The following was found in a church bulletin, christians really need to find better ways of doing PR

WHY JESUS IS BETTER THAN SANTA

Santa lives in the North Pole – JESUS is everywhere

Santa rides in a sleigh – JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water

Santa comes once a year – JESUS is an ever-present help

Santa fills your stocking with goodies – JESUS supplies all your needs

Santa come down your chimney uninvited – JESUS stands at your door and knocks, and then he enters your heart when invited

You have to wait in line to see Santa – JESUS is as close as the mention of his name

Santa lets you sit on his lap – JESUS lets you rest in his arms

Santa doesn’t know your name, all he can say is “Hii little boy (or girl) what’s your name?” – JESUS knew our name before we did. Not only does he know our name, He knows our address too. He knows our history and future and he even knows how many hairs are on our heads

Santa has a belly like a bowl of jelly – JESUS has a heart full of love

All Santa can offer is HO HO HO – JESUS offers help, hope and heaven

Santa says “you better not cry” – JESUS says “cast all your cares on me for i care for you”

Santa’s little helpers make toys – JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and builds mansions

Santa is a ‘jolly old elf’ – JESUS is the king of kings

Santa may make you chuckle but – JESUS gives you joy that is your strength

While Santa puts gifts under your tree – JESUS became our gift and died on a tree

bond.jpg

Last night I went with several peoples to watch Casino Royale, I have been looking forward to this film for some time now, I love a good bond film. I know that many people think he’s sleezy and the films are just full of sex and guns.

Well bond is so much more than that, hes smooth and smart, he gets to play with cool gadgets and go on secret missions in excotic places, defeating evil and making the world a safe place, He is a superhere but instead of tight brightly coloured costuimes he is a super here in a tux.

Casino Royale was a good adition to the bond institution, much better than di another day with its stupid invisible car. Daniel Craig makes an awsome bond i look forward to more bonds with him. This film did howevber seem to have a lot less action that previous bond films, no dramtic car chases with bond shooting missiles from his dashboard or anything, no litte gadgets in his pocket turning his watch into a detinator or anything. So on that front it was a little dissapointing there wasnt even any Q, bond didnt get to given his gadgets before he embarkes on his mission.

There was however a crazy ugandan man he did some kick but moves on top of a crane with bond.

I give this bond a 5/7

go see it, enjoy it, then buy it on dvd!

Last night I went to a local business awards night, I’m noot really sure why I said yes to going, i didnt know anyone, i’m not good at starting conversations with people i dont know. Anyway it was an interesting experience lots of business people getting awards then trying to sell their business in a short acceptance speech. The night had some quality powerpoint displays.

We didint win the award we where nominated for!

towards the end of the evening i started feeling quite ill, you know sudden cold sweats, sore stomach, it all resulted in me making a rather fast b-line to the bathrom where all hell broke out in the bowl. And then again when i got home.

today i woke up quite sore on my insides and some discomfort, so far no more expolisons,.

Arnt you all excited that you got to read that?

A report done by some goverment thingy has recommended that Australia and New Zealand become one country.

that the Australian government should approach the New Zealand government and create a common leagal system, common currency etc.

quite funny, I dont think many new zeleanders would approve, although maybe helen clark could be our Pm.
