Sometimes You Just Don’t Know…

Sometimes you’re the windshield
Sometimes you’re the bug 

And sometimes, there’s just no telling.

Being a Christian is supposed to be a simple matter

Posted on 19th January 2012 in asides, Uncategorized

So, too, is being an American. At least at the heart of it. Mark Kelly delivers a simple, elegant, and forceful statement about what it means to be a Christian and an American.  Also featuring Stephen Colbert, so that’s all good.

more on the WordPress Blackberry app

Posted on 12th August 2009 in asides

Still playing around with the WordPress Blackberry app… Its a very slimmed-down UI, which makes complete sense, I just wish linking was easier. When I tried to insert a link in the previous post, I meed with it a bit and then gave up. Today, I tried old-school mark-up (!) and thank God the app recognized what I wanted before I slaughtered the HTML.

So, this is a link. Precious, I know.

Sweet – How to take apart your Blackberry Curve.  The boys cracked the faceplate on Mary Reed’s almost a year ago, and since then I had one go bad on me at work, so have some spare parts available.  Now all I need is a t6.

On the Price of Gasoline

Posted on 26th November 2007 in asides

Add this comment to the signs that I’m getting older: When I was in high school, $10 worth of gas in my Dad’s Datsun 210, and later the Toyota Corolla, held me for weeks.  In college, I could fill up my Nissan Sentra1 or Honda Civic on the first of the month and not worry about gas again for the rest of the month2, road-trips aside. 

This morning, I stopped to put some gas in my Trooper; and I wondered how far $103 would go.  Less than a quarter of a tank, it turns out; which should roughly translate into about 80 or so miles.  Hopefully enough for the week.

  1. What about it? []
  2. Granted, I lived less than a mile from my classes for the majority of the time there, but still… []
  3. Gas was at $3.05 for regular unleaded, compared to $.80 or so when I was in high school. []

Green Tea is Gross

I think that people who say they like green tea must be lying.  It is terrible.

I don’t know if I buy into the theory that hot toddys combat colds, but that won’t stop me from indulging from time to time.
