I forgot to update the mp3 of the week tonight. I’ll make sure to do it tomorrow though – a special treat from Hari and friends.

In the email I just sent out I made it sound like I am the only one who writes on this blog. That’s not quite true – a few of my friends do too. Like the one below about the Oscars, that was written by Bobby. You can see the author of the post [...]

An old friend from a Latin American Lit. class came into Miracles last night and told me about a slideshow she’s having this friday about her trip to Peru. More information below:
Dear friends . . .
After months of promises and delays, it’s finally happening . . .
VAMOS A PERU!!!
See a slideshow about my adventures living, [...]

Woojay made a good point on his blog last week when he said:
A blogger’s dilemma
I shamelessly admit that ever since I started this new hobby of blogging, I have hardly read any books except those related to work. Given my economic situation, I’m a relatively lavish spender when it comes to books, and right now [...]

Want gasoline prices to come down? We need to take some intelligent, united
action. Phillip Hollsworth, offered a good idea.
This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the “don’t buy gas on [...]

Props again to Thivai for pointing out this article:
Thresher made a distinction between students who come to campus in a “poetic” frame of mind and those who come in a “prudential” frame of mind. “Certainly more kids are entering in a prudential frame of mind,” Hargadon said. “Most kids see their education as a means [...]

I wasn’t going to post this – I meant to comment it on Thivai’s blog but there is a limit on words. Anyway, yesterday he posted “Some Thoughts on the American Individual by Robert Goldman” and here are some of my thoughts on his thoughts:
Thivai,

That would be ideal. And in [...]
