so, the good people of xanga shipped me this fancy camera-contraption that will allow me to broadcast thrilling events such as: driving north along i35 on a 20 hour drive to play at chicago house of blues. the future is here and it’s pretty amazing. we turned off the audio for the drive as the potential of aural broadcast caused gary, our bus driver, much nervousness. he assured me that he could not maintain a G rating for that duration of time. thus, we will have audio only when it is deemed suitable and would be a welcomed enhancement to your overall emprise tv experience. undoubtably, this will be fun. if there is anything specific you might be interested in observing here on emprise tv let me know and we’ll attempt to accomodate at some point along the way. our plan for now is to broadcast when we it occurs to us to do so. happy viewing! edit: the above picture is not the tv module for viewing the live video feed. it is simply a jpg of an old television. to view the live video feed you will need to visit my page here.
i’m still unsure exactly what happened. it ended, heroically, like this: my wife confronting a large man, suggesting that this large man put into practice a different system for the reading of his newspapers while traveling on a plane. it was awesome. here’s how it began, at least from my perspective. i awake to laughing. wait, i should backup. we had arrived at the airport at 5am yesterday morning. ok, now there is context. so, i awake to laughing. i try to open my eyes. i don’t see anything. i remember that i had pulled my cap down to sleep. i push my cap up. my wife toni is talking to a lady across the aisle from her, one row up. they are laughing and pointing at this lady’s feet. or, more precisely, the items that are taking up the space that this lady’s feet should be occupying. i ask, “what’s going on?” toni responds, “would you look at this? [!] this guy walked on the plane with the largest stack of newspapers i’ve ever seen [!] and then starts reading them and shoving them under HIS seat. not the seat in front of him where HIS feet go, but under his seat where HER feet go. [!!!] this has been going on the whole flight. she [assumedly the lady whom toni has been addressing] asked him if he reads papers from around the world or just the contiguous united states and he replied, ‘oh, i read everything,’ with a snooty smirk.” i lean over so i can see. i am astounded and confused. i pull my hat back down. the distant rustle of paper and toni’s discourse concerning inconsiderate people and the associated pet peeves they provoke continues until the wheels hit the ground in san diego.
pet peeve: people on airplanes oblivious to other passengers. random pet peeves? i have to say, this tour has been nothing short of fantastic thus far. it is just beyond agreeable to play the new songs. and the folks showing up have been nothing short of the best. however, my favorite bit about this tour is the towels and socks business. i’ll include some pics of this nonsensical wonder! but first i must tell you what happened in houston. in houston, a couple of the guys who were staying at the shelter that night came along with the folks that were to pick up the towels and socks. these two grown men, upon seeing the enormous pile of towels and socks began weeping. they could not fathom that a group of people who had come to attend a concert caring what the heck was going on down at a homeless shelter. grown men. weeping over a pile of towels and socks. this is beautiful. this is the kingdom of god, here and now. this is simple. goodness. here are a couple of pics: houston san antonio i’ve also been writing a bit of information on a piece of paper that we’re handing out at each stop of ways to get involved with some organizations that are doing long term work in each of the cities that we’re going to on the tour. click here and then click on “be remedy” in the middle of the cross to check out all of the stuff going on in the cities we’ve hit so far. let me know if we’re going to see you at one of the upcoming stops. on this tour we’re getting to hang out with everyone afterwards and i’ve already met a number of you which is just fantastic! and don’t forget to bring your towels and socks with you!!!!
