Volatile, Historic Times and the Spider Who Doesn’t Care

Posted on June 29th, 2015 :: 3:52 pmSeptember 8th, 2017 :: 7:54 am by Greg

Righteous indignation on each side; blustery public diatribes backed by legal or biblical authority; verbal wars among foes and friends and family which take no idealogical prisoners—this seems to be the state of current events. But this tiny spider doesn’t seem to know, or care. She’s not angry, or justified, or changing the color of…

[RePost] D-Day: When Things Mattered

Posted on June 6th, 2014 :: 12:36 pm by Greg

Today is the 70th anniversary of D-Day. June 6th, 1944. The Allied invasion at Normandy, France, was a key point in World War II, and certainly worth commemorating. Below is an article I wrote a couple years ago, following our family’s own commemorating of the events of that day. It seemed a good way to…

Christians Being Christian

Posted on April 28th, 2014 :: 7:30 amApril 27th, 2014 :: 9:27 am by Greg

I am not very comfortable in “Christian” settings. For a long time now, I’ve said that I “don’t like Christians”, but that’s meant to be at least somewhat tongue-in-cheek. I know that Jesus is life, that there is no life outside of him; and for me, everything I do, and see, and experience runs through…

Who’s Your Favorite President?

Posted on February 16th, 2014 :: 10:05 pmFebruary 17th, 2014 :: 9:55 am by Greg

With today being Presidents’ Day, there has been some presidential talk in the Campbell home recently. Last night at dinner, in fact, one question asked of the children was, “Who is your favorite president?” The responses, which I clarified again this morning, were as follows: Cam, age 4 George Washington! (Said with staggering confidence!) Emma,…

[ThisDay] Sex Sells (Apparently)

Posted on January 31st, 2014 :: 6:30 amJanuary 29th, 2014 :: 2:02 pm by Greg

One of the posts that has received the most interaction was admittedly expected to attract some attention. I wasn’t just searching for website hits… rather, I was making a point. A fun night out with Emma at the mall turned into conversations about large images of ladies in their underwear—everywhere! That night I posted some…

[ThisDay] The Presidential Election of 2012

Posted on January 30th, 2014 :: 6:30 amJanuary 29th, 2014 :: 1:59 pm by Greg

Some posts here at GregsHead.net are visited many times every day. One of those posts was originally published on January 30th, 2005—nine years ago this day! But it’s not the one I chose to highlight today. (It certainly gets enough views on its own; if you’d like to read that short post about the word…

[ThisDay] Relating

Posted on January 26th, 2014 :: 6:30 amJanuary 21st, 2014 :: 5:17 pm by Greg

Only two posts were written on January 26th in all of the years of published words here at GregsHead.net. Two! That is interesting… but maybe even more interesting is that this day on the calendar is the very day that my Mum was born! Happy birthday, Mum! (We’re not British, so… well… I don’t know…

[ThisDay] Both Sides of the Story

Posted on January 20th, 2014 :: 6:30 amJanuary 19th, 2014 :: 10:26 pm by Greg

I had an intriguing idea today. “I wonder what I was thinking and writing on this day through the ten plus years I’ve been publishing stuff here? I wonder if it’s the same stuff I’m thinking in January of 2014?” Seemed like an interesting enough activity to share it here with you. (Hello, you!) For…

Coca-Cola vs. Chai Tea Latte

Posted on September 6th, 2013 :: 7:00 amSeptember 19th, 2017 :: 11:17 am by Greg

Just for fun today, let’s examine the nutritional benefits of two deliciously sweet beverages. The more common of these two is the drink which has been imbibed since the 19th century: Coca-Cola! And in the other corner, we have a newer phenomenon (at least, in the form we will examine): Chai Latte! This is probably…

Smart Phones, Not Smart?

Posted on September 4th, 2013 :: 7:00 amSeptember 3rd, 2013 :: 10:49 pm by Greg

Is it possible for smart phones to not be smart? Or is that up to us, and the way we employ them? Recently I had the opportunity to visit a Starbucks for a “Venti Chai Latte, no water” (my typical order) on not just one occasion, but three consecutive days! The combination of our son…
