The Revolution

The Revolution is a wake up call! The time is short, and we, the church must rise up out of our complacency and truly seek God! It is time for us to step up, join together, and change the world! We have poured our hearts into this record! It is transparent and real and that is where any Revolution begins, in our hearts.

Steve Vaught, from thefatmanwalking.com, visits the site

Saturday, August 13th, 2005

Steve Vaught, from www.thefatmanwalking.com, is walking across America to loose weight.
I originally posted a story about Steve Vaught back in July. Steve who? That’s what I said. But wait, everyone has a story. Steve Vaught has decided to do something about his weight. He isn’t going to join a gym. He isn’t going lo carb. He’s realized he has an addiction and needs to do something extreme. So he’s going to take six months out of his life and walk across the United States from San Diego to NYC. Below is the post that Steve left on the site. Trust me. I did verify to see this was actually ‘the Steve’ and not some Internet prank.

Below are his comments:

Thanks for the support Shannon. You do understand the situation correctly. I wanted to add something though. I have not abandoned my family to do this. The are taken care of and I speak with them almost daily. My daughter is very proud of me and that trumps all of the dissenting Tims any day. I am not some idiot who leaves his family to fend for themselves while I am out chasing womenor booze, instead I am an idiot who let his life get away from him and wants to correct it. The easy and selfish thing to do would be to do nothing, stay home and slowly die. That death would not be an easy one either, it would slowly chip away at me while diabetes, or heart disease slowly eats me away. If I were to follow Tim’s advice and stay home and work at least I would have some extra money to give to the Doctors to keep me alive long enough to torture my family with my long, drawn out death before I leave them alone when they need me the most, and when they are on their way to the poor house because they tried to keep me alive as long as possible. But at least I would have a 781 credit score and I am sure that they would find solice in that. Thanks for the advice Tim and I will be forwarding payment to you for it in the amount that the advice is worth. I am sure you know what that amount will be.

I wonder if I will ever have a chance to meet you during my travels over the next thirty or forty years? Steve
