HE IS RISEN!

He is Risen Indeed! AMEN.

Last night we all attended Easter Vigil at St. Charles Borromeo Church in Livermore. Lora, JD, Serenity and Max all went and witnessed my entry into full communion with the Holy Catholic Church through confirmation and first communion. Afterwards there was a pot-luck dinner and treats in the hall. There was even a cake with the names of all of us who were baptized and/or confirmed. Joining me on the cake were Mary, Maria, Lucas, Alex and Marissa. ;-) Over all it was a very long but glorious night. The mass itself lasted 3 hours, but of course we had to get there early, and we came from Ceres which meant we left the house at 6:30pm and didn't get home until 1:30am this morning. Thanks for coming with me guys, it meant a lot. :-)

Happy Easter to all of my family and friends!

I'm going to take a nap today for sure ;-)

Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think.  :-)  I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all.  Posted via email from The Angry Gnome

The Tea Parties

I didn't make our local Tea Party , but it pulled hundreds of people as well... Tea, anyone? from Father Hollywood by Father Hollywood Like hundreds of thousands of other Americans, the Hollywoods enjoyed a tea party this past Wednesday. "Tea party" (wink wink). Nothing subversive about sipping a little Darjeeling, eh wot? Nothing to see here, Miss Napolitano. Anyway, our local festivities were held at Veterans Memorial Boulevard in Metairie. There were literally thousands of people crammed into the neutral ground (though on that day, the ground was anything but...), as cars and trucks poured by the busy boulevard laing on their horns in support. Here are pictures. And like every such gathering in our environs, there was even a brass band and an improptu "second line" parade. It was a "party" after all. But it was a party with a serious reason. The crowds were so overwhelming that it was hard to hear the speakers, and unfortunately, we did have a fe...
