So for our New Year’s party we invited a bunch of people over and had a roistering time, stuffing ourselves full of far too much food for December 31st. Hawking over Jess’s shoulder during a hearty round of Taboo. I’ll have you know the guy’s won, many times over. Another very, very strange shot of... Read More

Note: Google seems to have picked this up as a top result for “Virginia Tragedy” even though this was about the West Virginia mining tragedy; and my blog’s subsequently been flooded with people looking for more information about April 16th’s shooting at Virginia Tech. For a comprehensive list of information about the shooting, please visit... Read More

Is This Google’s Chance to Kill Microsoft?
Seems as though Google has clarified that they won’t be pursuing their own own OS. So now hopefully Google and Mac get together to create the unstoppable force that could overthrow Microsoft. Maybe. Some very interesting news came across the wire today, a sort of one-two punch for the giant noone thought could die. First,... Read More

Spinning wheels. It’s pouring rain outside. Through the droplets on the screen I can still see the trucks thundering by. Strange, it wasn’t until day 3 that the weight of the new year hit me. I’m facing a vote next month to become associate pastor at our church. The process began late last year. The... Read More

It’s calling itself “the social browser” and claims to be the champion of Web 2.0. Visit the site and you’ll find humongous type and a free-spirited blurb about the way the web should work, but what is Flock and should you be excited about it?

A More Graceful Template Module
In a previous article I spent a good deal of time working through the concept of powering an entire site with Movable Type, and one of the biggest questions we dealt with was “what do I do with content that is shared across multiple template (and even blogs)?” After working at length with Arvind and...

Here beneath the fleeting sky, orange and close, My coffee-spoon existence flies Through the darkness, down a stream of shimmer grey. The yellow line, now on, now off, beats my waiting heart— The one in my throat. Battles on the island mind wax and wane, With strangers dressed to play the part Of paraclyte, conscience... Read More

Just came across this in the news: Abortion was decriminalised in Spain in 1985 for certain cases: after rape, in the case of malformation of the foetus and if the pregnancy represents a threat to the physical or mental health of the woman. The report said 95.7 percent of abortions were carried out for the... Read More

Blessings to all, friends! I was doing the right thing and avoiding the computer Christmas Day. With all of the family here and many goings on… going on, I felt much better laughing around the better social network that is the family, the one that can’t be deleted, hijaacked or spammed. As much as I... Read More

Things are progressing quickly and smoothly as we transition from our old apartment to our new apartment, much to the contradiction of early bumps in the road. I’ve taken some pictures of the stacks of boxes in our old apartment, and I’ll post them as soon as I can compliment them with pictures of our... Read More

I’d like to tell you all a 2 Corinthians 12:10 story. It starts with my failure and ends with God’s goodness. This past Sunday I preached again in church. My message was taken from John chapter 6 and dealt with the idea of putting the spiritual ahead of the material, finishing up with Jesus “will... Read More

Yep. You can now get to my photoblog a bit more easily… http://photos.plasticmind.com. Any old links should work, since i’ve done a bit of mod_rewrite gymnastics in my .htaccess; so if you’ve got some ancient bookmark to an old photo, it should all still work. Cheers! Oh, one more thing… people keep telling me they’re... Read More

Keep my wife in your prayers. She called the doctor’s a few weeks ago, and instead of having her come in, they prescribed antibiotics over the phone—isn’t that illegal, Rush? So after two weeks of antibiotics and painful coughing, she calls back and they offer her more antibiotics; no thanks. Finally, she decided to visit... Read More
