Threat level: sky blue [sky]

As co-founder of the Evangelical Homiletic Bachelors Society I see it fit to hereby address the state of the said society. This past year was a difficult one, as we lost one of our own, Matthew iVan [original member and fellow co-founder]. Though it was a tragic loss for RyJo and I, we managed to not shed a tear, but instead we ripped up the dance floor. The same day that we lost poor Matthew we learned that the Scottish wonderboy, Graham, had fulfilled his ongoing role as spoiler and that he too was smitten. It was wise of us to never let him come off probational status. The other members went about this year without much drama. However, there was this one time when I drove to Ohio to see about a girl, and instead I made friends [and a video] with some pretty cool people. Crisis averted.

And now there is no threat leveled at me, or at the EHBS in general [that I've been made aware of]. While the June weddings are in full plan/attack formation I am a man of the people, for the people, here I go again on my own. The threat level [jihad meter?] has been provisionally lowered to "sky blue" for the new year, but today we lift its provisional status. Other considerations for the threat level were: puppy, baby skin, foam packing peanuts, peach fuzz, zero, baby ducks and soft green grass. I hope this gives you a clear picture to the situation that I'm in. So until next year, or the next time some dame grabs the attention of my ever-sauntering heart, this is the EHBS telling you to grow a beard. you have my love.


Bonus: the winner of this year's "Be Travis' Valentine" contest is.... Ryan Tow, congrats, though I'm a bit disappointed and dismayed that no females applied. Anyway, read his entry here.
