I was at Warrenton High School’s first football game of the season tonight when I saw something groundbreaking. I haven’t seen it in years and years, but tonight it happened. I saw a child on a leash. Full chest and body harness, attached to a 1″ nylon chord. A leash. See for yourself here. That’s… [Read more…]

We’ve been pushing our Tagged Ministry since January and retired Cletus in April or so. When we did, we started thinking of more ideas for promoting the ministry and the videos we would do.

Today we went to a place that I had not been to since I was an itsy bitsy boy. The Magic House! Now, Magic is a metaphor for technology and advances in modern science.
