Uma capa excêntrica, exagerada no “figurino disco”, foi o que me deixou curioso e me fez ouvir Bohannon. A convicção das batidas e dos arranjos impressionou logo de cara. Pesquisando mais, descobri que Bohannon não era apenas mais um entre milhares de artistas da febre funk/disco que, precipitadamente, achei que fosse. Nascido na Georgia, em 1942, Hamilton Bohannon começou sua carreira na década de 60, como baterista na banda de Stevie Wonder. Quando se mudou ...

Filed under: Cell Phones, Computers, Celebrities, iPhone Let's not beat around the bush here, the Catholic Church has always been a pretty big fan of blaming the downfall of man on popular culture and entertainment. And like the sound of AC/DC, somethings never change. The Pope is finding himself a little conflicted over cell phones. The same Vatican that started showering young churchgoers with text messages is now faulting mobile phones (and of course the ...

Our kids are 21 and 17. Grown up. Almost. Our 21-year-old son still lives at home and attends a local university, and our 17-year-old daughter is a senior in high school. Last week, I wrote about letting go of them, because we know that in another year they will both be gone from home. Last Thursday, our son was offered an opportunity to be the head-freelancer for two sections of our local newspaper. He called ...

Here is my analytical review of Dan Allender’s latest book. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Not only is the book rich, but take a closer look at the cover of this book, what an excellent design. If you hit the cover it will get larger. The way in which I do this review is share a bit about the author, the authors thesis, an overview then some of my own thoughts on the book. With that ...

John Wesley started a church. That’s a very condensed statement, so condensed as to be false. He, with others, started a movement. They had smaller groups. In the groups, people cared enough to ask each other, “How is it with your soul?” There is a tendency to lie as we answer that question, to not disclose what is really going on. We can talk about our busyness as if that needs must shape what is ...

In an event that had hoped for an attendance of 1,000 people at our local LGBT center for a No On Prop 8 rally, over 6,000 attended. I was there with 4 of my local friends, my friend from Chicago, and a friend who had taken the train down from Carlsbad. Though the crowd at the Center didn't seem that large, we could hear the chanting and noises emminating from University Avenue where people forewent ...

The Story Continues… {the beginning is here} More About My Dark Night of the Soul Last post, I’d said my search for spiritual answers in secular haunts led me to a lot of devilish activity. I’m not knocking all secular (non-religious) knowledge—we’d still be in the Stone Age without it. What I’m getting at is acquiring only secular knowledge—keeping your knowledge grounded in materialistic concerns, not hitching it to a spiritual star… “If the material ...

Julie Driscoll & Brian Auger (at the organ, natch) “Listen - Brian Auger, Julie Driscoll & the Trinity - MP3″ Greetings all. Here’s hoping the beginning of another new week finds you all well. The tune I bring you today, while not a ‘Hammond Groove’, actually contains Hammond organ, and is quite groovy, so we might just be better of considering that particular hair split, and move on. Brian Auger and Julie Driscoll (and of ...
