Fuller and Damon are really getting some miles out of the colored blocks. Damon is building stuff and Fuller is knocking it down. There are things about Fuller recently that have amazed us and cracked us up. Here are two examples,...
So today I haven't been avoiding my couch all that successfully. I've got a fresh stack of library books and a bunch of oreos and a little bit of a funk brewing. Today I went to lunch with...
If I still used subtitles on this blog it would read, “But Zero Percent Modern Liberal.” I found this quiz over at Jolly Blogger, where David Wayne scored as an Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan. While some questions were slam dunks,...
My self portrait today was inspired by a gift given to me by my mother-in-law: a magic scarf. We got another package this week, from Linda, with some Auburn related gear- license plates, stocking caps, and this SpiritMaker Magic Scarf....
After three days of sitting in my bedroom staring at a computer, I'm trying to figure out a way to post without sounding snarky. I really don't know if it can happen.Friday afternoon, the SOC released copies of the comprehensive...
Well well, the weekend started off just right. Friday at school was great and wasn't hard. The day seemed seemed to go faster. Work that night was fun until 60 soccer and basketball girls and boys decieded to eat at...
After more than 10 years of downtown revitalization Chattanooga is still hemorrhaging young professionals. Most young, talented people I know have either already moved away from Chattanooga, or are thinking about leaving. So why, after countless millions of dollars have...

You've heard the bit about greasing someone's palm to make things go smoothly? It doesn't have to be so crass. It's actually much simpler and sweeter. I make a point to just chat with people whenever possible. I was about to take...
The most important lesson about the Iraq War for reporters was perhaps the simplest one: Don't assume the White House is telling the truth. It's a lesson that many reporters seem to be forgetting now that US officials are escalating...
Una virtualidad. Este es el videoclip de la canción "Through the Fire and Flames" de DragonForce. Me ha dejado helado ver cómo tocan la guitarra esos dos. La pena: que muchos por el simple hecho de ver esas melenas o...

It’s been another good day. Emmie was still under the bili lights, as her indrect bili level was slightly down, but not quite enough. Her direct bili (liver related) was up though, so we’re not quite sure about...
