Tactical Flashlights

Tactical Flashlights

I’m a huge fan of flashlights.  Every real man should own at least one, if not two, Brinkmann Pro-Max 3-D flashlights, preferably in black.  The 2-D is acceptable for home use.  The 4-D is just too big, even though it makes a nice nightstick.
However, technology has intervened and made things different.
For one thing, D-cell batteries [...]

Puppy Linux

So, my laptop is kinda old. It was originally issued with one of those ancient Windows operating systems like Windows 2000 Pro, or something similar. The System Restore program was on the hard drive, so when the drive went kaplooie, I installed Ubuntu and was quite joyous about reclaiming a fine computer from [...]

It bothers me that in an [...]

Blue Letter???

I have no idea why they call it “Blue Letter Bible“.  But they do.
I use www.youversion.com a lot, or Bible Gateway, but this looks intriguing.  Not quite as well done as youVersion, but still good stuff.  Check it out. 
I REALLY like paper and ink books in the world of Bible study.  I’m not sure [...]

For reasons I really don’t know, I’ve liked Chuck Swindoll for a long time. I remember listening to him as a kid on 106.9 WMIT (before they became “The Light”) and I even enjoyed him then.

Church Wit Da Kidz

This will sound like a pompous “I’m more spiritual than you” post.
I’m not.  I promise.  I’m just a guy desperately trying to be like Christ.  Desperately.  Usually, I fail.  Terribly. 
Yesterday, however, was a bit of a high point for me.  Due to the first snowstorm of Twenty-Ten, Crossroads canceled all services, so the Shufords [...]
