Heaven Has Come....
PoeticIntensity
And in a sense, that's true!
Yes, folks... Another addition to the illustrious Jones family has arrived here on earth just in time to watch his dad go a little more insane. If we were talking about anything other than the bunch of lunatics running around this house, that might just seem a little alarming, but we're not.
So it isn't. :)

Let's see what I can get written in 5 minutes tonight.
Work is going quite well. I'm learning tons about Linux and administrating SLES9 servers. This might turn to my advantage because I have a friend (the ever popular Linux evangelist Scott Morris... yeah, that guy) who works at Novell (where I used to work) who will accept some tutorials writ...

PoeticIntensity
All I gotta say is, I'm glad I had a lot of clothes on this morning. Yes, it was friggin' cold outside, but that was only a small nuisance. The real reason I'm glad I had many layers on was due to the large amount of crap I shot in my drawers when I checked the main server log files this morning.
Around 9:30, the floor admin came to me saying he...

Thoughts on the RIAA
PoeticIntensity
Those who know me will find this post a bit ... unlike my typical post.
This is mainly because I have a pretty passionate stance on DRM, OSS, Microsoft, Linux, and religion. (I hate DRM, love OSS, hate Microsoft, love Linux, and I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints)
Anyway... I have a few words to say ab...

No, my cat didn't die.
No, my computer didn't fry.
My mohawk went bye-bye.
Yup. I woke up yesterday morning and just couldn't ...

My Testimony
PoeticIntensity
I wish I could describe to you how much gratefulness is in my heart for whoever is in the skies who loves me. The prophets say He is Jesus Christ - and I believe them. This being up there loves me more than I can possibly comprehend. There is no way that words can describe to you, whoever you are, how much I want to learn to love Him.

So now, I'm here with approximately $200.00 to spend, and I think I'm going to get some overhead mics fo...

Samuel's Baby Blessing
PoeticIntensity
Well... Today was the big day at church with the blessing of the newest addition to the Jones family, Samuel Jones.
The blessing went well, even if I did botch the proclamation of the power by which the blessing was given. I'm glad God is a forgiving God.
The spirit of the meeting was wonderful, and it testified quite powerfully of one sp...

I remember having read this awhile ago and cross-referencing Alma 16:10 about the destruction of the city of Ammonihah in one day, but I didn't remember that it wasn't a prophet who said that. It was one of the non-believers. One of the people who was trying to refute what Alma was talking about up and said, "yo,...
