Find the Easter Eggs Contest

Easter eggs are things that aren't in the original picture. They are carefully, or not so carefully, hidden right before your eyes. How many "eggs" are there in this photo? I'm not tellin'. As a bonus question, tell me from what movie this scene came from. Of course, as always, enlarging the picture will help a lot. Oh yeah, the first to get all the "eggs" wins a free Starbucks cup of coffee (your choice) at any Kuwait Starbucks at the Avenues Mall in Kuwait. The Avenues has eight Starbucks so far. All you have to do is fly here and collect your prize! It's just that simple!

Question of the Day

Blog Question

Here is a question I have never seen addressed. If you have, then please share some wisdom. 

One of the problems with blogs is that you have no idea how the blogger is doing. Surf some blogs out there and you will find many have just stopped. Bloggers have trouble with their computers, marriage, sickness, family, finances, depression etc. Sometimes they die. You don't know what happened unless you are friends with the family. 

For instance, if I were to drop dead today, my blog would continue until February 11, 2011 with two more posts on February 15 and one on March 7 (Loraine Boettner's birthday). Then there would be no more - ever...no announcement of my departure...no word of my death. That's because my wife, friends or family would not post anything - they wouldn't even think about it.

So my question is - how long do you think a blog should remain on your list if no activity is evident?

I kept one blog listed for a full year. (I actually was beginning to think they might have died) I was about to delete it from my list and they returned with a promise to blog on a daily basis.

I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. Maintaining a blog on a consistent basis is hard work. I have a dear friend who started a blog and posted one entry. That was it. 

How long would you hold on to a friend's blog before deleting it?

Would YOU be offended if after a period of inactivity someone dropped you from their list and added someone who blogs weekly?

There are blogs out there that never list any other blogs whatsoever - they have it easy. (although, I often wonder why they won't do so. Sharing the spotlight and helping other blogs is part of the fun)

Any comments? I certainly hope so.

The Question No Arminian Can Answer

Fan Letter from Pedro

Dear Eddie,
I go to a small evangelical church but lately we have had a lot of trouble with many Don Juan's in our congregation. What can I do? If you answer I will build you a cake.
Flustered,
Pedro

Dear Pedro,
Do you mean a lot of men are flirting with the women at your church?
Puzzled,
Eddie

Dear Eddie,
No, Mr. Eddie, I mean that many Don Juan to do anything! They Don Juan to give money, they Don Juan to help with the nursery, they Don Juan to help out on work day at the church, they just Juan to be ministered to. They have the "Don Juan's".
Your fan,
Pedro

Dear Pedro,
First, talk to your pastor about your concern.
Second, be an example to the others and thank God for the opportunity to serve.
Let me know how things are going.
Your friend,
Eddie

Any Questions?

When Widgets Go Bad

Honestly, I don't know if it's just my computer or not. In Kuwait, the building I live in has poor reception and my 'puter usually is slow go when it comes to downloading or uploading or freeloading for that matter.

I am turning to you who have years of experience in blogging, clogging or logging.

Not too long ago I added a widget for "recent comments". For the last week I am not showing anything under that heading. I need to know if everyone else is seeing the "recent comments" at the top right of my blog or not.

If no one else is seeing that displayed, then I need to know how to fix it.

I have tried in vain to restore it to it's former glory to no avail. But, things are a little strange here in Kuwait. My sitemeter banner doesn't show up here...but, when I was in the states a few weeks back, it was there!

So if anyone has had a similar problem with gadgets, widgets or wookies, please let me know. I think it helps when you can see the most recent comments made.

Thank you Saint Geek, whoever you are. (I mean that not in a Roman Catholic way)

Win Something Leather Bound!

Answer this simple question:

Which is more recent - the Old Testament or the New Testament?

That's all there is to it! Answer it and you win a cow!

A cow to keep as long as you like!

My Father owns the cattle on a thousand hills! That is just a poetic way of saying He owns 'em all! So if you answer this question correctly you can just go pick out any cow you like! Only one per family. If anyone questions you, just say, "This cow belongs to the Father of Lights and it has been bequeathed to me." Then if protest persists, just hand the person confronting you $10,000 in cash. That will shut him up!
