walking in a winter wonderland

aparently kentucky has been on the news today because of ice storms. yes there are power outages, but not in on campus. Yes we had an ice storm followed by snow and campus did close yesterday.

But really it is just beautiful. the sun was shining yesterday, and the way that everything looks, well several people said they thought they had woke up in Narnia. see for your self:

Do you Hear the people Sing?

I have been on a kick to listen to Les Miserables lately. last night when i was listening to the song Do You hear the People Sing I started to think of all that the song means. with some of the thinking i have beed doing on the idea of the kingdom of God this song seemed sudenly more relivent to me then it ever had been. and i reolized that this song could be seen as a rallying cry to waken Christians to see the world around them and remeber that they are not part of this world.

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!

the people who are singing are like those who are longing for God's freedom. Those whom Jesus was talking about when he said the Fields are white for Harvest. when your heart beats after God and what God is doing in our world your heart becomes one of the drums in the war between the kingdom of Darkness and the Kingdom of God.

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free!

this verse is like one christian who is living in the battle asking his brothers and sisters if they will join him. Lets face it there is a war going on around us a war between angles and Deamons over the souls of men. and because we are the children of God we are part of this Crusade. the question is will we be stronge to stand in the battle (at the barricade) to fight to see the kingdom come.

Will you give all you can give
So that our banner may advance
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs
Will water the meadows of France!

To join the battle front of this war is coastly. there have always been martyrs, there will always be martyrs. thier blood is the water of the church. so the question is are you willing to give all so that the banner of God may cover those who are not yet found in his fold?

Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men? It is the music of a people Who will not be slaves again! When the beating of your heart Echoes the beating of the drums There is a life about to start When tomorrow comes!

Vampires and Zombies.

So most people who talk to me learn fairly quickly that i have a small obsetion with vampires. I also am pretty spacific in the vampire mithos that i perfer. most people who have talked to me a twilight have heard it and that is not the point of this post so enough introduction and on to the real point.

I was winding down yesterday by checking to see if any of the comics i read had updated and low and behold my favorite artist and writer on the net, Sarah Ellerton was going to be illistrating a new graphic novel. I found Sarah Ellerton from the link page on the Earthsong site back when she was working on Interlock, now she is working through her project Pheonix Requiem (both of which you can find by following the seraph's inn link under comics i read). So I went to check out the new project and the art as to be expected is phinominal, (I mean seariously it's Sarah Ellerton.) But i had never heard of Bobby Crosby so I followed some of the links to his other stuff and found this:



now usally i am not a big Zomby person. but the small discription i found about this comic said the following:

"After Zombies take over the Earth, Vampires must protect the last surving humans so they can live off thier blood."

and I though to myself hum... well i just want to know if this guy is any good at his writing. and you know what i spent the rest of the night reading his comic. the whole idea is one that i must say someone should have thought of before. it makes sence if a world can have a Zombie apocolips why couldn't there be vampires? the FBIVZ does put the two mosters together.

Serously if you like vampires yous should check it out, and if you like zombies i bet you will like this. and if you are fed up with Zombie movies and stories with no new twists or even interesting story lines give it a chance. Bobby and the aritist Owen Gieni will not disapoint. after reading all of the story that has been posted online so far i must say they have given some interesting twists that i was suprised and caught off guard by. I am dieing to put some spoilers in at this point but bobby does that enough on his own. i will just say this, there is a really cool link that bobby puts in the story between Zombies and Vampires, way more then they just both happen to share the same food suply.
