I’ve spent all week trying to wrap my brain around the concept of loss.

I posted previously here and here about my friend Joel, who has been fighting a war against Lymphoma this past year or…

Haven’t posted in a while. (i know i’ve done a post commenting about how often people start a blog post with that phrase.)

I’ve been thinking. There’s all this stuff I believe in, and I want to…

I can’t find a job.

I’ve been trying to find something that fits me perfectly for 2 years now. I knew that where I was at couldn’t be long term. I knew that I couldn’t afford to work for nothing…

My last post was my favorite 50 books of all time.

As soon as I finished writing that post, I started reading Ender’s Game, by Orson Scott Card. 24 hours later, I’m finished with it, and it was…

I thought I’d make a list of all my favorite books to share with you all. I’m sure I won’t get them all on here, but here’s a good start:

You are being told that Obama’s “stimulus” plan is going to cost ~$800 billion dollars. This isn’t true. The estimated 10-year cost of this bill is actually about $3.27 trillion.

Poor kid had a tooth pulled, and he’s completely stoned on the laughing gas…oh my.

Any of you who know me probably know that I love music. Not just radio music, or pop music, or indie music, or even playing music myself, but all sorts of music.

Up there in my list of all time…

This is where my heart is. Please take the time to watch this short video and consider the facts.

We can save 5 million children’s lives every year, if we provide just a few billion…

Joel and Kristen Martin came to visit us in Phoenix this weekend. I’ve blogged about Joel’s situation before. He’s been battling lymphoma for the last few years. I’m happy to report that Joel’s…
