shin sei

last night jesse asked me if i wanted to go get sushi so i decided to go. i also called mat who came straight from his run. we went to this little place called shin sei. i don't know if thats how you spell it but it looks close. anyway it was a pretty cool place and the sushi was good too. but going out for sushi is more than just food. i had the "new yorker." but i ended up trading with a bunch of people for some volcano rolls and philidelphias. its kinda like trading pokemon cards. they were all pretty good. but probably one of the best things about last night, or any time you go out for sushi, is watching the noobie. last night it was kelli. she got some pretty crazy rolls for a first time and it was quite comical to see her sticking them in her mouth. and of course jesse told her she had to do it in one bite. lastly sushi is fun because you can order rolls like the "black dragon" or "white wizard" and lots of other crazy things, and they look even more scary when they come. so it's like a mini adrenaline rush just to eat sushi. and thats about all i have to say about that... we had blast. just make sure you get a snack before you go...you save lots of money that way.

Case for Christ by Lee Strobel

I read Case for Christ over christmas break and i really liked it. for somebody who grew up in a christian "environment" it was cool to see all the issues/problems that people have with christianity. i never even realized that some of these issues could be deciding factors in whether or not people choose to believe in the gospel. (things like NT archiology or how consistant the bible is with secular history) but i talked with a friend and he said that NT archiology was a big deal when he was looking at christianity. i have never thought about it like that. after i believed i went back to make sure it lined up but i never checked into it before. now i need to say that 2000 year old rocks and ruins and studies of cultures should be the reason you follow Christ. there is much more to it than that, but i think all that stuff has a place. overall it was a pretty good book. i enjoyed it.

How it works...

This is the new blog that i (micah) made for reviews...your reviews. book reviews, restaurant reviews, movie reviews, or anything else that you think deserves a review. but to post on this blog you need to post a comment leaving me your name and email so i can add you to the authors list. then you can rant and rage about how dumb some book is so that other people can read and say hey...i liked it. or you can say how awesome a book is. or how much you loved your devil's spit hamburger from Famous Dave's! so other people can go try it and share in your experience. anyway..i hope you like it.
