Someone asked me the other day why I think it’s fun to learn new things (perhaps because I say it is so very often). And for the first time in recent memory I didn’t have nor could I come up with an answer. (Which, for those of you that know me well enough, this is a problem…) [ READ MORE ]
Seth Godin is one of the bloggers I read regularly. I subscribed to his blog, and every time he writes something new, it shows up in my inbox. I love it. This was in my inbox a week or so ago and am just now responding to it. I’m kind of slow. Read his words [ READ MORE ]
I don’t intend to keep posting this kind of stuff and not actually writing. But when other people say it better… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JHS8adO3hM Why can’t we all figure it out like the guy Penn’s talking about[ READ MORE ]
This guy is my hero/idol/new best friend… even though we’ve never met. http://lordsofbacon.com/2008/11/bacon-fresh-easy-way.html[ READ MORE ]
Let me begin by saying: I am not an Obama-hater. However, I am not a big fan of Presidents in general, or the American government’s tendency to spend exorbitant amounts of money on things like inaugurations instead of helping people (current economy status aside). I came across this article today… It’s from a British source. [ READ MORE ]
Surely you’ve heard/read about this by now, but if not, here it is. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what a hero looks like: Capt. Chesley B. Sullenberger[ READ MORE ]
We all think we’re good at a lot of different things. I haven’t met too many people in life who honestly believe they aren’t a “good” driver. I’ve heard people say, “I’m a bad driver,” but none of them really mean it. We all think we’re good drivers. We can all justify speeding. And we [ READ MORE ]
This doesn’t happen very often, so all three of you reading should probably take notice. I never seem to have problem letting anyone know how I feel about anything, but this time has been different. (This, of course, is the thing of which you should take notice.) It’s something I’ve avoided talking about at all [ READ MORE ]
I have a slight [read: enormously annoying (at times) to those around me] tendency to be argumentative. Not in an angry or malicious manner, mind you, just in a playful, inquisitive sort of way. I truly enjoy the way people’s brains work. How do we arrive at conclusions (erroneous or true)? What causes behavioral change [ READ MORE ]
My favorite part of church each and every Sunday is always the sermon. I know that I’m one of the few, but I really enjoy good speaking. The sermon is probably not most people’s favorite part (in fact, I’m sure it wouldn’t even make most people’s top 5), but I truly enjoy it. And being [ READ MORE ]
Let me begin this post by saying that someone who has always lived in Florida may not quite enjoy this post as much as someone who has never lived here or isn’t “from” here. I love living in Florida. The weather is amazing (excluding those three unbearably hot & rainy summer months). It’s so great. [ READ MORE ]
“I want that.” This a phrase I hear on a regular basis. I have a three and a half (when do we stop using halves?) year old daughter whose descriptive power is sometimes lacking. She often employs the phrase, “I want that,” but it’s usually exceptionally unclear to what she is referring. The discourse commonly [ READ MORE ]
If you haven’t opened a children’s toy recently you may not have any idea what I’m talking about. But otherwise I hope you’ll join the army I’m forming to locate and destroy the toy factory at which Lucifer has taken up work. Last night I was opening toys for Lincoln (from his birthday party) and [ READ MORE ]
