Good Gravy.



Who does this look like shreding on the Les Paul

Point of Clarification. On the right side of my blog it says, "not THE CLAP!!!"

It occurs to me that out of context that could be taken in the wrong way.

So I'm going to clarify, point by point.

  1. I was at a lecture last night when we had a very long and sometimes standing ovation for my professor, Mark Davies, who was giving his final lecture as a professor at Regent College.
  2. As it went on, I started wondering to myself, "how does a long ovation (clap) like this ever come to an end. It seems like in theory, as people keep clapping other people keep clapping and it could concievably go on forever. But it usually doesn't.
  3. Thus I wrote, last night, "What causes a clap to end?"
  4. Then, this morning, I realized that could be taken the wrong way. In reponse I wrote, "not THE CLAP!!!"
  5. Meaning here to emphasize the word "the" I should have written, "not THE clap". When I read it how I originally wrote it I realized that it could easily be seen as coming out of nowhere, as in, "oh no! not the clap!!!"
  6. If read this way, I assume it would put all of you, the blog readers, in a state of curious confusion, "hmm, I wonder why dan just wrote that?"
  7. I don't want you in this state of curious confusion, and since I'm way too lazy to simply log into my twitter account and fix the feed post, you get this blog entry.
  1. Which, based on its logical flow and organized nature, I now assert that I am using it to prepare for my upcoming sytematic theology exam. I'm also trying to work on expressing things more clearly, because – obviously – that hasn't been going very well lately.

it looks like Les Paul!

oh, this made me laugh.

point-form is the best way to blog. it makes you look smart, succinct & still witty. also, it gives the illusion of busy-ness, but that you have taken time out for a brief but purposeful entry.
