• The Pink List

    I see that I’ve been named on the Pink List – the list of prominent LBGT people produced by the Independent on Sunday.

    Feel hugely honoured and humbled to be keeping company with such heros.

    Thanks Tim. I found google sky already. Indeed, it was one of the things that persuaded me.

    Now I can see the constellations in the city! Indeed, now I can see the constellations in my bedroom.

    SlideIT – easier way to enter text. Good fun, the predictive side of it can be a bit of a pest so do re-read what you’ve written, although there is the facility to go back to simple ABC input.
    Enjoy the ‘phone!

    Nothing to do with phones but I do like the “Want a girlfriend” advertising in the sidebar!

      I’m glad you like whatever you are seeing, Agatha. The ads are served up by a remote server which focusses the ads on the viewer, including whatever you are looking at, where you are and I think also your browsing history.

      Whatever you are looking it is what google thinks should be aimed at you. I see no ads offering girlfriends myself.

    I see no ads, which beats the Scientology ads that I used to see!

    I have nothing to ad because Padre has forbidden it.

  • Joseph Lamb

    Hmm – I’m discovering Joseph Lamb’s piano rags for the first time. Not too bad at Champagne Rag, but definitely stumbling through Sensation Rag. And I thought that Joplin was the last word in ragtime.

  • Naming the Demons – Sermon 20 June 2004

    What demons live in us! Competing voices which ensure that we are distracted from the still points where God can meet us. Voices which distract, torment, dominate and control us to the point that we can not longer hear the voice of the One who knows our name and can offer us nourishment, salvation, strength…

  • Aha

    Had an aha moment this evening when this question popped into my head… Are the Jeffrey John and Gene Robinson affairs not just reruns of the Donatist controversy? If so, of course, we know what the outcome will be.

  • Internet?

    To me, the net is all about people. Community breaks out where people have meeting places and all of a sudden, we have the power for people to meet in so many new ways. There are far too many places online where we are offered information only as though we are supposed to think of…
