Holiday Culture Wars
Beliefnet has setup a "Holiday Culture Wars Blog" that makes for some interesting reading. From a Christian perspective, they've highlighted television shows with sexually-explicit lyrics set to Christmas music, obscene art that is "rife with Christmas-themed debauchery," and how Christmas has become so secularized to the point where atheists "unhesitatingly wish everyone a Merry Christmas." … Continue reading Holiday Culture Wars
Hand of God
I have some good news for me this week; I’m done traveling for a while, I hope. There’s no place like home, there’s no place like home. I had some difficulty on this trip; there were last minute changes to the agenda by the client who scheduled me for 8:00am meetings that he couldn’t make, … Continue reading Hand of God
Dreaming
I woke myself up laughing this morning at 3:00am. Apparently I was having a very funny dream. My first thought was to be quiet; I don't want to wake up the sweet wife with my 3:00am laughter. She'll think I'm off my rocker. And of course, she'll want to know what's so funny. "I had … Continue reading Dreaming
Seizing New Opportunities
I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that we completed our study of the book of Hebrews and we’ll be moving on to new scripture to study. The bad news is that we completed our study of the book of Hebrews. There was a lot of good information in … Continue reading Seizing New Opportunities
Mechanical Investing for December 2006
This was a good month again for Mechanical Investing; I'm catching up to the market, though still lagging behind. Let's check the numbers - Last 4 weeks: +4.3% Last 3 months: +3.2% Year to date: +1.0% (Dow is +14.7% ytd from 10,718) Last 12 months:+0.9% Holding for another month: Ticker Bought Now Months Return … Continue reading Mechanical Investing for December 2006
Christ is Missing
A manger scene without baby Jesus? ST. ALBANS, W.Va. - Christ is missing from Christmas in this small town. The community's holiday display has a manger with shepherds, a guiding star, camels and a palm tree, but no baby Jesus, Mary or Joseph. The parks superintendent said Jesus was left out because of concerns about … Continue reading Christ is Missing
Rocky Balboa
"No matter what, you can overcome your past," he said. "With help, if you look to God, you can overcome your past and be reborn." I learn something new every day. Did you know Sylvester Stallone is a born-again Christian?
Boycotting "Winter Holiday" Again
I'm boycotting "Winter Holiday" again. If you want to celebrate some sort of pagan winter thingy, you just go right ahead. But if a retailer can't acknowledge that I'm celebrating Christmas, then I'm not going to shop there. I did this last year, too. Some changes from last year, though - Wal-Mart firmly has the … Continue reading Boycotting "Winter Holiday" Again
Where is Michael?
I'm still around. Just a lot of business travel and then a vacation and then more business travel. I tell people I'm going to France again and they think it's swell, but all I see is the inside of a French conference room. It looks a lot like an American conference room but with croissants. … Continue reading Where is Michael?
Compassionate Conservatism
I can't say I'm surprised. A new study shows that conservatives give more than liberals in every way possible - more money, more time, more giving blood, etc. In the book, he [Arthur C. Brooks] cites extensive data analysis to demonstrate that values advocated by conservatives -- from church attendance and two-parent families to the … Continue reading Compassionate Conservatism
Pooh, meet Leopard and Hyena….
Mr. Leopard, you sit there by piglet, and If you would be so kind Mr. Hyena, please sit next to little Roo there, that's right. My, aren't we friendly together? Would you like some scones, Pooh? Now Pooh, please take your head out of Mr. Hyena's mouth, that's not sanitary. I'm sorry, Leopard, Allah Akba-who? … Continue reading Pooh, meet Leopard and Hyena….
Ah, to be more like the rest of the civilized world…..
Hillary is thinking big again. I thought she learned her lesson last time: She also said Democrats would focus on improving the quality and affordability of health care _ a touchy matter for the former first lady, who in 1993 led her husband's calamitous attempt to overhaul the nation's health care system. The failure of … Continue reading Ah, to be more like the rest of the civilized world…..
Elton John Would Ban Religion Completely
From Drudge: Sir Elton John wants religion banned completely -- because he believes it promotes hatred of gays. Speaking to the Observer Music Monthly Magazine the singer said religion lacked compassion and turned people into "hateful lemmings". The PRESS ASSOCIATION reports: In a candid interview for a dedicated Gay issue of the magazine he shared … Continue reading Elton John Would Ban Religion Completely
They Just Hurt Themselves
While I expected the Democrats to make inroads, I'm shocked at how big they are. The Democrats didn't have any real coherent position except "We're against everything Bush." It worked with the help of media - I saw one survey this week that said only 12% of news stories last week were favorable to Republicans. … Continue reading They Just Hurt Themselves
Exercise Confidence
I think I can, I think I can, I think I can. Do you recognize those words? The Little Engine That Could, carrying a trainload of toys over the mountain. The load was so heavy and the journey was so long, the Little Engine was ready to give up. Defeated. I can’t do this, the … Continue reading Exercise Confidence
Oh, boy. You could see this coming….
More bad news from the schoolyard bullies. It seems that you may live (briefly) to see the nuclear powers of the caliphate turned loose upon the world. More here. What's the best way to deal with bullies? (sigh).......Perhaps Israel will save us. Some link this new nuclear drive from muslim states to the apparent inaction … Continue reading Oh, boy. You could see this coming….
Dems = dhimmi
Why we infidels of the Great Satan should vote for the Dems? Now get out there and vote.
Character Counts
I'm fascinated when a poll turns up distinct differences between groups of people A UPI-Zogby poll asked participants to rank their top requirements in a candidate. The interesting difference is that Republicans (63.2%) said that "values, morals and character" were the most important consideration in choosing a candidate. The Democrats? 42.3% said "opposition to the … Continue reading Character Counts
The ONE Campaign
Early Voting
I'm off to the polls this evening to vote early. Here is the sample ballot for Harris County. Just in case you wonder, I'm almost voting straight Republican. In most cases, I don't have a choice since the Republican nominee is running unopposed. For Governor, I'll hold my nose and vote for Rick Perry, then … Continue reading Early Voting
Domestic Evangelism
When I hear of mission groups reaching out to Americans, I know there's a need. While most people believe in God, I don't think most believe know why they believe in God or why that should be important to them. This latest poll on American's views on God show what I mean. Among the various … Continue reading Domestic Evangelism
Help Us Jon Cary We R Stuk in Irak
Yup, that just about killed John Kerry's chances of being President in 2008. First he insulted the troops, saying that if you're stupid you get stuck in Iraq. Then, instead of apologizing, he went on the offensize and blamed Bush, even though Bush had nothing to do with Kerry's statement. Then Kerry claimed it was … Continue reading Help Us Jon Cary We R Stuk in Irak
Mechanical Investing for November 2006

