Boo Scott

Track 6 @2pm>> Leading a Bible Study- Where Do I Begin?

Boo says, " I can hurl rocks at small moving insects with deadly accuracy. I was once dead but now I'm alive. I've been skydiving, Rocky Mountain climbing, and I've gone 2.7 seconds on a mechanical bull named "Fu Manchu." I sleep a full 8 hours every night. I never need a vacation after my vacation. I am a paper cut survivor. I paint, I woodwork, I bike, I hug trees, I keep bees, and all my bills are paid. On weekends, I teach the meaning of life to people. One time there was an elderly lady in front of me at the grocery store and she couldn't pay for her groceries. Being the nice guy that I am, I helped her put all of her groceries back on the shelves."
