Welcome to my little piece of the blogosphere. During your visits to my blog you will see postings sometimes about music. I will talk about my favorite artists. I will talk about events and places to go. Since I am currently living at home, I'm North Dallas Homegirl and weblogista (Yes, I've been cracking myself up for 8 years).

Visit Lake Cliff Park If You Are A Friend Of Oak Cliff. Also My Observation At Watermark Church. And Steve Jobs' Speech.
Dear all,
I passed a park in Oak Cliff (Dallas) that I want to visit more extensively one day. I have passed it lots of times, but the other day, I paused to look at it more closely, and noticed that the lake in the center is larger than I thought. It is Lake Cliff Park. Scroll down to the second park, after you--of course--click on the link and you will see it. (44 acres!)
I attended Watermark Church today in Dallas... after being invited by a friend.
During one active pre-service song, images were shown on a 2 large screens of the church community's members being baptized in a small pool of water that I believe is near the church. Everyone looked too happy and smiley.
In the images, everyone, including 2 or 3 people assisting the believer, had waded into the water about waist-deep. May work for some, but Huh??
I like the Catholic way of baptism, where they just dip the baby in water for a few moments, or sprinkle the child with water.
The same goal is achieved; it's less stressful for the baby and everyone involved.
A "special" segment I have no idea why I'm calling Did You Know?:
Did you know that Steve Jobs' 2005 Commencement Speech at Stanford University took him just 14:11 to complete? In it he shares "three stories about my life."
If you watch the video, watch out for the annoying graduation music, which plays while he is talking. I don't think I even liked that music when I graduated.
This web site contains great clothes to wear to Bingo Night, A Whichever-Tickets-You-Can-Get concert, or just anywhere.
I would say the offerings on the site push the boundary, but this is not a fashion blog.
The End.
Stay Hungry,
