  • 1 yr. old just took a dive in the tub. Ending the day much as it began. #
  • Why did I not read Biblical Theology of the Old and New Testaments by Brevard S. Childs at PTSem? I feel like I missed something important. #
  • Marsden’s book on Fundamentalism is calling my name among others, but I have to silence it for now. Damn the dissertation. #
  • Evan wakes up at 1am. Alex wakes up at 4:30 am. Both wake up at 7am. Alex starts day in timeout for hitting evan. Paradise. #
  • I opened up my efficiency can this AM and got about 7 tasks done. About to get another paper off my desk. The Kingdom of God is upon me. #
  • My God I’m tired. Going home. Designers…make it work! #

  • @targuman wish I was there (maybe). ELI this year focused on 2.0 applications for higher edu. and it was well done. #
  • @shanafme nope. we are sooo done. #
  • @skerlin zotero is way cool. Does not have the referencing power of Refworks or Endnote, but great for cataloguing the web. #
  • Kid Rock’s Song "Amen": Nice sentiment, boring execution. And he still can’t sing. #
  • VH1 is talking to Kid Rock in Retching…or Reading, PA. So much for MSG Kid. Welcome to the D list. #
  • Want a Top 40 hit? Pick up a corporate sponsor and look good doing it. Eg. Why 99% of Top 40 music sucks. #
  • My wife’s word of the day: "Lanai" in referece to a patio. Man do we need spring weather. OK. Naptime to let my body work on Lyme disease. #
  • Is it acceptable to sedate your kids? They refuse to nap! %#@$! #
  • How about a little vial of liquid ether I can drop into the humidifier or something… Is that ethical, or possible? #
  • Who needs rest when coffee - nap in a cup - is here with us. #
  • Going to contemporary worship tonight - dunno. I am a 21st century guy who still digs 19th century worship. #
  • Here are 2 reasons why contemporary worship is not my favorite: a) love/romantic songs to God that are b) not all that "contemporary". #

  • Is now thinking his 10th Anniversary gift to @btatusko is probably going to be a trip to the urologist. #
