Philip David Horner

Our willing victim this week is none other than Phil Horner, who joins the Kerchner Family Podcast to discuss why he loves Jr. Highers, his thoughts on early Christianity, and why he like the rest of us is becoming nerdier by the minute.

  • Though you are my favorite son-in-law, I would just like to say that your willingness to step over the line of gender biases that our culture has imposed on such excellent pasttimes as knitting, is a breath of fresh air. Josh, this does not make Phil a nerd... he is a cultural pioneer, a yarnloving Davy Crockett of his time! Go knit, young man, go knit!
    You make me proud...

  • Phil, although I cannot affirm your gender-bending, yarn-weaving proclivities, I can certainly second your approval of the "Civil War Reenactment Water War" this year. It is sure to become an annual tradition. Particularly poignant were the picnicing women folk, cheering us on, as at Gettysburg. For kin and country!

  • I will say this once, and only once: I have participated in NO gender-bending activity. Let it be known henceforth that I am a veteren of the Kerchner Family Civil Water War, and no man could have withstood such an onslaught of terror, little pieces of rubber, and copious amounts of water if he wore a girdle. I am proud to say the only pumps in my house are on my shotgun and on my wife's feet. Hoo-ah!

  • I also enjoyed the "Civil War Reenactment Water War." However, I'd like to say that we were not the picnicing womenfolk with rose-colored glasses. We were more like the Red Cross nurses, since though we did not participate in the bloodshed, we did spend the next tedious hour helping to pick up the slimy balloon pieces.
    And don't let Phil fool you, we spend many a blissful evening knitting and watching "Pride and Prejudice" together.

  • Phil, you should be ashamed! How could you not know the Preamble? Shee! Some of us actually paid attention in elementary school. I was at rapid learner school (that's where smart people who pay attention go) *ahem* Read it and weep --

    The Preamble of the Constitution: We the people of the United States of America, in order to form a more perfect Union, establish justice, fight for truth, and affirm the American way do here-by dawn this skin-tight blue suit and these here red underpants in our pursuit of happiness for all-mankind to forwith affirm the rights of all men (created equal) to live long and prosper with infinite diversity in infinite combinations as our forefathers did do under the formitable reign of Jean-Luc Picard... before the dark times, before the Empire, do hence-forth affirm this constitution as the all-powerful force that surrounds us, indwells us and binds the Universe together. We have to keep that ark out of the hands of the Nazis.

    There you are! Who says CA state public education is flawed?

    --Yours, Wes... oh, and Phil: I wasn't bored for a moment during this discussion what's more interested than history and theology? (I mean that completely without irony) (seriously) (no irony) (I think most of the Kerchners, your father-in-law foremost among them, would agree)

  • There SHOULD be a good theology podcast out there. I've tried to find one and the only ones out there are sort of lousy. Phil, get podcasting. You'll have a least one subscriber, I guarantee.
