I miss you people. But I have one last paper to do, and it's due Tuesday. Grr.

Need help, bunnyfire? What's the topic? We can write it as a group.

I'll take the second sentence of every other paragraph.

Finish your paper, and then we'll work on your aim.

Eid: :)

Bunnyfire, we'll have a party on Wednesday; you bring the egg foo yung, I'll bring the singing bears!

I must be tired. I read that last sentence as your bringing the singing beans.

I had chili yesterday, and am in no need for any more song at the moment...;-)

As to the paper, I just have to condense what I learned in a leadership course and spit it out in a 5 to 6 page paper explaining how I would run a worship team.

Once I finish this course I will be a certified catherd, I'm telling ya.

Oye.

I once took a Dale Canargie Leadership Course because our newly corporate company demanded it ... and I blew the room away (Paul Simon reference). But that's only because I'm good (very good) at real stuff (like, real caring, real connection, real feelings, real talking, real concern). What they were teaching mostly sucked donkey dicks.

And after eventually having a few spats with the instructor, I left - at risk of my job, in fact. But I didn't get fired for that, and in fact never got fired at all, for anything I did... some of which was much worse.

Anyway, I'm not criticizing; I'm saying that what you might learn in a leadership course sometimes may seem anti ethical to what you really believe in, in terms of how to act and live. If so, go with your own inclination, because those teacher guys are really for people without a clue. Truly, you should probably be teaching them.

Taz, the course is called Theology of Leadership. Most of it is actually really right on. And at my age and experience serving under church leaders, I have plenty of mental examples of what NOT to do. Seriously, if people actually do most of what I am learning, it'll work. If some people had done in the past what I am learning now, life would have been much better at the time. ;-)

Dale Carnegie? Ew. My husband is in real estate and sometimes he brings home these sales books, etc that just make me wanna puke. (Good reading, if you want to build your own sales resistance, I tell you.) If my husband were anything like what those books say he should be, I'd puke.

Two pukes in one post? Man, I gotta proofread more.
