I am sitting in my
chair studying while listening to what is probably in my top three of favorite operas, Idomeneo, by Mozart. So, I take a quick break and cruise over to drudgereport.com and see a link to this article.

This more or less proves that I don't pay much attention to the libretto, which in this case is sung in Italian.

And on a completely different topic, I have a question for one of my readers who absolutely must know its answer. Is U2's Bono's name pronounced so as to rhyme with Sonny Bono, or more like bonnet or bon-fire or St. Bonaventure or I'll have one of those bon-bons, or bon-voyage or [shall I stop?]?

Chris Berman on Monday night football, introduced the halftime show which, he said, consisted of U2 and Bonno.

I decided to lock down
my transcriptions of the Christian Mind class I am taking. Email me if you want the password. I am generally making these available to family, friends and other WSCAL students.

Incidentally, my previous post was very nearly my last:
This is the exact date and supplier of the e-coli spinach. It was in our fridge waiting to go in one of our lunch salads. Deb heard a voice that shouted out: "Give this to him and collect the insurance!!" Hearing this she immediately knew it was the alluring voice of the devil and she tossed it in the garbage. I made her dig it out for this photo.

Not much forthcoming
from my pen, huh? Well, I have been real busy with school. I am recording all the lectures for the Christian Mind class I am taking. Then I transcribe the lectures to file which I am posting at my classnotes.wordpress.com blog. Eventually I will get the actual tapes up for listening. I highly recommend that all my friends take a listen (or read them for now). It will help you know the Bible better and secondarily, it will help you know me better. Remember that they arrive in reverse order so if you want to start at the beginning, you should scroll down.

What I had been planning on doing is writing a small piece on each of the parallel verses between Job and the NT. I may get to that but at the moment, transcribing the recorded lectures is quite time consuming. Plus, soon I will be officially behind on my reading for that class. The only reason I am not behind already is that I started reading the assigned books last summer.

Here's a quote from a
recent article about the San Diego Charger linebacker (Steve Foley) who was shot [with bullets] in his most recent altercation with authority figures (in this case an off duty cop).

Foley was shot near his home in Poway, an upscale San Diego suburb.

I just thought you might like to know that I found Poway to be a little too, shall we say, downscale for my tastes and moved out 20 months ago.
