She asked him to come, but he refused.&lt;br /&gt;"That story is nonsense!" he said. "Why would God lower Himself to come to&lt;br /&gt;Earth as a man? That's ridiculous!"&lt;br /&gt;So she and the children left, and he stayed home.&lt;br /&gt;A while later, the winds grew stronger and the snow turned into a blizzard.&lt;br /&gt;As the man looked out the window, all he saw was a blinding snowstorm. He sat&lt;br /&gt;down to relax before the fire for the evening. Then he heard a loud thump.&lt;br /&gt;Something had hit the window. He looked out, but couldn't see more Than a few&lt;br /&gt;feet.&lt;br /&gt;When the snow let up a little, he ventured outside to see what could have&lt;br /&gt;been beating on his window.&lt;br /&gt;In the field near his house he saw a flock of Wild geese. Apparently they had&lt;br /&gt;been flying south for the winter when they got caught in the snowstorm and&lt;br /&gt;couldn't go on. They were lost and stranded on his farm, with no food or&lt;br /&gt;shelter. They just flapped their wings and flew around the field in low&lt;br /&gt;circles, blindly and aimlessly. A couple of them had flown into his window,&lt;br /&gt;it seemed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The man felt sorry for the geese and wanted to help them. The barn would be a&lt;br /&gt;great place for them To stay, he thought. It's warm and safe; surely they&lt;br /&gt;could spend the night and wait out the storm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So he walked over to the barn and opened the doors wide, then watched and&lt;br /&gt;waited, hoping they would notice the open barn and go inside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the geese just fluttered around aimlessly and didn't seem to notice the&lt;br /&gt;barn or realize what it could mean for them.&lt;br /&gt;The man tried to get their attention, but that just seemed to scare them, and&lt;br /&gt;they moved further away.&lt;br /&gt;He went into the house and came with some bread, broke it up, and made a&lt;br /&gt;bread crumb trail leading to the barn. They still didn't catch on.&lt;br /&gt;Now he was getting frustrated. He got behind them and tried to shoo them&lt;br /&gt;toward the barn, but they only got more scared and scattered in every&lt;br /&gt;direction except toward the barn.&lt;br /&gt;Nothing he did could get them to go into the barn where they would be warm&lt;br /&gt;and safe.&lt;br /&gt;"Why don't they follow me?!" he exclaimed.&lt;br /&gt;"Can't they see this is the only&lt;br /&gt;Place where they can survive the storm?"&lt;br /&gt;He thought for a moment and realized that they just wouldn't follow a human.&lt;br /&gt;"If only I were a goose, then I could save them," he said out loud.&lt;br /&gt;Then he had an idea. He went into barn, got one of his own geese, and carried&lt;br /&gt;it in his arms as he circled around behind the flock of wild geese.&lt;br /&gt;He then released it. His goose flew through the flock and straight into the&lt;br /&gt;barn -- and one-by-one, the other geese followed it to safety.&lt;br /&gt;He stood silently for a moment as the words he had spoken a few minutes&lt;br /&gt;earlier replayed in his mind: "If only I were a goose, then I could save&lt;br /&gt;them!" Then he thought about what he had said to his wife earlier.&lt;br /&gt;"Why would God want to be like us? That's ridiculous!"&lt;br /&gt;Suddenly it all made sense. That is what God had done. We were like the&lt;br /&gt;geese--blind, lost, perishing.&lt;br /&gt;God had His Son become like us so&lt;br /&gt;He could show us the way and save us.&lt;br /&gt;As the winds and blinding snow died down, his soul became quiet and pondered&lt;br /&gt;this wonderful thought.&lt;br /&gt;Suddenly he understood why Christ had come.&lt;br /&gt;Years of doubt and disbelief vanished with the passing storm. He fell to his&lt;br /&gt;knees in the snow, and prayed his first prayer:&lt;br /&gt;"Thank You, God, for coming in human form to get me out of the storm!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Merry Christmas!!

