Failure to communicate.

- it is nice to know you check in on the kids now and again. A change is as good as a rest - enjoy the rest.
I sent you off with a Poem by Edward Taylor.

May you rest well.

PS Trolling at a time like this seems uncouth but it really is a good poem and I can use the traffic. new blog and all.

Enjoy the time away, and wave hello to Puget Sound for me! :-)
Now that's what I call a Philibuster!
"I can eat 50 eggs."
God bless.
Oh but don't go visit mine...
Yes boss.
Pecadillo:
Not visiting your blog is exactly like looking for you to post something here -- that is, it yields exactly the same result.
Schmeradactyls.
I don't know why, but for some reason I am having a touch of schadenfreude. You see, if I have to suffer withdrawal symptoms from the absence of a favorite blog, I feel much better if the feeling is shared.
Chortle. Have a great break, guys.
Now I know what cessationism is all about...
Infallible revelation has now ceased, at least for a couple of weeks!
Marc! You out there buddy?
I bet we can get this thread to 400 comments easy!
Marc was always good for a few deep thought type comments...
I was wanting to get Marc's opinion on the pressing issue of whether or not we would allow Ptero-baptists to partake of the Lord's Supper in our Credo-baptist churches, if they hadn't gone extinct, you know...?
Marc, where are you? I need to know more about "Schmeradactyls".
Which one of you commenting clowns threw the ice cream cone at the blackboard?
Very rude.
You know what's sad? I just spent a few miutes of my life reading 20 comments on a thread that basically says nothing.
Bugblaster, how do you know a Schmeradactyls didn't do that? They can be quite nasty to deal with at times.
CHH - And wasted another few commenting yourself. The good that you want to do, that you do not do...
Who doesn't believe in total depravity?
Stop the madness!

If a schmeradactyl lived under water, would he be baptized by coming up out of the water and then going back under?
I'd comment, but I always get distracted by BlueCollar's arms. It's like he's Ben Grimm or something -- maybe he has regular arms and he's only 4' 7" tall or something.
I mean, look at 'im. He could probably hurt somebody with those things. Not "prolly" either: probably.
Sheesh.
DEEP Sigh ...
Cent,
My weight-lifting coach is a schmeradactyl. He's one tough dude.
I'm turning 50 in a month and a half. What you see today will be gone tomorrow, old age is like that.
Actually, the real question is, "If a schmeradactyl started teaching an aberrant view of justification, would he be considered a schmeratyc?"
Schmeradactyls...pheh.
"Actually, the real question is, "If a schmeradactyl started teaching an aberrant view of justification, would he be considered a schmeratyc?"
Awwwe, you better say that with a smile!!! Ya don't wanna get one of them mad at ya!
Just for the record, over at my b,og today I said "arms like Blue Collar, but a face like Scooby Doo".
I liked it so much I thought it bore repeating.
If I had Scooby Doo's face I could be a star. Most would say that would be an improvement over what I have now...
Hey Scooby, wanna trade?
What's a b,og?
Is it any relation to a sh,merada,tyl?
Doug:
It's Hebrew. Ask DJP to translate it for you.
I'm having withdrawal symptoms. Fortunately, I found the link on the main page, "Where the Arson Began." I get to go back into those archives and relive the romance. Cool! Theological Methadone! I just finished August, 2005 and my nurse is now putting me to bed.
Cent,
I looked it up in BDB, but I can't find it. Is it from the NBG root with an assimilated nun or something?
It's from the Hishmeradaktil form of m-r-d.
Thank you, DJP. That really schmears, I mean, clears things up.
Do we really have to wait until Feb 12 to post here?
Kilroy looks as if he is an Arminian, skulking round this site, peeking to see what's going on.
I haven't seen Kilroy since high school. 'Twas good to see him again.
Instead of talking about Kilroy and making fun of him, while don't you share the Gospel with him?
Shame on you Pyromaniacs!
(Sorry, but your lack of sanctification hasn't been reprimanded in a while.)
Who is the new boy on the block - sorry - board?
Jeremy: Phil did title this blog:
"What we have here is failure to communicate."
Old graffiti-ists don't die...they just sign off.
New shirt at the Pawn Shop which doesn't look good on anyone, especially James White.
Dude: Obey Giant?
That ain't right ...
We're getting a little off topic here so I thought I would ask, Are there any schmeradactyls reading this now?
If so could you identify yourself and present your side of the argument?
I thought Kilroy would be in a Home by now.
BTW, his father is a schmeradactyl. He is not pleasant to watch at the dinner table. He loves meat... A lot.
Well now we know the obey giant has become truly ubiquitous; christians are using it.
I think Pyros' battle threads would make for some interesting phenomenological experiments in themselves.
I don't know from "obey giant."
But I'm wondering who drew a picture of Bob Dole on the blackboard.
Sorry, your permission slip has been revoked.
There once was a blogger named Phil,
Who, in a display of Free Will,
Suspended his blog,
But comment thread fog,
Continued from Pyro fans still.
Quasi-Anonymous
Whoa...that was weird.
Very cool. But only works in IE, right? Any idea how to make Firefox like it?
btw chris, in your nerdy honour, I've added this stunt to my blog as a permanent feature, at least until until tomorrow morning.
Wha ... ?!
Feb -16-?!
I thought we were going bcak on-line next Monday?!
Me 2.
/c:
I won't be able to access this from Feb. 14-28 as I will be away on a missions trip of sorts and hoped to see something posted on the 12th as originally indicated. DV I will read you when I get back.
Colts Super Bowl champs! That is sweet.
Now Rush Limbaugh's defacing the chalkboard?
I'm so confused.
OK this is too much. I keep clicking over to Frank's and he just keeps going on about the gospel...oh wait, we're supposed to do that.
I guess I'm going to have to find some Spuregon on my own.

