Enjoy!
A bit of background:

Fridge Magnet Poetry

13th
Jan. × ’10

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

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 [...]

1st
Sep. × ’09

In 2003 I made a video of me equaling a current world record, 12 catches with 12 balls. Here is the video:

Awesome, right? Well, it was actually a fake, made for an April Fools Day prank on the world. Here is the post I made about it on rec.juggling, and the fun comments afterward.

29th
Aug. × ’09

I’ve been a bit unwell this week, and haven’t felt like blogging. But I have done other stuff. Here’s some things, in no particular order:
