the birds of the air: March 2011

http://thebirdsoftheair.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Monday, March 07, 2011. Oh the thrill of a correspondence with a stranger - by all means, stand at a distance and let me romanticize you. I have a quaint affection for Jens Lekman. And he opens up each month by inviting emails on a theme on his website, smalltalk. I wrote to him last autumn. When he asked for self-portraits and I received the following reply:. As a friend said once. What's a poem to a life unlived". I hope the dark clouds shatter and the list can be checked off though. Oh my goodness, yes.

the birds of the air: I hope it doesn't rain tonight

http://thebirdsoftheair.blogspot.com/2011/04/i-hope-it-doesnt-rain-tonight.html

Tuesday, April 26, 2011. I hope it doesn't rain tonight. Cause I just put a load of laundry out on the lines, the first of the season. Surely that MUST summon a change in the weather. SURELY.

lighton33rd: 1/1/09

http://lighton33rd.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html

Saturday, January 31. Monday, January 26. While we're in a crisis. I've been doing some pretty mediocre research for work today, that is after I got home from work. At actual work today I called someone in Argentina and we conversed on the regulations of importing wine into the US. (Did you know you can't ship alcohol to a home in Maryland? Tuesday, January 20. One reply, according to Jon, was that MLK freed the slaves. Not quite, Jimmy. Tomorrow, Jon is showing video from today's historic inaugu...It is...

The Pedestrianist: Ravelling

http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2007/05/such-great-ikon-gathering-on-sunday.html

I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Tuesday, May 22, 2007. Such a great Ikon gathering on Sunday night, titled ‘The God Delusion’. Here is the piece I read. Here I am unravelling! It began with a doubt. A tickling thread, an element itching. Not much, but at the time I wanted it gone; I prayed for it to disappear. Unravelling. Some early questions coming out of the fray: How can I claim to know God? How can I comfortably address Infinite-God in prayer? What is my faith made of? But unrav...

Imago Dei Northwest: February 2010

http://oppositeofsoutheast.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

This is the semi-official blog for the Northwest/Forest Park Home Community of Imago Dei Community Church in Portland Oregon. We meet every Tuesday from 7 - 9 PM. Please note that, while we're all intelligent, witty and wonderful people, what we write here does not necessarily represent the views of our church as a whole. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. I know posts are supposed to be "reflective". And that reflective is often code for "criticizing myself". And wonder what God's will for you is. Sabbath; tim...

The Pedestrianist: The End

http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-end.html

I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Monday, May 06, 2013. The future isn’t a place we’re going. It isn’t even a time we’re going. There is no future. Everything you think about the future is exactly that – a thought, an imagination, a fancy little construct you’ve built for yourself. There is no future. Sorry to burst your bubble, but there is no future and it’s obvious because it hasn’t happened yet. Nope, it is not a place we are going, nor a time we are going! Look to the future?

The Pedestrianist: Forced Hypocrites

http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2007/05/forced-hypocrites.html

I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Sunday, May 06, 2007. Representative democracy where decisions that affect us are made without us, and that affect others are done in our name. At best we are forced hypocrites, cursing our wallets as we feed and clothe ourselves while standing on the backs of others, cursing our ballot papers as we decry the politicians. Curse our failure, us forced hypocrites, there is no righteousness in our actions. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Pedestrianist: Lexikon - scattered words on words

http://thepedestrianist.blogspot.com/2010/03/lexikon.html

I used to run, but too often in the wrong direction. Tuesday, March 09, 2010. Lexikon - scattered words on words. My piece for Ikon's 'Lexikon' gathering (Feb '10). Languages are only proxies of our minds, endeavouring but failing to summarise what we experience. To illustrate – although somewhat urban-mythologised, the notion of there being many Eskimo words for ‘snow’ helps us understand how our own language for snow is inadequate. 8211; Gustave Flaubert (Madame Bovary).
