I’m a maaan, baby!
At least, in my writing I am.
The other day I came across an application called Gender Genie, which allegedy can suss out if a writer is male or female by studying a piece of writing . I tested several of my own samples, from this blog and others, ranging in topic from [...]
"I was never a Liberal."- David EmersonA befuddled-looking Emerson then quickly walked away from the podium mumbling, "And I was never a man either", as he pointed down to his hot pink, high-heeled pumps.
One morning a blind bunny was hopping down the bunny trail and tripped over a large snake and fell, kerplop! right on his twitchy little nose.'Oh please excuse me,' said the bunny. 'I didn't mean to trip over you, but I'm blind and can't see.''That's perfectly all right,' replied the snake. 'To be sure, it was my fault. I didn't mean to trip you, but I'm blind too, and I didn't see you coming. By
I've been thinking way too much lately about the fact that there are several hundred blogs with the title "Mommy" in them. And that's not a bad thing, it's just that I like to be different. Or is it difficult? Anyway....I was thinking I wanted a catchier blog title...something that could sum me up in one word or two...something memorable.Am I nuts?Of course there would be the serious pain in th

Occasionally a movie will find its way to my DVD player and leave me wondering how in the hell it hasn’t infiltrated greater cult circles. In Atlantis Interceptors’ case, I’m sure it has something to do with it landing between Cannibal Holocaust and Cut and Run in Ruggero Deodato’s career. The House on [...]
The Right Conception: Jesus is I AM The I AM Jesus is perfect love. The I AM Jesus has always been and always will be. The I AM Jesus loves sinners, and judges sin. The I AM Jesus is both a forgiving God, and a just judge. The I AM Jesus spoke the world into existence and breathed the breath of life into every human being. The I AM Jesus bore the sin of the world on His body and bruised the
(make sure you've read parts 1 & 2 before continuing)Misconception #2: “Jesus is a Tyrant” The tyrant mentality is the polar opposite. It says this: “Since Jesus hates sin and especially hates when I sin, He is up there in heaven somewhere waiting for me to mess up again so that He can slap another ticket on the windshield of my life.” The tyrant mentality views Jesus as the cop wit
(If you haven't read part 1, click here and do that now before continuing.)When Moses asked God what name He should use in defending his authority before pharaoh, God simply said, “I AM WHO I AM” (Exodus 3:14). I love Louie Giglio’s explanation of I AM:It’s an amazing name. In Hebrew the word for I AM is Hayah. Hayah carries with it the idea of the very breath of God. In English the name I AM translates into the verb to be. Or simply be. Therefore God’s name is Be. I AM – I Be. I AM is the present tense, active form of the verb to be. As God’s name, it declares that He is unchanging, constant, unending, always present, always God. (Louie Giglio, I Am Not But I Know I AM, p. 38.)That’s an amazing title. Think of I AM as one of the top steps in a series of escalating
I'm excited to say that my first book, The Discovery: Beyond the Jesus of Flapjacks and Grilled Cheese is in the production stage, and should be out in about a month or so. We had a tiny set-back in production, but now things are rolling. It's a 21-day devotional journey through the Gospel of John geared toward students and young adults. I'm pretty psyched about it! I'm praying that God will use it way beyond what I'm capable of doing in my own strength. It will be available on Amazon.com shortly after it's release next month. I'll keep you updated. But for now, here's the first of several posts I'll do using excerpts from the book. Also, in honor of Flashback Friday, this seems appropriate!Chapter 8 - Identity CrisisThere’s no feeling that leaves you quite as vulnerable and help
NEW RELEASE:On Store Shelves NowANNUALS or is it SUNFOLD or both? Annuals released the Wet Zoo EP album earlier this month. Absentmindedly, I popped it into my CD player and listened. Despite only sporting five tracks, the record still found a way to sound disjointed. The final pair of songs on the album were considerably different from the first three. I did a little research (which amongst other things, involved me actually reading the CD literature and going the extra step to reading the press release which accompanied it in the mail.) Wet Zoo is five songs new songs, but only three are from the Annuals. The last two are Sunfold - the reconstituted Annuals (same players, different roles.)Whereas Annuals is led by Singer-Songwriter Adam Baker, The side project Sunfold (formerly known as
These children cannot tell the difference between a flat image on a screen and a real, three-dimensional person. No wonder Superboy was able to keep these cretins from deducing his secret identity all those years.
Sigh – none of the virals that I wanted to post have enough of the “Easter spirit” for Sarah M's approval. That being said they do have insanely attractive women, wicked soundtracks, and gratuitous grinding of bodies.
But this was this enough? No – Eastery was the command. Happy smiling babies. Chocolate. So I dumped the awesome clips that I had and went in search of something more Eastery. Eventually I had to do a time warp back in order to find this 1988 commercial.
I feel like my teeth are going to rot.
Comment on "Bunny with an identity crisis"
If the different countries have different visions, why do they need to band together? I doubt that, at this point, Europeans will fight each other. The United States and Canada don't need a common constitution to have strong economic and cultural ties. And we're certainly not going to war. Anyways, it seems like wasted energy on their part.

One that may have been ommitted from continuity years ago too, in fact.When reading one of the replies to this thread on Comics Should Be Good, that's certainly what I'm beginning to think now anyway.And it makes sense. That many of the worst stories of today are based on some of the worst ones of yore.Spooky.
Here is a hot indie designer that I just discovered this morning thanks to Crystalyn's links (thanks Crystalyn!). Identity Crisis is the brainchild of designer Karly Hand. She produces clothing and accessories that are unique, comfortable, and super cute. Each piece is made to order by hand in Austin, TX. Just check out the stuff I picked above. First there is the "Pretty Pretty Princess Floral Contrast" top that is just divine. And how about that genius "Sleeve Purse"? It has a built-in sleeve to keep it on your shoulder and comes in a variety of colors. The skirt? That's my favorite. The "Kinetic Skirt" goes from long to mini with the pull of a cord and stays where you want it with a handy little clip. How awesome is that? This is one designer that is definitely worth the time to check out.Choose your identity...*click*:{ Technorati Tags }:shopping, indie designer, fashion
One of the first complaints you'll hear about an emerging ethnic influence in any country is that the indigenous culture and identity is being diluted. Understanding the national identity is probably not the most pressing matter for an economic migrant entering a country by shipping container. Finding somewhere to stay and having food to eat could be considered more relevant in the alien's eyes.Pity then that these containers don't come equipped with a welcome pack that would ease the transition. Imagine a guide to Ireland for Brazilian factory workers who, sans the language and a working permit, go to work packing meat in Roscommon. There might be sections on "How to order a breakfast roll in Gweedore" or "The Game of Shinty" and so on. Think of how assured these workers would feel then.But that compilation would be as easy as what was put together as Old Moore's Almanac. We're Irish and what it means to be that way is as clear as Eamon Casey's conscience. The British on the ot
