or my BFF's husband, it provides a great social outlet with a bunch of people who don't drink more than something that seems "preachy", if that is what your brother is afraid of

I know a lot of people who are turned off by the "higher power"stuff, but what that means varies HUGELY by locality. Some meetings are All God All The Time and some just assume that by "higher power" you mean the Flying Spaghetti Monster and that's fine.

Our DVR consistently cuts off the last 30 seconds of every preview for the next Leverage and SPN, and it makes me crazy. But it REALLY makes DH froth at the mouth. It's cute.

Don't the networks deliberately schedule shows to run over to foil time-shifting? It seems really counter-productive to me - I'm way more likely to go find the last two minutes online than I am to watch it live the next week.

The "higher power" stuff would turn my vaguely Satanist brother into PURE RAGE. Plus, like me, he's not a joiner.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Yeah, if he's not a joiner, I don't think it would be helpful to him in the same way it is to BFF's Husband, who is TOTALLY a super joiner.

Ben said one of the kids at school who participates in Young Life asked him if he wanted to come to a meeting, and Ben told him he had plans with Satan that day.

And on that note, this game looks sort of awesome.

When I was a kid, I was totally fascinated by church, because my family didn't go. I used to play with my grandma's missal and pretend to have church! I would also say the rosary. It was kind of weird. And then when I was 12, my babysitters family were part of (and possibly are still part of) this sort of freaky home church called "The Way". I'm not sure if it was really weird or not, but I attended some meetings, and they spoke in tongues, which was a little surprising from people who seemed hippy-dippy.

That drives me so crazy. Something will run til 8:01 and effectively blocks me from having a season pass to something in the 8:PM slot.