How many comments can a chalk board graphic generate?
"How many comments can a chalk board graphic generate?"
At least one more.
70 is pathetic, btw when about 20% of the posts are from Me and Dan.
Phil Johnson, not only are you a nerd, but you're not really on vacation from your blog.
That's all I have to say about that.
(very nice, I wish I had thought of it!)
I love the homeschooler video.
Best laugh I've had all day.
I'd like to thank the Lord for saving me and pray for my aunt Sue's corns.
Oops...sorry, I thought I was at church. We always have testimonies after the singing on Sunday evenings.
Today Blogger decided to considate my accounts, so the shell-headed superhero avatar is gone.
Anyway that video is. so. true.
beware.
I was home-schooled and I still can't spell. But I do have plans to take over the world. I'm starting with this comment thread.
Very funny video!!
Loved the video. :-)
Phil is in big trouble for this latest homeschool video; my homeschool daughters are planning on writing an essay against him, as soon as they finish their junior high term papers on ways to improve nuclear fusion using artificial neural networks. Then we'll see who has the last laugh!
:-)
Phil, you are a strange, strange man.
I mean that in a good way.
Jim:
I have a local coven of homeschool families (did I say "coven"? I meant "bevy") who have developed telepathic countermeasures to almost all forms of aggression, and I have dispatched their oldest children to protect Phil from harm.
Since this will be the last thing you ever read, repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand ...
Um Cent . . . it didn't work.
Phil clearly wishes that he had been homeschooled.
The funny thing, or maybe it's sad, is that I visit here multiple times a day just to check out the Internet's most amazing chalk board.
...which is currently a tabula rasa.
Now I'm just beginning to worry that folks will pressure Phil to dump us, in favor of the chalkboard.
/c:
You know, R. C. Sproul uses a chalk board when he lectures. With real chalk to.
DJP -- You're a lot more interesting than the chalkboard.
I'm boring. I need cartoons to get an audience. I'm only as good as my last joke.
..."tabula rasa"...My respect for this chalkboard continues to grow. Not only has it produced 88 comments (so far) but a John Locke reference as well.
That's why I can't quit this blog.
OK, heres a challenge for you spurgeon lovers. Cross posted at my blog, if you have the answer please help me!
--------
I have a clear memory from a number of years ago of reading a sermon by Spurgeon in which he broke off into an extended passage in which he predicted what he believed would happen in the church in the UK. I remember that he spoke of a period when the Evangelical faith would almost seem to be vanquished. He went on to predict, however, that a future significant move of God would occur that would dwarf anything he had ever seen.
My problem is that I cannot remember anything about the actual words he used, nor about the passage he was preaching on!
I therefore want to set you my readers a challenge. Can anyone shed any more light on this quotation and provide a source and ideally the actual wording? Phil Johnson is allowed to reply, but I will hold his comment in the approval queue to give some others a chance - if in fact he makes one given his current blogging interlude.
I suspect that Spurgeon may have spoken in a similar vein more than once, so feel free to keep posting even if someone has already shared something. If you can't work my comment system feel free to send me an email at adrian.warnock@gmail.com
Three things will happen soon...
1. The chalkboard will soon link to an answer for Adrian.
2. Gollum will be the next defacer of the board.
3. Storms will strike the coast of the USA.
I didn't know C. H. Spurgeon predicted things.
I think Tozer did. But I'm not sure.
The storms striking the coast is good. But Pat Robertson did that one last year.
Link troll.

