I’ve been struggling the last few days over the issue of my blog. I’ve worked hard over the last year to make it a place where people really and truly want to read, and are made to think hard over the issues that I look at. I’ve had a wonderful time doing it, and have to say it has been a blessing from God on my life.
But, sometimes, God moves us on. He makes us tired of the things we’re doing, and they suddenly seem vulgar and out of place in our lives. He tells us over and over that what we’re doing is not the best thing to be doing. We should be doing better things. Remember, if God isn’t blessing us, then it must not be God’s will. I mean, if I don’t have a lot of money, something is certainly not right.
So, I am here to kiss my blog goodbye. No archives will be saved. Everything will be demolished tomorrow. Farewell, my good friends, and may God bless you with happiness all the days of your life! It’s hard sometimes, but I know it is for the best. God knows that the time has come for Agent Tim to leave the blogosphere, and to do other things.

You’d better not be deleting anything on the Sabbath. Especially not tomorrow’s Sabbath. You’ll get stoned!:-)
Your words were very true though. Happy April Fools!

TIM!!!!!!
You just about had me fooled. I saw it from ROC and though WHAT?!?!?!?
I played a pretty good joke on my family today at dinner. I had been talking to Alex and came in and said:
“That was Alex King. Regenerate Our Culture wants to fly me to D.C. to help interview Jay Sekulow and Ken Ham on ‘Creation in the Culture’.”
But I told them it was a joke pretty fast.
Cya!

That nearly gave me a heart attack. I completely believed you…now I know how gullible I really am.

You had me until the line “No archives will be saved”. I then paused and thought, “Wait. Just. A. Moment.” and scrolled down for an April Fools’ notice, which just so conveniently happend to be right where I thought it would.
You ol’ Jester.

You had me convinced too Tim! I saw it on the ROC Blog Network and gasped…my mom did too
Glad you’re not really leaving…

I am extremely glad is was a joke.
But Tim, one thing you may or may not have thought about. The archives may be deleted without your doing. The server may crash, or some other misfortune. As a fellow webmaster, I know it can happen sometimes. If you don’t already, backup your website files regularly.

Thanks for the tip Garret!

Man! You had me fooled!
April 1st, 2006 at 10:54 pm
Wow, Tim, you really scared me! I was so convinced that you were serious!! Thank goodness you aren’t!!
I’m so glad you were just joking….
April 2nd, 2006 at 4:24 pm
Dude!!! I believed you, too. Thanks for not leaving!
April 2nd, 2006 at 4:35 pm
You really had me fooled there…. My eyes just popped back into my head…
You make a convincing liar….
April 2nd, 2006 at 9:41 pm
Lol… yes indeed he does!

Man, that was _wrong._
..just wish I could stop laughing.

Tim - The first thing I did was look at the date, then I read your resignation. But this sentance confirmed my suspicion: “Remember, if God isn’t blessing us, then it must not be God’s will.” I’m glad you included the line “I’m not leaving and I’m no heretic!”.
Keep up the good work!

Due to a very busy Saturday, I did not see this post until a few days later. It caught me completely off guard. I did think it was weird and unnatural, but I believed it all the way down to the end!
