The Sunday School song, “This Little Light of Mine” – sung by thousands of us church-kids growing up has been brought to new light (pun not intended, but I laughed out loud when Jess pointed this phrase out to me) this week in my life.

My beautiful wife ‘called me out’ on some of my lyrics as I sang them aloud:

“Hide it under a bushel, NO!”

To which she said, “No, No, No – it’s, ‘Hide it under a bush, Oh No!”

To which I replied, “you’re an idiot.” (maybe it wasn’t that harsh…)

She then got ‘scientific’ on me and said, “a bushel is merely a unit of measurement and can’t actually impede the flame of a fire, but a bush is a literal object that could be placed above a flame to cause it to extinguish.” (okay, she didn’t really say these exact words, but you get the picture…)

To which I replied, “you’re an idiot.”

To which she replied, “Google-it.” (the solution to ALL marital strife)

A quick Google-search (more-importantly, a Wikipedia article) reveals that sure-enough a “bushel” is merely a unit of measurement, and not synonymous with the bushel basked we’re all familiar making with our cupped hand while singing this song. I also found enough lyrics defending BOTH of our “right answers” via Google.

So, stevansheets.com readership… what is it? Is it:

01. “Hide it under a bushel, NO! I’m gonna let it shine.”
02. “Hide it under a bush, Oh NO! I’m gonna let it shine.”
03. “Hide it under a bushel basket lined with fire-retardant fabric, Oh NO! I’m gonna let it shine.”

Please advise this twenty-something who’s childhood theology is based upon your answer to this question.

Even with more than 150,000 voting for him, Huck didn’t win in Wisconsin last night. Even my overtly-Republican county of Waukesha gave a majority of their votes to McCain.

Huckabee is still standing firm and we supporters are praying that McCain doesn’t get the 1,191 delegates he needs to clinch a nomination before the Republican National Convention.

Now it’s up to YOUR states!

Registered and voted in the Wisconsin Primary this morning here in the cold tundra known as Mukwonago!

Praying for Wisconsin voters all day today that they would make wise decisions in turning out and voting for the True Conservative to give the GOP a heads up about what we stand for!

I LIKE MIKE!

Fond memories of Sunday evenings as a kid with a bowl of popcorn and Knight Rider on the console television flooded to the front of my mind during the opening sequences of NBC’s new Knight Rider re-make.

That is until the first scene included an alluded-to same-sex love scene.

So much for family values being one of the pro’s of the new show.

Poor acting, awkward moments, and a shape-shifting car that is way-less realistic than the KITT I grew up with left us hoping for more – WAY more. NBC is kind of sketchy as to whether this is going to be a regular series it seems. I haven’t read enough to see what the new Knight Rider ratings were, but I can assume that the cameo by David Hasselhoff probably made it’s way to YouTube by now!

You want a heart-pounding, sweat-inducing, gut-wrenching, nervous-making television show to enjoy with your spouse? Season 3 of Prison Break was all of that and more for Jess and I.

Tonight was the season finale. Of course it was open-ended – I expected nothing less. There were a few curve balls thrown my way even though I thought I had it “all figured out” – which makes me all the more excited about the start of Season 4.

Confession: Jess and I have NOT seen even PART of season’s one or two and are STILL in-the-know-enough to enjoy this entire season. If anyone ‘local’ has access to the Season 1 & 2 DVD sets, please let us know!

The premise of Season 3 is exactly as it sounds – breaking out of prison – in Panama. It’s hot, it’s difficult, and of-course dangerous. We’re hooked and hoping for numerous seasons following this one!
