Psalm 71

Posted on October 10, 2015 by ehurst

Racism and Mythology

Posted on October 10, 2015 by ehurst

I suppose my regular readers, particularly those who live a heart-led existence, already understand this. All I’m doing is offering some cerebral support for manifest moral truth. For anyone else, I’m not sure there’s anything we can do to help … Continue reading →

Adblocking: I’ll Take That Risk

Posted on October 9, 2015 by ehurst

Photolog: Sooner Road

Posted on October 8, 2015 by ehurst

You would have to imagine that I’ve driven all over eastern Oklahoma County at one time or another, but only on the main routes to get somewhere. Wandering the back roads on my bicycle reveals sights I never knew were … Continue reading →

Virtual Resistance

Posted on October 8, 2015 by ehurst

The Niceness Lie

Posted on October 7, 2015 by ehurst

It’s peculiar to Western social mythology that we are supposed to be “nice.” While the actual definition is contextual and all over the map, we all have learned to recognize that undertone — “you’re supposed to be nice” — in … Continue reading →

Linux on Dell Latitude 2120

Posted on October 7, 2015 by ehurst

This was a rather pricey business machine when Dell released it some four-and-a-half years ago. It was designed for Win7 and comes with a surprising array of added goodies, but no Bluetooth. You can find these things in good quantity … Continue reading →
