On Consistency

Saturday, July 5th, 2008

I am finding that the various streams of my life seem to run in some similar directions. I don’t go to church. I don’t like doctors, I don’t like public education, and I don’t like government entitlement programs (or think very highly of governments in general). I work in an industry (Strategic Communications) where most […]

How much freedom will we settle for?

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

It’s been a long time . . .
Those who have access to my facebook page will see that it says I have been writing again, but they wouldn’t know it from looking at this blog. That is largely due to the fact that my writing, of late, has not been for public consumption . . […]

A Crisis of Fact

Monday, March 17th, 2008

Five months.
It has been five months since I last posted anything here. Last fall, the last few times I posted, I apologized for the scarcity of posts. This time I won’t, because I’m not sorry at all. I quite simply had nothing to say.
You see, for most of the last five months I’ve been going […]

Ecclesiastical Orphism

Friday, October 19th, 2007

Last night, my wife and I had a delightful evening out at an orchestra concert, but the object of our evening outage was no ordinary orchestra.
The fare for the evening was the world-renowned Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, which happened to be visiting the Strathmore Music Center in Bethesda, MD, where Heidi often freelances with the National […]

Who is John Galt?

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

The mysterious question that opens Ayn Rand’s epic novel Atlas Shrugged has now haunted the readers, seekers and thinkers who comprise her audience for fifty years, as of today. Rand’s philosophy of Objectivism finds its voice - and a great deal of its thought - in this book. I am not an objectivist. I consider myself […]

Random acts of thinking too much . . .

Thursday, October 4th, 2007

I don’t have the time or inclination to write one of my typical lengthy and involved posts, so I thought I’d share some of the more profound things that I’ve been reading and pondering of late . . .
 
I promise I hadn’t read this article by one of my favorite columnists, when I wrote my most recent […]

Profundity sometimes crops up in the strangest places . . .

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

It’s been a month now since I’ve posted here. I feel like I should apologize, but the truth is, I’m not terribly sorry for it. I only tend to write when I feel like I have something profound to say, and I haven’t felt that way much lately.
The short story I mentioned a month ago […]

Happenings . . .

Tuesday, August 28th, 2007

I find myself once again apologizing for having gone so long without posting. It has been an eventful last few weeks. My sister-in-law spent a week in the hospital with a burst appendix (she’s recovering quite nicely now), My wife got raked over the coals by an idiot doctor who doesn’t seem to believe that […]

A final observation . . .

. . . on the Slice of Laodicea/Naked Pastor dustup . . .

Slice of Laodicea

. . . just thought it was worth noting.

Nothing Personal

Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

I have tried, over the past week, to generate a few different posts on a few different topics, but found that I couldn’t bring myself to write them. I think, in looking back, that the reason for this grew out of the fact that they were all sort of interconnected in a way I hadn’t […]
