My number one goal is to love God. is it perfect? of course not. are there times God looks the other way? hopefully. if you are some other religion than Christian you might be interested, possibly on the grounds of mutual interest, but probably not.

deep down inside you know you want to support a guy who ponders the vastness of the universe. when your friends ask about that knuckle head you're funding, you smile and say he's pondering .. pause for effect. . the vastness of the universe. it'll be fun!

origami should be an expression of a person's taste for artistic form. you'll learn how divine inspiration and dogged determination have played a part in my paper folding.

Tired of the same old Bible studies? you know what I mean. and the same old sermons you've heard your whole life. well the Bible study of Matthew and revelation presents no new theology, just a fresh way of perceiving how things in God's word can be matched up.

after going over 3 or 4 on every hole I stroll up to the 9th tee box. it's a par 3. the drive rolls up about 10 feet from the hole. the first putt rolls 6 inches short. addressing the ball a profound sense of peace erupts, it's ok either way.

why is the Bible so vague or lacking in some information that would clarify things? why did Jesus teach with parables? why are Jesus and Satan described as trees in Genesis?

granted, I error on the side of function over form. it is amazing how clean simple interfaces can be so beautiful, but a few minor changes in looks and it seems clunky and uninteresting.

the Bible says in a couple of places, I have told you all things. My guess is that the things necessary to obtain everlasting life is what are told all of. it doesn't seem like algebra is in there, but maybe.

origami by accident. start with water-bomb or Crain base and start folding some way you've never seen in books. occasionally something fun emerges.

the old testament has 39 books. 27 books plus 12 minor prophets. the new testament has 27. What if the 27 books from the old and new testament could be matched up using the 12 minor prophets as a key? if so, I couldn't figure out out.

seems like powder skiing takes more work to get to and a greater determination to master. vail is tops when it comes to ground slopes.

regular expressions - kind of like most math, super useful to a few people, pointless to most. even simple regex can be fun though.

Billionaires are BRILLIANT !

scratchwiththechickens@gmail.com

regular expressions - the use of special characters makes the subject difficult learn. people can often tell you the text they want to find, but the resulting regex is undeciferable.

this may already exist, but how about a reverse regex builder. the user puts in several examples that should match and the tool spits out solutions from specific to general. regexmagic claims to do this, haven't tried it.

has the bible ever failed me? only an idiot would say yes, so of course the correct answer is no. having said this there have been many times where I could not figure out how to use the information in the bible to accomplish something. I'm sometimes thick like that.

Microsoft or Unix, that has always been a tough question. it wasn't too tough at home though, Microsoft has the best total solution for the whole family. Apple is for the super rich and chrome book is basically a laptop web browser.

back in college a bunch of us loaded up and went to a grateful dead convert. the backup band came on for a while and at some point I made a bathroom run. upon returning I asked the guy next to me, is this the dead yet? he said, no man this is still the backup band. after several more songs they played some iconic dead song. we looked at each other and started laughing.

there is a spirit of fear associated with object-oriented coding projects. it is rare to find a product where the fear doesn't take over.

like many written works the bible does call to us. why would God mix fact and parable so seamlessly? why must we dig to carefully understand the tone and events of passages? it is easy for me to see why many people don't take it seriously.

there is an art to producing great clubs, swords, Spears, and bow and arrows, but these things don't really change productivity. software on the other hand changes what and how much you're able to accomplish. this messes with spiritual forces.

Steve Jobs May well have been eliminated for messing with productivity. but others mess with productivity and live to a ripe old age. that's what makes things so difficult. you can never be sure.

mom says keep your head down and come home alive. dad says no guts no glory. keeping your head down is by far the norm, but it takes guts to win the day. dad knows there will be far more casualties than Heroes. and few Heroes come Home alive. tread lightly and carry a big brain.

what is artificial intelligence. we keep asking the question. is it a machine that does things people normally do? I'm really not worried about the Terminator scenario where machines take over. we've seen how easily they break down and it's highly unlikely that other machines will rush to their rescue.

King David in the Bible seems like a good example of what not to do. don't marry several women. don't have several Offspring clamoring for the kingship. don't have adulterous relationships. and don't leave the kingdom to a kid from a marriage where you bumped off her previous husband.
