Gore looked happy last night at the Oscars.

Wonder if he’ll ever run again?

Specifically on the importance of 2 Kings in the DH.  Read up on chapters 22 and 23 of 2 Kings if you haven’t done that in a while.  Fascinating stuff…

Deuteronomist – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

King Hezekiah centralised the religion and destroyed places and objects of worship that were outside of the control of the Jerusalem Temple and its priesthood. The Assyrian empire invaded Judah shortly after Hezekiah died, and gained suzerainty. Subsequent kings of Judah, owing allegiance to the Assyrians, restored the places and objects of worship outside the temple. However, Hezekiah’s great grandson Josiah instituted a new reform.

Here’s the new site.

You shouldn’t notice much of a change besides the fact that I’ll be updating here much more regularly and there will be a different design by the end of the week.

Let me know what you think or if you have any suggestions!

(BTW, my old email address me@samharrelson.com is working again, so feel free to write me there).

Wow…

Moving things here over to a hosted WordPress blog.

SO, there may be some downtime.

Bear with me… it will be better when it’s over 🙂

Having a difficult time trying to decide how best to manage my email, feed reading, IM and metadata.

Offline or online?

Ubuntu uses the gnome desktop and has flexible yet powerful apps such as Evolution (sort of like Office, but with intelligence), Liferea (feed reader similar to FeedDemon) and Gaim (IM convo’s).

The struggle is complicated by the fact that Ubuntu has such a great file and data searcher (Beagle) which even has a Firefox plugin to keep everything organized for you.  It’s amazing how detailed you can drill down.  I don’t even put things in folders on my system anymore.  I just dump everything into one folder and let Beagle sort it out based on the tags I’ve applied and the data within the podcasts, mp3’s, jpg’s or .docs.  That’s pretty cool.

On the other hand, GMail, Goog Reader and Googl Desktop are great applications that don’t keep me tied to one box.

But with a laptop, is that even an issue anymore?

Decisions, decisions…

Dave Winer is tremendous.

I’m listening to the podcast of his talk on NPR and podcasts.

Winer, tech, podcasts and NPR… it doesn’t get any better than that.

Beautiful, creative, chaotic, artistic stuff.  Go listen for yourself.

Gosh, I’ve neglected this place.

Alright, now that CostPerNews has taken off and is doing well on its own, I’m back to what I love… which is posting about all sorts of random things here.

I was voted in Vice-Chairperson of our local Democrat precinct here in Asheville, NC.

I need a clone.