/&gt;My confession: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish.  And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees, Christmas trees..  I don't feel threatened.  I don't feel discriminated against. That's what they are:  Christmas trees. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It doesn't bother me a bit when people say, 'Merry Christmas' to me.  I don't think they are slighting me or getting ready to put me in a ghetto.  In fact, I kind of like it  It shows that we are all brothers and sisters celebrating this happy time of year. It doesn't bother me at all that there is a manger scene on display at a key intersection near my beach house in Malibu   If people want a crïeche, it's just as fine with me as is the Menorah a few hundred yards away. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don't think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians.  I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period.  I have no idea where the concept came from that America is an explicitly atheist country.  I can't find it in the Constitution and I don't like it being shoved down my throat. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we should worship celebrities and we aren't allowed to worship God as we understand Him?  I guess that's a sign that I'm getting old, too.   But there are a lot of us who are wondering where these celebrities came from and where the America we knew went to. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different:  This is not intended to be a joke;  it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Billy Graham's daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane Clayson asked her 'How could God let something like this happen?' (regarding Katrina) Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response.  She said, 'I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives.  And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out.  How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?' &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In light of recent events... terrorists attack, school shootings, etc.  I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body found a few years ago) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said OK.  Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school.  The Bible says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself.  And we said OK. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr Spock's son committed suicide).  We said an expert should know what he's talking about.  And we said OK.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out.  I think it has a great deal to do with 'WE REAP WHAT WE SOW.' &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell  Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says.  Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing.  Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;color:red;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you laughing yet? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Funny how when you forward this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;color:red;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us than what God thinks of us.. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pass it on if you think it has merit.  If not then just discard it... no one will know you did.  But, if you discard this thought process, don't sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Best Regards,  Honestly and respectfully, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Ben Stein &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-113295921185705477?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/113295921185705477/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=113295921185705477&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/113295921185705477'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/113295921185705477'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2008/09/how-u-doing.html' title='How U doing?!'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-103280115631285162</id><published>2008-09-19T16:01:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-09-19T16:05:06.517-04:00</updated><title type='text'>saturday morn</title><content type='html'>hehe&lt;br /&gt;I can't wait for tomorrow mornin... the alarm clock will go off...

What a great weekend! :-)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-6797737954400944896?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/6797737954400944896/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=6797737954400944896&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/6797737954400944896'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/6797737954400944896'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2008/04/what-weekend.html' title='What a weekend:)'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-1555921116132056989</id><published>2008-03-11T08:59:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-11T09:00:43.129-04:00</updated><title type='text'>grr</title><content type='html'>So not only was my tire jacked up, my entire wheel is screwed up... friggin potholes, time to sue the city for a new tire. ppssshhhh.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-1555921116132056989?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/1555921116132056989/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=1555921116132056989&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/1555921116132056989'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/1555921116132056989'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2008/03/grr.html' title='grr'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-8311376885203977105</id><published>2008-03-05T14:40:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2008-03-05T14:41:42.396-05:00</updated><title type='text'>hhmmm</title><content type='html'>My front right tire blew out this morning... it's gonna be a couple days for the right type of tire to come in. no car. hmmm&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-8311376885203977105?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/8311376885203977105/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=8311376885203977105&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/8311376885203977105'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/8311376885203977105'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2008/03/hhmmm.html' title='hhmmm'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-1014256387509142590</id><published>2008-03-03T14:04:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2008-03-03T14:04:36.170-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Wow... all I can say is...

My payment for college was due today, I only just got the paper work friday and sent it friday, which unfortunately is not enough time for it to get there before first payment was due for payment plan. Kinda unfair for people who register and doing the payment plan who has to send it in, otherwise they loose there spot in all the classes. So after being on the phone for some time, I found that I can void the app and check I sent in and do the tuition pay plan online, which my Guidance counselor failed to tell me, sheesh! So took all morning just to make sure I wasn't kicked out of class. But I'm good to go now and classes start January 22nd. It feels kinda weird going back to school, yet cool at the same time. hmmmmm.&lt;br /&gt;I ran like five miles this morning, whew, It was cold!!!! but warmed up quick, I think I'm going to stick with the gyms' treadmill for now.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-3952249878063943650?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/3952249878063943650/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=3952249878063943650&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/3952249878063943650'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/3952249878063943650'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2007/12/register.html' title='register'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-4995173525177000696</id><published>2007-12-17T11:50:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-12-17T11:59:38.833-05:00</updated><title type='text'>well now!</title><content type='html'>Yesterday was a fun day, let me tell u. not really, it was kinda wierd. I wasn't thinking clearly at all the entire day. Kept second guessing myself, make a decision about on issue and then 5 minutes later make a completely different decision on the same issue. Completely absent minded and out of it. HAHA, I went from depressed, to ticked off in matters of like five minutes all day. Made things much harder than it had to be. Missed Jackson's play, that was good... not. I was totally trippin yesterday. I woke up, called one of my friends, then like 30 seconds after my buddie from Tech called and said our other buddie died in a car accident saturday, So I'm guessing that had something to do with my behavior... but I'm back to thinking clearly now, what was really big issues yesterday, now nothing really. But that's my update. so God bless everyone:)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-4995173525177000696?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/4995173525177000696/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=4995173525177000696&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/4995173525177000696'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/4995173525177000696'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2007/12/well-now.html' title='well now!'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-125009497122314796</id><published>2007-12-16T00:05:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-12-16T00:09:30.147-05:00</updated><title type='text'>party</title><content type='html'>well, it was a fun night, i guess.

