Song Lyric of the Week

Boy, is it Thursday already? It sure is, and that means it’s time for the Song Lyric of the Week. Same as usual, the rules are simple: I post a lyric, you guess (without using Google or other search tools) what song it’s from. Are you ready? Drop a dime in the box play the […]

Waiting For Lunch

As I came home this afternoon, I was being watched. Sitting on a stone wall under our deck was this fine bird, giving me the eye.He didn’t move at all as I drove in, so I went upstairs and got my camera and was pleasantly surprised that he was still there when I returned. I […]

Gears of War – Working Together

I know, I know – I decided on Splinter Cell:Double Agent over Gears of War and other games. But this past week I rented and as my XBox 360’s Blog points out I’ve been playing Gears of War with my sons and online friends, and I’m impressed. Graphics, story, music and sounds, and especially the […]

New CSI for an Old Crime

I read a fascinating book this weekend, Ian Wilson’s Murder At Golgotha. Subtitled “Revisiting the Most Famous Crime Scene in History,” it’s an interesting look at Jesus’ crucifixion and other events during Holy Week from a forensic and analytic perspective. While not proving the Bible to be 100% factually correct (neither completely possible nor necessary […]

Song Lyric of the Week Answer

And can you, can you imagine fifty people a day,I said fifty people a day walking in singin a bar of Alice’s Restaurant and walking out. And friends they may thinks it’s a movement. That’s right, yesterday’s Song Lyric of the Week was from none other than Arlo Guthrie’s lengthy anti-war song Alice’s Restaurant Massacree. […]

Song Lyric of the Week

Well, I started thinking about today’s Song Lyric of the Week posting and quickly realized that there was only one song that would do on Thanksgiving. This one should be super-obvious for those of you who’ve heard it, and for those who haven’t… you need to find a copy, sit down and listen for a […]

One “Last” GTD Post

I’ve been beating the GTD drum recently, and several months ago moved my email, address book and other daily tools to my PowerBook so here’s one last (for the time being anyway) for others who are interested in both who might not be ready to dive into KGTD: an old HawkWings posting, on Getting Things […]

Song Lyric of the Week Answer

Wow, I didn’t think last week’s Song Lyric of the Week was that obscure, but apparently not many people have listened carefully to U2’s latest CD, How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, or the lyrics of Crumbs From Your Table. Drew knew it was U2 but couldn’t place the song, but his email was the […]

Song Lyric of the Week

I know, it’s late – I’ve been off the net most of the day – but here’s this week’s Song Lyric of the Week. It’s another one that should be fairly easy for regular readers here, let’s see how you do. As before, the rules are simple: I post a lyric, you guess what song […]
