Talk about a movie about life and death consequences this adventure on Mars and Earth is one of the best of the year. Matt Damon is awesome in this brilliant sci-fi picture. I enjoyed it immensely.
Assisting In The Eucharist At St. Peter’s Episcopal Church
Today at church I assisted with the Eucharist/Communion at church for the first time since I have been at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church. This is me in an alb which is a liturgical vestment that is worn in many churches for the clergy as well as those assisting in the Mass/worship. I am holding a chalice with real wine that we use each week in worship. I love doing this sort of thing at church because it brings me closer to Christ to help others in such a way.
Happy Sunday Good People
I hope you all have a great day. May God bless and keep you today. Have fun in whatever you are up to today. Grace and peace y’all.

Nerds/Geeks Can Enjoy Sports Too
It’s true, I enjoy athletic competition. Sports have lots of nerd friendly stuff like math and science. It’s also a cultural event too. Many of my fellow nerds just can’t get into it and call anything athletic “sportsball” because to them it’s just a foreign thing. Granted I am not a hardcore sports fan, I don’t watch ESPN (a sports channel in America) all the time nor do I read the sports page of the local paper all the time. For me sports is about supporting community teams and I try to relate to others this way. I am not big on golf though although I do have a friend who is big into it. Sports can be a way to release aggression and it can promote physical fitness too. Fantasy sports can blend technology and sports through fantasy football and the like. So fellow sports fans, cheer for the home team wherever you are.
