a theological post

“What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, [...]

klosterman on oden

I love Chuck Klosterman. Seriously one of the best and smartest writers alive. Here’s why he likes Greg Oden so much:
Frankly, Oden is my favorite player in this entire tournament. I love his stoicism. I realize members of the media are supposed to love “raw emotion,” but I always find that undignified. At this [...]

in the fridge/on the grill

In the spirit of shelf/ipod, I thought I would start a fridge/grill.

Hopefully this post will spur us on to trying different beers, and ways [...]

Alright, a background story is necessary [...]

“don’t mess with my emotions smokey”

funny/weird

Looks like someone has been watching to many NOOMA videos.
If MD starts doing these type of video vinettes I will have to peel the skin of my body.

on the shelf/on pandora

Notice that for this inaugural edition of self/ipod I have changed ipod to Pandora. Feel free to use Pandora or ipod, I just happen to be listening to Pandora for about 5-6 hours a day right now, so its gets precedence. Besides, all I use my ipod right now for is sermons, so well anyway.

Health Care?

Health care has long been a topic that I have been interested in. Mainly because I am human and mortal which means I have a need for it. Let me emphasize the word “need” this is different than want, want would be an iphone, need is health care. I point that [...]