Honestly not too much has happened. I've been out of commission all last week because of this nasty little bugger called bronchitis. Haven't been that sick in only God knows how long. Sure i've had my occational allergy attack, but this was soething else. Busy working at the agency. Haha, I started training with my Dad, We get up early in the mornings now and go out running. I made him a bet that if I get to a 9 minute mile and a half by June, lol, then he shaves the mustache. It helps when there is motivation, goodbye vermonter abs, haha.&lt;br /&gt;Jonathan is starting up a bible study soon, It should be really awesome. I'm looking forward to just digging in the word. Lately I'm trying (keyword being trying, lol) to watch my self. Pretty much watch what say and do, and what I watch, aka movie and TV.&lt;br /&gt;You know I would really like to pull out my cowboy hat and go horse back riding, haha, that would be great!&lt;br /&gt;BTW, is anyone interested in Going to Burlington on saturday november 24th.

Don't get me wrong, I do have people that I would trust with my life. Then there are people that I should trust with my life, but unfortunately I can't. Maybe I'm just frustrated right now, I just caught not one but a couple people lying to me, and then someone else making stories up about me. I have to wonder how much that happens after so long. And another thing, If I do, what I know a couple people like to call my walk way thing, around people. This is where I all of a sudden just walk away for a minute or two and then come back. Most of the time it is not because I am upset, as it is perceived to be. Most of the time I get deep in thought, and I walk away to think for a few moments. Then I come back and start to talk and nobody will give me a chance to say anything, before asking why I'm upset, I try to say I'm not, but they just don't respect me enough to say, oh your not?  Instead they just walk off. So I just wanted to make this clear, so that my friends don't read me the wrong way like some of them do.&lt;br /&gt;So I'm still waiting on my car right now, but it should be soon. That way I can dump my old car on Ethan, hehe. Hoping I have the car by the end of this week that way I can take it up to drill weekend with me. But we'll see, it's all in Gods hands. Well I'm done talking for now.

As far as my car goes, it's probably not going to last much longer. I got the exhaust system replaced, and this morning the car just wouldn't start. Fearing the worst again, I began to look for alternate means of transportation. I went home for lunch, and luckily Dave K swung by, we ended getting the car started, though the bad part is we don't know how, lol.&lt;br /&gt;This weekend I went on a business trip to Providence, RI. all expense paid by MetLife. I stayed at a five star hotel, hehe. talk about fancy shmancy, although I'm more of a hamburger &amp;amp; hotdog kind of guy. I learned why Guys usually hate shopping so much. It's because of the big malls in these cities. Too many people and just more of a hassle, not very fun. although I did hit up the apple store, hehe, the geek within was flipping out! There was this Water fire celebration on the river in Providence that I had VIP access too, also the Metlife hospitality tent. that was cool. Definetly a romantic setting though, let me tell you, I looked around and all i could think was DANG IT!!! haha. I guess they have this celebration multiple times each year. I would definetly recommend it, as log as you have a date that is;)&lt;br /&gt;ummmm, i'm not sure what else to say right now so I'm going to cease saming things at this point.&lt;br /&gt;later everyone:)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-7874584639026381886?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/7874584639026381886/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=7874584639026381886&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/7874584639026381886'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/7874584639026381886'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2007/10/hola.html' title='HOLA!!!'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-6879349943360557433</id><published>2007-09-14T23:30:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-09-14T23:49:14.170-04:00</updated><title type='text'>the week is over..... finally</title><content type='html'>So it's Friday now, and has been approximately about a week since my last update. Lets start back at the weekend.... Saturday i woke up at about 0300 hrs, thats 3 am. i was on the road @ 0400 hrs or 4am. i got to the base at about 6. All day we took classes o the M240B, one of our bigger machine guns, the thing is intense, I had to pay special attention because i was the lucky one on my squad who got designated to be the 240B gunner. Not fun when one is in the desert lugging that thing around all day, luckily I haven't had to do that yet. the next day, all day we fired it, and when we weren't shooting, we trained in patrolling, that was fun, but intense, it felt like we ran full out for 3 miles straight with our weapons, the sweat was pouring, every once in a while the sergeant would yell out "Incoming", our faces immediately hit the dirt, then we crawled and rolled for only God knows how many hundred yards. The when the day was over, we cleaned our weapons. we were released and I drove home, but i wasn't tired. I met up with Britt (what i found out tonight she prefers to be called, lol) and went to undignified.&lt;br /&gt;So monday came along got maybe two hrs of sleep the night before, well i was a bit tired. I went to work got back home then britt, jon, mer and myself hung out for a while. So eventually Tuesday came, the rest of the week was kinda a blurr. I did however receive my liscence to sell insurance, so now I am an Insurance agent. Tonite was a big huge magic (*cough* Geek *cough*) fest. hehe, it was fun though, pretty much everybody was there. Then I just felt like leaving so then i came home, and that brings us to the present. So now i'm tired and i think i might go to bed. goodnight all.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-6879349943360557433?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/6879349943360557433/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=6879349943360557433&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/6879349943360557433'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/6879349943360557433'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2007/09/week-is-over-finally.html' title='the week is over..... finally'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-2389074038768190944</id><published>2007-09-07T11:45:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-09-07T11:46:57.065-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Car</title><content type='html'>So I'm driving along, just coming back from the bookkeepers office, and I here a loud pop in my car.

