The one about bullies

Posted on October 12, 2005December 4, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

Apparently bullying starts younger than I remember. Every year Abigail\’s school switches up the class make up (for whatever reason).

Somehow I’ve become the guy that spends 2 and a half hours on a cool and gray Saturday afternoon vacuuming and washing his — mini van. That’s right. I take pride in my mini van. I in fact, like it. Somewhere between “I do” and diaper changing I’ve grow to value an economy of space…

The ruptured capillaries in your nose belie the clarity of your wisdom

When does realism turn into pessimism? I first started to think about this as I watch my Chiefs get humiliated on Sunday evening. There came a point in the game when I knew that they had lost momentum -— and the game (even though they were up by 11 points). There was an entire half…

I don’t take coupons from giant chickens, not after last time

Sweet Lincoln’s mullet its finally (99%) done! The church site has been a labor of love for about 4 or 5months now. It started out as me approaching Ryan (Hartsock) about doing any design work they might need (like banners, bulletins, displays) and turned toward a “wishlist” of what a church website could and should…

A boats a boat, but a box could be anything – it could even be a boat!

I’m addicted. I really am. Obsessed might be the word. Its never a good sign for your sanity (or career) when you think about a fictional TV show so much that you comb message boards looking for clues and insights, typing in secret words into a barcode input boxes (which by the way, you type…

Whether you think you can or you can’t; you’re right.

Yesterday turned into a series of catastrophes. I spent most the morning fixing some issues with the old church site (I had to update every font on 6 different files because the original designer refused to send the fonts used to create her file so that I could fix the links — I just don’t…

Fun with spam

Posted on September 13, 2005December 4, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I got this spam (well, I seem to get it regularly). I have no idea who in the world would ever be able to understand it … it must be secret code, or a magic incantation or just stupid spam trash. PCAVLUXMCVrop elembi alievi ltrana eriial iagec bren um tramx diis raia ex$3 a a$1…

A guy at work bought a car out of the paper. Ten years later, BAM! Herpes.

I read this while sitting on the couch. To think people are coming here, not just to a temporary stay till their house is ready to inhabit, but here to make a new life. To start over. With nothing in their pockets. No trucks following behind with their stuff. I pray God will use us…

Pictures are better than words, because some words are big and hard to understand

Posted on September 7, 2005December 4, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

Improvements are on the way to this little site (trying to figure out this RSS feed thing — so very close). I like using this site as my guinea pig for other projects … Idea; rather than point the finger – ask yourself what you can do. (and I was correct about the review; it…

There’s this game where you put in a dollar and you get 4 quarters. I win every time!!

Shortly there should be a review I wrote of the newest Death Cab for Cutie album (on RelevantMagazine.com. I’m fairly certain that people will not be happy with my review (because I don’t out-and-out love the album). BUT I do like Plans, but I don’t feel it’s great, or even on par with Transatlanticism.
