A couple new features are floating around here, just to let you know. First, if you scroll down and look on the left hand side, you will see that the site now has a search feature. Hope it helps. Also, off to the immediate left, I now have the capacity to rotate in various web …
High Mountain Air
Haven’t posted anything in a week, and that is because my wife and I were off in Florida at the annual family advance sponsored by Trinity Presbyterian Church in lovely Sandestin. The other conference speaker was Rob Rayburn, who simply did an outstanding job. Listening to him speak is like breathing high mountain air. His …
A Vietnam War Crime
Well, it seems that Vietnam is not only back in the news, but is back in a visceral way. Since we are all reliving this, and I had no real outlet for addressing any of it at the time, allow me just a few thoughts. I watched a few minutes of John Kerry’s 1971 Senate …

Time Zones
Had a wonderful visit to Atlanta, and the ACCS conference was one of the best yet. Anyhow, being out of town precluded posting to this thing, which accounts for my uncharacteristic silence. But there it is. I’m back, anyhow. But it is a strange thing waking up in Georgia and going to bed in Idaho.
Boys and Poetry
One of the great disasters of our day (and there are many to choose from) can be found in the fact that most boys hold poetry in contempt. For various reasons, and it is a long and sordid story, a love for poetry can get you designated as some kind of a swish. This is …
Association of Classical and Christian Schools

You can register on line (just click here http://www.accsedu.org/). Education is one of the central battleground issues of our day, and it is hard to …
