0

Looks different, doesn’t it? After hosting my own web sites forever, I’m trying to simplify my server admin life. I’m moving Hennessy’s View to another service from my own servers. The difference you should see is the theme.  (I’m tired of the minimalism.) Also, some archives from before 2010 might be missing for a while.… [Read more…]

And it made a simple statement: “It must be nice to live in a country where you get freer every day.” I thought of this while… [Read more…]

February 27, 2012

1

The 3rd Anniversary Tea Party rocked . . . because of the great patriot-activists who have decided it’s time to act and win. Although Dr. Larry Schweikart couldn’t make it (because of the Chicago snow storm), Friday’s event was better than planned or expected.  Tea Party champion Michael Patrick Leahy jumped into fill a last-minute… [Read more…]

Just because it’s after 10:00 am, doesn’t mean you can’t come to the 3rd Anniversary Tea Party. No, we didn’t come up with a policy for people who arrive late to the feast. We will find a way to get you involved that’s fair to everyone. Grab your laptop or your mobile device, if you… [Read more…]

Today begins Lent. Lent prepares us for the cycle of mortality and resurrection, perfected by Christ, without which life has no meaning. It’s a time of humility. We call to mind our human brokenness in hopes of making ourselves better imitators of Christ. On Ash Wednesday, we mark ourselves with the sign of the cross… [Read more…]
