Absurdity of ‘Thinking in Language’ (The) “…we think in or with language…” Pause. I’m trying to do this now. Holy Tears I’ve heard of Holy laughter … now how is this different? Take Nothing for the Journey: A Fresh Look at Church Health I like the twist on the ABCs –> “The currency in use…

Random Thoughts before taking a bath
I must say that at first I wasn’t “angry” or “upset” – I was troubled and concerned by the Java Tsunami . But after coming home and seeing the front page of one of our leading papers (whom is tagged as the People’s paper) put the story of two people (celebrities) getting married, and a…

Then again, why were we caught up in the first place? 😛 Will I manage to return to some more substantial blogging? we’ll see. For now,…
Italy … World Champions!
When asked who I thought would win the world cup, I said my heart would go to France for a fairy tale ending and a nice retirement for Zidane. But, after seeing Italy’s performance in the last two matches my head went to them. So, finally … it went to penalties. And Italy are the…
