first ever contest!

Just as the Supercinski’s were inspired to offer contests on their blog by their friends, so too they have inspired me. That said, I welcome you to the first ever, online diary for the masses contest.
As you should know by now, I’m going to be loving people in Brenham this summer and getting paid to [...]

the picture that should have been…

Jon, doing his thing… He tied with Colby for first, JB in third, and myself in a distant fourth.

let it be known…

I’m at home in Arlington for the week, and I’ve done a few things that are worth blogging about. However, I have no way of transferring my pictures from my camera to the computers here in A town. If you are new to this area, and you don’t see a problem with a blog sans [...]

"the sub that hacks"

Being the college graduate that I am, I’ve been thrown from putting all my expenditures on my parents tab, and have been forced to generate some cash flow of my own.

book review vol. four: A New Kind of Christian

That’s right, I finished another book. I actually finished this one a few days ago and am just now getting around to reviewing/ discussing it for you. It’s called “A New Kind of Christian” and it’s by Brian McLaren who is often labeled as the poster child for the Emergent Church Movement.
