Blogging Eudemon

Two interesting posts from my daily blog travels: Jimmy Akin argues that Newman should be a doctor of the Church, assuming a few hurdles can be jumped [http://jimmyakin.typepad.com/defensor_fidei/2006/10/the_next_doctor.html]. I like it. I just started reading from Erich Przywara'

The Tuesday Eudemon

Surveying the Internet landscape, there's a mish-mash of semi-interesting stuff, but nothing worthy of an entire post, not even one of my 10-word ones. News for the stomach strong: Harry Potter will perform nude next summer [http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,224037,00.

Ah, Youth

I've been wearing a pedometer for about two months now. My record for steps in a day: 25,100. My ten-year-old wore my wife's pedometer today. He didn't put it on until 10:00 (he got up around 7:45). He ended

I just received Michael Polanyi, The Art of Knowing [http://www.isi.org/books/bookdetail.aspx?id=26604cb2-dd79-4c2b-ab6d-8dff38213bdc] in the mail today. Bitterly ironic in light of my post earlier today, but I'm looking forward to it. As of page ten, it reads well.

Ragnarok Cometh
