It’s about time for another poem, wouldn’t you agree? I wrote this poem in my high school Creative Writing class (where most of my first stuff is from). I have always loved to play football. Growing up I was one of those fast, skinny little kids that could run and [...]
I like to cause people to react. I like to say things surprising, silly and/or stupid and watch people’s faces for their reaction. If I do not get a reaction, then I have failed and I feel the need to try again, or to point out to them that they were supposed to [...]
The sounds of this song are, indeed, pretty cool. However, 2 min. 20 sec. (radio version) is more like an interlude, NOT a song.
Someone in the music industry is ignoring my rule: longer is better.
I have the new Ted Dekker book Obsessed. It was not supposed to be out until February, but I have mine.
Now to find the time to read it…:sad:
Wouldn’t you know. While I’m seeking to collect myself to type up my next heartfelt post, something like this happens:
My windshield wipers are almost useless. Luckily the driver’s side works OK, as long as I’m not going any faster than 50 MPH or so. After that, the wind pulls them away from [...]
I’m having a terrible time posting because when I write posts here at school, I don’t like them. The ones I write at home and bring in are better. The problem is that I don’t write at home. I have other things I want to do. So, well I try to [...]
For my birthday last November, the Doughtys adopted a monkey for me and presented it to me in grand celebration. His name is Ronnie and now my Triumverate is complete. I present to you Ramon, Ronnie and Brutus:
Ramon is the hyperactive troublemaker of the group. I believe he has the exact [...]
Here’s something I began writing…well over a year ago. I meant to go further, but never got back to it. It’s complete enough as is.
Here’s my reasoning for listening to Contemporary Christian Music (CCM):
1) I like the sound of the music. The music appeals to me. I like band music [...]
Here’s a short poem I wrote one night last fall. I was in bed and this idea suddenly came to me. It’s Shel Silverstein-esque. It has no name; it’s just a silly little thing:
The eye of the potato saw the fall
And the ear of the corn heard it all
But the mouth of [...]
In the spirit of New Year’s reflections, I contemplated recently the fact that it has been over five years since I rid myself of my television. In an “Open Letter to TV” style post I just wanted to say to television:
I do not miss your profanity. I do not miss your violence. [...]
Instead of the post I told you I was going to put up as to why I won’t watch Northern Exposure, I’m not posting anything for a couple of days so that people can read, digest and respond to my last 3 posts.
Check back on Friday for your answer.
“Perfect love is perfect vulnerability.” I heard this recently somewhere, but can’t remember where. That statement hit me pretty profoundly. I feel like I’m living it in my life. I’m sure I can’t claim perfect love, but I do know that if there is anything in this world that causes me [...]
Here’s a filler post, something I wanted to put up but doesn’t have anything to do with the current “new focus” of the site. My new focus won’t last anyway, so here’s to mixing things up a little:
Dairy Cattle Technology: A
Animal Breeding: A-
Senior Paper: A-
Hey Mike, does an A- count? [...]
Ahhh. I have finally returned. It’s good to see that the internet didn’t self-destruct without me.
I had plans for this website when I first created it. I’ve also had plenty of plans go through my head since then. I have wanted to share more of myself, my inner self, my feelings, [...]
