Inca Kola

As most of you know I am heavily addicted to this stuff. I know some of you like it and some of you hate it but I doubt any of you understand why I love it so much(especially those who would throw it in a trashcan Grrr.) It is first and foremost one of the best drinks I've ever had but theres a lot more to it. A lot of my like of this drink has to do with symbolism. My week in Peru was Perfect It was hell getting there and hell when I got back but for the week in Peru I felt like nothing could go wrong, felt like I was part of a family, and was completly at peace. Those three have never happened at the same time nor felt so strong as they did that week. Every time I drink some Inca Kola it takes me back to that. The other symbol is that we as humans aren't suppose to be gready(I hate gready people). For those of you who don't know Inca Kola sells so well in Peru that Coca cola had to buy them out to compete. almost every Peruvian hates this and wishes Inca Kola were in Peruvian hands and not gready American ones. Thats another thing that I always think about when I drink the stuff. The last thing that is remembered is the amazing atitude of most Peruvians. Even though they have very little they're happy and have a really deep faith in God. Its amazing to see.

Purpose of this blog

This blog is first and for mostly to show my love of God and how I want to serve him through computers. Albert Einstein once said "Computers are incredibly fast, accurate and stupid. Human beings are incredibly slow, inaccurate and brilliant. Together they are powerful beyond imagination." I've always wanted to use that power for God. So for this blog expect a bit of tech speak. Another thing I want to do with this blog is to show more of my emotions unlike my other blog http://blog.myspace.com/GKEINC which I use to track project progress and updates. I'm going to start that process of by stating life has been weird the past couple of weeks and has sucked. There been a lot of stress, but especially with relationships. Every time I try to get close to anyone it seemed that no matter who the person is they seem to eventually try to push me away and that seems to be happening a lot. I know I'm not the easiest person to get to know being as introverted as I tend to be but I'm generally a really great guy who obviously makes mistakes but generally they aren't that bad so I don't understand why people do that because I've never given them reason to. On a positive note though I like the new leaders for Joseaphus. They like Inca Kola(my ultimate goal is to get everyone I know to try this wonderful Peruvian soda, I'm highly addicted to this stuff if you didn't already know) and a couple of them are a bit of computer geeks so I can tell I'll be able to relate well with them and they seem like fun people. Anyways enough of my emotions. In the future of this blog expect to see some updates on the Scorpion Pit and SUSSIE(my name for the server that hosts scorpionpit.org) and of course a set of projects that I call The Philippians Projects but more on that later.
