NYWC - Randomness

Day three of the NYWC - Pittsburgh is winding down now... I'm too tired to put down comprehensive thoughts about the whole day so here's the summary...

Francis Chan's general session was simply amazing. I was so challenged and humbled by his talk that I'm still trying to cope with it.

The exhibit hall was busier today than yesterday, but still not what I would consider swamped.

I did manage to have some really good conversations about LiveWorship with some folks, and also got myself into several other conversations that had nothing to do with Youth ministry.

I met Matthew McNutt and William Hartz both in person today, where-as I had not previously known them outside of blogs and twitter.

Alan and I had lunch at Primanti Brothers and dinner at The Lemon Grass Cafe'.

I missed most of the session tonight with Phyllis Tickle, but by all accounts she nailed it.

The Comedy late night act was very funny.

Here are an assortment of random photos from today...

The booth (with slightly better lighting)



Lunch from Primanti Brothers... Yes, the sandwich has fries and slaw on it.



The sign for a Korean restaurant and sushi bar.. (See next photo)


A close up of the "Warning" sticker in the window of the sushi bar...



Alan and I were unable to determine which of the following might be true...

• Warning, these premises protected by a cat AND a burglar/fire alarm
• Warning, these premises protected by a cat burglar AND a fire alarm
• Warning, these premises protected by a cat AND a burglar AND a fire alarm
• Warning, these premises protected by a cat alarm, a burglar alarm, and a fire alarm

Either way... Cats, burglars, and fires beware.


Uh... yeah... Authorized pensonel only.




This one has no relevance... I just thought it was a cute name for a restaurant.



That's it for me. I'm very tired. Looking forward to seeing what tomorrow brings.

For what it's worth...

I have no idea what this actually means...



Fellow tweeps. What is your tweet worth?

I think it's really cool too...

Mark Lee had an amazing blog post last week...

I asked his permission before I used his concept, and...

I think it's really cool that he took the time to respond to me...

I think it's really cool that even though I haven't really spent much time with him or her since High School, that I still know what is happening in their lives...

I think it is really cool that the reason I know him, him, her, and her is because of a video game...

I think it's really cool that she and I could meet each other, bump into him and him, and that he could capture the moment, even though I hadn't met him or her before that weekend...

I think it's really cool that he made it a point to remember her name, and that she could share it here...

I think it's really cool that he and I are friends, and can keep up with each other here...

I think it is really cool that he and I can have these kind of conversations...

I think it is soo cool that she did this while they did this, and she wrote this...

And I too, think it's really cool that you are where you are and I am where I am and we are both, well, here.

(Thanks Mark!)
