Making Up Lost Time... (part 2)
Written by John Pleasnick

Okay.  Continuing to make up for lost time, here's some links around the web that are worth checking out...

  •  If you've wanted to adhere to a bible reading schedule, Logos Bible Software has published a free tool to help you do just that.  It's the "Global Bible Reader" -- I particularly love that they offer the M'Cheyne schedule.  I've never succeeded with that one, but I've always felt it was the best!  Smiley
  • If you're a "Christian Music Only"-type person, please do not continue reading this bullet...  If you've continued, then you should really watch "What If the Beatles Were Irish?"
  • If you have kids that surf the web and you're not using some sort of parental control on the Internet, you should be.  For younger kids, Glubble seems like a really great one!  As one site said, "Rather than make a futile attempt at blocking everything bad on the internet, it uses a whitelist of sites that are ok for kids to see. It brings together a community of parents, allowing the user to set a pre-defined white list and even use the whitelists of other users."  (NOTE:  Glubble does require Firefox or Flock (alternative web browsers to Internet Explorer.)
  • This next one is now dated, but still worth reading.  CJ Mahaney has GREAT suggestions on how to redeem the SuperBowl (or any televised sporting event).  Oh, and here's a good one on how to use a remote control effectively  (by one of CJ's son-in-law's).
  • Last but not least (for this post)...I need to make sure that you've watched Tim Hawkins' "The HomeSchool Family" video.  Brilliant.
