Well... I haven't written in awhile, and quite a bit is coming to a head soon, so I thought I'd just site down and write whatever comes out. It may be a novel, it may end right now.
Lately I've been focusing a lot of my time on music. Our band Mimic, is in the process of getting gigs around Utah, so I've built a website for us,...

DSpam and Postfix
PoeticIntensity
For the last few days, I've been fiddling with my new postfix installation (which has been working quite well), trying to figure out how to even out my current 200 to 1 spam ratio.
I'm now trying out dspam, and I have all the routing working, and the web interface is working (finally), but the only problem I'm having is, well... All the tr...

Collin's Testimony
PoeticIntensity
During last month's testimony meeting, our wonderful Luci whispered into Sarah's ear, as the church members were expressing their feelings about Christ, that she really didn't want to go up there. It was totally unprovoked, but as she is somewhat frightened of unfamiliar situations, was totally understandable.
We told her that it was okay ...

BMW 545 Heaven
PoeticIntensity
I really don't know how to begin this entry - at all. I'm still sort of in shock, to be honest.
I came to work today with no anticipation other than finishing a project I began two days ago. Seemed like it would be a normal day. That is, until a co-worker of mine came in and showed me some keys which had a BMW logo on them.

Moroni : 2
PoeticIntensity
So, these chapters are pretty small, but for some reason, I think there's quite a significance in this one. Not quite sure if I've found it yet, but the reason I think this, is - originally, this text was not included in the scripture - and it is Christ talking himself. I wonder why Moroni felt the need, or was inspired to include it?&n...

1st Nephi : 14
PoeticIntensity
When I sit and think about what I just read, the 14th chapter of 1st Nephi is pretty crazy.
Just a few points...
The majority of the chapter is all about the "mother of abominations" and the "whore of all the earth".
I believe it's written here to clarify the impact this (these) church(es) has (have) had upon the plain and...

Interesting that the council invites the entire Nephite people in the land of Nephi to join in the discussion about how they should free themselves. I wonder why they make a point to note that.

I believe that Sherem is the first "villain" of the Book of Mormon after Laman and Lemuel, who could be considered an "anti-christ". Not 100% sure, but I don't remember anything standing out in 1st or 2nd Nephi. This guy reminds me of Nehor, Korihor, and Amalickiah.
