It snowed last night. Snow is a curse. Snow is evil. Snow is what happens when the atmosphere solidifies and falls on your head.
To all expectant moms, I’d like to say: Welcome to the New Normal.
Winter is clearly here, but it's not just the weather that's been getting colder. Some recent news stories reveal a good amount of frost seeping into society, as well.
This year I’m asking extra help from God on the requisite “get in shape” resolution. I’m praying for the metabolism of a hummingbird. Is that so wrong?
Here it is, as concise as I can make it: 10 rules that will see you (and me) through 2009 and beyond.

Go Fish's song "Christmas with a Capital C" features Brad Stine, check out the whole bit on YouTube

Christian artist Go Fish hit the road this month on their "Christmas With A Capital C" tour. The tour takes its title from a song on their 2006 Christmas album, Snow.

“This song unapologetically reminds people that Christmas is about the birth of Christ,” says Go Fish founding member Jamie Statema.  “The whole point of 'Christmas With A Capital C' is to show that this annual debate is about something much bigger than just whether or not to say ‘Merry Christmas.’  It's about an ongoing effort to remove God from our American culture.  We decided it was time to take a stand and as a result, ‘Christmas With A Capital C’ has become an anthem for Christians all over the United States.” 

The intro to the song is a monologe from our own Brad Stine, from his Put A Helmet On comedy album, and that song clearly resonates with fans. A fan-created video to the Go Fish song has gotten more than 7 million views over the last two years. But why settle for just the monologue when you can see the whole video bit on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=982br31sgxY If you like it, buy the whole DVD from BradStine.com.