Carve your own pumpkin without having to stick your hand inside that slimy glop.
Firefly. Shiny.
Thanks to Sean for providing the link. It appeals to only a few of us, but by golly, I miss that Firefly series.
Burning Babies
I can hardly imagine the cognitive disassociation necessary. Here's a controversy from London; women are upset that, after an abortion, the hospital burns the aborted fetuses in the hospital incinerator. One local woman, who asked not to be named, said after the heartache of deciding to have an abortion she was mortified to find the … Continue reading Burning Babies
So Much Liberal Media Today
I've never seen so many news stories trumpeting the Democrats winning one or both seats of congress. Tonight, CNN was saying how great it was to have a divided Congress, or a President in one party and the Congress in another. The media is trying to brainwash the American people into believing this is a … Continue reading So Much Liberal Media Today
Living in Hope
Once upon a time, a very long time ago, in Genesis 14, five kings joined forces. The king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the kings of Admah, Zeboiim, and Bela. For years, the five kings had been pushed around by four other kings, the kings of Shinar, Ellasar, Elam, and Goiim. Because it makes … Continue reading Living in Hope
Border Security
I don't know how one could make it any more obvious that better border security is needed. A Republican congressional candidate decided to make a point by smuggling a elephant and a six piece mariachi band across the Rio Grande river. A Pennsylvania congressional candidate and former reality-TV star used an elephant and a six-piece … Continue reading Border Security
Which Theologian Are You?
Actually, I confess I wasn't even sure of a couple of the questions. I'm surprised I wasn't closest to Martin Luther, though. I've never heard of Anselm before today. You scored as Anselm. Anselm is the outstanding theologian of the medieval period.He sees man's primary problem as having failed to render unto God what we … Continue reading Which Theologian Are You?
Facing the Giants
Facing the Giants was a wonderful surprise movie this afternoon. I just don't know why I hadn't heard of it before this week. It's the story of a small Christian school's football team, and their triumph over defeat by placing their trust in God instead of man. So many wonderful Christian examples of how to … Continue reading Facing the Giants

