Continuation of Camp Post
Ok, I am a little more awake now. Camp was awesome. Besides the blessings mentioned below, here are some other highlights:
w00t! This seemed to be the key word for the week. Camp, staffers, administration...all have joined in the w00t craze. I cannot provide a clear definition, it seems to vary with the context. I guess I would have to say that it is more and expression of delight/approval--kind of like a hip version of "amen".
Bach On: Standing around and chatting with staff, someone said "Rock on". Someone else commented as how that phrase might be inappropriate at a Christian camp. So then someone (I would not want to mention my brother Joe by name) allowed as how "Bach on!" might be more appropriate. An expression was born. Click here to see me, Tom, and Joe in our Bach on! shirts.
Camp was very fun. It was a lot of hard work, but quite enjoyable at the same time. Starting tomorrow, we will be at another camp, with over twice as many kids. I just finished printing out the booklets they will use in chapel. Now I am going to work on my message outline and power point for tomorrow.

hahahaha - yes well k3 you are truely the first person to ever call me a trend setter...haha, but you should be proud to think that the ancient hacker lore is coming out and being brought to another generation, that it is being introduced to the outside world - and it is no longer being thought of as geeky

What's with Joe holding the ship steering thingie?? Nice shirts though.
I remain opposed (though unsupported in my position) against the word "w00t". Tom is truly a trend setter, and not to mention super cool, but it is sad that we have had to digress so far into ancient hacker history and befoul it as we have in our modern times. So sad.
Have a great week at camp!
