These are the “7 Deadly Social Sins” that he considered to be the most dangerous to humanity. 7 Deadly Social Sins Wealth without Work Pleasure without Conscience Science without Humanity Knowledge without Character Politics without Principle Commerce without Morality Worship [...]

Learning How To Die

I just bought the Winter EP by Jon Foreman, the frontman of the band Switchfoot. I like Switchfoot but I’ve thought that they’ve kinda wandered from the roots of their first couple of CDs. This EP by Jon Foreman reminds me of the deep, thoughtful lyrics I remember on Learning To Breathe and Beautiful Letdown [...]

My Own Fan Artwork!

I’m getting so popular that my fans are creating their own fan artwork! How cool is that? I feel so special. Brad Simpson Props go out to Ramon for creating this. I think I look pretty good with blue hair.

Reese’s Whipps

Has anyone tried the new Reese’s Whipps? I’ve enjoyed the classis Reese’s creations for years now so I’m reluctant to abandon the old peanut butter cups. But the right side of my brain won and convinced me to try something different. I saw this at a gas station and decided to give it a try. [...]

YouTube is Down!

As of 10:30 this morning YouTube is down so you won’t be able to watch the video in my last post. Please check back later to watch it. It’s kind of funny how much we take common sites like YouTube for granted. I can only imagine how much data flows through its servers on an [...]
