This is Why I Love Blogging

When the author of a book I'm reviewing comments on my review.

Mazda 5 Shopping

Thursday, February 23rd, 2006 Posted in Transportation | 3 Comments »

I grew up being obsessed with cars, and while I'm not a complete car nut today, I do still like cars. I like envisioning a new car and trying to figure out what vehicle would be fun to drive and ...

Hunt with Cheney or Ride with Kennedy?

Thursday, February 16th, 2006 Posted in Politics | 6 Comments »

Here I am, back in the realm of politics. My dad sent me this bumper sticker yesterday and even commented on my VP shooting post, which I guess shows you the power of the VP shooting somebody to bring people ...

The Six Figure FBI Writer

Wednesday, February 15th, 2006 Posted in Writing | No Comments »

Everybody always says I'm in the wrong business if I want to get rich, but apparently not. I'm just working for the wrong people. The FBI is hiring a writer and they list the salary range as $91,407-$118,828. That's six figures for ...

Vice President Shoots Some Guy

Monday, February 13th, 2006 Posted in Politics | 3 Comments »

I don't usually jump into the political realm with this blog, but this story of Vice President Dick Cheney shooting Austin attorney Harry Whittington during a quail hunting trip is just bizarre. Apparently Whittington came up behind the group unannounced ...

What Do You Believe?

Monday, February 13th, 2006 Posted in God, Church & Stuff | 4 Comments »

I'm working on a sidebar for an article about apologetics in a Christian magazine and I need some help. I'm looking for quotes about what people believe and I'm hoping you'll provide the quotes. So, what do you believe? Specifically about ...

My Very Own Squidoo Lenses

Saturday, February 11th, 2006 Posted in Internet | No Comments »

Today I became a lensmaster. No, that's Lens Crafters. And no, it's not some D&D thing. It's another funky Web 2.0 deal (I hate the 'Web 2.0' lingo, but it's practical. What are you gonna do?) like Flickr or MySpace. It's ...
