These are just some sketches my daughter Allison made on my iPod the other day (Note: I removed Sketch by Allison (2) because it wasn't finished, but I still think it's good, so I'll just leave a link). I think they are great. She's actually better than this, it's just that the sketch programs on the iPod aren't all that easy for a 7 year old to use. It's also probable that they weren't

Something happened to me yesterday morning that I feel I need to share. Though I frequently have very vivid dreams that often hold meaning for me, my dream yesterday morning was quite different than my normal dreams. Usually my dreams are reasonably lengthy and vague in purpose, but this one was short and pointed and I feel it was probably a vision from God, not just a normal dream. In my vision

It seems that I've been voted. Jeff, one of the top dogs at the company and a Christian friend who I work with, has done a survey and it appears that there's general consensus that I'm the one voted most likely to go postal. They say it is my appearance and mindset (which seem to be quite different than most others). I think this is totally hilarious. I think part of it is that with my long

Wonderful news. Apple finally decided to fix (or replace) my iPod. It took three times sending it to them and three weeks without my iPod, but finally I am going to have a working iPod again! Update 2008-10-24: It appears that whatever they're doing, they're shipping it from Shanghai (China) which is the same place they shipped my original. Must be a new or refurbished one. I'm glad that I

I am putting this separate from my main article on slavery because I don’t think it lends itself directly as my viewpoint, per say, but as a comparison of mine with that of someone else. I would like to address some stuff from a particularly anti-Biblical website. Leviticus 25:44-46: The site uses NLT which says, “You may treat them as your property,” to infer that slaves were supposed to be

This is the first post in a series of the topics on my interpretation of the Bible. Here is a preliminary list of these topics that is based on a comment from a post I made previously: slavery, war, polygamy, government and women. I have recently heard comments from a number of people saying that the Bible condones slavery, so I feel it is appropriate to start with this. When most Americans

The socket on my iPod where I plug my USB cord, wall charger and bluetooth adapter has intermittent functionality. I tested the iPod with 4 USB cords and 3 PCs which I know work with other iPods. I sent my iPod to you guys twice, but I am still experiencing this problem. I have updated my firmware and iTunes and have followed all recommended troubleshooting tips. I'd rather not go another week

Remember my post last night: Flobi.com, The Blog: Apple Won't Fix My iPod Touch? Well, Apple (which is still in the process of returning my broken iPod for the second time claiming it's not broken) apparently has an automated process that has decided I needed another reminder that nothing is wrong with my iPod. Dear Joshua, Thank you for choosing AppleCare Service. Our technicians have

I don't get it. I have always liked Apple. But for some reason, they won't fix my iPod Touch. I don't know what to do. For the past month or so, I've had a rough time connecting my iPod to my computer. Granted, I can usually get it connected by wiggling the plug in and out of the socket on the iPod, but lately, it's also been having problems connecting to my dock and my wall charger. I

In my previous post, Flobi.com, The Blog: Does evolution contradict Christianity? I insulated that I believed that many of what evolutionists call "random mutations" are in fact not quite so random. And, insofar as we can't specifically determine which genetic changes are in fact random and which are part of the existing design (to the point that the gene is actually programmed to alter it's own

I just wanted to note that I have taken this month off the distance competition. Though technically, I am still entered, I am not actually going anywhere. I am planning on starting back at the beginning of next month. That is one of the reasons I have not put the report on my site. If anyone has a desire to see this, just let me know, I don't mind putting it up if there's interest.

The absolute values of one number and it's negative cannot be equal unless the value of the number is zero. This is a provable mathematic equation. I believe it applies equally as well to any logical concept. The absolute value of one concept and it's negative cannot be equal unless the value of the concept is nothing. Just something to think about.

As I was taking a gander around, I noticed an article pop up this morning on the subject of my post yesterday and I thought that I would add some of the ideas from that to my ideas yesterday. Now, yesterday, I was focused specifically on homosexuality. I was thinking that it might be unfair for Christians to be more focused on the ways of the gay when in fact the Bible is totally against any

Before I loose this idea, I wanted to convey the thoughts from a conversation I had earlier today. Here's a story of a fictional conversation based on the conversation I had earlier. I was posted the question, "What are your thoughts on homosexuality?" I replied, "It's an abomination." Unfortunately, at that point in the conversation, this topic stopped in preference for another topic. A few

This is from part of an article describing some current theories of sub-atomic structure. Specifically, string theory in this section this came from. For anyone not familiar, the quick and easy is that the pieces that make up atoms (electrons, etc.) are made up of strings vibrating at certain frequencies in some 11 dimentions (only 4 of which we can directly observe). It is also interesting to

This is from: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080802190624AAH1hua. I thought I had an insightful answer so I wanted to share it here: First off, I'm Christian. I guess what I'm really asking is, what parts of the Bible should be taken figuratively? For many atheists or unbelievers, they point out many different things, things that might seem abominable to humanity, such as slavery,

Well, we went over to my parent's house today to install an air conditioner for my great uncle, Uncle Johnny. He shares a half of the house with my grandpa, Grumpy, and Grumpy likes the house much warmer than Uncle Johnny. So, the idea was that Uncle Johnny would have a window A/C in his room to keep it cooler and the rest of the area could stay comfortably warm. I will say this about the new

I just got a new hard drive at work. Really, it was amazing. At my last job, I would have had to fill out a requisition form in triplicate, wait 3 weeks for approval, then wait another 3 weeks for the order to be made, wait 6 to 8 weeks for delivery, wait another 2 weeks for the guys to install it. Here, all I did was ask via instant messanger, "Can I have a bigger HDD?" within minutes, the

Sorry to anyone spidering, but I've change the file extensions on all my files from HTML to PHP. This may give me the ability to do new stuff in the future. One of my co-workers informed me that I could use PHP as my file extension even with using blogger.com to run my blog. Can't do anything with it right now obviously (check time). I think that using blogger.com is better than trying to

We were going to a community dinner and everyone was supposed to be bringing spaghetti, but being in a certain phase of a certain diet, couldn't do the starches. Then I remembered seeing on Iron Chef America something about using zucchini instead of pasta so I julianned some zucchini into strips and steamed them and put spaghetti sauce on them (just store bought with some ground beef).

Okay, I've started my own repository for iPhone/iPod Touch applications. I've added MultiPod (see a few posts ago). Anyone who has a Jailbroken iPhone/iPod Touch can add my repository by the normal means. The address is http://i.flobi.com and I named it that for ease of entry. (You're welcome.) If you go in a browser, I recommend Safari as it's designed for that browser specifically.
