Why yes I can, dude, man, bro. 
How about them sports? Haha.

Now I would feel comfortable sitting next to you in my church pew (just make sure if our hands accidentally touch when passing the collection plate, that your skin is not softer than mine, or your bro-disguise will all be for nothing!!! - lol).
Is there an actual underlying common topic in this thread or is this one of those "whatever threads"? I'm slightly lost.
I had a rare evening off last night, so I didn't bother to clarify the topic, I'm enjoying the randomness. If 1Stillwaters or Oncefallen happens to see this post, please change the title to "Ridin' d rails".
Feel free to post things that blow your mind, or simply commence with the randomness. At this point, I'm mostly just waiting for Tommy4Christ to come in and tell us that we're going to burn for eternity.
Oh how the threads of CC ebb and flow.
Something that I'm not good at is hiding my confusion. I have a bad habit of tilting my head (similar to a dog) and getting a confused look on my face when I don't get something. I figured it was a good thing when I was in college because my profs could easily see when I didn't understand. In every day life, it just makes me feel weird but it's a reaction that I can't seem to stop.

No dancing allowed. Dancing is evil. All males and females should be at least one (New AND Old Testament) Bible length away from each other at all times. First step: dancing, second step: pre-marital sex. We must all resist the urge to dance!
Contra dancing is the best.

Interestingly enough, it was at school that I learned to smoke. I was 16. I'd had my car taken away for some minor curfew violation, which meant my folks had to drop me off & pick me up which was more of a punishment for them than me, except that it meant I had an extra 90 minutes before the start of the school day. Only those excessively involved in sports practices and the most ne'er do well students were there at that time. A friend of a friend had stolen a case of cigs and then been disappointed to realize he'd grabbed menthols. There was plenty to go around and what else was I going to do with my time? I'd long given up actually doing my school work. The first time I tried to quit smoking, I picked up a significantly nasty caffeine addiction trying to replace the lungful of stimulants. Then I discovered combing the two. Proud to say that the last time I had a smoke was July 2001. I've also not had any caffeine (other than the trace in chocolate) in 3.5 years. Considering my short nights and long days, I think God's done a pretty good job with me. I'm grateful He tidied up my life after all the messes I've made.
In closing, allow me to attempt to re-rail (that's a word NOW) this thread:
My mind is completely and utterly blown when I think of all the garbage that I've done, all the stunts I've pulled, and all the wrong choices I've made that God has seen fit to transform me from, putting me to small uses in His kingdom. To have Him take me back and remake me is unfathomable. I was so far down the rabbit hole that I didn't even know I needed to change until the transformation was in progress and I could look back and see what had changed so far. I'm not saying that I'm not still a work in progress, but reflecting and seeing how far I've come and what He has been able to do with what I was guilty of having done...That blows my mind. It is very true that God has a use or two for cracked earthen vessels. Praise be to God.
