Happy Shabbat! I hope this blog post finds you and brings you some insight and joy. If you've been following along, you know that Monday is the Sabbath Day in the secular Church of Bike with Joe. Because the Church is secular, there's no religious or spiritual underpinning for having a Monday Sabbath. It's more about "sticking it to The Man," where The Man is the Diabolical Forces in the Universe (DFUs)...and there are many!
Unlike the Jewish Shabbat that runs from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday, adherents of the Church of BWJ can still do all the fun things in life on Mondays. The idea is to NOT work in the traditional sense of labor that you give to The Man in exchange for money, and sometimes perks like weekends off, vacation/sick time, and retirement savings.
Unlike the Christian Sabbath that is mostly on Sundays (though occasionally Wednesdays and Fridays, depending on the sect of Christianity, for whatever reason), adherents of the Church of BWJ don't go to an actual, physical church. Instead, we engage in the things that bring us JOY. And one of the things that brings us joy is NOT working for The Man on Mondays.
GUPPY EFFECT rock-n-roll super duo had a good rehearsal yesterday. We workshopped and woodshedded vocal harmonies and ran through almost a full set of material. We are hoping to perform an open mic or open jam some time in February.
Well, I think I'll leave it there for today.
Fin.
