  • Changed my blog's tagline

    So, I changed my blog’s tagline to more accurately reflect what I actually do here.  It previously said  something about helping people understand the Old Testament, which I think the rest of my website does and which I do on my blog sometimes.  But, that’s not really an entirely accurate description of what I do…

  • Even more cowbell!

    In light of my previous post I thought this none other than divine providence. I was walking through the parking lot at my local grocery store and there it was … Cowbell attached to the bumper. Best part … It’s purple and plastic:

  • Now that the BiblioBlog Rankings …

    suck and should die, I suppose I should say a few words.  I don’t think that’s the case.  In fact, I think that what the BiblioBlog rankings really need is more cowbell: I will try to add a cowbell track to the next set of rankings that I post. Now, that’s funny no matter who…

  • If you were wanting to run BibleWorks 8 on your Mac …

    now might be a decent time to think about it. Parallels is currently $15 off (normally $79 and currently $64).  That lasts through April 15th and they’re throwing in some free tax software too.  If your not sure about running Windows on your Mac, they also have a 15 day free trial version if you…

  • There is more scripture at the Easter Vigil …

    than you probably get in many churches in a month.  You can check out the readings for Easter here.  The Easter vigil is probably my favorite mass of the year as it is for many people.  Unfortunately, we’ll be unable to attend this year.  In our parish it is from 8-11pm (or round about), which…

  • Tim Bulkeley on Exodus 32

    A couple of weeks back I posted a video pointing out that there are a couple of differing opinions in the text about who exactly led the people out of the land of Egypt.  That video sparked an audio post by Tim Bulkeley on his 5MinuteBible.com.  Check out my video and his audio explanation.

  • One thing you can accomplish when you blog less …

    You can exercise more and meet your weight loss goals. I made a bet against myself at the beginning of February. If I didn’t lose 15 pounds in two months I had to give away my iPhone. Well here I am 16 pounds lighter:

  • And the BiblioBlogger of the Month for March is …

    Once again … *Joel Watts* And, congrats also to our new number two BiblioBlogger James McGrath.  He has taken over the spot formerly held by none other than me.  But that’s what happens when James keeps writing good stuff (except all that silly stuff about LOST, which I cannot even begin to fathom why anyone…

  • Rankings later

    Just wanted to drop everyone a line that the rankings will be up later this evening or first thing tomorrow. My baby girl turns 6 today … 🙂 or 🙁 I don’t know how to feel. Anyway, we’ll be celebrating all day… literally. My wife and I are going on a field trip with her…

  • For Pete's Sake Would Someone Please Break Joel's Blog …

    The world would be a much better, smarter place. Spare us all!!! You can attempt this heroic feat HERE.
