Bride meltdown and its solution
Saturday, April 30th, 2005Oh dear, the bride from Duluth, Georgia with the “social event of the season” wedding wasn’t kidnapped but ran away to New Mexico. By bus. I’m sure Greyhound won’t use that image in their summer TV ads.
I wasn’t going to mention this story but PeaceBang did and I wanted to add a Georgia native’s two […]
I’m number one (for two obscure things)
Saturday, April 30th, 2005I was using Google to research — who doesn’t? — and discovered that this blog is the #1 Google hit for two topics. Perhaps more, but I’ll be satisfied with these.
“Ecclesiastic tailor”
“Quillen Shinn” (Note: Adam/Unity is #5.)
General Assembly programs
Saturday, April 30th, 2005I’m worried about General Assembly schedule overload. The once inviolable plenary sessions now — rightly — harbor duplicates of programming. But the whole thing is getting more and more crowded. Stakeholders complain that their slots are being taken away. I add a complaint about the lack of quality control and lack of expectations for sessions. […]
The hat and the bachelor
Friday, April 29th, 2005I was there when a Canadian colleague (bottom picture) Hank first saw the “split knuckle” (as he calls the split-sleeve gown) robe — at an ordination in Massachusetts. (Wasn’t PeaceBang there, too?) We both thought it very natty.
If you’ve never met me in the flesh, you’ve got to accept that this thing is rather inbred.

Hot news: lesbian minister wins appeal
Friday, April 29th, 2005I normally stay away from United Methodist politics, but there’s some good news that’s making its way through the blogosphere. Well, I think it’s good but other’s won’t and it’ll be divisive and people will hue and cry. Of course, there would be hueing and crying either way.

April 29 blog watch
Friday, April 29th, 2005Since I have 150 blog and other feeds coming into my Firefox browser, you know I read them. This is what I’ve been following closely.
Podcasting
Justin Baeder and Aaron Ogle at Radical Congruency are always worth a read; right now Justin is writing about podcasting, which interests me.
Podcast: Emerging Tech // Emerging Church: Video & BitTorrent

Listening to podcasts
Thursday, April 28th, 2005I try to keep up with new technology, as money allows me the hardware. As I mentioned earlier, I’ve replaced browsing through blogs loosey-goosey with RSS feeds. I’m up to 150 feeds; some are now podcasts.
The reason I’ve moved to podcasts — the Internet transmission of sound files usually to be played on portable audio […]
Life’s no-picnic
Thursday, April 28th, 2005I regret it very, very much, but I shall not be attending the Boston-area bloggers and readers picnic. No visit with friends and new associates. No hamburgers or frisbee at church. And worst of all, no weekend time with PeaceBang. (PB: I hope you got my email from earlier; I’ll try to call you […]
