Ketchup or Catsup?

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6S9WhZ2tw9c]

I feel as though I am invariably running behind on keeping this blog updated.  My daughter came home from summer camp last week and told me the joke as told in the video above from Pulp Fiction.  I am still working on finalizing both P.D’s and Laura’s interviews from last week.  They should hopefully be online by Wednesday night.

The series of 40 Day Fast interviews have been really great, and have left me in a pretty tough predicament where it gets to be really hard to figure out what should go on the radio show, what should be for podcast, and trying to find music that somewhat ties into the theme of the interview.  I’m working in 2 interviews per week to get as many voices out there during this period of the 40 Day Fast.

On a totally unrelated point, when you go to the grocery store, when you look at the condiment aisle you are likely to see bottles labeled Ketchup and Catsup, which leads to this time tested question,  do you pronounce the condiment as Ketchup (Ketch-Up) or Catsup (Catch-Up)?

Awesome Interviews….

Today was one of those days at work where that was the last place I wanted to be. It wasn’t because I don’t like my job, although I DO have those days. It wasn’t because I was eager to get the day over with, so we could go away to the beach for the weekend. Did I mention to you that I was asked to do the benediction at a friends retirement ceremony after 26 years in the Navy? I am looking forward to being there for that.

Those are great reasons for not wanting to be at work. I was so not in to being at work because I had 2 interviews with bloggers that are participating in the 40 Day Fast and I was so excited for these interviews. 1 was with Laura, whose blog I had not read before the fast, but now I am a big fan of. Her heart for the women of the Congo is very inspiring to me, and it shows in the interview.

The second interview was with Brody. Brody’s blog was among the first I had read and I have become hooked. I met Brody last year when I promoted a Shaun Groves concert at my church. That is also when I met Transition Pete. That was a great interview because he has a sincerity in his writing, and in talking with him that is just awesome. He really makes you feel at ease.

You will get to hear these interviews, along with P.D.Ross‘ interview over the next 2 weeks. Be sure to visit the blog on New Music Tuesday for a sneak preview podcast of exclusive audio that will only be heard on the podcast. I have 3 more interviews to record next week, so the coverage of the 40 Day Fast continues all the way to August 1st.

I just wanted to say Thank You to all of the people that have been following the coverage of the 40 Day Fast. It is always encouraging to hear people so passionate about the ministries and outreach organizations that they support that leaves me feeling like we are among a group of people that are being led by the spirit to do great things in the name of God. I am so blessed to be able to use my radio show and podcast to help you know a little more about these great people of God!

Link Loved

Brody’s blog today was titled Link Loved and we were challenged to list the top 5 blogs that send traffic to your blog.  Being such a new blogger, mine is going to be that as well including blogs that link to me, so hear goes:

1.  My Random Thoughts, Thomas talks about his faith and commentary on life.  His was among the first blogs I read.  Thomas is also a great supporter of my radio shows.  You should go and check him out!!

2.  P. D. Ross from his personal blog and Jesus Greater Than.  I met P.D. through the 40 Day Fast, and have an interview with him for next weeks show.  He is also the official sponsor of the podcast.

3. Inspired To Action is the website for the 40 day Fast, of which I am blogging on July 8.

4. Mercy Me was kind enough to make a S.L.O.B of me and add me to the slobroll.  Be sure to check out the cover tunes grab bag.  It is the most original and funny series of videos ever.  They raise the bar for awesomeness every time.

To the best of my knowledge, those are the only blogs linking to me at this time.  Maybe next time Brody does this I will have a better idea.  Have a great 4th of July!
