Building of the Lego minifigs

One of things I’m most looking forward to about having a baby is the unavoidable Lego, once the baby levels-up to child.
Gizmodo have yet another exclusive Lego video. I don’t recall if I posted the last one… I can’t find it here when I search. Here’s the links. Anyway, the new video is a demo […]

Facebook - Too many stupid fan pages

Your account has been disabled by an administrator. If you have any questions or concerns, you can visit our FAQ page here.
I’ve decided there are too many fan pages for people I think it’s silly to declare yourself a fan of. The catalyst for me has been Christian leaders and teachers. These are good people […]

Mike in Angola

I should have posted this a couple of weeks ago, but I didn’t get round to it. My good friend Mike Livingston is in Angola at present interning at a bush hospital. He’s been blogging about his adventures (and is a good writer). I recommend.

The family, it grows

I feel quite a bit like that.

re: blogging

A friend of mine just started a new blog, hit it up at jitabeat.com. He’s a very cool guy with immeasurably more DJ experience than I.
He posted the requisite “about blogging” post, yesterday. For my own records more than anything else, here’s why and what I blog:

Visit to Toronto, in September and October

I just booked flights for Maija and I to visit Toronto later this year. We’ll be there from September 26th till October 28th! It’ll be oh so lovely. We’ll be staying in the Etobicoke area, to allow me convenient access to work.
Exciting :)

Guess what’s coming to dinner

I have to take a moment here to praise Battlestar Galactica. If you’re not watching it, or have never watched it, just do yourself a favour and pick up the DVDs. You’ll be in for some of the greatest television ever. If you don’t know what the show is about, that’s fine, you’ll like it. […]

UK trip, May 08

We’re having a great time on our UK visit. We arrived at midnight on Monday, and spent the night with Rob King in London. Great to catch up, albeit briefly. Then we took the Megabus to Sheffield and spent Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday morning with Mark & Bethany & Adelaide. Had a wonderful time, so […]

nakedpastor

I’ve just added nakedpastor.com to my feeds. I read a few of his recent posts and very much enjoy his perspectives. Here’s some of his artwork that I find particularly brilliant:

And a book review:
I just finished studying Frank Viola’s and George Barna’s recent book, Pagan Christianity: Exploring the Roots of Our Church Practices. I want […]

Arranging my thoughts

I was challenged by something Faytene Kriskow said at Freshwind. Something along the lines of: “I don’t really watch movies, I don’t spend time doing that. Honestly, I’d rather be making movies that watching them”.
Which is a bit how I feel, but I haven’t been doing much about it. I just finished Season 2 of […]
