  • PRager U

    I made the mistake of convincing Stephanie to watch a PRager U video on human trafficking by the Mexican Drug Cartels. She wrote it off as propaganda before she even watched it. I felt the intelligence agent being interviewed made a solid case that we need to control the border better. Watching it did not…

  • Cats and Mice

    This morning Stephanie went to let one of our cats out and stepped on something by the front door. She let out a tiny panic noise because it was a dead mouse. Well technically it was half of a dead mouse because the cat who had killed it ate the head. Much to her chagrin…

  • Cultural Mormonism

    The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints does not like the word Mormon. It officially forbids members from calling ourselves one. The logic is sound of course for most members. We are to call ourselves Christians or Latter Day Saints. But if you’ve read more than a few of my posts then you…

  • Go For A Walk?

    I used to like long walks. So much so that I would occasionally take them in the night in the rain. Part of that was out of necessity. I have never had a driver’s license. I know I’d get someone killed. The sidewalks are safer when I’m on them without a car. But over the…

  • Rearranging Hours

    Stephanie and I are talking about changing how we bill for the boys to more accurately reflect what she and I actually do for them. I am hesitant because it would make the extra responsibility I am already taking official. I talked about the senate in my mind debating the issue. Like our very real…

  • Listening to Hymns

    One of my daily habits is to listen to at least two hymns. Today I listened to “Have I done any good in the world today?”, “If you could hie to Kolob”, and “Come, come ye Saints.” The beginning of the last verse of the last song goes, “And if we die before our journey’s…

  • Sanctify Our Lives

    This morning after I ate and had an energy drink I read the first surah of the Quran, the first chapter of the Tao TE Ching, and my favorite verses from the Bhagavad Gita. They fit together remarkably well at least in my head. The Book of Mormon has a verse that says “We have…

  • Placebo Pessimism

    Human beings are incredibly good at believing that there are patterns in the chaos where none actually or naturally exist. Once we are convinced that there is a pattern in what we are seeing we tend to look only at the evidence that confirms that belief. This is true in religion, science, education, and among…

  • Sleepy Warm Kitty

    I have a sleepy warm kitty cuddling in my lap. I should probably be doing laundry but Magic says otherwise. Who am I to argue with her logic.
