RIP Merle Haggard

April 7, 2016 Thursday

6:38AM Phil
Wow, it’s nice when people care and get involved. Very cool

9:05PM 
Did you see that Merle Haggard died yesterday on his 79th birthday?  Rolling Stone wrote a great article about his life and music.  He was quite a character!

Beer marmalade

April 6, 2016 Wednesday

8:39PM Sassy
Have you seen this?  Beer marmalade! Could be good!

http://boingboing.net/2016/04/06/spreadable-beer.html

Spreadable Beer
“A Scottish craft brewery has developed “spreadable beer,” a marmalade flavored with oak-aged pale ale. To go with it, Innes&Gunn is also selling a marmalade-flavored pale ale.”
8:40PM Sassy
A former pastor of mine wrote a blog post about my friend who just died and me.   She knew her at church.  
9:07PM Phil
How nice! 
9:10PM Sassy
Can’t tell you how odd it is to be written about that way…
9:12PM Sassy 
Do you remember the older lady [name redacted] who always sat alone in the back row in church at home?  My friend was a lot like her… feisty character, never married, deep faith
9:33 PM Phil
I do remember her
9:33PM Sassy
Ah… Church characters
9:34PM Phil
Always plenty of those

9:35PM Sassy
The pastor just wrote to me, “I wish I had been there with you through this.  I didn’t say this in the blog, but I really do admire what you did and I know it wasn’t easy.”
9:36PM 
Heady stuff

After the current pastor was so shitty to me, it’s so reassuring to know another pastor thinks well of me!
