I trust you are enjoying the blessings of summer. May you get just the right amount of rain, and the right amount of sunshine, and the grace to appreciate both. I’ll keep this part short, because the feature has grown longer today. Just a personal note, Dad and I are driving to Winnipeg this weekend. [...]

Well, I’m more or less back on track. So I can make my announcement that was preempted last time. Since this is a rather small mailing list (i.e. fairly short list of subscribers), and because only one or two ever send any feedback, I’ve decided to ease my work load in this effort. Instead of [...]

Tuesday morning, I opened KWord and pulled up some files on a floppy disk from my old 286 computer downstairs (where I do my devotions). The first one I had converted to RTF and it opened okay, but when I opened the second one, KWord “hung up” or greyed out, and I couldn’t close it [...]

I have been playing here with a different Profit vs. Loss Balance sheet. Sort of bending a metaphor to suit my business image here. Only it wanders off when we get too detailed. In 1996 I wrote a poem called, Ha, They Think I´m Poor! in which I compared my spiritual liabilities to my assets. [...]

ENCOURAGEMENT ~ Your Vast Stock of Seeds In spring our thoughts soon turn to sowing seeds in our garden – at least our house. Maybe you’ve never cared for mucking about in soil, and fussing over seeds or seedlings. Okay. So there’s a cleaner kind of seed to work with too. You can sow these [...]

Another Whew! I’ve been busy night! But oh, it feels good to be productive, doesn’t it? I’ve worked steadily at least an hour a day for the last two weeks, to get this series of web page articles written and polished to show what I see as the best business models online, and how to [...]
