Web Browsing- Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows: Windows 7: Simple vs. Easy 5 January 2009A review of the upcoming (sometime) Windows 7 offers some interesting observations about the way we use computers. He discusses the difference between "simple" and "easy" technology while debunking the notion of "intuitive" programs. Regardless of what Microsoft does with its OS, this article encourages thought about the way tec […]
- Another side of President Bush 23 December 2008It's sometimes hard to cut through the clutter to see the kind of man President Bush is. Stories like this one from the Wall Street Journal are a helpful reminder that even if we may disagree with some of his decisions, attacking him as a man is uncalled for. Even though his version of "compassionate conservatism" has drawn the ire of some con […]
- Professors' Liberalism Contagious? Maybe Not - NYTimes.com 3 November 2008Do liberal faculty affect the political leanings of students? These people say no. But let's look a little deeper. One author says "it is really hard to change the mind of anyone over 15." Does this mean that the average American thinks about politics now the same way he did when he was 15? Yikes. It appears to imply that political opinions a […]

Just for the record, I am not a baritone
Filed Under News, Random Thoughts
In case anyone was confused, I am not singing in the opera at BJU this week.
If you google my name, my site (this one) is the second link. In a wonderful twist of irony, the guy whose site is first is singing one of the lead roles in BJU’s production. I’ve actually known that he was going to be doing it for a while. One of the times that I googled my own name, I clicked on his performance schedule and saw that he would be at BJU for this year’s Barber of Seville production. Alas, it will be the first (or nearly the first–I’ve forgotten for sure) BJU opera that I haven’t attended in a very long time. Someone get his autograph for me. :-p

Ha. I saw a copy of the Collegian while I was home this past weekend, and thought that maybe I was just doing a really, really bad job of keeping up with your lives!
Well, we heard Andrew Garland tonight, and I can highly recommend him if you do need an operatic baritone. He is quite excellent both in singing and in acting.
And I’ll see what I can do about the autograph.
I got you an autograph.
I got you one too.
