Geek Toy Stocking Stuffers

Well, this is it! The last day to grab something for the stockings - and it's time for the men to start shopping. :)

I wish you all a Merry Christmas! Here are my last few suggestions if you still have time to get out there and shop.

Batteries: C'mon now, everything you bought and are going to receive probably needs batteries. The most popular size are AA, and AAA.

USB Cable: If it isn't powered by batteries, than it probably plugs into the the USB port on your PC.

USB Hub: If you bought a boatload of the USB gadgets I recommended, then a USB hub is a good idea. You can daisy-chain them, and easily have quite a few devices.

Printer Paper: Photos, Christmas cards, package labels - it all needs paper!

SD Cards: Most cameras, cell phones and video cameras take an SD card. They are pretty cheap, just $12.99 from Best Buy for a 4GB.

Chap-Stick: Baby its cold outside and dry too. I love to get these in my stocking - but I do prefer Blistex.

Time in Prayer: It is really hard to take a few minutes to reflect on the season, but hey, it's going to be over tomorrow. How about grabbing a few minutes with the Lord to thank for what you do have, and maybe be thankful for some of the things that you don't have while you are down there on your knees.

Have a blessed Christmas! And remember that Jesus is reason for the season, nothing else.

Well I did take your advice on the batteries. I am now well stocked on batteries. Perhaps too well stocked.

I pray you and the family have a wonderful celebration on Jesus' birthday.

Touchdown Jesus! - Vessels of Grace and Channels of Power

My blog title is grammatically correct. Jesus did not get a touchdown, that was the nickname a 62 foot tall, upper torso sculpture, of Jesus was given. The sculpture, off I-75 in southern Ohio, was struck by lightening and burned to the ground. HERE  is the Yahoo News story. I an not going to segue into some prophetic sign of how the End Times are upon is. Much more interesting, and relevant, are the comments on the article by some 3,500+ readers. Here is one by Joshua - "God and Jesus was just made up in a book too. Same with Lucifer and every other angel. Anyone who says Zues is just made up cant prove it. Nor can anyone prove Jesus or God is too. Anyone can write a book and make up some higher being and some poor fools will buy into it." This is one of my favorites from What122: "I wonder if their insurance will cover it, or will the insurance company say it was an act of God?" One commenter characterizes Christianity by using the Bible against itself. Be...

Political Tuesdays - The Taxation Question

I have written on political topics in the past. And with the upcoming electons, I thought I would dedicate Tuesdays to some political ranting and Johndrow-esque, "think for myself" politics. Most will not be based on any specific Christian belief or doctrine unless it applies. As an American I find myself stunned, over and over; like fish in the reach of the tenticles of a man-o-war, at political solutions to human and spiritual problems. I live in Masschusetts, and we are the most liberal state in the US. We were first in gay marriage, we were first in mandatory healthcare, we have rejected mandatory sentencing for repeat and sex offenders, we are ahead of the Global Warming curve, we have high taxes ( on average 10% ), we are split on casino gambleing only because we've missed the boat (if doesn't create jobs, it's a political flop), and well John Kerry and Ted Kennedy were our sentaors for many years (Kerry still is). The last time we went red for president...
