The photo scavenger hunt

Well, the photo scavenger hunt went off with nary a hitch last night. My team (the "epricots") really got into it and had a good time. My wife made up quite a few homemade treats to cap off the night and things went about as well as they could have. Here is the clue list we used (with answers) for the inside group:

Item #1:
I'm an organizer for papers and bills. Don't forget my rollers and rails! (filing cabinet)

Item #2:
  • It's like the North Pole in here. (freezer)
  • Isaiah 1:18
Item #3:
  • You can snuggle up near this on a cold night and read a good book. (fireplace)
  • Matthew 3:11
Item #4:
  • You will find me with four legs, but no hair. People may ride me for hours, but I don't go anywhere without needing to be tugged, jerked or turned on, I always manage to be ready for work. (desk)
  • Hebrews 1:3
Item #5:
  • Before me they used Morse Code. (telephone)
  • Philippians 3:14
Item #6:
  • What object has a KEY that opens no locks, has SPACE but no room, and you can ENTER, but not go in? (computer keyboard)
  • Revelation 20:1
Item #7:
  • On the building you open me up, and reach in your hand. (mail box)
  • 2 Corinthians 3:6
Item #8:
  • Show me when I was built. (year on side of building)
  • Daniel 9:1
Item #9:
  • Your ears “nerve” is used to describe this room. Show me as many "legs" as you possibly can. (auditorium)
  • Hebrews 10:25
Item #10:
  • I'm HIDDEN and out of plain view, made of steel, but I'm very important for HEIGHTS to reveal. (ladder in janitor's closet)
  • John 1:51
Item #11:
  • Could be a decision to go left or right or something with tines. (fork)
  • 2 Samuel 9:13
Item #12:
  • Hula? Hoola? Nope, not with this unbroken circle. (basketball hoop)
  • Luke 5:4-5
Item #13:
  • A portal to someplace else. (any door)
  • John 10:1
Item #14:
  • This is something you can really get into – just don't fill it. (baptismal)
  • Acts 2:38
Item #15:
  • Not a well, but close enough. (any drinking fountain)
  • John 4:7
BONUS PICTURE (let's see all team members'):
I am something that nothing is, but yet I have a name.
I am sometimes tall and sometimes short.
I join your talks; I join your sport, and I play in every game. (shadow)
Psalm 23:4-5

I can't take credit for most of these clues as they were put together by another leader I worked with. I think the Bible verses (again, suggested by my wife) were a nice touch to kind of point them in the right direction and show them different places in the Bible where they do not traditionally go. All in all worth doing and worth planning one for the next club year.

Nothing will stand in the way of the Word

  His Word shall live forever. The Word is a sword that pierces the heart And its truth is a light that cuts through the dark Of this world. Nations shall rise and nations shall fall But nothing shall stand in the way Of the Word.  - Iona I was young and now I am much older and there is one thing that I am more convinced of than ever. God's Word, the Bible, is the only truth that cuts through all of the darkness that this world offers me. Time-bound kingdoms, the ones that ruled over large swaths of this planet and even the one that currently commands the sons and daughters of disobedience cannot stand in its way.  The Word is sufficient in the ultimate and proximate sense as there is nothing of which it does not speak nor conquer. It's light, almost blinding at times, cannot be dimmed. Revelation after revelation, promise after promise, peace upon peace - it's all there and as it marches on it smashes the wisdom of the wise confounding the schemes of the clever.  Where is

tightvnc keyboard mapping problem in Ubuntu 9.04

Image
I have been, off and on, having an issue with the keys on my keyboard mapping to the correct values when using the tightvnc client when paired with the vncserver vino in Ubuntu 9.04. I am not exactly sure what keyboard layout the client and server was expecting, but it seemed like every time I restarted the OS the keyboard mapping problem would come back and I would be at square one again. Well, I think I have found the workaround I was looking for . Hopefully this will help anyone else that is having this issue.

The Boys of Summer

I can tell you My love for you will still be strong After the boys of Summer have gone - Don Henley, Boys of Summer Ah the boys of Summer. From where they come we scarcely know. But they arrive nonetheless with their blonde hair, blue eyes, and muscle beach physique. Their white teeth glint even in the rain and their voice rivals that of the storms that herald cooler, drier air. Their hands are firm, fierce, and tender. They know their business, whether a traveling carnival or beach to comb, and their seduction pull shakes even the most sure and forthright. What chance do they not offer? What delight do they not possess? What siren song have they not mastered? What freedom do they not promise? What spell do they not cast? Is there peril at which they do not scoff? Is there sweet fragrance that escapes them? What opportunity is there apart from them even in their wake? Their season is brief and then just you. Me. He. My Love proves strong during their wax and wane doesn't He? Doesn&
