    I am a big fan of Zombie movies…but not ALL Zombie movies. A lot of really crappy movies are made under this genre, much like Christian movies, or inspirational titles…seems like people are willing to endure a bad movie if it falls under a very niche genre. But I digress. Below is a list of…

  • You CAN change the world. In a way.

    I heard an interview with a Doctor who was part of “Doctors Without Borders” in Darfur on NPR today. I was moved by something he said that I found profound. He was asked if he felt like he was changing the world in Darfur. And I am liberally paraphrasing: It’s hard to ever feel like…

    Last night as I was falling asleep, I thought about what I do, and what I sell. As my mind was moving over all the things I do in a day, it settled on the fact that I essentially sell data. Clients pay me for ones and zeros strung together. I start from nothing, and…

    I have a digital TV tuner box, but the problem with the DTV signal is that if it’s unclear, you can’t watch TV, and since my antenna is REALLY crappy, I sometimes watch TV in analog mode. Well, our local news station 13 really wants to encourage people to make the switch. The picture below…

    Mark Cox had this on his blog, and I had to share it here; if for no other reason than I don’t want to forget it.. This is incredible.

    I’ve been reading “Renovation of the heart” by Dallas Willard, which I highly recommend to anyone who would like to learn more about life with Christ. As I read through it, there are so many things that resonate in my heart about Jesus that I wish the world would hear. And I think that’s how…

    For anyone who stumbled here and doesn’t know me, let me say right now that I am a Christian. I believe that Jesus’ teachings and the life he modeled for us are the key to the salvation of the world in every sense. I’m more of a conservative than a moderate, I didn’t vote for…
