Well... I just spent the last 3 hours re-vamping around 300 lines of code for ilovemyjournal.com. Hopefully, I've made it a lot more search-engine friendly for people who want to share their blogs, without compromising security any security.
Being that this is also the 24th of July, I'm also very grateful for the pioneers, and everything the...

I was just up holding you, Collin. You awoke for some reason after we put you to bed, and I decided to be the one to go see what was the matter.

You put your little head on my shoulder and continued to rid...

I guess I just take for granted all the tips 'n' tricks I've learned over the past 10 years I've been building my own systems (along with most of my family's and friend's computers), so with that thought, let me try to explain how I build computers.

2nd Nephi : 5
PoeticIntensity
First thing which caught my attention this time around is verse 6.
I relate that verse to the way the Lord works. Basically, God lets everyone know about his plan, and those who believe Him will follow him.
This makes me wonder if Nephi, through some sort of parable, told Laman and Lemuel what he was planning to do as well, but they didn'...

To be honest, about 80% of these two chapters made no sense to me at all. I didn't put forth my best effort to understand, but I really did concentrate.

I also believe that when it s...
