Have you seen the movie Fred Clause? There is a little orphaned AA kid in it, Vince Vaughn (Fred Clause) gives him a lecture on love and life, he says “don’t drink the cool aide” the little boy replies “I like the cool aide”. Our household is full of shameless movie quoters so we say that line a lot. It’s funny. I think all leaders are just that because they are offering some cool aide and I think all followers just wish they could serve up such tasty refreshment. We all are in danger every day of being drunk on our juice, that’s what the Devil got drunk on and well, things didn’t turn out to well for him in the end did they? So, all that to say we have to balance, read stuff like this post that check us, stay in the word, stay around people that DONT drink our juice and love us. It’s all good. “I like the cool aide”

This is a great question that I seriously had to wrestle with myself.
I got drunk on a lot of blogs. To the point of where I felt like I was friends with the author and should be able to hang with them whenever I wanted.
I think blogs in and of themselves are great community builders. The problem is the community that reads them. It is easy to hold someone to such a standard that we get drunk on every word they say and in all reality do not just treat them like normal everyday people. I guess the real thing is, that we are the problem in this because we promote other peoples stuff to such a level of amazingness that we forget that they are just like us.

I like that. I also like that it seems to go down the whole we can drink wine but not be drunk doctrine. Nice crossover.

hmmmmmm…
translating our drinking language…
I think the responsibility for the drinker is to make sure they keep realistic expectations of the drink.
ie: I think my old boss JEff Henderson is pretty much a step away from Divinity.
But I also know that his wife would tell me otherwise.
Therefore I take his penning for what it is.
Great informatiuon that I can’t get enough of.
But the second he becomes essential to my development as a leader/father/whatever…I’m drunk.
I should be able to survive without him.

I misspelled too many words to even attempt a spellcheck.

True that regarding your community. But are the commentors drinking yours? Not do you listen (or to what level do you listen)…but what is the responsibility of the drinkers? Or is just up to the pourers?

Boy I am getting thirsty…
