Disgracepoint Classic: Pastor Ed Kang Highlights - Basketball or Football?
This is another classic video -- Pastor Ed's sports highlights... It's kind of sad to say, but Pastor Ed Kang (Gracepoint Berkeley) USED to move like this, but now he has slowed down a lot (yes, it is possible to slow down more than what you see in this video).
Disclaimer: This video is sponsored by Manny Kim.
Pastor Ed Kang also got his own share of being fouled, but those shots do not make for a very fun video.

Disgracepoint Classic: Caption Contest Winners
We used to have contests of people submitting their own caption for a picture. When I posted this old picture of Pastor William Kang of Gracepoint Davis Church, I got many submissions. But these 3 won the popularity contest in 2008. (Disclaimer: the picture below comes from way before 2008).
Disgracepoint Classic: Pull My Finger
Setting: Brother T (who was at Gracepoint Berkeley Church when this happened, but he's now at Gracepoint San Diego) was playing sports and dislocated his index finger. He was rushed to the hospital where a triage nurse saw him.
Nurse: Okay, your finger is dislocated.. so I'm going to try to pull your finger back into place.
Brother T: Okay.. [sticks out his finger toward her]
[Nurse pulls, and brother T, blinded by the flash of pain that hit him, loses control and...]
Brrrrttttt!
Nurse: (immediately stops pulling the finger... pauses) Okay.. Let's try that again.
The above story demonstrates that sometimes "pull my finger" is no joke.

Disgracepoint Classic: Pizza, Italy, Cheese Are All Related
Setting: Long ago, a brother at Gracepoint Austin Church was looking at a slanted shoe rack..Brother W: Hey that looks like the cheese tower of leaning (pointing at a slanted shoe rack)
Friend: ... Did you mean the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
Brother W: Oh, yeah... You know it's the same thing because pizza has cheese.
NOTE: I am not exactly sure why this particular post is so popular -- I'm really just going by the number of views that it has gotten. It might just be the picture that is popular.
Disgracepoint Classic: A Disturbing Sign
Here's a sign that was put up near the entrance of our Gracepoint Davis Church's 607 building, so that as someone is coming into the building, they were greeted by this sign. I'm sure that Pastor William Kang was disturbed by this, although the sign very clearly tells him not to be.
The Disgracepoint Classics
Hello everyone,
Ever since 7 years ago when Disgracepoint was created during a Sierra Lodge trip with the Gracepoint leaders, it has thankfully brought many laughter and joy. Recently, the posts have slowed down for some mysterious reason, and it's because I have simply not been getting people's submissions of funny things that their friends have done.
One theory is that it's because our church people are getting more intelligent and therefore make fewer mistakes, so there are just fewer ridiculous stories to share. I am not sure about that theory.
Whatever the reason, in the upcoming weeks, we are going to feature some of the old but awesome posts from the past, and even some that were never posted!
Stay tuned.

Childhood Expectations
While babysitting, Sister L hears Kid B saying, "Gosh, I wish my mom would write me notes on my lunch napkins."
Sister L asks Kid B where she got that idea, and Kid B says, "Well, sometimes my friends' moms write nice notes on their lunch napkins like 'I love you' and things like that."
Sister L tips this off to the child's mom, and Mommy G thinks it will be a cute surprise to write her notes on her lunch napkins. So she writes her notes.
Next day, Mommy G asks her daughter, "So did you enjoy your lunch?"
Kid B says, "Mommy, can you never write me notes again? I thought I would like it, but it was really embarrassing."

Biology Patient: Plant Food
Sister L: Man, I've been watering this every single day. Why are the leaves so flimsy looking? Hey guys, what do you use for fertilizer? Maybe I should crush a vitamin pill for it.
Friends: Umm, plants don't need the same nutrients as humans.
Sister L: Hmmm.. Okay, how about juice?

Oz vs Lb
It really is difficult at times to familiarize ourselves with all the acronyms.
For your reference, oz = ounce. lb = pound. And there are 16 ounces in a pound.
When a Brother D from Gracepoint San Diego was asked to get 60 oz of canned tomatoes, he brought back the following.