Brittany came too, which just made it much much more fun:D. I guess it was the same really as it was all the other years. Although I did do different things. Yes, I did face my fear of older decrepit looking rides that take you upside down, and conquered them, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;with&lt;/span&gt; much adrenaline surging through me. Here's what happened. We entered the gates around 7:30&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;ish&lt;/span&gt;, and pretty much right then we ran into my pastor and chatted for a while. Then we got ever so closer to the dreaded zipper, and I didn't trust it in the least bit. But I have a girl with me who's going to go on it whether I do or not, so... come on! So then I decided to man up and say "lets just knock the zipper out of the way now." So we get closer, and closer, all the while my adrenaline is pumping, maybe more than it was on the plane to basic training. So now we're there, where in line, and Brittany hits me with this, "you okay? you know you don't have to go on it if you don't want." with that all my plans of telling everyone how Britt made me do it came crashing down. I wasn't crushed too bad, but there went my biggest excuse for going on it. After the ride I found it to be one of my favorites! Then we went on the Rainbow thing, the scrambler, and then it happened again. The Ring of Fire. Stinking Jackson said he was going on the ring of fire, and Brittany was going with him. Well, I wasn't going to be the only one left on the ground so I piped up and said I'm going too. Well, talk about disorienting and unnatural, and yet it was really cool. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;HAHA&lt;/span&gt;, and Brittany said my face was like priceless:).&lt;br /&gt;So after that we tried to go to the Maple house, but that was closed! to my most utter disappointment. After that, the fair was pretty much the same thing as any other year. so we walked around for maybe another ten minutes and left.&lt;br /&gt;When I got home I realized one of the most coolest thing ever. I just went through the fair spending only 12 bucks, out of the certain amount of money I budgeted out!!!! External Hard drive here I come!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;This weekend I'm talking off for Training on the Air National Guard Base. I'll update you Saturday night and let &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;yall&lt;/span&gt; know how it goes:)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-6386603860426963394?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/6386603860426963394/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=6386603860426963394&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/6386603860426963394'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/6386603860426963394'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2007/09/fairage.html' title='Fairage!'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-4294760251853785372</id><published>2007-09-06T13:58:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-09-06T14:02:57.692-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Commenting issues</title><content type='html'>Okay, for those of you that have expressed discontent with my Blog due to the fact that it did not allow for anonymous comments, no names being named (*cough*cough*jed*cough*).

I am at work though. It's pretty slow right now. Jonathan and Meredith, and Brittany and myself went out on Monday, (you know, the whole double date thing?) it was a blast. We went to Pirates Cove, and then to A&amp;amp;W, hehe, I felt the fat just pouring on, uuggghhh, oh well it sure was fun though. We went back home and sang Karaoke, haha, Brittany crushed Jon and I. She's such a good singer. Then we watched Elizabethtown. I know I know, chick flick, but it was really good.&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday I went to work, went to the Gym, then to Jon's. That brings us up to today. Work is good. Although I did receive an E-mail from my sergeant today, it says I'm will be training this coming drill weekend, which means no shift work..... hmmmm.... I'll have to call and check up on that. oh well, I will update again at some point.&lt;br /&gt;Later:)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/377390078414729877-2033508184598815011?l=nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/feeds/2033508184598815011/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=377390078414729877&amp;postID=2033508184598815011&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/2033508184598815011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/377390078414729877/posts/default/2033508184598815011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nathanielrabideau.blogspot.com/2007/09/working.html' title='Working'/><author><name>Nate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12906775336326148380</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-377390078414729877.post-3645565543297593985</id><published>2007-09-05T12:32:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-09-05T16:12:53.193-04:00</updated><title type='text'>first blog</title><content type='html'>So yeah, this is my first blog. yay.
