you go.  On TV, the newspaper, internet, even on some radio stations.  The thing that I don’t think gets enough attention is that God is ALWAYS doing great things, sometimes we just don’t take time to recognize that!

I found a website that illustrates the sometimes very simple things in life that give us hope.

One cool story from the site:

About a year before my dog died, he started to go blind. When my cat realized this, she began helping him find his way by rubbing against his legs, running ahead of him, and meowing loudly so he could follow the sound of her voice. The love pets have not just for people but for each other GMH.

Where does your hope come from?  Mine comes from this:

Hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love. (Romans 5:5)

To be honest, we started this segment to blatantly rip off Brent McCoy's Friday Morning Song... which is always the muppet's Mahna Mahna. We found an alternate version of it and rocked it tonight! Check it out!

Come on, MTV, you should have known better than to let Kanye in the awards show at all! Here is exclusive audio of Kanye interrupting other famous people to get the word out about his favorite music video:

VOTA:

I say part two because years ago I met him and said the one thing you should never say to an artist (unless you are a relative or work for them)

"Hey, John, Remember me?"

that was followed by his best attempt to guess, which he failed at. Then there was an awkward pause, and I practically ran away.

I see him at his merch table this weekend at Lifelight and I think, "hey I can get a picture with him, and finish this saga!"

so I get my brother to grab my phone and I go up to john reuben. I shake his hand and thank him for being awesome. Then I ask for a picture. I can't describe how awkward it felt, like he remembered that years ago I asked if he remembered me.

Let me know if you feel the awkwardness in the picture below.



Let this go to show you that even though I get to interview artists all the time, I still get freaked out when I actually have to talk to them!
