V
My best friend Rachel and I saw “V For Vendetta” last night. It was the second time I’ve seen it, and I love it. Below you will find some quotes I liked from the movie. I will most likely elaborate on them in future posts.
Evey: “He used to say that artists use lies to tell […]

For The Birds
I see a wonderful assortment of wildlife where I live: deer, wild turkeys, raccoons, woodchucks, cardinals, and ducks. And for the most part, I enjoy that.
Recently, however, geese have been showing up.
Don’t get me wrong. I think geese are kind of cute-looking. I put up with geese for years at college. My Grandma Playter and I […]

Coexist
I like Bono. (He’s the frontman for U2, and is known for his humanitarian endeavors, especially regarding Africa.) Sometimes when he’s performing, Bono puts a blindfold on. This blindfold says “Coexist”, and has the Islamic crescent for the “c”, the Jewish Star of David for the “x”, and the Cross for the “t”. It’s a great reminder that we need […]

From its evening-time sleep
When David got up.
(He’s the boy with the sheep.)
Today would be different—
His father had said,
“Go visit your brothers.
Make sure they’re not dead.”
His brothers […]

Monkey Business
How did last night go?
Last night was our Fifth Annual Comedy Night at First Baptist Church of Cadillac (the church in which I grew up). The name of this year’s show was “Monkey Business.” It was, of course, monkey themed, and a lot of fun. There were so many talented people who made the show […]

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Today is St. Patrick’s Day. Are you wearing green? (Actually, I’ve read that if you are Protestant, you wear orange, and wear green if you’re a Catholic. Oh well. I like green better.)

Playtah’s Profundity
If you’ve just started a new country and you’re trying to figure out a monetary system, here’s a bad idea for currency: bags of goats.
