Bienvenue en New Orleans!

INSPIRE was born out of a dream that God would take a bunch of average, ordinary, messed-up people & do something great through them. We want to live like Jesus, for Jesus... No games. No hype, No pretense. Just Jesus. We ain't there yet, by a long shot, but we'd love for you to take the journey with us! - Pastor Jeff

Jumping Up & Down On My Spinal Chord

Today after church, Jennifer & I were watching House Hunters on HGTV. We like that show.

Usually.

But today, the couple the show spotlighted were from an area of the country where I used to live.

Having been in the military, I've lived in quite a few places. There were some things about each place that I really liked. And there were things about each place that I...

Didn't.

And--like the others--the area on this episode had some things about it that I really liked.

BUT...

One of the things that I did NOT like about this area was the accent people spoke with.

And I really didn't like it.

REALLY.

Holy cow... That accent!

I recognize it every time I hear it.

Some accents are awesome. Some are amusing. Some are just downright annoying.

Like... Jump-up-&-down-on-my-spinal-chord annoying.

This accent is one of those.

And after 30 minutes of spinal-shord disco, I can't tell you how glad I was to see the end-of-show credits!

Jennifer just laughed at me.

But she did thank me for moving away from there.
