Today I was at the ballpark in Toronto watching the Jays crush the White Sox 9-3. Actually when I left during the 7th inning stretch we were trailing 3-1. Maybe I should leave early more often. Dustin McGowan (pictured) got the win. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Blogger as far as I'm concerned, Tim Challies. Check out his link under The Ultimate Canadian blogger. Tim and his 7-year-old son Nicholas were my guests and we had a great time. They were able to meet the manager, John Gibbons, Jerry Howarth and Alex Rios. Alex responded with a three-run home run! Thanks, my friend!
As we were planning for our day at the ballpark I told Tim that I wanted to pick his brain (about blogging and other things). Jokingly he told me that by the 7th inning there would be pretty slim pickings. That's why I left when I did! Just kidding!
We had a great day at the ballpark. I'm looking forward to reading Tim's first book on The Spiritual Discipline of Discernment which will be released by Crossway Publishers early in 2008.

Dear David...I will check on Tim Challies later on today.
