I’m still here…

Weblogs

It’s been pretty quiet on this blog. I apologize for that. I’m still here and still trying to find some time to write. I suppose it’s good news that I haven’t found time to say anything. We’ve been so busy at the Cathedral this fall with a large increase in new members (especially in our spanish-language congregation) that we’re all scrambling to keep a lid on all the pots that are wonderfully boiling over. Between […]

And now we are one!

Weblogs

Jim Naughton, the editor in chief of Episcopal Café posted this on the “Lead” blog this morning: “We are celebrating our first anniversary today. We actually began operations in this incarnation on April 19, but we’ve decided that today is easier to remember, and probably represented the first day we had most of the bugs worked out and were getting a relatively clean read on our Web statistics. We’d like to thank all of our […]

Fixin’ me software

Weblogs

Hi all. Today’s my day off. I’m sitting here at the house doing my chores (laundry, gardening, cleaning) and I remembered that I’ve been having problems with one of the programs (MacJournal) that I prefer to use for writing longish posts and essays for this here. I’ve had it for so long, and mucked about with it’s internals that it’s managed to get itself completely confused about how to communicate as a client with the […]

The Mosher Pit » “Tag”

Books / Weblogs

One of my online friends wrote this yesterday: “The funny thing about being tagged in a “what are you reading” meme (as I was by Jamie Notter) is that I do much of my reading through audiobooks, so the book I’m currently reading doesn’t have a page number, although I could dig up the physical copy of the book if I looked around enough, that’s not true of most audiobooks I “read.” See, I have […]

Me and my clever mouth…

Weblogs

Heh. A few months ago, after the announcement of what looked to be a large quantity of hydrocarbons were detected on the one of the moons of Saturn, I blogged about it by reporting that “A Massive” new reserve of oil has been discovered. Clever me huh? Over the last two days, something like a third of my hits have come from people following links from Google Searches for “Oil reserve discoveries”. Silly Google. (Another […]

Writer’s Block

Weblogs

I’ve been struggling with finding a desire to write just about anything since the beginning of this past fall. I think I know the reason – which has to do with some family issues – and rather than rage against the void, I decided I’d be better served by just going along with the blockage. Luckily it seems to have mostly effected my online essay output, not my sermon output. (Though truth be told, my […]

Anglicans Online, “A little help please?”

Weblogs

Anglicans Online, the site that began the process which created the constellation of Anglican websites is looking for some help. From their front page: “For the first time in 11 years, we’re taking the cry of the Bereans as our own: Come over and help us! We could use some assistance. We welcome people who might like to be a part of this venerable website, one of the oldest on the web and perhaps the […]

Back to the past…

Weblogs

I’ve gotten bored with the “red” design. It was just too blah. So I’ve gone “back” to a design that’s based on one I used a for a while (and really liked.) The masthead picture (btw) is from a margin illustration in one of the Gospels in the Book of Kells. I’ve finally gotten around to updating the “blog roll” on the left too. I think I’ve listed everyone that I make a habit of […]

Flying Spaghetti Monster Prank

Weblogs

This is an April Fools day joke worthy of the students at MIT: “Members of the Crossville, TN Chapter of The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster have installed a giant Flying Spaghetti Monster statue outside The Cumberland County Courthouse in Crossville, Tennessee.” Read the fool story here.

Amazing pas de deux

Weblogs

As someone who used to dance (modern, not ballet) trust me when I tell you, this is one of the most extraordinary demonstrations of athleticism that I’ve ever seen… And the frogs are pretty cool too. Thanks to Craig+ for the pointer.
