Editor’s note: Hello again! I rarely write here anymore, and when I do, it is usually my year-end music review or some far-out sports-related thought. Here’s something a little different. It’s been a rough week for Dave Ramsey on the internet. The wildly popular Christian financial guru has been roundly criticized for this blog post (criticism […]

CauseWorld: Make your shopping count
I’m back from the dead again, I know. I thought I’d use this platform, for whatever it’s worth, to mention a new app that’s been released for iPhone and Android. It’s called CauseWorld, and here’s the basic premise: Corporations pledge to donate money to charities based on your shopping visits to certain stores. You don’t […]
Twenty-six
It’s been over a month since I last checked in around here, but I promise I’ve been keeping busy. Busy enough not to blog, at least. I don’t have a reflective birthday post for today, either, but I suppose I’m turning 26 whether I have one or not. Time tends to pass regardless of a […]
Bisons topple Reddies + Other Notes
Thursday night, the Bisons defeated Henderson State 73-60, evening their GSC record at 4-4. They needed to win that one, since it’s arguably their easiest conference game, and the schedule only gets tougher from this point forward. Kevin Brown and Trent Morgan each had 19 points, although Morgan required 18 shots to get to his […]
Faith – An Invitation
I’ve let the post topics get a little monotonous lately around here. I certainly have more going on than following Harding basketball games and baseball’s hot stove. Melissa and I are getting closer to finishing our basement; I’ve been playing in a rec basketball league (averaging a whopping 4.5 ppg in two games for the […]
Home win streak continues for Bisons against Southern Arkansas
It’s hard to stop a team that shoots threes well and does it consistently. The Bisons don’t do the latter, but they were lights-out last night from beyond the arc, making 14 of 27 outside shots as a team. It was just one of those games where everyone hit their shots, and SAU just couldn’t […]
What I'm thankful for in 2008
Pretty much everyone has something to complain about these days. Most people around the world have been affected in some way by the flailing economy. Some people are very sad this time of year because the holidays always remind them of some kind of traumatic event that happened during a previous holiday season. Others hurt […]
On the iPhone and other notes
I’ve been MIA on the blog for a week or two now, and even longer if you’ve been waiting for some kind of sports analysis. The Braves being out of contention will do that to a person, but I do plan to update the stats as the season closes. Every year, I always regret when […]
The Diaper List
Inspired by a recent movie called The Bucket List, my friend Brandon started referring to his own version of such a list. Unlike the stars of the movie (Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson), his list isn’t about what he wants to do before he dies (or “kicks the bucket”). Rather, he has what he calls […]
Braves Check: Halfway Home
The Braves are going to have to start winning series against teams like the Brewers and Blue Jays if they’re going to make a serious run at the playoffs. A 2-4 week is not a good week, regardless of who’s hurt. Five of the eight starting position players (everyone except Teixeira, McCann, and Francoeur) are […]
