I have a new blog platform: http://lucastmiller.wordpress.com/ please update your feeder, my good and faithful readers!

Worst pub in the world!

Where to start? Let's talk about the good things about Killarney's (this should be quick):

- The atmosphere was pleasant, a little over the top though.

Let's talk about the not so good things about Killareny's:

- The food was terrible. It was about authentic pub grub as I'm Chinese (my last name is Miller...yes...it's Irish). The Irish strew was served in a bread bowl. Now, imagine a bread bowl the size of a bowling ball with a table spoon of strew; Irish families ate more during the famine than I ate stew. Should I even mention that it was cold?

- The service was something to be desired. As soon as I ordered my coke, the server attitude changed drastically. I guess the only way to get a pleasant server is to order beer. It took eons to get refills on my soda, and check. She seemed more occupied by the patrons that ordered beer.

- The price of the food was unbelievable! It would have cost me less to actually fly to Dublin for a bowl of stew.

Overall it was a poor excuse for an Irish pub. Yet, those who have never had the pleasure of experiencing an authentic pub really wouldn't know the difference. I leave you with this: if have lots of money, can drink like a fish in order to obtain proper service and love the southern cali version of authentic Irish society, this the place for you. All others (seasoned pub goers), go to the Royal Falconer!

London Worship

I just got this CD; AMAZING! If that's how they do worship in London...I'm moving! Check out Hillsong London "Jesus is re:mix"

Can you kick butt?

This SOOO funny! The nun-chucks is the best.

Leaving

Tomorrow I am leaving for good old Tehachapi, CA for some rest and relaxation. I plan on writing more of my book, prepping for sermon series on the narrow gates, eating some awesome home-cooked meals, and the lovely weather. Yes...it will be nice.

Wow!!!

I just got this new CD from the band (or should I say the man) Maps. Incredible!!! Imagine Sigur Ros, Flunk, and Underworld having a baby; Maps would be it. Ambient, yet rockish. Ethereal, yet distorted. Some of the freshest stuff I heard in a while. Check them out!!! I recommend "Chemistry."

Time...

Today a friend reminded me of something that I almost forgot about; time. I am reminded of how time can play a part in how we develop as a person, Christian, or a leader. There are things that we learn only by time. Some people call it seasoned, in which I would have to agree. I am amazed on how time can grow a person. For example: how I deal things in ministry is completely different from last year, not to mention five years ago. Time has seasoned me on how to approach situations. However, the funny thing about time is how much more we have to learn, or should I say "I have to" learn. It makes no difference whether a person has been in ministry for a year or a hundred years, time still continues to help us grow.

My Lucky Day!

I was battling whether or not I should go to Starbucks to relax and read. I'm glad I did. T-Mobile is offering free WiFi till October 31st, due to the fires that have been destroying our beautiful Southern California land. Yes, folks you read it right...T-Mobile is offering free WiFi at select Starbucks locations. Stop my heart!
