True story: My son while in middle school asked me why I gave him his name, which is an uncommon name. I was in a hurry and brushed the question off saying: "Just be glad I didn't name you Sue"
He did not say anything and I took him to school.
Fast forward 8 years. I get a call one day, he was stationed in Washington and he says:
"Dad! I heard it, I heard the song, now I know what you were talking about!"
"What are you talking about?"
"A boy named Sue", I just heard it, now I know what you meant that day"
.............
I had long forgotten that quick comment, but apparently he did not!

The Wanderer-Dion
A couple of years ago in our church we did a sermon series on the Old Testament tabernacle. Leading up to the message on the table of showbread, I did something I had never done beforeI fasted from food for several days. I fasted because I wanted to experience the truth that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord (Deut. 8:3). I wanted to deny myself something I love, food, for the God I love more. As I fasted, I followed Jesus teaching about fasting in Matthew 6:16-18.
Jesus gave a negative command: When you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance (v.16). Then He gave a positive command about putting oil on your head and washing your face (v.17). The two commands taken together meant that they should not draw attention to themselves. Jesus was teaching that this was a private act of sacrificial worship that should not provide any room for religious pride. Finally, He gave a promise: Your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you (v.18).
Although fasting isnt required, in giving up something we love, we may have a deeper experience of the God we love. He rewards us with Himself.

Spiders And Snakes
I remember when Mary Lou said
“You wanna walk me home from school”
And I said, “Yes, I do”
She said, “I don’t have to go right home
And I’m the kind that likes to be alone
As long as you would”
I said, “Me, too”
And so we took a stroll
Wound up down by the swimmin’ hole
And she said, “Do what you want to do”
I got silly and I found a frog
In the water by a hollow log
And I shook it at her
And I said “This frog’s for you”
She said, “I don’t like spiders and snakes
And that ain’t what it takes to love me
You fool, you fool
I don’t like spiders and snakes
And that ain’t what it takes to love me
Like I want to be loved by you”
Well, I think of that girl from time to time
I call her up when I got a dime
I say, “Hello, baby”
She says, “Ain’t you cool”
I say, “Do you remember when
“And would you like to get together again”
She says, “I’ll see you after school”
I was shy and so for a while
Most of my love was touch and smile
Til she said, “Come on over here”
I was nervous as you might guess
Still looking for somethin’ to slip down her dress
And she said, “Let’s make it perfectly clear”
She said, “I don’t like spiders and snakes
And that ain’t what it takes to love me
You fool, you fool
I don’t like spiders and snakes
And that ain’t what it takes to love me
Like I want to be loved by you”

“Take it like a man”??????Just what was she talking about? Makes one wonder.

The manliest pop song I have ever heard.
My wife just hollered at me, that is an alternative country song not a pop song. Best not to argue.
