WCC- February 17th

Friday, February 17th, 2006

• Sight of the Day- The President of Brazil (on a screen), a man dressed in a dress shirt, tie, and lovely black skirt, and the Rowan, the Archbishop of Canterbury


• Weather- Somewhat cloudy in the mid 80’s


• Price for Lunch- $1.80 American (for a nice sized sandwich…my budget loves these prices!)


• Price for Dinner- $1.90 American (for two homemade stuffed sandwiches)


• Cool Conversation(s) of the Day- Kerry, the youth steward who I mentioned but didn’t name yesterday

-     New Insights: It is utterly unbelievable how you can plan for seven years, bring in the top people in the western world in global music, and still have mediocre performance based worship.

• Portuguese Word of the Day-A qui- Here, a lever- to go (these last two terms are extremely important when ordering in Brazilian restaurants)


• Best Advertisement of the Day: A cigarette packet with a government warning that smoking causes….(hint, it’s a medical condition that is not life threatening but it advertised about extensively in the United States)


• Amount of Sleep Last Night- 6.5 hours (this is what happens when you stay up later talking economics, politics, and theology with your roommate)


• Most Unique and Enjoyable Experience- Participating in the choir and getting taught a song by a Coptic Christian Bishop
