The Sparrow's Nest

In my own words, the Sparrow's Nest is a homeless resource center among several in Athens, GA. The exception being you get Gospel music to go with your visit! If you need food to eat, they will feed you. If you need a shower to keep clean, they'll let you bathe. If you need a place to wash your clothes as well as to get "new, gently worn" clothes donated by members of the community, the Sparrow's Nest is there serving those in need.

As one who has benefited from the services available at the Sparrow's Nest with thanks, I encourage you to DONATE today by clicking through this link, and please let them know Gabe sent you! Ask for Pastor Jamie Scott, Executive Director at 706-549-6693 to confirm your donation, and thank you!

If you have "gently worn" clothing to donate there is a drop-off box in the parking lot at 745 Prince Avenue, located next to Dunkin Donuts.

Films, Motion Pictures & MOVIES!

Immediately, by my use of the term "movies", you know I am not a Film Snob. I also did not grow up in the era before "movies". Even as I write this, Blogger is questioning my use of the term by underlining it with a red squiggly line, but that's what I call them, movies! So, sue me if you don't like it. People used to only see celebrities in still shots printed in magazines before the age of television. Then, they would go see them at the "movie theater", after hearing about it on the radio. Nobody ever called them Film Theatres, did they? The word "film" is really a description of the medium by which we are enabled to view "movies" rather than it being a description of the experience of watching still pictures transformed into motion. So, I'm sticking with "movies", but I am not opposed to calling them motion pictures. For the "purists" out there that insist on using the word "film...

The Beauty of the Internet In the last few days, I have received four marriage proposals from women on the Internet. For some reason a website called Tagged is chock full of beauties who don't to have English as their native tongue, and they desperately want to be in a committed relationship, or marriage. Usually, I ignore these things, but I was bored, so I decided to have some fun. I couldn't resist. I mean when a beauty like this shows up on your computer screen, telling you she wants to spend the rest of her life with you and she’s even willing to live in a tent, then you have to appreciate the humility of it all, and say come and get me! As you may know, I am still homeless, but I am working now. It’s just that during the last pay period, I o...

Irma

Well folks, I made it to the stage for Rabbit Box at the Foundry on Wednesday night! What a great experience that was after dreading it for the month prior. I started by telling them that it was just another dose of public humiliation... and I started off with a laugh I didn't know I was going to get! It ended well too landing on exactly eight minutes with a CHEER for an announcement I had made as to success after failure! Much of life is made of hope and disappointment, but it is also made up of fear and relief. Kinda like what happened with Irma when Harvey had already caused the damage in Houston, Irma suddenly appeared with two others Jose and Katia! For a minute there it seemed like we were doomed! Katia hit Mexico and has dissipated to a tropical storm with 40 a mile winds while Jose drifted back out to sea, but is not setting its sites on the same Caribbean islands that have just suffered Irmas wrath. Buckle your seat belts people! This is shaping up to be a very intens...
