I’ve been banned from a message board for Notre Dame basketball. Now for my friend Ralph, his world would stop if he couldn’t go to www.goheels.com. But my world is still spinning. I was banned for defending Tyler Hansbrough and because he didn’t believe my name was really Cam Corder. Can you believe that?
I was banned by ElKabong. That is the call name for the keeper of the message board. El K, as his minions so affectionately call him, is really Mike Coffey. He is some mid 30’s computer geek that spends 22 hours a day scouring the world-wide-web, lusting after info to satisfy his man crush on 17 year old hoop stars that he dreams about playing for the Irish. Can’t you envision him staring blurry eyed at his computer screen in his boxer shorts, eating bags of Doritos and yelling upstairs for his mom to bring him some more kool aid? He fashions himself some Notre Dame hoops savant who thinks he is in the inner circle. He is a glorified groupie.
Now I hope he finds my blog. But then again he will probably attack my computer with a virus. It will be called the Dorito Dust Virus.
And don’t laugh, I am not bitter. Just out of Doritos and Kool Aid.

10 Myths all High School Seniors Should Know
I heard David Chadwick share this in a sermon several years back
1. This world is all there is – I pray that you find that spiritual connectedness to God that becomes your core!
2. Your outsides are more important than your insides – We are bombarded with the notion about looks and beauty. The reality is that we should look for the content of a person’s heart and character
3. Your net worth defines your self-worth – Don’t chase the dollar
4. Your work will define you and your world – This becomes less and less true as you mature….I hope
5. Life is about getting more than you give (Note how close the word miserable is to miser) – It actually is about GIVING!
6. Older people have NO value – We are losing our history, plus people are living longer. We need to make sure we continue to give them value
7. Science has more authority than faith and scripture – It is that awesome connection to faith that gives us strength
8. You can have it all at one time – If it is too good to be true, then it is too good to be true
9. There is no absolute truth – Read the bible!
10. Only the strong survive – Remember those less fortunate!
