Liked this when I read it, so I’m sharing… It is not we who build. [Christ] builds the church. No man builds the church but Christ alone. Whoever is minded to build the church is surely well on the way to destroying it; for he will build a temple to idols without wishing or knowing it. We must confess [...]
I’m wondering if anybody blogs anymore…at least in the sense that we used to. Back in the day, I used my blog to post commentary about events happening around me. Most of my posts were short and relatively to-the-point. They were observations, ruminations, complaints, celebrations, and commentaries. Occasionally, I would take the time to write [...]
Just looked at my blog and was stunned to find that I haven’t posted anything here in over SEVEN MONTHS! I find myself posting micro-status updates on Facebook much more frequently than I end up posting thoughtful blog posts these days (although a quick look through my old blog posts would likely reveal that they [...]
I just returned the last movie I will ever rent from Blockbuster Video. Perhaps you recall that back in 2005 Blockbuster made a big deal out of their new “No Late Fees” policy. They had to do something; even at that point Netflix was already eating their lunch with a business model that included the [...]

In the US, more children die of childhood cancer than any other disease. Please make a donation on my behalf to support childhood cancer [...]
This is awesome! It’s a simulator re-creation of the flight of USAirways Flight 1549 that suffered a bird strike and went down in the Hudson River in late 2009, complete with overlays of the various different radio communications. No audio for the in-cabin discussions between Capt. Sullenberger and his First Officer, but you do [...]
File this one under “bizarre coincidences that you simply couldn’t dream up on your own.” One of my clients has been having trouble with ColdFusion on his server. I’m not a CF guy, so I can’t solve it for him, but he ran across a company with a bunch of very smart CF guys whom [...]
Christopher seems excited about the new camera.
Today I waited in line for over 30 minutes to buy a tank of gas…and felt lucky for how it worked out. 30 minutes in line at a Kroger 15 miles from my house which was one of the ONLY places that even HAD gas, and not only that, but they had all grades and [...]
