That our ultimate picture of success is a crucified Messiah means any conversation about success will be incompatible with a "bigger is better" mentality

Hmm...Interesting

Change in Sports Interest

So, I've been playing NHL '10 on the PS3 lately. I've really been enjoying it. I used to get the NHL games every year, but this is the first time in a long time that I actually got one. I've noticed that because of this, now, I can't wait for the hockey season to begin. I'm beginning to like my favorite sport more than my next favorite sport again (that next favorite being college football). Even as I changed the channel to the Miami-Georgia Tech game, I find myself wishing that there was a hockey game on.

I wonder if I'll feel the same way on Saturday when the Gators host the Vols.

Hey Look, I'm Going to Ramble about Formula 1

again

A few weeks ago, Renault F1 was accused of fixing the race result for the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix. They reportedly ordered their number 2 driver, Nelson Piquet Jr., to crash in order to aid their number 1 driver, Fernando Alonso. As it so happens, Piquet did crash and Alonso won. This latest F1 controversy has been labeled "Crash Gate."

Remaining Lutheran

Why I Am What I Am and Why I Stay That Way

Some discussions around here lately have got me thinking. I guess you could say those discussions in addition to my current situation. And I want to say this right off the bat though it is difficult to say because I don't mean it how it looks. I am proud to be a Lutheran.

A Warning to Congress

Stupid Health Care

I've already written my current congressmen regarding O's health care reform bill (or desires or whatever). But, I want to put the word out here, so that it's seen and so that I remember it.

Two Words of Information

Let's Get This Straight

  • lightening - the process of changing to a lighter color or the process of adding light or the process of removing weight.
  • lightning - a discharge of atmospheric electricity

The local Fox station's morning news program reported that yesterday's shuttle launch was delayed due to "lightening strikes." Fox! They're the best of the bunch, but it seems that even they are not immune to poor editing and proofing. Man, the local stations' news crews are stupid!

Lightning strikes are good at lightening the night sky. Look, I used both words properly in a sentence!

It Just Doesn't Look Right

SciFi has become SyFy. Channel overlays have changed. Slogan has changed. Website has changed. I don't mind re-envisioning and the change that accompanies it, but this name change just doesn't look right...it's like they did this for their illiterate fans.

Movies

Just Thought I'd Share

Thanks to RedBox (and a free movie 1-night rental code), I watched a couple of new releases yesterday and this morning.

Uh Oh

What Did I Do?

So, I tried visiting http://www.whitehouse.gov/ this evening. We were curious what the Obamas named their daughters. Well, this is what I got:

Mission Accomplished

Every Day An Entry

So, with this post, I've have successfully posted to my blog at least once a day for 30 days. This also marks the 40th post this month. This is definitely the most posted month. This, then, is a recap, of sorts.
