Posture. That word has become so important to me as of late. No I haven’t been struggling with back problems. I still slouch in a chair for 12 hours a day. I’ve realized that in many ways I had been floating through life without a posture, if you will, on many issues. Probably most visible [...]

This one is for Shim Daddy. I have 32 draft posts but I don’t post them because most of them are rants that will pi$$ people off. I’m good at ranting. But I don’t want this blog to come across that way all of the time hence the reason for not posting them…and hence the [...]

Galatians 5:13-15
13For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. 14For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 15But if you bite and devour one [...]
I want to ride my bicycle…
It has become a ritual for the past 2 or 3 springs for me to hop online and shop for a bicycle. I can be stingy with money and sometimes I can be…broke. There is always something that prohibits the purchase. Mostly the being broke thing. Maybe if I felt it [...]
Should I Care?
How important is your cell phone? Is it important enough to disregard the fact that the mining of nickel for cell phone batteries causes birth defects in babies in the Dominican Republic?

The Story of Stuff.
I’ve been delaying this post for a couple months now. I wanted write a fairly detailed post with various facts, figures, and statistics to authenticate what this video is saying. However I haven’t made time to post about it and since then everybody(and their mom of course) have mentioned it. I would [...]
Burger Me!
If you are interested in the cattle industry that produces all those hamburgers you eat then read this post…if not then continue on in bliss.
God intended cows to graze. Thats a fact. On the industrial level of farming cows its a common known fact that cows don’t graze on prairie grass like the [...]
Wal-Mart says No! to Monsanto
After a good decade or two of selling milk from cows given the Bovine growth hormone (that has been proven to cause cancer) Walmart has decided to stop selling the product. I’d like to say its because they are looking out for the interest of the people but its likely just that people finally [...]
Card Carrying Member - OSAGE NATION
Sometimes I feel mizunderstood…I mean being Osage Indian and all. Don’t get me wrong people know its true. I get it all the time. People stop me on the street but I don’t think anything of it. My face paint is really just a facade. I’m hiding behind it so nobody knows when I shed [...]
The Gods Aren't Angry
Left work early, got a dollar menu hamburger, and drove to the Uptown a few weeks ago to see Rob Bell on his The Gods Aren’t Angry Tour. Generally speaking I am a fan of his. I don’t agree with everything he says or how he says it but on the major issues I think most [...]
Just a dude with a blog that probably shouldn't have one.
