Notes in the Sand. A Journalist's Perspective Around the World. Hazard Training P2 - Tennessee Simulation. Our host, photo-journalist, Robert King was gracious enough to open his home for training and course work.

Notes in the Sand. A Journalist's Perspective Around the World. West Bound Road: A Series of Absurd Essays About A Journey to the Coast (#OutOfOrder2). I knew I head to get a head start. I'm a night owl and knowing that I wanted to try to and get to the Texas border by dawn, I had to go - despite protests from my aunt, I had slept all day and couldn't sit still. I was ready to get back to work, but not before I stopped to see my grandfather. I bit my lip and rode away. Links to this post. We walked insid...

It was just after 1-a-m and my phone was beeping at me, who in the world was sending me text messages?

The Journeyman: Just Your Typical, Friendly Neighborhood Tram Ride
http://jthelmsdeep.blogspot.com/2011/11/just-your-typical-friendly-neighborhood.html

This video, posted only yesterday on youtube, is the very definition of viral. It's had almost two and a half million hits as at the time of my embedding it. I love that! You see, recently I was teaching on a passage of Scripture taken from Luke 10:25-37. It's come to be popularly known as the story of "The Good Samaritan.". I'm eternally grateful that he asked...

The Journeyman: The virtue of doubt and the unknown
http://jthelmsdeep.blogspot.com/2012/03/virtue-of-doubt-and-unknown.html
All this thinking makes my head hurt, but it's worth the journey! Thursday, March 1, 2012. The virtue of doubt and the unknown.

http://jthelmsdeep.blogspot.com/2011/11/new-cultural-inventors-of-evil.html
All this thinking makes my head hurt, but it's worth the journey! Monday, November 21, 2011. The New Cultural Inventors of Evil. This is a rant. Actually, this is an angry rant. If you’re not up to it, slowly take your fingers off the keyboard and back away from the computer. Still here? Okay, just as long as you don’t say I didn’t warn you. It’s a given that in our post-modern world there are things that go on that—shall we say—raise the eyebrows. For girls as young as seven years old! Crotchless pantie...
