The only reason I comment on this story about a correlation between horizontal eye exercises and increased creativity … is that I wonder if I have inadvertently gotten a hand up from the effect. About a year ago, I got a second monitor to extend the desktop on my computer at work. I am frequently [...]
Via Hypotyposeis, Peter Kirby’s marvelous resources, Early Christian Writings and Early Jewish Writings are back on line. The former is a priceless resource that exists nowhere else that I know of, even in the form of any single book. The information isn’t as in depth as some of the scholarly works out there, but you [...]
I’ve been way out of the loop the last week or two. Last week was a vacation from work, but with two dentist visits, a trip to the DMV and a host of other little errands, it didn’t seem much like a vacation at all. We did round everybody up for a trip to [...]
As promised, here I am, back again this Monday. I’m afraid this will mostly be all about me, and my weekend, and I honestly can’t blame you if you don’t care. I mainly only care about my own. I will say, before I insist my feelings won’t be hurt if you navigate away to something [...]

Just like last time, day 2 was a little tougher than day 1. If I remember, week 2 is probably tougher than week 1.
But the wonder-drug is making a difference. A lot of the time, I don’t even think about it. Last time, I didn’t get to that point until about a month [...]
I am writing this a tad early for Tuesday morning reading, but as of 1:45 a.m. (or thereabouts) Eastern time, I am 24 hours without a cigarette.
