• Sunday 25 | Why do we Blog?

  I’ve noticed a lot of people talking about their motivation for blogging. A while back Wendy blogged about what she hopes to do with her blogs. Actually, it’s a series of posts that tell the whole story but she leads off with a good question. Is it just me, or does anyone else have certain [...]

Story begins with the Queen of Golden Wheel Kingdom had an affair with her cousin West Poison, and they planned to take over the Kingdom. The 3rd Princess discovered [...]

• Tuesday 20 | Baby’s got a brand new bag

  It’s more of a backpack than a bag but I don’t want the facts to get in the way of my musical omage. So with the recent addition of a 50mm Prime lens and a 70-300mm zoom lens, the old camera bag wasn’t going to cut it anymore. It just wasn’t quite big enough. So [...]

• Friday 16 | Redneck Bowling

• Tuesday 13 | Free Will Song

  Just found this over at Samshua. Quite possible the most hilarious and distrbing song of all time. As you listen to the song, you’ll see that saying God is sovoriegn yet gives us a free will is such an oxymoron. These people sing about God’s control and power and glory over everything and then say [...]

• Wednesday 7 | Pocket Dictionary of Theological Terms

  This is the first in what I hope becomes a recurring series about Apologetics. Occasionally called eristics, apologetics is the formal defense of the Christian faith.

  895 Back in December, my wife and I received a very wonderful gift. Her parents gave us one week in their timeshare plus airfare. So that means we will be vacationing in Kauai at the end of February. Now I’m not bragging but rather asking for your help. I’ve only been to Hawaii once when [...]

  A while back I was trying to visit a commenter’s site only to discover she was blocked by SonicWALL for p0rnography. I eventually got around to visiting her site and have not found the p0rnography (not that I’m looking). So I did a bit of poking around and discovered that you can find out your [...]
