When Wi-Fi takes over

My reliance on the internet has never been as obvious as it has been since I have been travelling (USA, Canada, Norway, Scotland, England). .

  • This is not enough

    It\'s Friday night at 6.01pm. I\'ve clocked out 43 hours in a 4 day work week. I\'m leaving for dinner, celebrating a friend\'s birthday.

  • A word for the warrior

    \"Have I not called you for a time such as this?\"

  • How reliable is your reliability?

    Most of us are quite reliable people, and most of us have that one person we can rely on no matter what.

  • Defining human rights that can be justified: part 1

    Recently while listening to a popular radio station, I heard a statement from a protester being interviewed to the effect \"I have the right to bear arms and it would be unthinkable to refuse me that right, so why am I being refused the right to abort a child\".

  • A tale of two captaincies

    News of Michael Clarke\'s latest injury has set the cats amongst the captaincy pigeons, and could not have come at a worst possible time. Australia\'s batting has a callow look about it, and the poise and maturity of Clarke would have provided some much needed ballast.

  • Yertle the Turtle and a Teacher named Helly

    If you know about Yertle The Turtle, you know about the perils of dictatorship and the pain of bureaucracy.

  • His judgement cometh and that right soon: Shawshank Redemption twenty years on

    Widely regarded as one of the best films of all time, (I highly doubt we will ever have the best film but there are many that are mentioned in the same breath) Shawshank Redemption was released 20 years ago in 1994.

  • Honesty & orthodoxy in prayer

    I\'ve been wrestling with something big time over the last weeks and months. Does God care about us being real with him, or is it more important to be right in what we say to him?

  • Beating hearts and broken hearts

    Have you ever seen a heartbeat? It is a brutal and severe sight, one that pounds and swirls about, enticing every organ to sway and quiver in an unceasing orchestra of existence.
