mashup: nelson mandela vs. t-pain

it is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, oh baby girl, what's your name? let me talk to you, let me buy you a drank especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. shawty what you think 'bout that, i'll be in the gray cadillac you take the front line when there is danger. then people will appreciate your leadership. we in the bed like ooh ooh ooh we in the bed like ooh ooh ooh.

fear-less

last night, the devil came and planted a seed in my heart
which unexpectedly began to take root...
from one moment to the next, i suddenly found myself in a panic
for the love and healing which had carefully been planted
was now being choked by this weed of fear.

i tried to pull it out- holding on as tight as i could
but the weed was now too strong for me to pull out on my own.
"Lord," i cried, "please stand by my side,
and give me the strength to pull out this weed of fear.
and forgive me, i pray, for allowing this day,
the fear to take root in my heart."

when its late at night,
its important to look at yourself in the mirror
now, take a good hard look
and think about everything you did today
now, if you drank a bloody mary- talk about it with yourself
mention the bloody mary three times
three's the charm!
and then wait for some important self realization

this is what happened


i don't remember if it was thursday or saturday... probably saturday cuz that's a weekend... yeah that makes sense. k so it was last saturday (true story) and i was helping my uncle with a cub scout fundraiser breakfast. i was in it for the orange juice and then when i got there they just had that mcdonald's orange drink crap.

everything was normal and it was like any other breakfast until the webelos decided to have a pancake eating contest. i'm pretty sure that doug the thick tongan kid challenged everyone thinking he could win easy. well, whether or not he started it, doug got off to an early lead by smashing four real quick. i think most of the people watching assumed that would be unchallengeable for the rest of the eleven year olds but then (and i swear this really happened) we noticed that aaron at the edge of the table had finished five and started another.

now aaron can't weigh more than sixty pounds with his pockets full of nickels, but this shy little skinny kid never even looked up from the table until he had eaten one hundred and forty eight pancakes. i'm not even joking about this. dead serious. one hundred and forty eight pancakes and then he stood up and axe-kicked the table in half.

doug finished with six. six compared to one hundred forty eight is like a rash compared to anthrax. anthrax can kill you easy. way easier than swine flu.