Dear Abby; My next door neighbor seems a bit on edge, perhaps mentally unstable. He says he's about to test a nuclear weapon. What should I do? South Korea

Spinach E Coli
This is where e coli in spinach is coming from. The water the spinach was washed in contained polliwogs and these became fresh new frogs, right in the packages. So if you’re looking for salad fixins with a little more “body,†then be sure and try this brand.
Principle Engineer
My email signature at work has my name, followed by the words, "Principle Engineer." It's been that way for probably two years. An Indian engineer pointed out that it should be Principal, not Principle. He also pointed out that English is his fourth language. I looked up both definitions just to be sure. principle  –noun … Continue reading Principle Engineer
Be Obedient
This is our 4th week in the book of Hebrews. The first week we learned how awesome angels are, learned about our own guardian angel, and that no matter how awesome angels are, Jesus is better than angels. If I recall, Jesus was also better than a Polish hotel, though I might have some wires … Continue reading Be Obedient
Friday Caption This
Something to ponder this weekend; add a caption to this photo:

Taking pictures of squirrels taking pictures. There's a website for *everything*.
Pope Must Die, Says Muslim
That's what a London Muslim says. The Pope must die. 1 - Pope says Muslims can be violent. 2 - Muslims riot, burn the pope in effigy, and say the Pope must die. Have I misunderstood? I keep looking for quotes from leading Muslim leaders denouncing the violence, but if quotes like that exist, I … Continue reading Pope Must Die, Says Muslim
Halloween Decorations
Halloween decorations are already up? The local grocery store already has an entire aisle devoted to Halloween. And it's only mid-September. That just ain't right.
The Prayers of the Sinner
I had dinner with some friends from church last night, and one of the more learned friends made a statement that at first I objected to, but the more I think about it, the more validity it seems to have. My question: Does God hear the prayers of the unrepentant sinner? In my own walk … Continue reading The Prayers of the Sinner
Remembering 9/11
Five years later, I am not so sure most Americans remember that our civilians were attacked without provocation and that we went to war with Islamic jihadists. Our enemies remember.
Censorship
Heh. And the left wing accuses the right wing of censorship. The Democratic party issues a veiled threat to ABC/Disney to cancel Sunday night's 9/11 miniseries: We therefore urge you to cancel this broadcast to cease Disney’s plans to use it as a teaching tool in schools across America through Scholastic. Presenting such deeply flawed … Continue reading Censorship
Buttons
Why does the dry cleaners crush the buttons on the sleeves of men's dress shirts? Do they have a special machine to crush buttons, or do they do it manually? Just curious.
Mechanical Investing for September 2006
The old portfolio has stabilized and erased nearly all of the losses from July. I'm glad I dropped that YLDEARNYR screen; things would look far more rosy if I hadn't used it. THe Mechanical Investing forum is discussing the reliability of these screens with varied start dates, and it's probable I'll make some adjustments when … Continue reading Mechanical Investing for September 2006
Pay Attention
For the rest of this year, our bible class will be deep into the Book of Hebrews. Most scholars believe the Book of Hebrews was written by Paul to the early Christians who had converted from Judaism, and we'll find excellent instruction these next few months on what Christian living is all about. So, let's … Continue reading Pay Attention
Immigration Poll
Latest telephone poll results on whether or not people in the US think illegal immigration is a serious problem: 41%: "Yes, it is a serious problem." 59%: "No hablo inglés."
Alarming News
I did it again. It's a recurring problem. Some people have a problem with sleep-walking. I have a problem with sleep-adjusting-the-alarm-clock. It mainfests itself between 3:00am and 5:00am usually. I'll start randomly pushing buttons on the alarm clock. I might change the time, the volume, the radio station, whatever. And the reason I know I … Continue reading Alarming News
Forced Conversion
I've been troubled by the recent story of the two journalists who were forced by their Palestinian kidnappers to accept Islam as a condition of their release. I'm not linking their story or names because I don't know certain details about their experience, but it does make me question. In Revelations 13:16-18, it says: He … Continue reading Forced Conversion

