If We Had All the Answers, We Wouldn’t Need Faith
I read this story on WithoutWax.tv and I had to share… * * * * * Emotional Whiplash Whiplash is a word I’ve used more than once when describing the emotions I often go through as a pastor. Yesterday was a difficult day. I apologize in advance for the length of this post, but I […]
Boys Will Be Boys…Or No?
Last night, I was taking Comang on his evening walk when I ran into a group of boys playing baseball. There is almost always a group of middle-school-aged boys playing on this block when the weather is nice (I think one or two of them live on that street) — they are usually skateboarding, biking, […]
POP! Goes the Baby…
A big “con” of having an anterior placenta is that I will not feel the baby move as early, or as often as other mothers. Luckily, I first felt the sensation of fluttering butterflies at 16 weeks…but not much since. The big exception was when we went on our babymoon and I felt her swimming […]
Street Pianos Headed to NYC!
One of the (many) things I love about NYC is the abundance of street and subway performers. May it be a classically-trained prodigy giving an impromptu concert, a struggling musician performing for dollars (often with the wish that a record executive will “discover” them), or an out-of-luck bum drumming some beats on some upside-down plastic […]
My Name is Jenny and I am a Serial Subscriber
I subscribe to over 500 sites via Google Reader (sadly, if your site doesn’t have an RSS feed, it’s likely that I’ll never visit it again unless it is spectacular) and I always have a heck of a time trying to “weed” through my feeds in an effort to lessen the number of posts/articles I […]
Star Wars Opening Crawl
And here I thought the sequence was entirely CG… The rudimentary method is quite ingenious, and I’m a bit saddened to learn that the remastered movies have replaced the manual crawl with CG versions. I wonder if the opening crawl for Flash Gordon (George Lucas’ inspiration for the Star Wars films) was done using the […]

Free Range Kids
In light of yesterday’s post regarding The Bubble Wrap Generation, I found it strangely appropriate that I learned about “Take Our Children to the Park…& Leave Them There Day” this morning on the radio. I was not surprised when my favorite NYC blog, Gothamist, picked up on the story and ignited a furious war among […]
Fallingwater Animation
I have always had a soft spot for architecture. I mean, who hasn’t seriously considered becoming an architect after reading Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead? And as cliché as it sounds, Frank Lloyd Wright has always been my favorite architect and Fallingwater my favorite residential building. Visiting Fallingwater has been on my to-do list for over […]
