13th
Jan. × ’10

I was at a party back in 2001 (or maybe 2002), and I found a Shakespearean Fridge Magnet set. A play [...]

12th
Jan. × ’10

This is a song I started writing on a beach in Ireland, back in 2006. I only just finished it today. One of my goals for 2010 is to write and record an album’s worth of songs, so to get myself into the project I decided to actually finish writing this one.
Here are some lyrics:

When I’m in Berlin, I fight with others at least twice a week, normally playing team games, two on two or three on three. And, because we train all the time, Berlin players are generally the [...]

2nd
Jan. × ’10

After working hard at my chosen career for the past six years I’ve reached the point where I have a surplus of time and money, so have to use both to achieve all the things I can while both at home and while traveling.

What Mount Osorno looked like this time:

What Mount Osorno looked like back in March:

Yesterday I took a walk around Punta Arena, the southernmost city in Chile. Man, that is one ugly place to visit! I took a few photos, but it’s hard to find an interesting shot. I may talk more about it in the [...]

Repeating Stories in Genesis and Hints of the Shared Identity of the Patriarchs

28th
Dec. × ’09

This blog post is on a subject which I find fascinating, but most readers will find a bit obscure, that being Higher Biblical Criticism. It’s the first draft of a 19 page/8,000 word paper where I lay out my theory that Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were once considered the same person. Well, I’ve got to [...]
