I’m at Church of the Nativity (Episcopal) in Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia this morning to welcome new believers into the family of Jesus. It’s a good day for some good people.
A Place Of Celebration And Faith

A Commentary on Linux and Computer Hardware
Apple launched a new series of MacBooks recently called Neo. They are powered by the same chips that power iPhones. I think the company is producing so many new things that something you bought last year seems obsolete. That planned obsolescence cannot be good for the environment because of the e-waste it produces. We are also aware of Windows 11 making many systems obsolete too.
I am glad to do my part to keep older machines going as long as possible. Thanks to Linux working on perfectly good machines it can make a difference. It’s also fun and cool to keep an older system going with a little creativity such as more memory and SSDs. To the Linux community lets keep making our favorite distros better and easier for new users to come on board so they can save some time and money.
I recommend ZorinOS, Fedora or Linux Mint for anyone wanting to get into the Linux game. They are powerful operating systems that is easy on older systems. They are also full of features that will help you get things done such as web browsing, word processing, graphics, podcasts, email, music, gaming and more.
It’s Friday The 13th, Oh My!
Friends it’s Friday The 13th again. It’s ok to be superstitious because we live in crazy days. Have the best day possible. Good luck good people.
Tim Hortons On A Tuesday
Kicking the day off right with Canadian coffee legend Tim Hortons. It’s not quite a double double but it will do nicely.
Rest In Power Mark and Jaye
Two good people I know passed away recently. Mark who was a high school classmate and Jaye who was a fellow parishioner at church both passed away within the last couple of days. I liked both of them, and it saddens me that they are no longer with us. Jaye fought a 15-year battle with cancer and Mark had health issues of his own. Both men were good people. I am better for have known them and had them in my life. May their memories be a blessing. Godspeed good sirs.
Blessed are those who mourn.
International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day is celebrated on March 8th commemorating women’s fight for equality and liberation along with the women’s rights movement. On International Women’s Day focus is given to issues such as gender equality, reproductive rights, and violence and abuse against women.
I would like to honor all the women in my life who have made our family better and the world a better place. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I love you.
On this International Women’s Day I would like to recognize the first woman to hold the office of The Archbishop Of Canterbury, The Most Reverend and Right Honorable Sarah Mullally. She is the leader of the Anglican Communion that reaches world-wide including the Episcopal Church that I am part of. Women in the clergy do amazing work despite facing discrimination in some parts of the Christian community.
