This looks like a neat writing curriculum, Brave writing. What does it mean to remember? I haven’t watched this TED video yet, but it looks really fascinating. I enjoyed reading about a Day in the Life of a Waldorf Kindergarten. Some thought-provoking ideas about reading from Albert Mohler. I haven’t completely watched this video either (for some reason I have a really hard time watching videos) , but the subject, why MOOCs still matter,…

Glad to see this website, it expresses my feelings about flying and the TSA. Some will say that I’m making a big deal of nothing, but what is more important than our health and privacy?

The False Front of Voting

A spectacular post by Jeffery Tucker on the reality of voting. A must-read, in my opinion. Wish I read it Tuesday morning instead of finding it that night.

I know this seems like I’m terribly biased towards Christians being anarchists, as the only articles I post are from that side of it.

When I find it, I will post it. But in the meantime, here is one from LewRockwell.com.
