Canada was good. A group of us from Little Flock church went and assisted a former member and recent emmigrant conduct a vacation bible school among other projects.
I learned a lot about canola.
Madness???
I am currently watching “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” and sufing the internet after work. My trip to Canada was really fun. It was so good to be around other Christians non-stop for a week. The children and youth were fun too. Back to the grind for now, or at least the […]
Gossip is that Michael Caine will remake “Sleuth” with his “Alfie” successor, Jude Law, and that Caine will play Olivier’s part.
If you haven’t seen the 1972 “Sleuth” with Caine and Lawrence Olivier, do. It suffered the unfortunate circumstances of being a British production competing against “The Godfather” that year, but is one of the […]
Pieces of Flair (explicit language), starring Hillsdale College alums Matthew and Meredith, is pleasantly cynical. Meredith recently pined over:
Liberality: the cool new futuristic comic starring Sean Hannity, G. Gordon Liddy, Oliver North, and “Reagan McGee”. After Rupert Murdoch defied the anti-hate-speech “Coulter Laws” and the Gore administration signs a truce with radical Islam, they […]
Marketing. When it works, it hits the jackpot. I didn’t realize how much it affected me until I reflected on it when I went shopping today. In college, I switched deodorants, and have stayed with one brand for the last seven years. The company gave away buckets of free samples, and I […]
I’m perpetually amused at how people talk down to me. Not as much that people talk down to me, since we all think we’re smarter than our neighbors, but the manner and subjects people choose.

I just returned from Michigan; only a 16 hour trip. My roommate graciously picked me up from the rental car place late at night with almost no notice.
Michigan twice, Montana (sister’s wedding), Florida, DC, and Oh Canada. It’s like I’m a snowbird this summer or something.
Madness!!!
If Europe and the US do not stop Iran from making nukes, Israel will.
Madness?
Today, Aug. 12th, is the birthday of Fleetwood Mac. They made their first performance in the UK in 1967.
Madness.
I’ve really been quite horrible about taking pictures recently, especially during my recent trip to Canada. Here is my best one, consisting of some animal tracks I found. If anyone wants to send me some from the trip to share, do.
Madness!
British clinics to screen embryos for cancer potential, kill the impure. Will your diseased children be allowed to live among the super-humans?
Madness!!!
Today, August 13, is Alfred Hitchcock’s birthday (1899-1980).
Madness.
Now, after reading today’s Dilbert, I have a better understanding of certain past disappointments.
I would have called it “Schrödinger’s doughnut”.
My own . . .
Madness!
Update: At work today, I was right in the middle of explaining the importance of the Iowa Caucuses to Democratic politics, and about to make an insightful comparison of Hillary in […]
