Did you ever want to be happy and grow up to be it? Thursday, September 05, 2013. 10 Hate Crimes Against Students. The blogger at The Other Class created a list. 1 Holding yourself and your knowledge in such esteem that you can't admit your humanity. 2 Syllabus proofreading crimes. You cut and pasted that from another semester, didn't you? 3 Instructions vs. Syllabus War. 4 Allowing students to flaunt rules. Phones Off, On the Table, Screen Down, Hands Off. 5 Changing the syllabus - every week. 7 Germs: ...

hikerrev: December 2013
http://hikerrev.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Trying to pay attention to what's going on in the world around me. Friday, December 6, 2013. The Hunger Games - some additional brief thoughts. Last week I was compelled to post something about the recent * *. Movie by the teenagers who were making lots of noise in our tv room. The next morning, the teenagers who stayed over the night are raiding our kitchen for breakfast, I was compelled to think about the bigger-picture issues that are brought up in the. Conduct herself during the games. At the same ti...

hikerrev: Belonging
http://hikerrev.blogspot.com/2014/07/belonging.html
Trying to pay attention to what's going on in the world around me. Monday, July 7, 2014. The other day, the day after I arrived back at my home after a mont-long journey, I went to work out at the (amazing, fantastic, unbelivable) gym where I'm a member. I walked in to the gym, into a large group of people, into a surprising welcome. I felt like the mere fact that I had returned and was going to work out again was celebrated - I felt like I had arrived at a place where I belong. What's the difference bet...

hikerrev: Lent, Week Five
http://hikerrev.blogspot.com/2014/04/lent-week-five.html
Trying to pay attention to what's going on in the world around me. Wednesday, April 9, 2014. Lent, Week Five. During this season of Lent, I'm writing reflections based on the psalm assigned for each Sunday by the Revised Common Lectionary (look it up, if you want), and sharing those with the congregation I serve when we gather for Evening Prayer on Wednesday evenings. This reflection is from April 9, week five, and is based on Psalm 130. You ever sing the blues? Ever play the blues? Down in the dumps.

hikerrev: June 2013
http://hikerrev.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Trying to pay attention to what's going on in the world around me. Friday, June 28, 2013. I had a surprising experience the other day. Before you read about that, though, you should know this. Then, the other day when I went into a coffee shop I hadn't been to before, I was surprised by a little bit of culture shock … which was really pleasant. To a person, the staff seemed genuinely joyful. I first noticed this when I ordered. It was truly a joyful coffee experience for me. Tuesday, June 11, 2013. It's ...

hikerrev: Royalty
http://hikerrev.blogspot.com/2014/07/royalty.html
Trying to pay attention to what's going on in the world around me. Wednesday, July 2, 2014. Royalty: an internationally-connected, and often wealthy, group of people who stewards a nation and provides for the large-scale needs of all of the people. Peasantry: a locally-connected, and often not wealthy, group of people who steawards the local land and landscape, and who provide for the small-scale needs of all of the people. I would have loved some kind of compare-and-contrast presentation - maybe a look ...

hikerrev: November 2014
http://hikerrev.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Trying to pay attention to what's going on in the world around me. Tuesday, November 25, 2014. Some Thoughts on Ferguson. The decision announced last night to not indict Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of Mr. Michael Brown is no longer only about this one incident, if it ever even was. This incident has become, and is, about the state of race relations in this country that so many of us love. I move through every day assuming that I'll be safe, that I'll be able to get what I need at almost a...
