Recovering Our Identity

If youā€™ve never seen the 1998 movie The Red Violin, I would highly recommend it. Using a series of flashbacks, the movie follows the titleā€™s namesake through key moments in its history up until modern day, when it is being prepared for auction. Appraiser Charles Morritz (played by Samuel L. Jackson) suspects this particular item might be the legendary last violin made by Nicolo Bussotti, a famous luthier. After authenticating its true identity, Morritz desires to own the violin himself and contrives a plan to replace the original with a copy whose identity is significantly less impressive.

Lifeā€™s been a little busy this past month. As a result, itā€™s taking a bit longer to finalize and post my next major article. In light of that, since itā€™s Easter, I thought I would reprint an article I posted for this day in 2018, updating it only to make it accurate for 2023.

SCRUBBING BUBBLE SALVATION

When I was a kid this product went by the nameĀ Dow Bathroom CleanerĀ and the Scrubbing Bubbles were its mascot. In the commercial, these cartoon bubbles with brush bristles for legs would race up and down the tub and

Brian and Sean have been visiting Georgeā€™s barbershop since they were in college. Georgeā€™s trims are neat, reasonably priced, and accompanied by a lively chat. One Saturday in April, Brian took the chair first while Sean scanned emails and texts on his phone while waiting for his turn. Somehow, the conversation drifted to cars, a subject Brian knew little about. He did like to save money, however, which is why he still drives a 15-year-old Honda Civic and learned how to change his own oil.

Right off the bat, let me say yes, I know. This article is a month too late. You donā€™t recommend a ā€œBible-In-A-Yearā€ plan that is best started on January 1st midway through the month. Hopefully, you saw my brief mention The Bible Recap and checked it out, but if not, I apologize. However, just because you missed the official start date doesnā€™t mean youā€™re out of luck. You can start anytime, but more on that later.Ā  First, I felt it might be helpful to share how I benefitted from reading through the Bible in a year.

This wasnā€™t my first journey through the scriptures. In fact, I had just finished a chronological

It is commonplace in the video game industry for developers to issue a ā€œRoad Mapā€ for the upcoming year.Ā  This road map is a statement of what is planned over the next twelve months: what games will be released, what upgrades are being worked on, what new games are being developed, etc. Its primary purpose is to build excitement amongst customers and investors. However, it also provides these same people a means to hold the developer accountable for the promises that have been made.

In the same manner, as 2023 looms ahead, I am renewing my commitment to Half Air and I wanted to share my plans in my own
