Daley Ponderings

A good post on judging , and making sure to clarify between judging the sin of the world and of the brethren.  Do we let people be happy, and not say anything, in order to not rock the boat, or do we speak up? Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his... (More)

I came across an interesting chart on Beth's blog .  Just how rich are you? (More)

I heard about bump keys recently, and had a little time to play around this morning.  I read an article about them, and watched a youtube video , and away I went.  It took about 15 minutes to hand-file a key.  And then another 20 minutes to try the "pull-back"... (More)

Tonight, due to the Steeler's game, the first snowfall, and regular silly commuters, my trip home took an hour and 15 minutes, resulting in an average speed of 3.5 miles an hour. The last mile and a half took 45 minutes. I even saved a half an hour by calling Heather when I got close to... (More)

I found this article at Ed Bott's blog , where it shows some screenshots from a spam control client-server piece of software.  It looks pretty neat -- if you're into that sort of thing. One interesting thing to note is that almost half of the systems under the spammers control are... (More)

On these two days, Mr. Alcorn has strayed away from at least what I know as traditional views of Heaven, though granted, I am not a particularly studied scholar on the matter.  I haven't ever heard of an intermediate Heaven, which is different from the future Heaven.  His definition... (More)

I sort of got discouraged on days 2 and 3, where I didn't find much that was edifying. But day 4 had a couple interesting things.One was a question I have about "Eden has been trampled, torched, and savaged." I have thought Eden was doing okay.  I guess maybe if the whole... (More)

Reading Mom's post about the TV/autism study reminded me of my own recent negative TV experience. On Friday at care group, Jonathan inadvertantly went to the babysitting before we wanted him to, and they ended up seeing several kids' shows on video. Much of his conversation all weekend... (More)

I hadn't really paid attention to this date, since there have been so many delays and various things, but I just got this from Vicki: Unless we hear otherwise, Judy's hearing is still on for Thursday. I just spoke with Judy and she asked me to post a reminder regarding the hearing.... (More)

For a number of years, I have been on the Worship Quote of the Week e-mailing list, and have found a lot of the quotes to be edifying and helpful.Does our knowledge of God (from His revelation of Himself in the Bible) properly shape our experiences of gathered Christian worship? Is it correct... (More)

I just noticed that Jonathan has 203 posts, Isaac has 60, and Noah only has 14, so I will take this opportunity to write about our left-behind third child. He seems to like trying to catch my eye while I am working at my laptop, and we are sitting on the couch together. I will notice that he... (More)

Last weekend, Heather was sick with mastitis, which meant she just wanted to lie in bed all day with flu-like symptoms. It actually started on Friday morning, and she did get progressively better throughout the day, but still decided to stay home from care group that night. I was planning on... (More)

We get a phone call every day between 8:55 and 9:00AM. They are always hangups, but today, I finally answered quick enough to actually get a person. It was the American Center for Law and Justice, and they refused to remove my phone number from their list. I emailed jsekulow@aclj.org... (More)

And another trip for this week, out to the Kuhns.(need to update these directions after the trip. This one is more of an experiment, trying to stay off of Allegheny River Blvd, Freeport Road and 28 at rush hour) Estimated distance: 15 miles. Start at St. Mary's Cemetary at the entrance on...

I was updating my list of quotes that I have given people, and I noticed that I have hit the $500/month mark for revenue (not profit), seems like a significant number! It has been fun, though sometimes too much work - hopefully someday will able to just work on Lime Daley stuff, rather than a... (More)
