There is this new teacher at my kid's school.  He's a young guy, right out of college, and he's from Venezuela and he just is so positive and joyful that you can't help but smile around him.  I wish I had that.  Instead, when I'm around people get angry and get gas.  I always wondered what the second fruit of the spirit (joy) should look like in real life and now I know.  He's always praising God for whatever.  And you can see sincerity and joy in his face.  It's not cheesy or annoying, just real and infectious.  It's weird how you can be inspired from someone you don't even know.  I guess that's the power of the fruit of the spirit.  So today, let's try to thank God for stuff we normally don't, find the joy in that, and share that joy with people around us.

On to the news!

• Copeland has a new song up.  I'm guessing it's called, "The Grey Man".  It's probably about aliens.
• Jonezetta has a bunch of tour dates up.  They probably wouldn't mind if you showed up to a show.
• Trenches has a new song up called, "Ocean Currents".  There's a lot of yelling in it.
• The Oakland Raiders won their one game for the season.  Season goal accomplished!