The Sean Higgins video is priceless!
I loved the cartwheels at the end. Very nice touch.
Hey Higgins --
Who sings that song again?
Yeah, next time? let her sing it ...
... ouch ...
Nice video to kick-start my day. Cracked me up.
It's like water to me.
Re: the Sean Higgins video...
Everything about it, is just wrong! The prancing through the grassy field just killed me.
ROFLOL.
And for no other reason than to be able to say I was the 100th commenter...
:-)
Hey Frank:
The other day you were complaining about being boring. When will we see a music video by you?
I'd love to see that.
My family is out of town for the weekend. If I can lay my hands on a DV recorder, I'm going to make all of you sorry you asked.
All one of you, Kim.
That. was. painful.
That video brought tears to my eyes.
Does Mr. Higgins take requests? I would like him to do a "you are like fire" song (he could wear a protective suit) or something with "I'm stumbling over the rock" kind of lyrics. Yeah, that would be good.
Hey, how many comments are we up to here? Phil I'm trying to help you out, so that your comment count is way out of reach of the other guys. The funny thing is DJP and Cent keep helping it along :-)
That performance should certainly be good enough to garner Sean Higgins a Dove Award nomination.
Reading these comments, I am reminded of the old Bill Cosby comedy record where he described a scene from his childhood. He and his brother were clowning around after bedtime, and Father kept coming to the stairs..."If I have to come up there!"
Here everyone is yakking it up after Daddy Phil declared a moratorium. I can see him now cutting a big switch off of a palm tree when he gets back.
Head for the hills (or Big Bear) while you still can.
I didn't post that video.
DJP: did you post that video?
I can't even see it; they're blocked at my current location.
Wow, you guys are more entertaining when your away then when you are here! :)
Sean Higgins is my hero.
Phil, you are so not on a break!!
Phil,
I'm from the Bible Church of Little Rock and heard you speak there recently. Just wanted you to know about a source that may have eluded you. One of the missionaries I support is in Dominica. His name is Dan Shanks. He prints tracts of . . . guess what . . . Spurgeon sermons. Then he distributes them among the islands. His mission is contained in Isaiah 42:12, "Let them give glory unto the Lord, and declare his praise in the islands." Anyway, I wanted you to know about him -- about his ministry. His newsletters are eloquent, inspiring and reading about what he's doing there is exhausting! He puts my paltry efforts to shame! :-) He doesn't have a computer, but I intend to tell him about your ministry, as well. His contact information: Dan Shanks. Metropolitan Press. P.O. Box 2168. Roseau, Commonwealth of Dominica. West Indies. Write to him. You two could mutually encourage each other in your ministries and your obvious devotion to our Lord. Just an FYI. Your friend in Christ, Deborah Howard.
The new/current Pyro menu looks great--when do we eat? :-)
I just figured out the whole closing the blog for two weeks fiasco.
One week of Super Bowl preparation and one week of Super Bowl recovery.
Nothing gets by me, Phil.
This is probably off topic (assuming there is a topic), but does anyone know what happened to the spurgeon.us website? I have been getting an error page everytime I try to navigate there. I loved that website!
Noting Phil's fondness for Indian commercials, her is my favorite "Indian" commercial.
I just wonder how he pounded the glass headlights into shape...
Four days to go. Anticipation is good for the soul.
It seems as if you cannot stay away from communicating; which begs the question...If we didn't know you guys better, it would seem that your major form of communication had changed from written to impressionism; this would lead one to wonder if you were "emerging" out of your vacation with a different 'flare?'
Jason:
yeah, that's exactly it. We'll be adding Chris Seay to the team and we'll be reinventing the Gospel starting Monday. Exactly.
... people ...
I can't wait! But don't forget about Brian McLaren and his seven Jesus's...
:)
(Of course you know I say all of this in jest and good humor)
I would really like to see a new Pyro tee-shirt with a schmeradactyl on it and a snappy saying like, "Team Pyro...so cool a schmeradactyl would like them."
Money blog...am truly intrigued...
