Hey bloggers, what type you are you?

Typealyzer was brought to my attention by a couple of fellow bloggers this week. Not sure if it is me, but I think I come out of it quite well...all things considering.

Apparently I am a 'Mechanic' type. Here is the analysis which came with it:

"The independent and problem-solving type. They are especially attuned to the demands of the moment and are highly skilled at seeing and fixing what needs to be fixed. They generally prefer to think things out for themselves and often avoid inter-personal conflicts.

"The Mechanics enjoy working together with other independent and highly skilled people and often like seek fun and action both in their work and personal life. They enjoy adventure and risk such as in driving race cars or working as policemen and firefighters."

Hm! Maybe I shouldn't be a Vineyard church pastor.

Way to go!

Can't read your Pocket Bible? Should have gone to Specsavers

I thought my eyes were deceiving me, but as I sat in Specsavers today having my very first glasses fitted I was asked to read N. 8 type size. However, the optician was foolish enough to leave me alone for a couple of minutes, so I thought I would see if I could read No. 5 type size, two paragraphs below, with my new whizzy-wizz specs.

The sample text read something along the lines of "Printing of this size text is usually reserved for publications such as financial journals, references, pocket Bibles and prayer books."

Now what do the last two examples say?

Firstly, maybe you need to have very good eyesight to be a Christian.

Secondly, if you don't and you are seeing shapes like moving trees, you need to go to Specsavers for spiritual assistance fast. 

Thirdly, a lot of people must be coming in and complaining about not being able to read their bibles or confessions without stumbling over the words.

Now all this made me think as to whether Paul the apostle wrote in large handwriting to make a rhetorical point or because he had bad eyesight himself (Galatians 6:10). Maybe Paul should have gone to Specsavers too. Who knows?

Who is the most commonly sung about person in a song, dead or alive?

Here's a useless bit of trivia picked up from the Chris Evan's drive-time show last night on Radio 2.

Apparently the most frequently mentioned name in a song is...God!  This is followed by Jesus. Interestingly, the devil makes an equally high appearance at number three. A space where perhaps the Holy Spirit might have occupied to give us a truly triune experience, given the songwriting opportunity.

Does the devil have all the best tunes?  Okay, I hear you, let's not go there.

Having a break

Having a breather from blogging and all things electronic for a couple of weeks to enjoy time with the family. That means no laptop and iPhone! Help! 

See you shortly - refreshed and fully recharged.

iGod is 1 year old

Hey, just realised that iGod has just turned One last month on 28th February…and I didn’t even celebrate it.  What kind of self-indulgent blogger am I?  I didn’t even send myself a card or bake a small cake. Shameful.  Still, I suspect it’s because of all the fun I have been having that I just plain forgot to make a point of it...until now.

For those of you who are still mildly interested in this little known fact, you might like to know what my first post was. For others, let’s just quietly move on.
