While listening on Pandora.com a week or two ago I discovered this beautiful song, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. It’s called “Sanctuary Medley” by Greg Maroney
Here is a link for you: Sanctuary Medley

(Actually, this is a edited version, I don’t care much for the beginning part, so I cut it out)

I’ve recorded another song! It’s not the final recording, but, it turned out so well I decided to post it.

(note “not the final recording ” meaning: Yes, this is how it will be played, but hopefully the audio quality will be a little better. (complete silence was not observed during the recording))

Here is a link for you: http://www.rlewatkins.com/audio/Castle%20on%20a%20Cloud.mp3

It can also be found under the Music page.

Let me know what you think.

Well I hope everyone had a Great Christmas! I certainly did =D

Now for a few of my favorite things:

This is (arguably) the best Christmas present received at the Watkins house:

Even though there were quite a few other notable (and very nice) things, the PowerPopper is one that everyone (except maybe mom) loved. =D

And my favorite wallpaper:

And that’s all for now.

The NCFIC Sufficiency of Scripture conference was amazing. It was one of the best (if not the best) conferences I’ve ever been to. (I think I took around 20 pages of notes)

On a side note, who’s the one using Google Chrome on a Verizon Wireless internet connection??? (come on, fess up)

I decided to swich over to a winter theme, because… it’s winter! (well technically it starts on the 21st, but in my opinion, it’s already here).

Due to some recent criticism I’ve received about the spelling and grammar on this blog, my post today will venture from my usual subject (tech), and dive into the - often pointless and undoubtedly confusing – world of grammar.

To begin…

Today while I was scrolling through my RSS feeds (using Google Reader), I happened upon a new post from Lifehacker Titled: “Apostrophe.me Ends Your Apostrophe Ponderings“. Since I am one (of millions) who rather consistently misplaces and missuses apostrophes (due to their confusing application and nature), this caught my attention, so naturally I clicked the link to go check out this (presumably) insightful/useful website. To my surprise I was greeted with nice, clean page (“clean” meaning a simple layout, not confusing, and not full of ad banners or other distractions from the point of the website) that cleverly and comically explained how, when and where to correctly use an apostrophe.

So, here’s the link http://apostrophe.me/ go check it out and let me know what you think.

toodles,
