my $words = 4;

Yeah, 4 words, huh Geof? Hey, I haven’t done a meme in a while. Nice to be thought of, too. Anyhow… here goes.

• Penalty. Nobody likes penalties. But they make me think of football. My local Hawkeyes are 3-0 so far and are looking forward to a prime-time matchup with Ohio State next week.
• Vacation. I just got back from a vacation, but it still never seems like it is enough. I’m taking a day of vacation next weekend to go to the Desiring God conference in Minneapolis. Woohoo!
• Competition. I’m only competitive to a point. Yeah, I like to play to win, but I’m usually the one saying hey, give ‘em the benefit of the doubt on the close play, rather than making a big stink about it. Now my brother Andrew, there’s competitiveness for you.
• Spelunking. Oh, sure, Geof. Spelunking?!? Back in high school we went with the youth group one time to a place down in central Texas whose name escapes me. There was a big rock to climb, and we did some rappelling, and then a little sorta quasi-spelunking, though I don’t think the bit of crawling we did underground really counts as such.

Now to perpetuate this Friday-afternoon meme to four others…

1. Dan. He should have something interesting to say.
2. Roger. If he ever comes back to blogging…
3. Dana. She blogs all the time, but I don’t know if she’ll see this…
4. Rae. Have fun, buddy. See you next week!

And the words:

1. Passport
2. Auditorium
3. Odor
4. Enthusiasm
