Here’s your first installment of pictures. These are the ones that I took of the apartment after I got everything set in its place. Can you find the Zipparumpazoo?
Their Logo is… No Logo
I like these shirts. Kinda punchy… make a valid point… good stuff. But they only have one message: “We don’t have logos. ” “My body is not a bilboard. ” “This shirt is not selling anything.” Logos bad. No Logo. The name of the company that makes these shirts?

Can you feel the irony?
Our pets
I know that I promised to put up some pictures of our new aparpartment and surroundings. I’ve taken some, but I’m not done tweaking them yet. Just so’s you know that I haven’t forgotten, here’s a picture of our pets:
Honore is on the left and Benedict is on the right.
What a Word
> The curriculum of the M.Div. degree, therefore, seeks to **[inculcate](http://dictionary.reference.com/wordoftheday/archive/2003/06/23.html)** in students knowledge and ability to …
- Inculcate:
- To teach and impress by frequent repetition or instruction. Inculcate is from Latin inculcare, “to tread upon, to force upon,” from in-, “in, on” + calcare, “to trample,” from calx, calc-, “heel.”
That is, to inculcate is to grind a concept into somebody, preferably with the heel. Wowsers.
*”Mommy… I don’t wanna be inculcated.”
“Hush child, it’s good for you.”*
Phase III complete
Reading through the last few posts, it looks like Valerie has said, in succession, “We’re getting married”, “We are married”, and “Kyle will say more later.” This gives me the distinct impression that I have the onerous responsibility to relate to you all the goings on of the last few weeks.
I’ll give it my best shot: Phase III is complete. Phase I was the happy “Get married” part, followed quickly by the happy “honeymoon” part of Phase II. Phase III was the unhappy moving part. Phase IV is the happy “sitting around waiting for school to start” part. We’re in phase IV now.
Ok. I’m done. What, you want more? Details?!! How cheeky!
Nevertheless, if it’s details you want, I’ll do my best. Putting everything in one post would be outrageously long though, so I’m going to have to break it down into the above phases, to be published as quickly as my ittle fingers can carry me. So: Continue reading “Phase III complete”
We’re not dead.
Quite the contrary in fact. We’re all moved in and have access to the outside world now by way of internet. The apartment is all set up and I promise to put pics up later. KB said that he would do the next big post so I’m not going to say anymore.
Guess what?
We’re married…whoohoo!
Whoah.
Tomorrow’s the big day and I, like any sane person, can’t sleep. Continue reading “Whoah.”
Oh my goodness!
Yesterday as I was heading out the front door to go to church, I received a pleasant shock. Continue reading “Oh my goodness!”
O That I Might Be a Curmudgeon Too!
I have learned from Victor Reppert at [Dangerous Idea](http://dangerousidea.blogspot.com) that a new Christian philosopher blog has been started. That is, another Christian philosopher has taken up the mantle of blogging, not that a blog has been started by a new Christian philosopher. That would also be interesting, but I would link to it for quite the opposite reason.
Doug Groothuis is a professor at Denver Seminary, and he’s started a new blog called [The Constructive Curmudgeon](http://theconstructivecurmudgeon.blogspot.com/). He has only 3 posts up, and each of them is so excellent that not only am I adding him to my blogroll, I think I have finally found a model for my life: When I grow up, I want to be a curmudgeon. At least, I’d like to be a curmudgeon as defined by Doug Groothuis in his [introductory post](http://theconstructivecurmudgeon.blogspot.com/2005/07/curmudgeonhood-opening-salvo.html).
