Best Things Of The Day

Quote of the Day:

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. If you still don't succeed, just give up. There's no sense in making a fool of yourself over it."

-- W.C. Fields

Song Lyric of the Day:

Well put all your love where it hurts the most
And expect a little visit from the Holy Ghost.
When your short wave dies and there's no one to listen,
Stars growing cold in your solar system.

And I really love to see you like this --
The moonlight dripping off your finger tips.

-- Vigilantes of Love

Monkey Maniac of the Day:

Jay Eubanks is the Monkey Maniac of the Day. Jay just moved across town Saturday, and he gave me a stack of great CDs and one concert DVD. Wahoo! I was one of many who helped him move -- heavy stuff but at least no piano or fridge. It was fun.

Jay and his wife Lindsay have a passion for inner city ministry, and they embody what it means to love your neighbor. Jay is a deacon at Sojourn and is the point person for the Jefferson Street Baptist Center, a men's shelter that reaches out to the most desparate of homeless men -- alcoholics and those with mental health problems.

He's also a great singer-songwriter and concert promoter.

I know that Jay will use this award to ascend to new heights of accomplishment. And for that I am glad to present him with the Monkey Maniac of the Day Award.

And that's all the Day Awards for now. Go forth in love and peace.
