Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

- Up early, in time for Church wow, no need to buy an
alarm clock it transpires.
- Excellent sermon, really cracking sermon on
"Experiencing God's forgiveness", I thought of a challenge to
the liberal - the imperfection of human justice:
- Some people's crimes are so utterly evil, merciless,
torture, mass murder, compunctionless killing that human justice
can provide no recompense - even death [ captial punishment is
applied barbarism ] is a release for them. The solution is God's frightening justice.
- The second picture was that of the Cross, which is
(rightly) seen as a symbol of Love, and God's reconciliation with
a sinful world, but it is also more frightening - a symbol of God's
blazing, just, anger with all the things we do wrong. The price
he paid for our freedom was paid there.
- Got the T back - the Charles river is totaly frozen over,
and covered in glittering snow untouched by human feet, except in a few
places ( perhaps the current is stronger there ), the sun was shining
on the river and things looked pretty.
- Lunch with Chema and Bradford - the food court's new
Crepe place, walked beside the Mall, the Lotus building is rather
huge - perhaps we'll need a building that big one day.
- Sat in the office contemplating private mail, listening
to the Cambridge Singers' "Treasures of English Church Music",
excellent.
- Off to Church with Chema, met up with Matthew for
dinner first which was nice, great service - few people there,
most at the superbowl - sermon on prayer.
Hadn't realized how consistantly Luke emphasizes it in his Gospel,
lots of cross linkage.
- Back to the office to see the chaps - more people
chipping away at the block.
- Watched Rounders about poker playing - the gambling life
is a waste of time, the guy chooses addiction instead of love - moron.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
