Five… long… years….

I forget where or when, but the topic of our anniversary came up once in mixed company. Courtney was sitting beside me, and I mentioned that we’d soon hit our fifth anniversary (it’s today by the way), and I made the comment that it had been “five… long… years…” at which point Courtney jabbed me [...]

Mental Illness: Myth – Mental Illness is Untreatable

It has been far too long…. After my last post, I figured I should make the effort to finish this series. That computer crash is still eating at me, but a lot of things eat at me. Why should a computer crash stop me from finishing this off?
One of the less common, but still entirely [...]

Hand-in-hand, one step at a time

Year two of Mr. Blog is coming to a close. I set several blogging goals this last year, and I’m happy to say that we got them all. I had hoped for another 150 posts (easily beat that) with another 15,000 visits (VERY easily beat that one as well). In fact, the year went so [...]

Coldplay… Where have you gone?

I’ve been waiting long and patiently for the latest Coldplay album, Viva La Vida, to come my way. It’s been out for a while, but I don’t buy CDs anymore because they make good gift ideas for Christmas and birthdays. I finally got my hands on my own copy over Christmas and… I’m sad.
X&Y, their [...]

Wii-itis

I hope you all had an excellent Christmas. We sure did. It was our first Christmas officially “on our own,” and I remember putting the kids to bed Christmas Eve night and then wondering “now what?” We ended up watching a favorite movie from yesteryear and then going to bed.
It was nice to do Christmas [...]

Review: Dark Knight

I’m assuming that most everyone has already seen this, so I’m throwing in spoilers. You’ve been warned.
The Bad
Hmmm… Not really bad, but I guess I hope that that really wasn’t all we get of Two-Face. I really liked the direction that was going and was hopeful that we were getting more of an introduction to [...]

Article of Faith 10

Here we are, fast coming to the end of what has been arguably one of the better experiences of the past few months. There is much to be treasured and found in memorizing scripture, and I’ve seen so many interesting applications that, without the memorization, probably would have been missed.
Without further ado, here’s number 10:

Review: Seven Pounds

This is one of those weird things about life… The last three movies that we have seen in the theater are all Will Smith movies.
The Bad
You know, there wasn’t much really major to call bad. I thought that the organization of the film was needlessly complex. For some reason, directors seem to feel that making [...]

Introducing: Kenworthys

Here’s the blog for some good friends of ours. I honestly haven’t read a single thing on it yet because I just got the address, but it must be good since, after all, they know us.
Anyone who knows us has to be cool, right? RIGHT?

Mr. Diamond

I wish there were a single word, just one word I could use to describe how fantastic the concert was. There isn’t, but if there were, I’m sure it’d be polysyllabic, high-pitched, and much closer to a giddy squeal of joy than any other word you might think of.
It was just that good.
And make no [...]
