Testing a WordPress plugin called “Smart YouTube” for, you guessed it, adding YouTube videos to the blog with full functionality.

I now have twenty different images that I use for headers. Rather than having to refresh each time to see them, I thought I would create a gallery for those who would like to peruse the images. All photos were taken by me and I am happy to provide full […]
Dr. Jim West has posted the 29th BS Carnival. In spite of my lack of posts these past two weeks he was kind enough to link to a couple of my posts. Thanks for all the hard work and a great Carnival Jim!
This time they are in our yard. I still don’t have enough time to blog properly and there is a lot going on that I would take note of (see, for example, Chris Heard’s series on Expelled here and here). And AKMA posts one of my favorite Dorothy L. Sayers […]

Nick has tagged me with this meme and at the risk of being removed from the Book of Blogs and Life I will shoulder my cross and bare [sic] it as bravely as I may (it is still winter here, after all). The rules: Post something rude about Zwingli. (Outrageous […]
