Making Waves with Tubas – Online Adventures in Personal Boundaries

Written by Dharma Voyager on May 26, 2010 — Leave a Comment

Another cloudy day has brought me here to repent.  I thought perhaps writing this article in this place, would be appropriate, especially since it is here that I have typed long and hard about the good things I think about.  I am kind of proud that in close to 400 posts I have really had [...]

Struggling with my Quesadilla – Apple Pie Dreams or Quesadilla Nightmare?

Written by Dharma Voyager on April 29, 2010 — Leave a Comment

Tasty cheesy bits coat my teeth. This particular variant of chicken quesadilla has been nuanced with the modern refinements of a sun-dried tomato corn-ish wrap. A rather impressive achievement. Well, I’m thinking not so much a technological achievement, more like an achievement in culinary mass production technology. I wonder what the top ten quesadilla makers [...]

Book: A Letter to a Christian Nation – Atheist Porn?

Written by Dharma Voyager on April 28, 2010 — Leave a Comment

I was going to originally title this post, “Sam Harris, The Sexiest Man Alive”, but then I thought that would probably be too honest.  In any case, I suspect that I’m not Sam’s type, but now I’m really getting off track of the subject of this post. Kind of like the others but different. I [...]

Sewing The Seeds of Eco-snobbery – Earth Hour

Written by Dharma Voyager on March 30, 2009 — Leave a Comment

I’m afraid my new little project has taken me from writing my weekend posts. This means that this week’s posts might be a little slim.  I am trying a new craft thingy, and I am not sure anything productive will come out of it, except of course me having a bit of fun.  I’ll try [...]

Sharing an Election in Second Life

Written by Dharma Voyager on November 6, 2008 — 2 Comments

  I thought I might share a moment with you that I’m sure you have all shared.  I shared it with friends far away through Second Life.  The election went on with my Sangha friends.  But here are some pictures from later on in the evening as we watched the Obama speech. Have shrooms will [...]

  A few days ago McCain and Obama were at the Alfred E Smith dinner.  John McCain was actually much funnier than I ever imagined.  Here are the clips from the dinner if you have not seen them yet.  Very funny.

I’m not George Bush – And other strange photos

Written by Dharma Voyager on October 17, 2008 — Leave a Comment

Morphing software is cool huh… had to try it McCain as Zombie? Today there was a news report that McCain is actually a zombie… this one cracked me up. From: http://actionnooz.com/news/?p=2042 So funny See I knew he switched to democrat before the last debate … Wild way to get the Democrat vote. Maybe the Republicans [...]

Random thoughts during the last debate

Written by Dharma Voyager on October 16, 2008 — Leave a Comment

McCain is doing a lot better than the previous debates, but boy he is still awful. Obama is shining..  Obama seems a thoughtful, detail oriented, articulate, considerate, a seemingly caring person. Obama is just plain out-intelligencing McCain. I pity McCain.  I am listening but he just cannot explain to me clearly what he would do.  [...]
