Meaning of Life?
Sunday, March 9th, 2008It seems with two children, one becomes much more of a cleaner. We are constantly tidying up after the princess and the destroyer.
Cricket: A Contact Sport
Saturday, March 8th, 2008Once upon a time, I visited Bermuda regularly. Ah, young love. Anyhow, I saw many cricket matches while on the island. Cup Match is a national holiday and well worth the visit. If you can remain sober, fine curried mussel pie is available!
Anyhow, cricket always seemed like a “refined” baseball. The English have a way with things, it seems. But for all the cricket matches I saw, I never saw this. Bravo!

Christian Charity
Thursday, March 6th, 2008It dawned on me today that I am not very good at extending Christian charity . . . at least not online.
The other day I fisked a fellow geocacher pretty well. I have no issue with the post I made. What has been on my mind, however, is that I did not let this guy up off the mat. Why was I so harsh?
I do not have an adequate answer to that and that is troublesome for me.
Frodo extended his apology. While I recognized he apologized, I did not accept it. It seems that despite whether I believed him, the proper response would have been to accept it and move on.
Nothing good becomes of dragging this out.
It’s kind of odd how I came around to thinking about this. It dawned on me that here during Lent, one should, if anything, extend his Christianity. I certainly did not practice that in dealing with Frodo.
So, what to do? Well, the action took place publicly, so it seems only fitting to deal with this publicly, hence, this post. I ask for Frodo’s forgiveness. I hope to be a better man than to take someone down just because I object to an Internet message.
I’m sorry.