How long does it take your wife to get ready to go out? After watching this video, I can't help but think there are improvements to be had.
Writely
I think this is an interesting website - Google purchased Writely.com and made it free to the public. It's a free, web-based word processor. I have Microsoft Word on all my machines, so I can't think of a reason I'd want to use Writely. I suppose if I bought a new compressor, I might not … Continue reading Writely
What Is Your Opinion?
Has it really been a week since I posted? I think the cease-fire between Hezbollah and Israel is a mistake. I think Pat Buchanan's new book that western civilization is inflammatory but has a lot of truth. I think scientist that predicted a very active hurricane season ought to be brought to prime-time television, admit … Continue reading What Is Your Opinion?
The Meaning of Life
We started a new bible class today, and I am blessed to teach adults this year every 2-3 weeks. Not that I wasn't blessed teaching 3rd graders last year, but teaching married adults will be infinitely more challenging. I look forward to what God teaches me this year. Anyway, I'm going to try to share … Continue reading The Meaning of Life
Tuscan Whole Milk
Amazon sells a lot more than books. And I like the fact that you can write a review of the product.

Insanity
Link: Insanity. Apparently the Jews are not as crafty as they would have us believe. They can't even shoot down a simple rocket. Wait, a minute... my tin foil hat is slipping. Maybe,.....Maybe THATS EXACTLY what Israel wants us to believe. Those Jews are crafty indeed. CNN now accuses Israel of deliberately allowing their own … Continue reading Insanity
Elephant's Memory — A Touching Story
In 1986, Mkele Mbembe was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from college. On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed so Mbembe approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee and inspected the elephant's foot, … Continue reading Elephant's Memory — A Touching Story

Mechanical Investing for August 2006
It looks like July saw the bottom of the market for a while; things seem to have stabilized.

My prediction: one of them will be right, the other one wrong. … Continue reading Mechanical Investing for August 2006
The Return
I'm nearly back, I think. Thanks, Sean, for pitching in a couple of times while I was gone. Lots of things going on lately - besides business at work, we have a new bible class starting up and I'm trying to get geared up to teach every 3 weeks or so. It's exciting. And then... … Continue reading The Return

Psalms, Irish bogs, Protestants and Israel
Yesterday, the news reports that medieval copy of the partial Psalms was found in an Irish bog.

Brain full. Stress level high. I find the need to decompress. Wordy prose the first to go. Blogging will be light to non-existent for the next 3 weeks. Guest bloggers (and you know who you are) may or may not step in, depending on softball schedules and such. I am oocupado (that means I'm busy, … Continue reading Hiatus
Review: House
Sort of like combining Stephen King and C.S. Lewis. "House: The Only Way Out is In" (WestBow Press) is a very suspenseful and intense novel by Frank Peretti and Ted Dekker. In fact, it's so intense, I cannot in good conscience recommend this to kids or to the squeamish. The entire first half of the … Continue reading Review: House
Catch and Release
Do any liberals read this? I honestly would like to understand why the Democrats would oppose this. Right now, the Border Patrol arrests illegal aliens and then... releases them. Sometimes they're scheduled to attend a hearing later, but most of them don't show. I don't know why we bother arresting them in the first place … Continue reading Catch and Release

