New Favorite Song
I have a new favorite song, and it has one of the best lines I've ever heard. The song is by Shaun Groves, and it's on his new release, Third World Symphony. The entire album is really good, blending a mix of edgy yet rich writing, passionately low key vocals, and lots of interesting instrumental combinations (like the piano, banjo, electric guitar, flute and triangle on All Is Grace). The song that has me so captivated is called No Better, and it's a strain to those of us who realize that we are truly and wholly saved by grace alone, and that we are absolutely no better than anyone else. The line that drives this point home so wonderfully says:
Man, that's good stuff!
Here's a video of Shaun singing the song. It's rough, but you get the picture.

LSU Looking Good
I knew LSU was going to be tough this year, but with all the off-field distractions before the season began, I thought they'd be lucky to win 9 games. That may still be, but this team looks poised to make a run at the National Championship. LSU has what many teams like to act like they have, but few actually possess: Swagger! This team is tough, mean, and plays like the other team called their Mama a bad name.
Defensive back, Tyrann Mathieu (aka: Honey Badger, TM7, Tryannasaurus, Mayhem Mathieu, Little Ball of Hate, etc), is one of the most dynamic players I've ever seen. He's a tiny guy - about 5'9", 175lbs - but he's fearless and nasty, and he's like a magnet for the football. It's rare that you have that sense of expectation - like anything can happen when he's on the field - when watching a defensive player, but that's exactly the way it is when Mathieu's playing.
Here's a video of Mathieu's body of work. Heisman candidate? You bet!!
Watch out for the Tigers!!

There's no justice here
It's just as well, you know
We've all got Hell to pay
And grace pays all we owe.
Man, that's good stuff!
