Can I just say I love Panera

I'm studying at Panera bread right now, and I really do like this place. It has several qualities in its favor. Free wireless internet, Cinnamon Crunch bagels (which cost 80 cents), very good coffee with free refills, regular soda pop also with free refills.

The only drawback is that they only have two outlets to plug computers into. VERY annoying on a busy day, but that's why a wise man goes early....

You really recycled cans? I thought you just worked as a male "lady of the night," like Tim.

these suggestions are golden--they are going right on the ideas for funding page of aberdeen's financial aid site.

Hey Yod...have you ever heard of the Bridgefolk?

TheYod said...

yes vanS,

I have, and I'm hoping to go to a conference sometime. I try to stay caught up on their stuff. How did your conference go?

I have mixed feelings about the conference. It was a good conference, and the people that came appeared to be positively impacted. Unfortunately, attendance was lower than I had hoped and it left me with some personal debt.

Missio Dei is in the process of becoming dually affilated with both the BGC and the Mennonites. This summer I am going to a monastic institute conference at St. John's...the conference is about all the new monastic expressions out there, which the brothers at St. John's seem to welcome with open arms. The bridgefolk seems to have a role in this conference. Missio Dei is a neo-monastic missional order...that's what we call ourselves these days. We have been remarkably well received by the Mennonites I've talked to.

You can certainly say more than that you love Panera... (that's a hint that you should blog again soon)

Balthacalvin has started a new post at:

Yodmaster,

I have connected with many of the Bridgefolk. Awesome people. I'm talking with some of the Bridgefolk about having a local expression of it in the Twin Cities, since there a good handful of Bridgefolk here (which is odd, since there are only 4 Mennonite churches in the entire metro area).

By the way, if you don't blog again soon, I am going to send ninja assasins to you. I know that you don't stand a chance, as you are a pacifist. These ninjas are most assuredly not.
