Humilty



We are going to go through this book for our small group. It should be a good discussion type book. The author has a funny line in the forward about how stupid he was to start writing a book about humility- but by God's grace he made it through.

Rocket






* Flies to 300 meters (1000 feet)!

The Alpha III is an E2X Starter Set. More people have started with this timeless rocket than any other in the history of the world! Suitable for ages 10 and up. Features a bright molded one piece fin unit and nose cone and engines for two fantastic parachute recovered flights.

How the Alpha III works is: 1.) Electrically ignited rocket engine provides rocket lift-off. 2.) Rocket accelerates and gains altitude. 3.) Rocket continues to climb during coast phase. 4.) Model reaches peak altitude. Ejection charge activates recovery system. 5.) Recovery system is deployed. 6.) Rocket returns gently to Earth! Replace the engine, igniter and recovery wadding and be ready to launch again!

Complete starter set includes: Alpha III model rocket kit, Electron Beam electrical launch controller, Porta-Pad II launch pad, two model rocket engines, recovery wadding, complete instructions, rocketeer's guide, reusable carrying case and safety code/full one year warranty.


Yes- It's good to have boys!

Here's my card



So I've finally broken down and ordered business cards. I'm rather sheepish about it. Someone in the church was kind enough to put it together and send the file off to the printer. I've been asked several times if I have one- and been able to say no. No longer. There has got to be some sort of business card etiquette that I've been missing out on for years now. I get handed cards often enough but rarely at my request. I'm sure there is some article out there detailing the business card exchange ritual. If you know of one- point me to it- or write one and send it to me. There has got to be some protocol that distinguishes you from the cold call timeshare salesman that just happens to be in the area and wanted to drop his card off. Maybe not- oh well, here's my card.
