Fourth? Presbyterian

Posted on October 25, 2005 By Tom No Comments on Fourth? Presbyterian
Uncategorized

Over the weekend I told a Homecoming friend that I was now at Fourth Presbyterian as choir director. He chided me about the name of the church. His comment was that after a “First” church of whatever denomination is established, then subsequent churches ought to have another name and not follow the numeric pattern.

First Flannel

I think it’s finally fall.  I put on my first flannel shirt of the season this evening, and if the weather peeps are to be believed, it’s supposed to drop into the upper 40’s this evening. Yesterday was another beautiful, relaxed day, with the possible exception of the Furman game.  Not too bad for a … Read More “First Flannel” »

No. Really!

Sometime back I did a review of Market Deli, and a subsequent sign after they had closed.  We were at the Taco Hell next door this evening, and spotted this…   At least they have a sense of humor.   I guess the other guys just couldn’t get it back together.

What a motto. At least it’s better than some of the ones that got put up when I used to work here.

Furman vs Samford

Furman 45 – Samford 23 Scary game – Furman is still not doing what they need if they have a hope of even a Southern Conference championship, much less a national one. 

Art in the Park

This weekend marks the 25th Anniversary of Art in the Park in Greenville.  The show started out in Cleveland Park, and has moved locations several times.  It’s current location is less in the park and more out on main street, but it is set up to take advantage of the renovated Falls Park in the … Read More “Art in the Park” »

Pet Traffic Peeve

Rants, Uncategorized

I don’t know why this always happens right in front of me.  We’re on the ramp onto the interstate.  Despite the fact that there is an ACCELERATION LANE to merge into the traffic stream, the dufous in front of me turns on a left turn signal, puts on the brakes, and comes to a complete … Read More “Pet Traffic Peeve” »

Goodbye, Little Buddy

CNN reports that Bob Denver, who played Gilligan in the 1960 has died from complications of treatment he was receiving for cancer.  He was 70.  Hard to think of him as being that old. In tribute,  once again here’s my four-part fugue based on the theme from Gilligan’s Island.

CRW_1663 In a previous post about flying into Washington DC I mentioned seeing several kayaks hovering around a rapid on the Potomac. I don’t think it was this one, but this is impressive enough.

Been away a bit

We took a quick trip to DC over the weekend.  Even though I supposedly had WiFi in this hotel where we stayed, I couldn’t connect.  I’ll post things when I get a chance, making sure to change the date accordingly. I took a ton of photos.  It may take a bit longer to get any of … Read More “Been away a bit” »
