“We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” — John Adams, June 21, 1776

JavaScript is very similar to Scheme.

My thoughts on marriage (and homosexual “marriage” in particular) have
changed a little bit over the time since it became “legalized”, so I
figured I’d share a bit about my current thinking. If you aren’t
interested in my thoughts on the topic, feel free to stop reading. I’m
likely to ramble some a bit, anyway.

My wife and I recently received a large shipment of copies of the book Does the Birth Control Pill Cause Abortions? by Randy Alcorn. If anybody would like a copy, please email me (pete@cooperjr.name) and I’d be happy to get one to you.

Today, I received notification that I’ve been officially promoted to Magic DCI Area (Level 2) Judge. (I passed the test a month ago, but now the “paperwork”‘s gone through to make it official.)

Today is also our third wedding anniversary. I still love you, Jessi!

Now that I’m traveling to more and more events, the utility of a cell phone is becoming more and more apparent. I’ve been staying away from them since they don’t work anywhere near my house, but perhaps they’d be useful when away from home. But, it’d be used rarely, so I’m thinking that perhaps some prepaid plan may work best. (Our home phone line usage averages 150 minutes a month, and this is likely to be used much less than that.) Just wondering if people have recommendations or suggestions.

Yesterday, our young adult bible study group was meeting, and I remember there was some discussion that it may have been at a different place than normal. Shortly before going, I dug through my email (where the discussion took place) but couldn’t authoritatively determine what consensus as to a location had been reached. So, I ended up calling the location where it usually was to determine that it had, in fact, been moved.

Many users (and some email programs) don’t really grok the distinction between the “From” and “Sender” email headers.

Bad news: I’ve been sick last night and today. :(

Good news: I got my reverse DNS for my IPv6 block (which is now 2001:4840:ffff:fff0::/64, and should stay that way) delegated to my own DNS server, so I have forward and reverse resolution for my personal workstation (edgar.cooperjr.name) set up now.

After about a week of trying SixXS to get connected to the world of IPv6, I finally tried a different approach and used a Linksys router and EarthLink’s project to manage to connect.

I’m now the proud owner and user of 2001:4840:ffff:c02e::/64.
