Why I’m Loving On Rev. Gidget Right Now

July 1, 2008 on 4:55 pm | In Inspirations, PeaceBanging Around, Shout-Outs |

PeaceBang reader Rev. Gidget sent me a link to a trip to Turkey hosted by The Society For Biblical Studies. I am doing the whoo-whoo happy dance because this is EXACTLY what I wanted at EXACTLY the perfect time, and how often does that happen??

I have been searching for a week on-line for something that was religiously-themed but not Bob Jones University material and here Barb came to my rescue with this totally perfect option and for that I owe her a million billion thanks and also some cocktails on me when we next see each other. Can you tell that I’m breathless?

On a related note, did you check out the faculty of the SBS? I know! Wotta bunch of babes, eh? So much for mainstream America’s idea of the stereotypical egghead Bible scholar! Smart, fit and gorgeous isn’t what I expected but I ain’t complainin’. It’s just… well, can I keep up with these Indiana Jones hotties? Good thing I have almost a year to work my walking legs and touring tootsies, and NO CUTE SHOES are going with me on *this* one. We’re limited to one bag, anyway. What, no separate suitcase for my toiletries? What if I want to give myself an Aveda tourmaline face masque in Kudasi? What if I want to paint my toenails in Athens?

In all seriousness, though… there’s a focus on the god Asclepius on this tour, people! And he and I are like THIS.

Excuse me, I must go do the happy dance again. Max will join me, as he’s very good at it (think Snoopy dancing to Schroeder’s music).

  1. And that’s a great price! What a wonderful match. I’m glad to know of this group, as distinct from the AAR’s academic focus SBL, Society for Biblical Literature.
