Yeah, THAT’S how good I am at Angry Birds—27/21 stars. Booyah.
(Angry Birds on G+ has a bug on Chrome Dimension 4 and 7 levels where it saves the stars and scores in some places but not others.)
Honduras, Here I Come
Well, tomorrow I’m headed for Honduras. The myriad circumstances that have culminated in this trip are kinda staggering. My connection with Honduras came from two different directions—my church, who is for the second consecutive year is taking a mission team to La Ceiba, and my coffee, which led me to La Union, Lempira, Honduras.
We’ll be flying out tomorrow, June 12, and will fly in to San Pedro Sula. A 3-hour (I’m told, edge-of-your-seat, grab-the-barf-bag) bus ride will take us to our home for a week in La Ceiba. We’ll be building a shower facility, a couple homes, and a children’s center (a total of three teams will be down over the course of the next three weeks). The team will fly out sometime on Saturday, June 18.
Sometime Sunday or Monday, then, I’ll begin a cross-country trek to La Union. The major bus stops are San Pedro Sula, Santa Barbara, and then La Union.

I’m naturally excited and nervous, but mostly excited to see what God will do with my time down there. Please pray that I’ll be an effective servant, that God will protect and uphold my family in my absence, and that I’ll learn much.
Wouldn’t this be nice. Unfortunately, we’re talking about Illinois, so I’m not holding my breath.
I’m glad they’re moving in the direction of more open standards. I think I chose the right e-reader!
I should NOT have to be telling companies this in 2011. I suggest avoiding ooVoo.
Their spectacular response was, in a nutshell, “We don’t delete accounts, but you can remove your name and maybe, just maybe, we won’t email you.”
In light of their response, I no longer suggest you avoid ooVoo. I suggest you run from them. Fast.
One of the reasons we’ve been so keen on tracking statistics surrounding the number of lendable books in our catalogue is that it means we’re harvesting information about an industry in its formative stages. Almost no one else has this information — and if they do, they’re not sharing it.
