move over, norris

I was planning on posting something new today. Little did I know that my work would be done for me as soon as I got online.

This is the story.

Because in life you have to have priorities, the first thing I do when I get to work everyday is check my 'myspace' page. I know...its pathetic. But at least that way I can get it out of the way and spend my day doing more productive things. Like blogging. Anyway, this morning I had a friend request from some guy named Ryne. I did not know this man. So, I went to his page and found out that he is 15 years old. In his profile picture, he is snuggling with a girl I recognized from the retreat I led worship for at Johnson Bible College this past spring. This girl had e-mailed me a couple months ago, requesting the chord charts to some of the songs on my CD. I sent them to her; she said thanks; end of story.

Until today.

I accepted Ryne's invitation, checked out his page and found that one of his blogs was entitled:

"When Bill Wolf plays Guitar EVERYBODY listens".

Understandably intrigued, I opened the blog to find that it was a list of "Random Bill Wolf Facts". Those of you who are familiar with "Random Chuck Norris Facts" can understand the sheer excitement and joy I experience upon this discovery. I don't know if this is good or bad. I don't know if this makes me a celebrity, or the butt of some youth's jokes. I don't know. And frankly, I don't care. Because I have a friggin list of Random Facts about me. In my book, that equals awesome.

Since Ryne is only 15, you have to be a friend to see his profile and read his blog. Otherwise, I would post a link to it and you could read it for yourself. Instead, I will copy and paste the list for you to read here. And you will have to trust me that I did not write these about myself. I know it is hard to believe...but this really isn't a joke. Here is the list. Enjoy.

If by "keyboardist" he means sometimes-fill-in-keyboardist-named-Greg, then he is exactly right.

This is about 1000 times cooler than anything that has yet happened to me.
