Tuesday, November 01, 2011. This year is the first in a few that we didn't have a Harvest Festival at church. That was nice for me, since I'm usually involved in making the festival happen. So this time we got to relax and go trick-or-treating with the neighbors. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Simple template. Template images by luoman.

geekery.of.all.sorts: October 2008
http://jazzgeek.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Geekery.of.all.sorts. Friday, October 3, 2008. There's a fellow named Edward Tufte ( long 'E' - Tuff-tee ) who is the expert regarding how to make pictures that mean things. If you're into graphs ( aka 'information graphics' ) Tufte is your man. One of his concepts is that when you want to represent variation between similar things, you should take little snapshots and stick them side by side - he calls them 'Small Multiples'. Here are some examples:. Alex Rodriguez batting over three years. Despite the ...

Fun, Fabulous, Five: Pearl Photoshoot
http://my5boyz.blogspot.com/2010/06/pearl-photoshoot.html
Tuesday, June 15, 2010. Sunday was a beautiful day, so I decided to take the boyz to do their converse photoshoot I'd been planning for a long time. Had the shoes all ready to go a couple of weeks ago, but then we had the Noah's flood reenactment. Soooo, here it is. I do have to say that I was the only adult during this shoot and managing 5 (FIVE! Really, it is a surprise ANY of these photos turned out, it would've been much funnier if I'd been shooting with a video cam ;). June 15, 2010 at 6:42 PM.

Geekery.of.all.sorts. Monday, September 21, 2009. I've decided to throw a grenade today. I think I've been taught for too long that the Cross is the whole point of God's plan. I’m taking a stand today and saying salvation by grace through faith is not THE BIG TRUTH of Christianity. That rumbling you hear is Luther and thousands of protestant church fathers rolling over in their graves. Now, what am I trying to do by baiting you this way? If the Kingdom is what's on God's mind all through the old and new ...

Geekery.of.all.sorts. Saturday, August 8, 2009. So I went shopping today to find a saxophone for Katy. Now, cheap saxes run about 600 - 6 bills is a lot of dough for the Dad, on any day. But I walk into ye olde pawn shoppe here in town, and play 5 or 6 horns, looking for something that will work good - and I find something interesting. The cloth on the case is a dead giveaway that we're looking at something that's a few years old. However, I have the sneaking suspicion that theres something here - old ho...

Geekery.of.all.sorts. Sunday, December 27, 2009. Boil the Milk, Make-a the sauce. Jennifer, Davin and I watched Julie and Julia the other day, just before Christmas. For those of you who don’t know, it’s a sweet movie about a woman who decides to spend a year cooking her way through Julia Child’s. Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Well, Jenn went and bought me the cookbook for Christmas. Here’s my first status report:. I cooked a ham on Christmas day, on Christmas day, on Christmas day…and lo, t...

Geekery.of.all.sorts. Monday, August 30, 2010. Jesus is the word of God. I've been thinking about Jesus and his title 'The Word of God', for a while now.here's some notes. I was first introduced to this as a serious angle of study and major theme of the New Testament ( rather than a nice verse in John 1 ) when I read 'Prayer' by a German theologan named Hans Urs von Balthasar. http:/ www.amazon.com/Prayer-Hans-Urs-von-Balthasar/dp/0898700744. Two major passages unpack Jesus identity as the Word - Everyon...

Geekery.of.all.sorts. Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Notes from John 2:13 - John 3:20. Although there’s a chapter break separating them, I think that the story covered in John 2:13-3:20 reads as one piece. Jesus had just busted up the temple courts and made a big splash in Jerusalem around passover, claiming to be able to rebuild the temple in three days, etc. Nicodemus: seeker or pharisee? Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council. Some time ago I was re...

Geekery.of.all.sorts. Tuesday, July 13, 2010. I'm sitting here in my hotel room, and thought I'd write a little about my trip so far. I'm having a really good time. When I'm on a trip by myself that usually meansI wander wherever I feel like going until I'm ready to keel over. Here's a map of my wanderings today. View Darren's Tuesday walk. In a larger map. So my jeans, socks, shirt and shoes are drying on the chair, and I'm relaxin'. . Testing out posterous.com. Cross-post to blog and facebook.
