Green Living Seminar

An amazing evening! Wow… We had just over 50 people attend last night's Green Living Seminar – making it the second most attended LTTG class to dated (the first being the 2007 Wilderness Survival class).

The evening started with a brief introduction highlighting the fact that we can make a difference – both [...]

The Queens Demands

Following the demands of the Queen, I ran around town today during lunch some various errands (well, I drove to certain locations on the west side – running would entail too much work). The Queen demanded new rocks in her toilet – or she would stop using it at the endangerment of all her [...]

Who Am I – Casting Crowns

A friend set me this really cool video set to the music of Casting Crown. I would tell you more about the video…but then it would ruin it. Clue: It includes blacklights and white gloves

[@more@]Did you figure out the new cool "spoiler" trick I learned?    If not, try highlighting the area [...]

Sleep, ah, wonderful sleep

Written by Joss Whedon, Serenity: Better Days #1 is a wonderful comic book based [...]

Resurrection and Creation Care

Rarely do I post fully articles as they tend to be long and have that nasty copyright issue attached… However, today I have decided to post an article or, one might say, essay about Easter and Creation Care.

While I know that some of you will not agree with Brandon Rhodes views on [...]

Easter this year is: Sunday, March 23, 2008

As you may know, Easter is always the 1st Sunday after the 1st full moon after the Spring Equinox (which is March 20).  This dating of Easter is based on the lunar calendar that Hebrew people used to identify passover, which is why it moves around on our Roman calendar. Found out a couple of [...]

Back in the saddle…

…dog tired and hands tied to the horn…but at least I’m in the saddle.

As I try to do two days worth of work in one day – all the while trying not to run my energy down – I’m going to leave you all with a quote from John Wimber’s book The [...]

Strep Throat, Anyone?

It has been a tough week – one full of pain, medicines, & vitamins. So much so that I took yesterday and today off work to try to get better. Besides, I had already infected the entire office Monday and Tuesday due to ignorance. =(

The good news is that I get to [...]
