Yikes… long time no post.
Chinese New Year brought a bit of a fast from all things electronic as I gorged myself on all things beach.
Now we are getting ready for our first “Family Reunion” service with the church in Yung Ho that sent us out here to Ankeng/Xindian.

I bookmarked this a while back and recently had a chance to check it out a bit more…
Freeware Games.net
It gives you some of the obvious stuff… like Bejeweled 2 and Luxor and Dynomite…
But I found some other games that look good that I had not ever heard of before…
Once I find the time (and $$) [...]

I keep thinking about some of the same things that prompted this post last week.
Paul Martin from Original Faith commented:
I think people just mean religious institutions, in contrast to what people sometimes discuss as spirituality.

To me… when celebrities… athletes… entertainers… reference God or “the man upstairs” it usually kinda rings hollow. Mrs. SQJ wouldn’t be so cynical… but I just find it hard to think that some particiular artist’s lyrical body of work would make “the Big Kahuna” all that pleased and I really don’t think God cares much [...]
