Smiley's Piano Recital
I just returned from Smiley's piano recital at Hamilton High School. The asterisk next to his name denotes the fact he was promoted to a higher group over the course of the three month long, weekly Milwaukee Rec class. He did great, and showed extraordinary confidence!

My Thoughts
's no secret I detest the media. If the story tells only who/what/where - say a shooting, a plane crash, an election result - all good. But the second they attempt to answer "why" it becomes nothing but a bully pulpit to expouse a worldview. That's true of the rare conservative report, and certainly true for the scads on the Left. It's not a free press anymore. It's not a Constitutional safeguard for our liberty. It's a propaganda tool that is suffocating truth, and no, I don't have a solution to offer you. Except, maybe, to encourage true free thinkers and patriots to go into the profession and minimize the damage others cause.

I've decided to read the Bible cover to cover this summer. In 2012 I devoted a good chunk of the summer months to a textual/ historical examination of the birth and passion narratives, but I think, given the amount of text here, that this read through will be more casual, but supplemented with exterior commentary when needed. I've just finished the Pentateuch, and Joshua, which means I've only got . . . a ton left to go.

The New Doctor Who episode
S10/E5 "Oxygen." If you ignore the sophomoric hate for capitalism, it was a very strong, very entertaining episode. By and large, this season has been impressive.
