You’re psychotic; I’m logically cautious
I finally got around to watching The Aviator yesterday, thanks to NetFlix. If you having been paying attention, this epic movie (meaning that it’s really, really long) brings to life on the big screen (or the 15″ TV in front of our treadmill) the story of Howard Hughes, the reclusive (paranoid) eccentric (psychotic) billionaire (billionaire)… Continue reading You’re psychotic; I’m logically cautious
Damned by Faint Praise: A Clarification

Quick glance at clock. 7:26 a.m. Hmm. And I was supposed to know this exactly how? I guess I… Continue reading Non-essential Updates and Pith-less Insights
Silence in the Darkness
Our pastor’s sermon this morning was on the somewhat unusual topic of silence. The focal verse was the first part of Psalm 46:10, which directs us to “Be still and know that I am God…” and is one of a number of references throughout Scripture regarding the necessity of being silent (Ecclesiastes 3:7 probably being… Continue reading Silence in the Darkness
