Tamales

2008-12-08T03:55:57Z

I went to the Tamale Festival today. I had a traditional pork tamale; a blue corn with grilled chicken and habaneros tamale; a beef with roasted garlic tamale; a shrimp tamale; and, an apple tamale. O so good. I now have a head ache and I don't ...

It comes down to the first Tuesday of November

2008-11-05T02:49:56Z

I had my wisdom teeth taken out this morning. I haven't been myself all day. So I wrote a lot about the issues in the Presidential campaign and ended up not voting for any candidate in any race (except one seat on the school board). I did vote on ...

50 Best Albums of all Time

2008-10-29T21:20:49Z

I was just reading an article in a magazine of the 50 best albums of all time. I also have the Rolling Stone 500 best albums book. Basically I'm an expert on" top album" lists. I think they're all very subjective. Of course this is the only way ...

Schoolyard politics

2008-10-10T16:16:36Z

Verse for today

2008-10-07T02:06:04Z

I seem to have skipped this over before. I've read Romans 1 a bunch of times, and I've heard it taught on over and over. Romans 2 is the point Paul is getting to by bringing up the sins in the first chapter. He says, "for at whatever point you jud...

The banking crisis

2008-09-26T05:22:46Z

A lot of Republicans have been deflecting the criticism of McCain's comment, "fundamentals of our economy are strong." They have been blaming the people who bought mortgages without the ability to pay. But this is not the cause of this thing. I'm ...

Tithing time

2008-09-22T21:14:53Z

Imagine what would happen if the Church didn't just tithe their money. Perhaps they wouldn't see their tithe as a buffer between them and actual service. What would happen if every parishioner tithed their time to the Lord's work? We work 40-hou...
