A guy named Neill is leaving work tomorrow (for good). That's a shame. He was a great part of our Bible study. I'm always surprised when he says anything because it's always so heartfelt. It's the same as with Cristian. We're just doing the normal Bible study thing, and then all of a sudden, they say something that's so full of feeling and so totally focused on having Jesus Christ as your personal savior. I guess I shouldn't really be surprised by these things, but I am. #psychology

Fast

Yesterday was my fast. It was part of a Bethlehem Church-wide thing to focus on God and loving others. I ate on Tuesday night at around 10 p.m., and lasted until Wednesday at about 5:30 p.m. It always tastes so incredibly good to eat after you haven't eaten in a little while. I would consider doing it on a somewhat regular basis so that I'd enjoy food more. But then I'd just binge when it's over. And I'm also missing the whole point: to concentrate less on the distractions of the world, and concentrate more on God and prayer. #religion

Mozilla

On the technology front, I'm so impressed with the products put out by Mozilla. With Firefox, everything's simple and free, and there's a whole bunch of addons (called extensions) that are also free, made by a bunch of computer geeks that write the code because they actually want the functionality, not just because it's "what the competitor does, but better." Probably the best extension is called Adblock. It finds ads and lets you block the images or scripts from loading. This is ingenious. Plus, Mozilla Thunderbird is the first email program I've used at work that could actually connect to Yahoo webmail. Amazing. I didn't even have to do anything. This is why it's a great program. It's just install and go. I think that's what Apple's motto is, but I'd never drink anything other than the Microsoft Kool-Aid. #technology
