What I learned from “Law & Order” . . .

Alabama Burning - Too Bad No One Was Gay
5 Comments Published by Blandus March 9th, 2006 in UncategorizedWell, they caught the “Alabama Burning” psychopaths. Acting students Benjamin Nathan Moseley, Russell Lee DeBusk Jr., and Matthew Lee Cloyd decided one night to burn 5 rual churches as a “joke”.
It is a good thing that they immediately confessed to have been terrorizing rural Alabama Christians only in jest and as part of a […]

Joshua Malina is my hero. I’ve never liked his new interest. […]
I just found something really funny on, of all places, the internet.
But it contains profanity and/or innuendo . . .
I would love to link and share this thing with you, but am hesitant because of my:
1) Cultural mores
2) Desire to set a good example
3) Love of propriety
4) Current and future family are among those most […]
Teacher fired in Louisville for allegedly biting a student. The now-former middle school teacher denies having bit the student, but admits to finding the student’s clothing in her mouth. The teacher had been warned about becoming physically violent with students in 2004 and 2005.
Madness!!!!
Addition: today is also the birthday (1933) of Supreme Court […]

The following is an insightful quote from my very able Systematic Theology professor, Bruce A. Ware:
“We do not do what we know. We do what we love.“
This idea helps me because it reminds me to love God first. Why do I sin? Because I am not loving God. How can I […]

As of the 1990 US census:

If I’ve done my math right, in 1990 there were about 39 of us with that name in the US. I […]
