I just finished my second read through of C. S. Lewis’ “The Great Divorce”. It’s a small book like most of his works. No one can say he’s unnecessarily verbose. I guess I am really infatuated with the simplicity and succinctness of his thought ( Read more... )

I asked a question about a month or so ago ( Read more... )

I am feeling very guilty because I haven’t been writing in this journal at all. So much has happened and so many things are so far passed now that I missed them and they probably won’t ever make these pages. I have read through three books and numerous short stories and completed a few projects and come to a few resolutions ( Read more... )

Today I saw two men having a very good time just talking about how beautiful a woman they had seen was. They weren’t lewd about it or loud, just kinda playful and silly like only really hard working people can be. These two gardeners (I saw them get out of the truck) came into Carl’s Jr. (yes I still am eating badly) and they saw an older women ( Read more... )

I have been doing lots of random searches looking for different answers to some of the questions that have been rolling around in my mind lately. In one of those searches (geared towards allegory vs. intention) I stumbled upon some very unsettling facts. Elvis Costello, one of the idols of my music childhood is a flaming jerk.

Well it’s been a while since I have written anything here, but never fear I have been writing elsewhere! I have also been conducting an exhaustive amount of research on Deism. Also I have been hammering away on my clocks. I have finished the Christmas window display; it’s pretty cool. I have a table platform, on which I laid out a white sheet and ( Read more... )

Sometimes I can’t help but be negative. Actually I think most of the time I am just joking about something but it sounds negative and I don’t know maybe it is? The strange part of that last statement is it’s entirely true, I really don’t have any idea why I come off as negative a lot. It’s so bad many times I have to preface my statements with a - ( Read more... )

Ah the clocks are really coming along! I think I might actually be proud to hand these out. I mean they’re still kinda “woodshop” but I have strived in their creation to give them some character that is unique. Hopefully that’s how they will look rather then weird. Well you can’t make an omelet with braking a few eggs as they say ( Read more... )

Happy Turkey day all - I hope everyone had a great time and good eats ( Read more... )

So I am sitting in Carl’s Jr. right now. I am going to try one of their green burrito style tacos. My wife will be joining me shortly after she finishes taking care of all her people. She’s so good to everyone, I hope she feels like she has enough time for herself. Lots of really good people do so much for everyone else that they forget about their ( Read more... )
