GCBME.COM Where You put the ME in MEdia I dropped by my Flickr page and noticed someone had put a comment on my photo of a juvenile Goa'uld caught in my homemade snakehead trap (it's cleverly disguised as a lava lamp): The comment was: WATCH IT HERE Please vote for my video HERE The contest COULD HELP to bring back SG1 for another season!

Scantlebury was a good sport about going door-to-door. We even had a couple of reporters there taking pictures for local papers. This picture shows the baptistry of St Nick’s, with their fancy running-water font. Originally, this was an altar that was cut down and refashioned, and the worship space is completely flexible. Today, for example, all the chairs had been re-arranged to face…

The Swamp – Chicago Tribune – Blogs. This is the text of the Democratic Party's radio address (audio link here): "I’m Jim Wallis, author of God’s Politics. I was surprised and grateful when Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid called to say his party wanted to set a new tone and invite, for the first time, a non-partisan religious leader to deliver their weekly radio address and speak about the values that could unite Americans at this critical time.

We own a TiVo. We watch pretty much what we want to watch, when we want to watch it. I knew we were concentrating on just one of the "Big Three," with the rest of our time watching various cable networks, but I had no idea how cut and dried it was until I saved some links in my "Friends" plugin for WordPress.

Via Pazzo Blog » Blog Archive » Books you’ll never read: Instead of suggesting books you might like to buy, based on what you've bought before, Library Thing has the Unsuggester – plug in a book you've read or you own, and it comes back with a list of books you probably would not want to read.

((deep, raspy Movie Guy voice)) In a world where evil trolls lie in wait, thirsting for blood, and cruel goblins lurk deep under the middle-Earth, a great treasure lies at the end of an arduous journey…guarded by… a dragon.

They're about to change their luck… by taking on one more traveler, who has no idea what fate awaits him… right after a wild, crazy, and quite unexpected party. Underground. Tom…
