Halt, Reconfigure, Restart

Monday 19 October 2009

In English, we call Him Jehovah.
You can quibble all you like about proper Hebrew spelling and pronunciation, but if you don’t also adhere to the Hebrew world-view and intellectual assumptions along with it, you’re just making noise. If you truly embrace that Hebrew perspective, you’ll realize the common English version of His name is just [...]

Keeping My Word

Monday 5 October 2009

We are doomed. I will sometimes venture an educated guess, but by no means can I claim to know how that doom will manifest, nor even how it will telegraph itself. Part of the problem is we have too many things going wrong at the same time. The economy is already lost, but most people [...]

Note to the Regulars: Emergency Contact

Friday 7 August 2009

You’ll find the necessary details here.
WordPress has been known to censor folks. Usually it’s due to complaints from Zionist activists who gang up on some blog with complaints of something like “anti-Semitism.” Simply writing such a sentence as that should indicate I might some day be a target for their wrath. What’s in my favor [...]

Little to Say Anymore

Forget Opera

Friday 21 November 2008

For the longest time I really liked the Opera web browser. It is quicker to load than any other full functioning browser, and processes JScript faster than anything else. It’s got a very good collection of presets for popular email services in the mail client. There are plenty of other fine features too numerous to [...]

Testing, Testing…

Thursday 20 November 2008

Frequent visitors will have noticed I’ve changed the theme repeatedly. It’s not that I’m so flighty, but I keep running into problems. Since I would have to pay money to WordPress to access the actual formatting controls, I’m stuck with simply accepting the themes as-is. Each one has strengths and weaknesses. I am completely unconcerned [...]
