Sunday Seven

  1. Coshocton Tribune photo: Dan Markley of West Lafayette, OhioThe blizzard of 1978. A major winter storm smashed northeast Ohio when I was 13. My older brother reminisces about it in this story in the Coshocton Tribune.
  2. Stallone brags about HGH use. Sylvester Stallone got into Rambo shape using human growth hormone and says it’ll be an over-the-counter product in a decade. From the AP.
  3. Frontline: Growing Up Online. A friend saw this Frontline report on PBS this week and recommended it (You can watch it online). It asks: “Just how radically is the internet transforming the experience of childhood?”
  4. The life and early death of David Woodley. At age 24, David Woodley led the Miami Dolphins to the Super Bowl. That was in January of 1983. His life was a disaster after that. Elizabeth Merrill beautifully tells his tragic story in this ESPN article.
  5. Obama isn’t a Muslim. That email that you sent to your 1,000 closest friends about how Obama was sworn in with his hand on the Quran…it’s a lie. In this interview with Christianity Today, Obama talks about his faith, faith-based programs…and abortion.
  6. Spirit of the Marathon. Not many folks will pay $10 to watch a documentary in the theater, but I did, and I had a great time. This inspiring feature on the many and varied types of people who run marathons was supposed to play for one day only, but now there is another screening planned for February.
  7. Darth Vader plays blues harmonica. 1.1 million people have seen this funny video already, but maybe you haven’t. The internet was made for this.

    Obama is not a Christian! He just recently joined a particular church, before he joined the race! I believe he is Islamic, because that was his upbringing! He refuses to say the pledge of allegiance! Do you know what a slap in the face that is?!?!?! I have seen him, he refuses to even put his hand over his heart! I have no words that I can use on here, for that action alone!!! He may not be a practicing Islam, but he surely isn’t any kind of Christian, of course who am I to judge, we should just believe him right!???
