Another post for my own future reference… Sermon illustrations?

Charlie has gotten me hooked on paper airplanes again. As a kid, I used to make hundreds of them. My friend had a book with what must have been 50 designes, and we memorized them all. I can still remember some of them, but there are others I can’t remember at all.
Anyway, as I’ve gotten back into it, I’ve found a couple great sites online, and I thought I’d post the links here for myself and for anyone else who might be interested.
- Jim Cornish’s Web Index
- Alex’s Paper Airplanes
- Joseph Palmer’s Paper Airplanes
- Origami Airplanes
- Sabertooth Paper Airplane <– You have to try this one!
Charlie loves mazes, and I think he is doing incredibly well. Here’s one he recently did (remember that he’s only 6!)
We’ve been making our mazes by using the tool at this website.
I continue to be impressed with Charlie’s ability to put these things together. This one is better than some of mine!
Charlie has been getting into stop motion animation, and I think this one is one of his best. NOTE: This video was made from pictures taken ENTIRELY by him. I wasn’t even watching him do it. Of course, I did the computer work to put it into a movie, but he took all the pictures himself.

The following in an excerpt from a children’s book, Captain Underpants. And the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants by Dave Pilkey. The evil Professor forces everyone to assume new names…
Use the third letter of your first name to determine your new first name:
a = snickle b = doombah c = goober d = cheesey e = crusty f = greasy g = dumbo h = farcus i = dorky j = doofus k = funky l = boobie m = sleezy n = sloopy o = fluffy p = stinky q = slimy r = dorfus s = snooty t = tootsie u = dipsy v = sneezy w = liver x = skippy y = dinky z = zippy
Use the second letter of your last name to determine the first half of your new last name:
a = dippin b = feather c = giggle d = burger e = chicken f = barffy g = lizard h = waffle i = farkle j = monkey k = flippin l = fricken m = bubble n = rhino o = potty p = hamster q = buckle r = gizzard s = lickin t = snickle u = chuckle v = pickle w = hubble x = dingle y = gorilla z = girdle
Use the third letter of your last name to determine the second half of your new last name:
a = butt b = boob c = face d = nose e = hump f = breath g = pants h = shorts i = lips j = honker k = head l = tush m = chunks n = dunkin o = brains p = biscuits q = toes r = doodle s = fanny t = sniffer u = sprinkles v = frack w = squirt x = humperdinck y = hiney z = juice
Thus, for example, George W. Bush’s new name is Fluffy Chucklefanny. Now when you comment on this, be sure to include your new name!




Greetings, interesting article. There are a few people who would disagree with you, for starters take Johm MacArthur. He recently opened up his 40 year vault of messages free to the public. He has 100s of messages devoted to the 5 points of Calvinism, which he strongly supports. He also has many messages on a pre-trib rapture, which he also supports. Boice, Barnhouse, Lutzer, etc. are just a few of the well known preachers who are 5 point and pre-trib. S. Lewis Johnson, considered by some the greatest exposito of the 20th century, was also Calvinistic and believed in the rapture. So, there are a few men who have studied the scriptures far more than you and I who came to a different conclusion.
