I hear a bad joke this weekend. Put your wife and your dog in the trunk of your car. Drive around town for a couple of hours. Now, stop and open the trunk. Which one do you think is happy to see you? I'd credit that joke to the appropriate sourse; I think it was … Continue reading In the Trunk

Pink and Green
First, some background about the way I select my clothes in the morning. I generally put the freshly laundered clothes on the left side of the closet, and select clothes to wear from the right side. I suspect women select their clothes based on mood, impression, temperature, moon phase, and other factors I can't deduce, … Continue reading Pink and Green
Hope and Fear
Inauguration Day: "On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord." Today: "This recession might linger for years. Our economy will lose 5 million more jobs. Unemployment will approach double digits . Our nation will sink deeper into a crisis that, at some point, we … Continue reading Hope and Fear

Review: 3:16. The Numbers of Hope
Max Lucado writes as only he can, with insight and brevity, packaged in powerful imagery. His latest book, 3:16, is packed with delivious observations and challenges, and he does it by focusing on 27 simple words. For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only son so that whoever believes in … Continue reading Review: 3:16. The Numbers of Hope
Daily Manna – 2 Corinthians 9:6-9
Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things … Continue reading Daily Manna – 2 Corinthians 9:6-9
Pink Panther Returns
I wrote last month about how I'm having trouble enjoying Hollywood movies and critiqued the latest Pink Panther movie as an example. Needless sexual entendre and poorly implemented slapstick spoiled what could have been a funny movie. The American Spectator today agrees: In addition to that first tedious scene of Clouseau trying to park a … Continue reading Pink Panther Returns
Pink Panther
I'm having a lot of trouble enjoying movies coming out of Hollywood. I saw the new Pink Panther movie last night. Steve Martin did an acceptable job as Clousseau, and I can't imagine any other actor that could do a better job. But Peter Sellers had the role down pat. When something went wrong, he … Continue reading Pink Panther
Science Made Stupid Again
I stumbled across a funny site called "Science Made Stupid" and started writing a post about it... Introduction Since the dawn of time, man has looked to the heavens and wondered: where did the stars come from? He has looked at the great diversity of plants and animals around him and wondered: where did life … Continue reading Science Made Stupid Again
Lowering Stress
I've been tagged by Spin the Moon. I dunno why. Do I look like the kind of guy that plays "tag?" I'll humor her, though. This time. 😛 Things you enjoy, not because you have to but because you WANT to, even when no one around you wants to go out and play. What lowers … Continue reading Lowering Stress
