Top 3 of 2010: My Favourite Things

By filsinger On January 4, 2011 · 2 Comments

I’ve made it an annual tradition to write what my favourite things of the year are in a blog post. My blogging hit a serious downtown this year as I got too busy with having a kid, and changing jobs at my company. I plan to rectify that this year and blog at least once a month, and hopefully twice a month if I get the time. I’m excited for this year, but it’s fun looking back. Here are my favourite things of this past year.

Book Review: Stuff Christians Like (dotnet)

By filsinger On April 12, 2010 · Leave a Comment

You know that feeling you get when you are on the inside of an ‘inside joke’.  You know those stupid references to situations that happened on some road trip or outing with friends.  Usually it’s just a stupid word or catch phrase that outside of its context makes absolutely zero sense, but people who were [...]

By filsinger On August 5, 2009 · Leave a Comment

About a year ago I ran across the title of a book called The Sparrow while searching for something new to read.  It then took me about 5 book stores to track down a copy and a few places had never even heard of it.  The wiki article states that Brad Pitt picked up [...]

Album Review: K-OS – YES!

I have this love/hate relationship with K-OS.  All of my animosity can be traced back to the fact that he walked off stage in the middle of the one chance I had ever had to see him live.  From my perspective he threw a tantrum over the fact that not everyone at the [...]

The Irresistible Revolution: A simple book review

By filsinger On March 15, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I went a lot of years without reading.  After University I got really tired of the process, and completely abandoned it for a long period of time.  Within the last few years I have really tried to get into the habit to always have my nose in a book, or two.  There are a ton [...]

The Shack – When God gets taken out of the box, people get scared.

I had been fairly immune and disconnected from all the ranting, raving, and lunacy surrounding The Shack up until a few months ago. I had heard in passing that the author was going to be speaking at my old University and thought very little of it. Even at that point all I heard was that [...]
