Profile

Name:Daniel
Home: Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
About Me: I used to believe that evolution was reasonable, that homosexuality was genetic, and that people became Christians because they couldn't deal with the 'reality' that this life was all there was. I used to believe, that if there was a heaven - I could get there by being good - and I used to think I was more or less a good person. I was wrong on all counts. One day I finally had my eyes opened and I saw that I was not going to go to heaven, but that I was certainly going to suffer the wrath of God for all my sin. I saw myself as a treasonous rebel at heart - I hated God for creating me just to send me to Hell - and I was wretched beyond my own comprehension. Into this spiritual vacuum Jesus Christ came and he opened my understanding - delivering me from God's wrath into God's grace. I was "saved" as an adult, and now my life is hid in Christ. I am by no means sinless, but by God's grace I am a repenting believer - a born again Christian.

The Buzz

Daniel's posts are almost always pastoral and God centered. I appreciate and am challenged by them frequently. He has a great sense of humor as well.
- Marc Heinrich

His posts are either funny or challenging. He is very friendly and nice.
- Rose Cole

[He has] good posts, both the serious like this one, and the humorous like yesterday. [He is] the reason that I have restrained myself from making Canadian jokes in my posts.
- C-Train

This post contains nothing that is of any use to me. What were you thinking? Anyway, it's probably the best I've read all day.
- David Kjos

Daniel, nicely done and much more original than Frank the Turk.
- Jonathan Moorhead

There are some people who are smart, deep, or funny. There are not very many people that are all 3. Daniel is one of those people. His opinion, insight and humor have kept me coming back to his blog since I first visited earlier this year.

Once every hundred years the clock and calender line up sequentially from one to nine.

For me that happens in half an hour (12:24:56 on July 8th, 2009).

All that effort, and I actually didn't notice the moment. I was buying a beef and cheese at Taco Time.

Oh well, if I live another hundred years, I will pay more attention.

That happened this morning, too, eh?

There was a similar situation in '06 (01:02:03 04/05/06). I stayed up until 1 AM so I could post on the second. Had I been thinking, I could have just waited until 1 PM. But then someone might have beat me to it, and we can't have that.

I was going to make some disparaging rejoinder subtly mentioning that a six card flush is hardly comparable to nine flush, but I couldn't find a clever way to make it seem noble and not petty.

To be sure, it was probably your post that inspired me.

I won't deny that your hand is better. I'm humble that way, which is what makes me so great.
