"Everything is Spiritual" Video Review


So the Fredstrom watched the "Everything is Spiritual" video that was blogged about below. It really was amazing. Rob Bell has to be the best speaker/teacher that the Fredstrom has ever heard. This video was definitely worth the price. The Fredstrom has already lent it out to two different people this week. If you or anyone you know doubts that there is a God, then check this out! Very interesting and presented in a non-preaching or non-confrontive way. Wanna borrow it? Let Fredstrom know...otherwise buy it yourself from www.everythingisspiritual.com (click on title). Wanna preview? Go to iTunes, click on podcasts, this DVD has five short previews you can watch. Enjoy...

Feed the hungry with your brain!


Visit freerice.com (click on title above) to help the United Nations feed the hungry. All you have to do is answer some vocabulary questions. They will give you one word and four possible synonyms. Pick the right one and corporations will donate 10 grains of rice. So far the Fredstrom has donated over 3,000 grains of rice! That's 300 words right baby! Comments? Let me know.. On this Thanksgiving remember not only all that we are thankful for, but remember those not as fortunate.

The Fredstrom is a Citizen!

You may have been hearing all the buzz about Planet Orange. The Fredstrom just registered as a member of Planet Orange. It is basically a Phoenix Suns "Myspace" venue. Not sure how much I'll use it but you can click on the blog title to see the Fredstrom's page.

How is life on Planet Orange?



The Fredstrom was hoping to have a better feel for where the Suns are, but he's still up in the air. His biggest concern is the interior defense and rebounding. Kurt Thomas is looking pretty good right now. Amare hitting peoples' elbows with his face not looking good. Amare committing stupid fouls and sitting on the bench- again not good. Raja's jumper was really looking bad but has improved- could it have got any worse? Leandro dropping 39- looked very good, Fredstrom is excited to see how he continues to contribute. Grant Hill looks nice..and of course the Matrix is workin!

San Antonio looks good, Houston will be very interesting this year, Dallas... well not totally sure yet.. It's going to take another 30 games or so to really get a good beat on the West. What do you think?

Go Green or Go Home Pt. 5

Check out these sad stats...
An acre and a half of rainforest are destroyed every second.

70% of rivers are polluted, polluted meaning are not safe for human contact.

The World Health Org. estimates that last year 4.6 million people died from air pollution-related diseases.

50,000 different species of plants, animals, insects go extinct every year.

Here are some more amazing statistics...

Each day America produces enough trash to fill 63,000 dump trucks, line them up and that would go half way to the moon that’s 125,000 miles.

During the Holiday season we produce an extra 5 million tons of trash, 4 million of that is just shopping bags and wrapping paper.

Last year we dumped 14 billion pounds of waste into the oceans.

Can you guess this product?
We use 570 of it a second..
49 million a day
18 billion a year…
to produce this product we 100,000 tons of plastic and 800,000 tons of tree pulp
$350 million just disposing of product and it doesn’t decompose

Diapers….

Let The Fredstrom know what you think...
