I sold a vehicle to a gentleman yesterday that explained to me that everyone hates car salesmen, and that because of this he will not give me a good survey. After several minutes of discussion where he repeatedly told me that this was the best car buying experience that he had ever had (but [...]

Thursday afternoon I leave work for BWI airport.
I will be Eugene bound.
I am excited, nervous, curious, and a whole bunch of other words that escape me right now. I am eager to finally meet the group that has been praying through planting a church. I am excited to see how we [...]