Superman Returns
Did you see Superman Returns? I saw it twice; I had read little snippets that there was significant Christian symbology in it, but it was much more obvious to me when I saw the movie. Warning, spoilers below, so don't click if you don't want to know: Jur-El telling his son Kal-El that he's sending … Continue reading Superman Returns

Here's a dangerous dilemma. How would you solve this problem? You are driving in a car at a constant speed.

Mechanical Investing for July 2006
June was another particular ugly month for investing, and there were significant losses by mid-June. I try to remember I have a longer time frame; I'm 20+ years from retirement and I'm certain this is my best investment vehicle. Sure, I'll have some losses, but I hope the wins are even bigger. Fortunately by the … Continue reading Mechanical Investing for July 2006

Review: The Da Vinci Codebreaker
This book is a companion guide to The DaVinci Code trash that Dan Brown inflicted upon us. Dan Brown claims simultaneously that his book is both factual and fiction, enabling him to attack the Catholic Church and Christians and hide behind the "fiction" when the heat is on. Many don't know that even many of … Continue reading Review: The Da Vinci Codebreaker
Do It Yourself Ringtones
Just the utility I was looking for; I've never felt comfortable spending good money on a sliver of music for a ringtone. $3 for that? You gotta be kidding me.

Review: Presumed Guilty
Sex. Mystery. Intrigue. When fiction includes topic like sex, you just know it's going to be good. Presumed Guilty by author James Scott Bell and published by Zondervan tracks the fall of a minister, Ron Hamilton, as his good works switch from glorifying God to glorifying himself. His own self of self-esteem and his own … Continue reading Review: Presumed Guilty
Jesus Heals
Presumably when Jesus was alive He didn't need bandages, but now you can buy bandages with His image on them for healing. Somehow it just doesn't seem right, but I can't put my finger on why. Healing comes from Jesus through prayer and grace, and a bandage with His picture doesn't fit into that equation … Continue reading Jesus Heals

There's a perfectly rational explanation why I'm walking down a busy Houston street on Father's Day with green Mickey Mouse socks and a bright yellow acrylic purse with bananas on it. When I woke up Sunday morning, the wifely one was already up. Insomnia, you see. So at 8:00am she finally went to sleep. I … Continue reading Dressed for Success
Kenya Mission, Day 7
January 2, 2006 Today's Swahili phrase: hakuna matada, which means "Disney marketing phrase." No wait, it means "no worries."

I first heard of this from a friend at church who had taken up a new running method.

Today I see an article from … Continue reading Barefoot Running

Don't look, Ethel! My portfolio lost 5% this month, fell behind the market as a whole, and was generally ugly to look at. So... I won't look at it anymore.

Boycott Ford
There are now 20+ pro-family groups boycotting Ford because of Ford's enthusiastic support of gay marriage. It looks like it's having an effect on Ford's bottom line: As the boycott of the Ford Motor Company picks up steam, the automaker continues to help finance homosexual organizations pushing same-sex "marriage." More than 20 pro-family groups are … Continue reading Boycott Ford

I last worked in the restaurant biz over 25 years ago as a waiter at Denny's, but I understand why restaurants SuperSize meals. Customers are going to take a fixed amount of time, roughly 1 hour, sitting in a seat. The restaurant is only so big, the best way to boost profits is to sell … Continue reading Super Size It
Market Influences
Today's a good example of why I invest mechanically. I don't read news resports to see whether the market is going up or down, I just stay invested because over the long haul the market goes up.

Written by Katharine DeBrecht, the same woman who did Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed!, this book takes a kid-friendly crack at Hollywood's influence on our children.

Government and Morals
Here's a discussion question for today (and totally unrelated to Boo Boo the chicken). Does government have the right to enforce morality?
