It's a slow fade

I'm sitting in the airport working, listening to my iPod and I heard this song - the message is pretty simple, but powerful and widely applicable in faith, principles, life in general.

"Slow Fade"

Be careful little eyes what you see
It's the second glance that ties your hands as darkness pulls the strings
Be careful little feet where you go
For it's the little feet behind you that are sure to follow

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
It's a slow fade, it's a slow fade

Be careful little ears what you hear
When flattery leads to compromise, the end is always near
Be careful little lips what you say
For empty words and promises lead broken hearts astray

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day

The journey from your mind to your hands
Is shorter than you're thinking
Be careful if you think you stand
You just might be sinking

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
Daddies never crumble in a day
Families never crumble in a day

Oh be careful little eyes what see
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
For the Father up above is looking down in love
Oh be careful little eyes what you see 

Taking over the world...

What - are you crazy??

What - are you crazy??

This from my 3 year old daughter as I lifted her to wash her hands at the sink. I guess she thought the water was a little too hot, but really, where did that response come from? When my toddlers question my sanity, I do have to wonder. Ahh they grow up so quickly. :)

Via Packets

I really enjoy my Starbucks VIA ready brew coffee and now they have gone and made it even better! For those of you who don't know, I spend a lot of time traveling for work and don't always have access to good coffee - enter stage left... VIA packets from Starbucks. They are little packets of micro ground coffee that taste as good as a brewed cup and better than most. I just saw that they now have iced coffee, just in time for summer.

Droid family

With the upcoming release of the new Motorola Droid, I am even more tempted to make the move. I have to get an official Corporate liable Blackberry, potentially replacing my current device and I have to decide if I am going to carry 2 devices to get a chance to play with the new droid platforms or if I will stick with my single corporate phone as my only device. Ahhh decisions...

Office 2010 Spell Check

I use office 2010 and rely on spell check to catch any spelling errors in my documents. I realized recently that the feature was not working since I upgraded and no matter what I tried, it would not turn on correctly. I had all the settings correct, but it turns out it was a rouge registry entry. I found the solution here: http://forums.techarena.in/ms-office-support/877476.htm.

I had to delete the registry key located at: "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools\1.0\Override and like magic - the spell check started working again. Why on earth would that happen? Does anyone really not want spell check enabled?
