The Bee Problem
As you may know from following my blog through the years, I post many different things - happenings from my life, humorous pieces, political ramblings, etc. You may also have noticed that I tend to mention God in many of these topics. It’s only when you wrestle with God-issues yourself that you can really begin […]

Picture Time
As you may know, I am currently down in North Carolina on a business trip. Our office is in this building:
It’s in an office park, and I usually sit in my car next to the fountain and pond during my lunch:
This weekend I went to Holden Beach, NC. I took some great pictures on film […]

Wisdom of the Generations
This is a story my Dad told my sister and I when we were little. It’s gotten me through some hard times.
Once upon a time, there was a little boy. He was a normal little boy in every respect, except that he had been born with a gold screw in his bellybutton. The kids at […]

Nothin’ Could Be Fine-a…
…than to be in Carolina.
Well, there could be, like being in Hawaii. But I digress.
I got in between 11 and 12 on Sunday night, picked up my rental car, and made it to my hotel room. It’s actually been somewhat chilly here–probably the tail end of the storms–but the trees all have leaves and it’s […]

Interview With Me
My best friend Rachel interviewed me.
1. What was the best part of your mission trips to Singapore & Greece? What was the worst part?
The best part of the Greece trip was the sightseeing. We went to the Acropolis, Mars Hill, Corinth, Delphi, etc. It’s an amazing land with an amazing history (and you know […]

And Most Importantly, Protect Your Blowholes From IEDs
I saw this in a story on CNN.com:
Koa, an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin, will do anything for a fresh fish — including alerting her U.S. Navy handlers to potential terrorists…
…Even in today’s high-tech world of underwater robotics and unmanned vehicles, the Navy says animals like Koa are its best line of defense against attacks from the […]

Lots of Different Stuff in One Post
This morning I looked out the window at a goose that was honking in my snowy back yard. Every time it honked, I could see its breath.
That’s just wrong.
On the upside, I’ll be in North Carolina on Sunday night, enjoying their 60-80 degree weather. The company already made my plane, hotel, and rental […]

Actual Instant Message Between Me and My Supervisor
Supervisor: Do you know how to look up your IP address?
Me: I’d have to stretch out if I’m going to look up my own.

Imus Rant for a Moment
If you’ve been watching the news lately, you know that Don Imus is taking heat for referring to the Rutgers women’s basketball team as “nappy-headed hos”. Many people, including Al Sharpton, are calling for his firing. Please allow me a two-part rant.
Part 1: Don Imus
Seriously, unless a person has been under a rock […]

That’s Not An Easter Egg
For two nights this weekend, I slept in the same bed as Winston, whom I have known for less than a week.
Don’t worry - it was all innocent, as it should be, since Winston is a golden retriever.
I frequently housesit for a wonderful couple who travel a lot. When I first started housesitting years […]
