A Busy Day

This was a busy day! I have a major project that needs to be completed tomorrow by 5:00 PM so I’m in crunch mode as I try to get that put to rest. It looks now like we’ll have to launch the site in a slightly stripped-down form, but it should still be functional. We’ll just have to tack on the rest of the site after it launches. I’ve been busy enough that I haven’t been able to read more than the back covers of the four books I got for my birthday.

I’m also working on a redesign of this site. “Why?” you ask. Well, I am trying to make more information more accessible. I’m also trying to make a site that conforms to all the HTML and CSS validation rules. So far so good. I’m looking for a few people to test-drive the new site, which should launch as soon as this weekend, so if you’re interested, post a comment or drop me a line and I’ll send you the link. If you’re a photographer and have any good pictures that are short and wide (ie 200 pixels high by 750 wide) that would look nice as a banner, let me know!

    Disrupted Journey

    I am convinced it is appropriate to acknowledge those who bear with chronic pain and illness and that it is especially fitting to give special honor to do those who do so with a deep sense of submission to God’s mysterious purposes in their suffering. But if that’s true, I believe it is also appropriate…

    Nick Would Be 25 Years Old Today

    I don’t why we place more emphasis on some birthdays than others. Why is 16 more significant than 17? Why are multiples of 5 more significant than multiples of 4 or 6? I don’t who decides these things or on what basis, but I suppose 25 is significant because it marks a quarter of a…
