    Wiggly Concert

    Late last year, Sol, Steph and I went to the Wiggles concert with a couple of friends. It was totally awesome! I know the Wiggles are a kids show and everything but I’ve always appreciated that they are a real band that play instruments (though not much on stage these days), write [...]

    The giver of evil gifts

    Enter the atheists

    I’ve just finished reading Ken Mcleod’s excellent post on 21st Century Atheism from back in July. I only recently found Ken’s blog and I’ve been working my way through the 30 or so links from that post to a lot of discussion of the so called New Atheists and their books (you know: God [...]
