My new home is at TheGrabble.com. So very helpful people at WordPress finally got my entire archive transferred over. The templates aren't as customisable as tabulas, but it'll have to do since I don't really want to spend a bunch of money on Custom CSS.
So update your links! Drop me a message! Subscribe to the RSS feed: http://thegrabble.com/feed/
I'm getting ready to move the blog and archive to wordpress. if you have already bookmarked www.thegrabble.com, I will continue to use that, so no worries.
My new blog will be at kingpui85.wordpress.com
See ya soon!

Technology, faith and human shortcomings - Billy Graham (1998)
"Reverend Billy Graham marvels at technology's power to improve lives and change the world -- but says the end of evil, suffering and death will come only after the world accepts Jesus Christ as savior." View it here
Not a new video, but it's dear ol' Billy... come on. The world must not forget this dude. From what I've heard, it's also rare to find explicit Christians invited to speak at TED. Some day, Erwin McManus, some day.
The column on the right depicts the books I'm currently reading. (Although it says "my library", I don't often own the books listed on there. Sometimes I do).
So I've begun to read Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray. I knew it was a classic; I knew "Oscar Wilde" was the name of a famous dead man. Finally, I also know that this book was listed on "100 Must-Read Books: The Essential Man's Library." (You can find this list on the Art of Manliness website).
Sidenote: The Art of Manliness states that "[in] our search to uncover the lost art of manliness, we’ll look to the past to find examples of manliness in action. We’ll analyze the lives of great men who knew what it meant to “man up” and hopefully learn from them."
I felt a curious feeling of dissonance as I waded through TPoDG's first pages. That odd feeling only increased as I went on.
"This is very peculiar," I thought.
"TPoDG is not going to simply be a story of a handsome chap's adventure."
"I think I need to find out more about Oscar Wilde."
And I did.
