Yesterday, I spotted this article on MSNBC.com: “Man posts ex-girlfriend’s nude pics on Facebook, gets convicted”. The article gets into the nature of revenge men often take when they’ve been scorned by a woman, and whether or not posting pictures or videos they have in their possession — given to them as “gifts” during happier [...]

  Last night, Scott and I watched “Lost in Woonsocket,” a documentary about two alcoholic homeless men found living in a tent in Rhode Island, and the story of their rocky journey to sobriety. One makes it, the other doesn’t. The premise of the story began with the filmmakers’ theory that connecting one person in [...]

  My Mom was really into genealogy, and when I miss her, I Google her name so I can see her posts on genealogy forums online. I never shared her love of our family’s history for some reason, but maybe as I grow old that’ll change. I’m like her in so many other ways. And [...]

Watch these true-story videos about texting and driving, and tell me: what should be the penalty for texting and driving? Texting and driving resulting in an accident? In an injury? In a death? Deadly Car Crash – While Texting [Very Graphic] Bus Driver Caught Texting Seconds Before Crash Texting While Driving, Alex Brown Tragedy Utah [...]

A friend of mine, Scott Sainsbury, recently had a discussion on his Facebook wall about a Facebook ad for a New Hampshire attorney who defends DWI cases. Scott writes: This ad was right here on Facebook. Don’t you think it clearly says it is ok to drink and drive? This is truly in poor taste. [...]

We’re DVR fanatics in my home. Every week, year ’round, each of us has television shows we’re determined not to miss, and we even bicker sometimes over whose shows will be recorded when there’s a conflict. You’d think we’re big TV watchers, but we’re not. At least, I don’t think we are. Here’s what I [...]

I’m so grateful to men and women like Martin Luther King, Jr. — brave, committed souls willing to go the distance to fight injustice, but with the principles of nonviolence, and with the power of words and ideals meant to inspire, empower, and persuade, not to inflame. I think that kind of resistance takes phenomenal [...]

Have you ever been around someone, or seen them in an interview, and thought, “There’s just something about him that’s so different…”? For Christians, that “something different” isn’t a surprise. Or at least, it shouldn’t be. Several years ago, Jason Castro sang “Broken Hallelujah” on American Idol, with a tenderness and intimacy I hadn’t seen [...]

  I saw on the news this morning that Lincoln, RI police are searching for a guy who attacked an elderly driver’s vehicle in a senior center parking lot — with the victim still inside, terrified, I’m sure. The video footage from security cameras shows the furious man punching the driver’s side window, tearing the [...]

Yesterday, I read on Twitter that earlier the same morning, Social Media celebrity Trey Pennington shockingly took his own life, in the parking lot of his (former?) church. The details are sketchy right now, and don’t matter, really. I’m as curious as the next person, though, and spent the evening looking through the photos on [...]
