“Altoid” Theology–or A New Adventure
“Hey Scott, you got an Altoid?” Scott introduced me to the potent little breath mints. I figured he probably had plenty to spare. He looked up at me from his cubicle and I could tell right away that something was wrong. “Dude, you look like you are having a bad day,” I said. “You don’t [...]
“Cafe Mocha” theology
Yesterday, I took my usual and customary walk (well, it’s more or less “usual”). I was praying and thinking and listening to a lot of worship music mainly from Chris Tomlin when I realized something: I’m not anxious right now! whoa…. that’s … unexpected, and weird (especially in view of my current situation: read “Head [...]
John didn’t know (from Max Lucado)
My sister in law sent me the following devotional from, I don’t know where. It is an excellent devotional. I thought it was a good way to start thinking about Easter. Hope you feel the same. Week of March 30, 2007 On Saturday by Max Lucado John didn’t know on that Friday what you and [...]

As you may recall, Robin Williams (Mork) used his phenomenal ad lib skills in the role of a lovable, wacky space alien coping with all [...]

Mr. Incredible: the man who got his life back
“Honey, where’s my Super Suit?” “Why do you need to know?” “Tell me where my super suit is, woman!” I love that scene. Those of you who neither have children nor possess the mental state of one, are probably lost right now. I have both, so allow me to elucidate: the quotes above are from [...]
