Okay, firstly, let me assure all of you that I'm not about to fly into a rant about "liberals stealing Christmas" or "Santa=Satan" or anything weird like that. Just have a few thoughts to get out is all....

Today, as many of you are assuredly aware, was "Black Friday" (aka the day after Thanksgiving). For those unaware, Black Friday is the biggest ( Read more... )

Okay, not really. Not even close, actually. I just needed a clever subject line...and I do realize that it really wasn't even that clever. So, mission failed, I suppose.

Anyway, as some of you may know, last week I was in St. Louis with the other editors of the Valley Forge for the National Media Convention. It was a pretty good time...I'd take me a ( Read more... )

So I've been thinking a bit about the Flood.

The biblical Flood, that is. You know, Noah and the ark and the animals and whatnot.Sw

I've been thinking about it off and on since the Great Flood of Rockford.

Before I say anything more, I thought I'd post the actual story of the Flood from the Bible, which can be found in Genesis 6 - 8. If you know it ( Read more... )

Whoo. It's been a good, long while since I've posted an actual blog of any kind. I apologize in advance, as this may appear vaguely novel-esque by the time I'm done writing it.

I'll start out by saying that today was one hell of a doozy of a day. Not only did I have to work at 9 a.m. today, the weather was less-than-stellar so nobody wanted to do ( Read more... )

Jeez, I've been a bit of a procrastinator these past few weeks, haven't I?

First the Superman Returns review, and here I am again, having still not posted a C-Stone write-up or a review for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.

Well, I figure at the very least I could do a quick write-up of this past Cornerstone.

In short, it was one of the most ( Read more... )

As of 3 pm today, I'll be leaving for the Cornerstone Christian Music Festival out in Bushnell, IL. I'll be gone until Saturday. Feel free to leave comments or whatever ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I updated just about my life in general, so I thought I'd post a rundown about what's been going on this summer.

By the by, to those that asked, yes, that Superman Returns review is still coming. It'll be posted before I leave for Cornerstone on Tuesday, promise.

Anyway, where to begin?

For starters, Chris and I have been ( Read more... )

I've been looking into Scientology a bit recently (yes, the Tom Cruise religion). Oddly enough, I've found some really chilling information on a website usually aimed at humor.

Firstly, take a look at this video. Some images may be a bit disturbing.

The creator of the first vid recently created a follow-up video. These videos, particularly the first ( Read more... )

I found this over at SuperDickery, and it was so absurd I just had to post it here...

Keep in mind, that this is a REAL comic book cover. It has not been altered in any way, shape, or form...and judging by the 10 cent price tag, it's a pretty old one at that...
