So I am copying Katie....

Ok, so I am making a second attempt to start a blog....I am not afraid to admit that I am shamelessly following in the foot steps of my brilliant roommate Katie. She's not only positive and bossy, but also a trendsetter when it comes to shaping the culture of our house. Beyond that, I would like a place to externally process and share my thoughts as well as distract me from the more dull compulsions in my life such as video games and Wikipedia.

So, here I am. Besides, this is a great way to share my ultimately inconsequential though hopefully sometimes amusing or intriguing thoughts about life, liberty, and the pursuit.

Some topics I will try to cover:

• Politics (one of my first loves and passions)
• Faith (another of my first loves)
• Race and Racial Reconciliation (my cross to bear)
• The Human Condition (something I muse about perhaps too much)

While the above are my main topics of interest, I will likely cover:

• Life in Minneapolis-St. Paul (my adopted home and two favorite cities)
• Life Living with Four Women (the white sisters I never had but kinda always wanted)
• My Occassional Travels (both past and future)
• Urban Planning (what it seems God has shaped me take up as a vocation)
• Movies (yet another thing I love)
• Food and Cooking (another of my first loves...yeah I love a lot of things)

So I may stray from this stuff from time to time, but these two lists should cover it. I hope people out there find something thought provoking on here from time to time. Please feel free to past your thoughts.
