Grow-a-row

June 26th, 2008

Gardening with wheelbarrowMy wife and I have been slaving away in the backyard of our new rented home for the last few weeks and now that sod and pavers are laid, it’s time for us to quickly get our raised bed garden planted before the springtime planting window escapes us.  With that in mind I’ve been ripe with anticipation to reap the benefits of my home garden and have begun dreaming of the meals and dishes I plan to make with it.

God God?Our buddies over at Church Marketing Labs (aka Church Marketing Sucks) have dug up a super neat-o presentation on mixing business and ministry. The CEO of Kanakuk Kamps has posted an interesting presentation on achieving the proper balance between non-profit servitude and tough business moxy.

The Story of Stuff

June 10th, 2008

217x188_sos_banner005.jpgGood God I’m starting to sound like some bleeding heart liberal tree hugger but damn it if sometimes they just make sense! Today I came across the web site called The Story of Stuff. Annie Leanord lays it all out and draws a very compelling picture of the state of consumerism and the world we live in. This is definitely worth a watch.

Fifty Thousand Shirts

Oh the lengths we go…

June 5th, 2008

What’s better than hypermiling? What’s more fuel efficient than driving a gas/electric hybrid? How about a gas/human hybrid! That’s right folks, I’m building a gas power assisted bicycle to drag me along on my 10 mile daily commute. I’ve been hypermiling in the Four Runner these days and I have the MPG up to about 34 miles per gallon. But, for a $10 broken weedeater and a few miscellaneous parts from the local hardware store, I’ll be getting closer to 150+MPG in the very near future.
