I’ve changed hosts in an effort to correct some of the problems I’ve been having with my site. Hopefully the RSS feed will work again and everything will be working correctly now. This post is also a test to see if it shows up.

Thanks for reading!

My webhost transferred to a new server this weekend. As a result, I lost the last couple of posts. Really no big deal as I can recreate them. However, I did lose a couple of comments also, so Chris and Kimberly, comment again if you want to.

… of which I do realize is eleven days old.

I got two books for Christmas from my parents. One is Red Hot Lies by Christopher Horner and the other is Peace to War by Paul Alexander. Red Hot Lies about some of the fallacies about Global Warming©/Climate Change© put out by politicians and the media. He actually infers that they might be pushing an agenda with this. Honestly, I’m shocked. (That was sarcasm.)

Peace to War looks at how the Assemblies of God moved from being pacifistic in their views on war to going along with a more pro-war stance. I actually know the author of the book from my days at Southwestern A/G University, and I was pretty excited to have opened this one up. I’m through the first two chapters of it so far, and it is quite interesting.

What is the new year going to bring? Well, we’re adding one more to the family in June, and then we’ll see after that. Yes, I did say we’ll see. We’re not ruling out adding another one to the family. We love our kids and having a baby around the house has just made us love them more. Big sister and big brother dote on their baby sister (sometimes a bit too much) and they’re going to have even more to do when LEM arrives.

OK, LEM is a name that I coined for the baby. We don’t know what we’re having yet and we had two names picked out, Lucas and Emily, though we’ve moved away from Emily now. I’m a little concerned that LEM might stick.

Anyway, another thing that I’m going to do (not hoping, not planning, going) is to write more. I’m working up some ideas for posts and I’m going to make it work. I would like to finish up some previous series that I started at my old site, and maybe start some new ones.

If there are topics you would be interested in, please let me know. I’m not an encyclopedia of all knowledge, but I do love researching and learning new things. Just not research that is associated with getting a PhD. That sucked and I quit it.

In the last month, I was accepted into the Business Computer Information Systems PhD program at the University of North Texas, turned it down, then turned around and accepted it, went to about two and a half weeks worth of classes, and realized that I liked free time with my family and actually doing what I want to do better. It was a good program, but I’m not going to be a college professor, nor am I really all that fond of doing research. Does that explain my absence completely? Well, no.

I really haven’t felt like writing all that much. About a year or so ago, something happened that totally turned me off writing. I tried some off and on, but it just didn’t feel the same. So, I guess I took kind of a self imposed exile from blogging to get my thoughts together about what I really wanted to write about. I’ve got a pretty good idea where I’m headed now. I’ll be posting more later.
