The Sun Keeps Rising: Things Fall Apart
http://thesunkeepsrising.blogspot.com/2005/09/things-fall-apart.html
The Sun Keeps Rising. Monday, September 26, 2005. Chinua Achebe details the life of a tribal leader in Nigeria whose existence is slowly though painfully destroyed. It's less about colonialism (although the arrival of missionaries thoroughly wipes out any hope we might have for the protagonist's return to power) than it is about pride, erosion of tradition, and change. At least, I think that's what it's about. It's been exactly 11 years since I read it. So basically, because I've been freaked out and gen...

The Sun Keeps Rising: September 2004
http://thesunkeepsrising.blogspot.com/2004_09_01_archive.html
The Sun Keeps Rising. Sunday, September 26, 2004. Wyoming Won. Holy Shit. Wyoming Won. The Wyoming Cowboys, in accordance with Lee Corso's upset special prediction, beat the Mississippi Rebels yesterday in Laramie. This Cowboy team, while certainly not the best team in the Mountain West Conference, will hopefully bring some glory back to Wyoming football. Time was, we were respected and feared. In unison. Loud. For a long time. Now, I'm usually not quite as bloodthirsty as the behavior I witnessed and pa...

The Sun Keeps Rising: July 2004
http://thesunkeepsrising.blogspot.com/2004_07_01_archive.html
The Sun Keeps Rising. Thursday, July 29, 2004. Open Letter to John Kerry. Great speech tonight. I thought the line about "saying 'Mission Accomplished' doesn't make it so" was pretty good. You seemed to sweat alot, though. I think I also didn't vote because of the pretentious, flawed, and cynical belief that abstaining from voting is a valid form of protest. You know, "lesser of two evils is still evil" and all that crap. You delivered your speech, not what issues you addressed. As much faith as I ha...

Explorers Are We: December 2005
http://explorersarewe.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Many times a simple choice can prove to be essential even though it often might appear inconseqnetial. Saturday, December 17, 2005. Reflections on a Saturday Afternoon. Most recent post, I felt compelled to write about my own experiences with the healthcare professionals that have played a significant role in my life. I’ve put a decent amount of thought into how exactly I should go about writing this post. But I don’t’ want to sound like a complete schmuck either, so I’ve been putting it off. He told me ...

The Sun Keeps Rising: Monday
http://thesunkeepsrising.blogspot.com/2005/09/monday.html
The Sun Keeps Rising. Tuesday, September 13, 2005. Monday, 7:00am. Wake up fully rested by alarm for the first time this semester. Feel refreshed. This feeling lasts approximately five minutes, when it occurs to me in the shower that I have a metric ton of homework and reading due on Tuesday. Monday, 8:00am. Breakfast at Washakie. Avoid Honey Nut Cheerios because the last time I tried them they were plain Cheerios because the Washakie staff can't read labels. Eat a bowl of Life instead. Monday, 2:05pm to...

The one thing in the world, of value, is the active soul. Friday, December 16, 2005. Full Throttle to the Bottle and Full Full Clout - And I'm Out. Name that tune, ladies and gents. More later. Right now I'm just going to soak in the moment. Posted by theactivesoul @ 12:06 PM. Thursday, December 15, 2005. On our final day of Methods II, we post-bac types delivered presentations on our graduate-level coursework. Mine was a high-falutin' manifesto inspired by Postman and Weingartner's. Yesterday on my way ...

The one thing in the world, of value, is the active soul. Saturday, January 21, 2006. Nothing to See Here. Seriously. I feel like I should update because, well, I know at least two people check this blog fairly regularly. But honestly, nothing too exciting happened in my life this week - nothing that I can write about here, anyway. What are you up to today? Posted by theactivesoul @ 10:02 AM. Saturday, January 14, 2006. Damn You John Mayer! Damn You and Your Grotesquely Large Hands! Message in a Bottle.
