One Thing Leads to Another…. Leave a Trackback (URL). People warn you about this kind of stuff all the time. Look before you leap. It’s a “slippery slope”. There will be consequences for your decisions. One day you are just giving a bit of milk to a starving, scraggly, pitiful little creature. You find yourself amused by his quirky kitten ways. You buy cat food. No big deal. You find you are one of those people with a cat on the dining table. (And a microscope. But that’s another story.). Merry Christmas...

The Art of Creek Walking. Leave a Trackback (URL). A dry creek bed on an autumn day is just too good to resist. Our family loaded up for a little After-Thanksgiving outing. Not to the mall, but the pasture. The more serious sportsmen in our group headed on down the road to the fishing hole to try their luck luring a bass, or if that didn’t pan out maybe they’d just waste some ammo shooting at stumps. After all, it is done in a dry creek. And beds are great places for napping. This fossil discovery looks ...

Leave a Trackback (URL). Her face is unknown to me. Maybe her image is captured in some of the photographs I took that chilly morning. I don’t know. Her face may not be remembered, but her simple act of faith lives on. Two Sundays, six days separating them, I hear the story of her gift spoken to those she will never meet. Their retelling of the event takes my thoughts back to that village in southern Zambia. The table was spread and we shared in the bread and the cup. We took up an offering. Would she be...

Being Wong Has Never Felt So Right: February 2013
http://beingwong.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Being Wong Has Never Felt So Right. That's just so Wong. Thursday, February 7, 2013. This is my story, a refining fire and a potter's pot. This is my story, this is my song. Praising my savior all the day long". The words to this song could not better sum up my life. Now, granted I've been through some hard times but I never left God, never walked away from Him. Yes, I questioned, I asked why, but who doesn't do that? Why God, why would you let this happen to me? I am far from being finished, far from be...

Half-serious musings on architecture, student woes, and the quirks of life in the city. Films, textures, food. Excellent doc on children of prostitutes in the Calcutta(? Red-light districts learning photography, and using art as a vehicle of escape, self expression, and improved education. I liked it. A man (assumed dead? Interesting doc on the LA street dances Krumping and Clowning; their similarities, history, and impact in the community. It made me want to learn to krump. And possibly: Broken Flowers.
