Junk and Junk
Surprising the heck out of MCF. Some of the other stuff wasn’t posting right so:

Children of Hurin
I can’t even go into real details because Tolkien’s world is so expansive but this book was phenomenal. I’m not just saying that because I love Tolkien either. I’ve read Turin Turumbar’s story in the Silmarillion and again in The Book of Lost Tales but the way the story was compiled for CoH really allowed…

Awesome Read: The Dresden Series
On average, I tend to read about fifteen books at once. Sometimes I even finish them. While impatiently waiting for the next installment of any series (the Star Wars Legacy of the Force Series (stil writing), George R. Martin’s (still writing), Robert Jordan’s (in recovery) and J.K. Rowling’s (july 21) ) I decided to try something new…

Protestants Protest…Again
This just in: the Catholic Church doesn’t think Protestant Churches are true churches (as they define it). It cracks me up that Protestants are flipping out about this since its basically the same position since the 16th Century. Here’s the clause causing fuss even though I link to the full thing above, here and here.…

Crazy Vacation
I come back from the long weekend from preaching upstate and visiting my old church in NYC to start my vacation from my designing job. So, instead of working 9-5 on my regular, I worked 9-3 on my part time job then rushed home for lunch, pick up my son to head out to Vacation…

Sy: Song and Story
My boy composed a song (coconut-tree.mp3) that I had to record so I played the guitar for him while he sang the tune: it’s called Coconut Tree. Also, he wrote (or drew) a nice story about his visit to the radiologist for a CAT scan: I’ll let him tell it (with my notes in italics).

Test Using Windows LiveWriter
I wanted to check out this ap here since it does spell checking and all that good stuff (even a preview of your post!) before publishing to the web. So far it seems pretty easy to use although the response to my typing seems just slightly slow…but that can be my imagination. I’d also like…

Given To Fly
Last year, around this time (but I didn’t post about it), I was boarding a small, seemingly antique propeller-powered plane after being stuck in way-too-modern airport for roughly 10 hours waiting for Boston weather to clear up. My brother, flying in from Jersey, was in the same predicament but his airport had the benefit (spelled…

What’s In A Name?
Some people have mothers that speak in proverbs like “If you have nothing good to say, don’t say anything at all.” Not being similarly privileged, I was undeterred from posting the mindless ramblings that occurred to me today on my drive home from shopping. Spotting a discarded couch on the sidewalk I asked my wife…
