merry new years

imagine my surprise when Christmas morning i discover that my parent's decided to buy me movies off my amazon wish list rather than books.

really?

call me crazy, but i thought NT Wright would beat out Bruce Willis any day... especially on Christmas. what can i say? the ripples ended up watching Die Hard 2: Die Harder Christmas afternoon. YIPPEE KI YAY!


come to find out, my parents did get me books... just as new year presents: 2 of NT's (i'm in a beautiful rut. we share a love of snorkeling). Rollin's How Not to Speak of God.

but the one i'm most excited about...




Rogue... yes!

Exploration... yes!

Hidden... yes!

Economics... ok?

i'm excited. and a complete dork.

I proved incapable of enduring the economics burden, but the Freakonomics blog was a wonderful for a few months in my life.
