Even worse than being a spiritual whiner, I am also an event junkie and a celebrity follower. I have dragged my poor family to countless Christian events, and the excuses are getting pretty labyrinthine:David: "See the guy leading singing? His grandfather had a neighbor who dated a girl whose brother knew a guy whose hair was cut by another guy whose cousin once walked a dog belonging to Trey Morgan."
Liz: "The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down."
Someone we know (and not always the same person) is always upset that we go to these things, and their excuse is usually just as obscure:
Friend: "We couldn't go to that event because Trey disagrees with us on the identity of Zelophehad in Numbers 36:2. Surely he will face the wrath of God for this error."
David: "Well, okay, but don't call me Shirley."
For instance, we went to Andrews to hear Mack Lyon on October 14th, and now a couple of our friends are very hurt that we went. Supposedly it's because they disagree with him on the operation of the Spirit.

How come you don't want my autograph? I'm related to Trey and will actually admit it.

I'm afraid to ask for your autograph.
This could be a game. "Six Degrees of Trey".
Monalea doesn't have a choice ... she's related. As for the dog, he chose to run away. He didn't like me. :)
You are a crazy man, David.
Thanks, I think.
You make me laugh ... I do like that!!!
Hey Shirley! Chasing celebs still are you?
Come visit and perhaps we'll take you to see Rick Warren. He's not far from the home of Mickey Mouse.
Anonymous: Thanks. I hear there are fires out there. Everyone OK?
